plex-auto-languages's Issues

Initial scan taking a long time... can we have a cache file?

The newest version of Plex-Auto-Languages does an initial scan of all episodes when it launches. According to the log it should take "a few seconds." I have close to 400k episodes in my library, and this scan takes upwards of 10 minutes. Would it be possible to cache some of this information so that a full scan isn't required every time it launches?

Managed Accounts

Doesn't seem to work with managed accounts ie, Plex Home users.

Issue on Container Startup

I'm having an issue when starting the container even though I wasn't in the past. I've changed no configurations in PAL inbetween.

Only change the subtitle if the Subtitle language exists

Example:
Season 1
Available Languages: English
Season 2
Available Languages: English, Japanese

If you go to season to and change the subtitle language to Japanese it makes it so that Season 1 gets no subtitle language. It makes things a pain when you have different releases for some shows with multiple seasons. Ideally you'd be able to change the entire show's subtitles (and when you make a change in the season that's different it wouldn't wipe the old settings due to the language not existing.)

'latin-1' codec can't encode characters in position 1-2

not functional since the last update.

I just updated to the latest build posted. Now when I try to run, it crashes immediately with the following output:

Ignored type of subtitle chosen ( favoured forced ), possibly malformed subtitles

Hi, I notice an unexpected behaviour in this situation:
In a certain TV Series the first episode has those subtitles

If I select the Italian srt, when I go to the second episode the subtitles selected track is the Italian forced one.

But I notice that the subtitles are little different each other, in the second episode, it has the "SUB ITA" description, it should be the problem, because if I set the subtitles in the second episode it will go ok with the next episodes

Is this behaviour already known? Thanks

Plex Token as Docker secret

Usually the standard is to provide a direct environment variable for the secret

secrets:
  plex_token:
    file: <docker_dir>/secrets/plex_token

plex-auto-languages:
    image: remirigal/plex-auto-languages:latest
    container_name: pal
    secrets:
      - plex_token
    environment:
      TZ: $TZ
      PLEX_URL: <plex_url>
      PLEX_TOKEN_FILE: /run/secrets/plex_token

This is minor, in my opinion, but would be better than assuming the filename/location.

More importantly I'm getting an error when using the token as described:

It seems it's perhaps not being parsed correctly from the file?

[Enhancement] Add processing thread

The websocket thread listening for events is currently blocked during the requests to the Plex server, which can lead to loss of messages when the number of events and/or users is large.

The solution to tackle this issue would be to improve the way messages are handled by creating a new thread dedicated to HTTP requests.

Add health checks + kubernetes liveness/readiness probes

It would be great to have at least one HTTP endpoint that we can use for a health check at deployment.

Could be as simple as:

@app.route('/healthz')
def live():
  return "Live!"

@app.route('/readyz')
def ready():
  return "Ready!"

after config is loaded. (example is using flask)

PAL dies without connection to Plex

I know this feature was supposed to add resiliency if Plex is down - #40

But it seems like either there is a code bug or it still dies after a certain number of attempts:

Docker Unexpected connection lost to Plex

Hello,

I installed the docker yesterday but it seems that it's losing connection to the Plex server regularly.
Here's a snippet of the logs:

It will only briefly have connection to the Plex server before having a Connection Error.
I'm not sure what I might have done wrong, I setup he docker image on windows 10 with the following command:
docker run -v "C:\docker config\autolangaugesplex":/config --name PlexAutoLanguages -e TZ=America/Toronto remirigal/plex-auto-languages:latest

And finally here are my config.yaml settings for the Plex URL:

  # Plex configuration
  plex:
    # A valid Plex URL (required)
    url: "http://192.168.2.39:32400/"
    # A valid Plex Token (required)
    token: "gWjbP3a4GeJVNFxq9-aY"

Let me know if more details are required. Thanks!

Only works on web-based clients

I tried four clients so far and only the web-based ones work:

Web App: works
Windows App: works
iOS: doesn't work
Roku: doesn't work

Thanks!

Plex added something like this

Just wanted to say that plex just added something like this but I personally will continue to use plex auto languages as this is a more streamlined approach imo. Thank you for making this tool!

"All / Next" setting doesn't work

The setting doesn't work for me. It always changes all the episodes in the entire season/show even if I put "next" in the config file.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apprise'

I've tried running this in a venv, but it doesn't find apprise, even though all requirements are installed in the venv.
Also, does this have to run as sudo?

Any help much appreciated :)

[Enhancement] Improve notification system

The current notification system can result in a lot of notifications for people having a lot of users on their servers.

Possible improvements:

As suggested in #26, notifications for newly added episodes should not be sent per-user.
Improve the configuration and add Apprise configs for specific users, something like this:

notifications:
  enable: true
  apprise_configs:
    - "spush://apikey"
    - urls:
        - "discord://webhook_id/webhook_token"
        - "pover://user@token"
      users:
        - "MyUsername"
        - "MyUser1"
    - urls:
        - "gotify://hostname/token"
      users:
        - "MyUser2"

I'm open to feedback and suggestions !

Don't log plex token

Upon launch, the app spits out the plex token in plain text. It would be great if it didn't do that, for obvious security reasons.

Error whenever I change subtitles on an episode

I'm trying to get Plex-Auto-Languages to work with my setup. I installed via Docker. Every time I turn on subtitles on an episode, the Docker logs show a crash/traceback. Here is the traceback:

2022-04-22 19:08:23,227 [ERROR] Unable to process play session

  File "/app/utils/plex.py", line 72, in match_audio_stream
    if reference.title <= stream.title:
TypeError: '<=' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'str'

I should mention, although I installed via Docker, my Plex install is native. So in the config.yaml file, I used the reverse proxy URL for my Plex server. I'm not sure if this is a valid configuration.

[Feature Request] More flexibility for which notifications are sent

Right now, while you can choose which users to get notifications for, it will still send notifications in any event that PAL modifies languages/subs. This means that if it is watching for new episodes or file changes, any such event will trigger PAL which will then send a condensed notification that the episode was changed for all users. This isn't particularly useful and creates a lot of noise.

Ideally, there is a way to subscribe to only "active" triggers, e.g. plays or I guess any activity if so configured for the user. I would also want notifications for changes made during the scheduled run if enabled, but you could bifurcate those out if you want more flexibility as well. But from my usecase, the main goal is to suppress the new episode/file change notifications

Thanks!

Forced Subtitles being reset

I noticed that when I grabbed the Boys, with PAL set to work on new files and episodes, it seems to have reset the forced subtitles and turned them off. I believe Plex sets Forced Subs on by default, so this seems like it is happening due to PAL's behavior of setting default tracks for new items.

EDIT: I think this might be related to #17 ? If the first episode did not have a forced subtitle track, then does PAL set preferences to no subs for all subsequent episodes? If a future episode does have that track then, it will be deselected because the preferences were determined by the first episode's tracks?

Cannot run on FreeBSD

Currently this cannot be ran on FreeBSD as in get_data_directory() in the file plex_auto_languages/utils/configuration.py will return a None object as sys.platform will return freebsd13 which does not match any of the current checks

Official list of supported devices

The feedback from Plex is not consistent between devices. This purpose of this thread is to have an updated list of supported devices based on your feedbacks, I will try to update this list regularly so do not hesitate to share your experience.

Client	Trigger on Play	Trigger on Activity
Web App	Yes	Yes
Plex for Windows	Yes	Yes
Android Phone App	Yes	No
Android TV App	Yes	No
Kodi Addon for Android TV	Yes	?
Amazon Firestick 4K	Yes	No
Apple TV App	Yes	?
Infuse App on Apple TV	Yes	No
Infuse App on macOS	Yes	No
iOS App	No	Inconsistent
Plex for Samsung	Yes	Inconsistent

To check if a device supports Trigger on Play or Trigger on Activity, follow this procedure:

Enable debug mode by adding debug: true to the configuration file
Enable the trigger you wish to test by setting trigger_on_xxxx to true
Start PlexAutoLanguages
For Trigger on Play, start watching an episode on the client you wish to test
If you see a log similar to this, Trigger on Play is supported:
[DEBUG] [Play Session] Session: 4 | State: 'playing' | User id: 1 | Episode: <Episode:23268:The-Crown-s04e09>
For Trigger on Activity, browse episodes of the Plex library on the client you wish to test
If you see a log similar to this, Trigger on Activity is supported:
[DEBUG] [Activity] User: xxx | Episode: <Episode:23268:The-Crown-s04e09>

Episodes will randomly change language when paused, and crash stream

I've had this happen to me a few times, but basically what goes on is when I pause an episode or even minimize it to look at the episode details it'll change to another language.

I.E. Having an anime set to be Japanese with subtitles, and then it turns the audio to English and removes subs and crashes the stream when I attempt to change it back.

Not sure what exactly is causing this but it's pretty annoying.

High CPU usage when Plex is detecting intros

For some reason I'm getting very high CPU usage when Plex is doing a large scan and detecting intros on newly added media. Running the command docker stats -a was showing 60% under CPU % for plex-auto-languages alone. Stopping and restarting the container reset things and CPU usage when down to less than 1%. Anyone else seen this? Configuration file options were left at defaults. This is running in docker on win10.

Cannot connect to plex server

Hi,
I've been trying out this via docker (Synology Nas) and managed to install it, but looking at the logs it just says ConnectionError: unable to connect to plex server, retrying

The only thing I added in the config is PLEX_URL and PLEX_TOKEN

Let me know if you need any other info

I have a registered domain name that I host all of my local services on in the form <service.domain.tld>. Since the logs show PAL connecting to my Plex server as me, I don't think this is the problem. Also, I specifically turned debug on for diagnosing this issue but it doesn't seem to have added any detail about what the unexpected error was.

Notifications Showing `None` for User

I have notifications set up and they seem to be working correctly. Except, whenever one of my home users (not managed) starts watching a show the notification looks as follows:

PlexAutoLanguages - Futurama
Show: Futurama
User: None
Audio: English (EAC3 Stereo)
Subtitles: English (SRT)
Updated episodes: 1/124 (S01E01 - S07E26)

Initial scan not completing

Upon starting the PAL container I see the following in the logs repeated without ever seeing scan activity in Plex or the creation of a cache file.

2022-06-17 13:35:56,278 [INFO] Scanning all episodes from the Plex library, this action should only take a few seconds but can take several minutes for larger libraries

[Feature Request] Update new files as they are added

I am not sure if this increases the scope or complexity of the app, but I noticed PlexAutoLanguages works super well when I have a full season/show available on Plex. However, for currently airing items, it doesn't track new files as they are added to Plex. There are two scenarios

A completely new episode is added
An existing episode file is upgraded. Let's take a scenario where I am watching an anime. I have subbed releases, but they are being replaced by dual audio files as those are released, which usually lag behind by a few weeks. If I play the first dual audio release using the dub tracks, it won't find those dubbed tracks for the rest of the season, but as a new dual audio file is added, those tracks could now theoretically be selected.

I realize this may not be easy to do. Currently, it seems you are just updating the languages given a trigger, so you don't need to keep track of the sub/language selection beyond the update. But in this scenario, if a new file is added, you would need to A) know the file is added which includes both as new episodes as well as replacements of existing files and B) know which tracks to select

However, I figured I would create a GHI to at least initiate the discussion

Can we update the notification to provide details of language/subtitle changes.
Language: English -> Korean
Subtitle: None -> English

[ERROR] Connection to the Plex server failed for user

For some reason there are regular connection errors for the shared users in my plex home in the logs.
Although this is not always the case, as it shows that there have been language changes for some.

I set up the Docker container on the same windows machine my plex server runs on. I used the Docker compose minimal configuration.
I have attached some log files, maybe you understand where these errors are coming from. Also attached the yaml file (as a .txt file as github doesnt let you upload yaml files).

I was able to trigger language changes remotely with the android app on my phone over the mobile network.
Most other users access the server remotely.

Best Regards.

EDIT: Okay, seems i only get errors now altthough as you can see in the attached picture there is one time when the app changed the language settings for one user

ConnectionError: Unable to connect to plex server, retrying...

Tried both http://IP:32400 and http://nas_url:32400 but issue persist. Any ideas on what I didn't set up correctly that's causing this issue?

Runnning when plex restarts/updates

right now it just closes the cmd window without much luck. I've tried making a task in task scheduler windows still sees it at running despite not running.

[Enhancement] Retrieve updated episodes the same way as added episodes.

Rebuilding the entire library cache every time an episode is updated is slow, I looked into it and it appears that updated episodes can be fetched the same way as added episodes by changing the addedAt to updatedAt here:

Plex-Auto-Languages/plex_auto_languages/plex_server.py

Line 67 in 2de8298

 recent = section.searchEpisodes(sort="addedAt:desc", filters={"addedAt>>": f"{minutes}m"}) 

Not sure if you knew this was possible, it seems to work fine but I haven't done any real testing.

Not sure what else the cache is actually used for but it seems that it is pretty much useless now? Would be worth removing to save some small amount of memory.

The newly_added and newly_updated lists could also be made irrelevant by caching the time of the latest added/updated item and only processing items added/updated after then.

Docker image compatible with Rasperry Pi (arm) 32bits and 64bits

All is in the title. I'm running docker on a rpi with raspianOS 64bits version. I've seen on the DockerHub there is only amd64 images. Is-it difficult to provide such an image (I'm a noob on docker so I don't how much work it represents) ?

Thank you for your time and your work.

Ignore series?

There's a few series that I have that aren't super consistent with their subtitle naming or have different named japanese/english tracks (even though there's just 1) confuses the hell out of the program.

Any suggestions?

Multiple Plex Servers?

Does this application support multiple Plex servers in a single container? Whether it be by the following options or some other way.

Entering multiple Plex Tokens & URL’s to the config file.
Mounting multiple volumes for each individual config file each with its own Plex Token & URL.
Adding multiple Plex Tokens & URL's as environment variables.

If not, then I’d like to suggest it be possible to do. (Enhancement)

JSONDecodeError when launching the container

Hello, I'm getting a JSONDecodeError that seems to have something to do with grabbing either the plex.url, plex.token, or notifier. My config.yaml was working fine awhile back, not sure what changed. I have tried checking that my token is correct, and tried multiple plex urls. Nothing has fixed the issue. Any help would be much appreciated, I've found this tool invaluable for watching shows with poorly labelled subtitles.

My container version tag is latest, my plex version is 1.31.3.6868.

Here's the log containing the error.

Read timeout error

Is this project being developed any more? It's fantastic when it works, but I'm finding that I am getting fairly regular read timeouts where it seems like pal loses its connection with Plex.

requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout: HTTPConnectionPool(host='127.0.0.1', port=32400): Read timed out. (read timeout=30)

It would be great if pal could somehow survive these timeouts, because when it happens, I end up having to restart the service. If it could just pick up again once the connection is resumed, that would be great.
