3.7.0 - Lots of new features, Major bug fixes & More Colours
Release 3.7.0.zip
Install.zip
Update.zip
This release has a large amount of new features added, which are covered in the Settings Guide.
A short summary of features added are:
- Sorting channel videos into seasons based on the Year or the Month they were released. Important, for this to work you need to change the Plex Library setting for seasons to only hide single seasons, this is covered in the plex guide.
- Ability to change download server if you get a slow speed from NA
- Ability for format the filename with the date the video was released, thanks to @rob1998 for the sample code. Note this might break plex ordering so use at your own risk.
- Added ability to have the script auto repeat itself based of a user set time. You can either enable this or setup your own way of looping the script to have it run hourly etc.
- Integrated plex section rescan and metadata updating into the script to reduce disk usage from re-scanning every time the script runs to only when new videos are downloaded.
Below are the Major Bugs that have been fixed in this release:
- Finally fixed the session issue that has been around since 3.1.0, Anyone using forceLogin you should now be able to set this to false! Doing so will greatly improve script performance
- Fixed naming of episodes for plex where having multiple " - " after the season and episode numbers would break episode ordering. This will require a redownload of videos to fix previous episodes, and may cause the script to redownload videos that aren't downloaded using the new naming scheme.

I suggest double checking that everything is correctly updated in the settings.json though it should move your old settings over properly.
