Script to auto remove movies from Plex
If you want to use the built in Plex auto delete for TV shows check out this script https://github.com/Casvt/Plex-scripts/blob/main/changing_settings/plex_auto_delete.py. It changes the built in Plex setting for TV shows to auto remove watched episodes up to 1 week after it's marked as watched. The script itself doesn't delete anything it's all handled by Plex which is nice.

Add sub-folders automatically to a playlist?
Update: Found these:https://www.reddit.com/r/PleX/comments/pbwf41/comment/hag32ge/?utm_medium=web2x&utm_source=share&context=3 which resulted in https://github.com/Casvt/Plex-scripts/blob/main/playlist_collection/sub_folder_playlists.py

Shuffle Tv Shows in order
A resident Python person was doing script requests, and I had them create a script that does exactly this: https://github.com/Casvt/Plex-scripts/blob/main/playlist_collection/rolling_tv_channel.py

Yet Another Multiple Versions Question
If you wanna go for the first method, add a custom skip to check resolution of the file grabbed and add a “4k” tag. Then on your Radarr 1080p instance only import items with the 4k tag and download compressed 1080p. You can use https://github.com/Casvt/Plex-scripts/blob/main/sonarr/root_folder_tagger.py as a starting point for the script. Let me know if you prefer this method and can or can’t figure out the scripting, I’d like something similar myself.

Python script to set all movies and shows in Plex to use English non forced subtitles. Created with the help of AI. (Updated and working)
This script is confirmed tested and working. Feel free to use this code for your own purposes. I will be running this code periodically on my home server along with some of my other neat little plex scripts like Plex Auto Delete. Thanks to all who helped! If you use this script and run into any bugs feel free to leave a comment. Cheers!

Python code to set all movies and shows in Plex to use English non forced subtitles (created with AI in less than 10 seconds)
This is code that I've been wanting to write for some time now but I kept putting it off. The reason I needed this code is because Plex sets subtitles to English Forced by default. I prefer to have regular non forced subtitles. ChatGPT wrote this code for me in Python using PlexApi that I'm gonna try out later when I'm home on my computer. If anything needs to be changed I can go back to my chat and tell it to modify the code again. My plan is to add this code to run alongside my other python scripts that I use with Plex in windows (like Plex Auto Delete). Just imagine what else AI can do for us! If this script is something you might be into feel free to modify and try it out yourself!

What do you think of a plex intros indexer ?
There are tools to import markers such as IntroEditorForPlex or some scripts such as intro_marker_editor.

Playlists need to be improved.
Oh shit! I never even bothered to look because I asked a long time ago and was given and emphatic no. It looks like there is a playlist class. So I'll have to play with that and see what it can do.

Automating Plexamp: Play a random album from a collection (details in a comment)
I wanted a way to pick a random album from a collection and tell the Plexamp client connected to my speakers to play it. I wrote a detailed post about a simple way and a fancy way to do this using the unofficial Python Plex library.

Is there a scan feature like the way car radios work?
There's no in the box option for that, but you can easily make something that can do it with things like the python plex api. Get random movie, send play command with offset for some random point. Sleep some random amount of time. Send a stop command and repeat the previous steps.

Plex playlist content to watchlist in bulk
You should look into the python PlexAPI wrapper library. Here is an equivalent script using PlexAPI.

Network activity keeps PC Awake
I am not sure if there is an official way most people do this, but I think the best bet would be to use data directly from plex - https://python-plexapi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/server.html#plexapi.server.PlexServer.sessions to loop through every so often and get a list of current sessions (currently playing media). Once that goes empty start a timer for shutdown. If a session starts again end the shutdown, you could even look at to see if something is "paused" and have a different shutdown time for paused vs nothing playing if you really wanted.
