WebTools.bundle VS Absolute-Series-Scanner

The old WebTools isn't something you open in Plex itself, you have to go to http://[your-pms-server-ip-address]:33400. That said, what exactly are you trying to use it for? Chances are there are other ways to do it that don't involve using an unmaintained plugin.

As far as Plex goes, the app is apparently going to be removing plugins completely in the near future, so trying to develop a plugin for it definitely seems to be a lost cause now.

I'm not sure if WebTools-NG makes it easier to install plugins. The no-longer-maintained WebTools.bundle did via the Unsupported App Store, but even then it's not a requirement for installing plugins, as it can be done manually as well. Not to mention that pretty much the only plugins that still work with full functionality are metadata agents/scanners.

Yeah, the old plugin-based version is still around and offered similar functionality, but with plugins being deprecated, WebTools moved to a standalone service.

Sorry, but since plugin's are been depreciated ( Ref: https://www.plex.tv/blog/subtitles-and-sunsets-big-improvements-little-housekeeping/ ) the UAS is sadly dead, which I also announced on the webtools.bundle github repo a long time ago

If that's not the case and they're just disappearing completely, then you might have to resort to tools outside of Plex to find what's not getting scanned in. There used to be a Find Media tool that was part of WebTools, but it apparently doesn't work anymore (probably because Plugins were deprecated almost 4 years ago now, so most are broken). If you're comfortable running a random Python script from someone on the internet, I created this script several weeks ago that can scan your local folders and compare it against what Plex shows in your library. It's not pretty and was written quickly, but should get the job done.

Here are some plugins on the forum: https://forums.plex.tv/c/third-party/plugins/19. Unsupported AppStore comes with WebTools and as far as I know can still be installed (https://github.com/ukdtom/WebTools.bundle/wiki/Install).

There's also the FindMedia module of WebTools, though there have been some reports of it not working anymore.

I have Plex linked to ZeroQI's YouTube-Agent.bundle and ZeroQI's Absolute Series Scanner.

More info here

you have to use "Absolute Series Scanner" with "Youtube Series" agent. Both of them are available on GitHub.

You need something like https://github.com/ZeroQI/Absolute-Series-Scanner

jokes aside, as why to it might be a hit and miss with the ordering using hama: afaik when the anime only has one season info is being pulled from anidb, as where to when it has multiple it pulls from tvdb by default. im not the biggest fan of absolute ordering but where i did it (naruto and bleach for example) it does work. ASS has a table on how to force it.

If you have an Anime library, you really need to be using HAMA/ASS.
