pseudotv VS dizqueTV-scripts

PseudoTV

There have been a number of attempts to modernize it, like this one: https://github.com/DEFENDORe/pseudotv

One of there early builds of pseudotv only worked on Plex playlists and would update the playlist after a certain amount of time. Any playlists in your Plex library with a "Summary" starting with "pseudotv" would be added as a channel. Worked pretty decent with Plex's smart playlist feature. https://github.com/DEFENDORe/pseudotv/tree/ff808b419e0d65c08234bbe91547658946ba6d95

I followed the directions from github to set up scripts that updated based on playlists. Then i set up the playlists to remove content watched within a certain time period. Finally, I set up an automated task to run the scripts over night so each day I would know with certainty nothing i recently watched would come up

You might want to take a look at the scripts - and API that nwithan8 created. These can be used to update channel content from your Plex playlists, as well as other channel customization.

There’s a set of scripts which you can use to update channels periodically: https://github.com/nwithan8/dizqueTV-scripts

""" DizqueTV scripts created by nwithan8 (https://github.com/nwithan8/dizqueTV-scripts) Copy all items from a Plex playlist to an existing dizqueTV channel. Refreshes the channel (removes all existing programs, re-adds new items)
