Add Plex Discover Support

[fscorrupt]

Can you add support for Plex Discover ?

Hi @fscorrupt, can you describe the kind of support you are looking for ? I just want to be sure to understand the use case you have in mind.

[fscorrupt]

Hey, yeah sure.
with the new discover feature you can now search in plex for every movie/show, even if its not in your lib, it would be nice to have plugin support on the discovery page to make requests directly from plex web.

This indeed seems like a useful feature for the extension, I will have a look and let you know !

Love this idea btw :)

I've added Plex Discover support in the version v1.3.0 of the extension. Please try it out and let me know if everything works as expected. Enjoy ! 😃

[fscorrupt]

wow, that was fast 😅
will have a look tomorrow!
thanks

[fscorrupt]

hey, played a bit today works really well!
But i found a Show that does get request as another one..

[RemiRigal]

This one was a tough one as Plex uses its own identifiers for movies and tv shows so I was using a title based search that can lead to mismatches like the one you mentioned.
After some experiments I found a way to extract the TMDB id from Plex and it seems to do the trick. If any of you can give me some feedback it would be great, thank you in advance ! (Make sure your extension is updated to v1.3.1 beforehand)

[fscorrupt]

thanks again for the fast fix, I will test it intensively in the next few days! Rg

[fscorrupt]

tried a bit with version 1.3.2.
i get on every show and movie media not found.

@fscorrupt I can't reproduce the issue on my end. Can you give me the following information:

• The complete URL of the page (The one for the Outer Range for example)
• Whether or not the attribute src of the image in top right corner (your user avatar) has the string X-Plex-Token in it. You can check that by "inspecting" the element in your browser, right click + 'inspect' should work on most browsers.

Thank you !

[fscorrupt]

this is the complete Url: OuterRange

and i have X-Plex-Token with my token in it.

Fixed it with adding my server ip to custom server access url. it now works without problems. Thanks again!
