mzalewski 0 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Hi I've been working on a channel plugin today that uses the Trakt API to display trending TV shows. I've got it partly working - each item shows up as a folder, but it's not picking up any TVDB info even though I am providing the Id. Each folder should be detected as a series. I've tried looking through the source code, as well as looking at existing plugins, but I can't seem to find anything that helps.Is it possible to return a list of ChannelItemInfo objects that will be detected as a TV Series and have the metadata refreshed automatically? The only thing I can think of is to create a new ChannelManager but this seems overkill Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37272 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Hi, welcome. I will add two new ChannelFolderTypes, Series and Season. That will allow the channel items to get converted into regular tv objects. We haven't done this with channels yet, so I'm sure more will probably be needed, but it's the first step. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzalewski 0 Posted June 24, 2016 Author Share Posted June 24, 2016 Great, thanks. I've managed to work around it for now, but the additional types will definitely make things a lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
