[mythtv-users] Mythtv, Plex, and watched status

[Richard Shaw]

I'm curious as well. I haven't looked at Kodi yet, I'm using the mythlink
script to format symbolic links in the format that Plex likes. The only
problem is that if I have incomplete show data mythlink doesn't handle it
well and Plex doesn't pick it up.

I currently use a systemd service file and timer I'll paste here for
posterity in case anyone else finds it useful.

# /etc/systemd/system/mythlink.service
[Unit]
Description=Update symbolic links of recordings for Plex
After=mythbackend.service
Requisite=mythbackend.service

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/mythlink --link /var/lib/plexmediaserver/mythtv
--format "%%T - s%%sse%ep"

# /etc/systemd/system/mythlink.timer
[Unit]
Description=Timer for the mythlink service

[Timer]
#OnCalendar=*-*-* 00:00:00
OnCalendar=daily
#OnUnitActiveSec=1d

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Thanks,
Richard
