Please consider an enhancement request to automatically download newly added TV shows that exist in user's favorites list if this is possible with the Plex framework.

you will still have to access the channel, there's no nice way for channels to schedule jobs like this, but this feature is in the works

@karmadelic702 You can have a windows task check for updates automatically. I set this up this weekend and it works.

Can you please share details? I am curious how you accomplished this. I run a MacOS server. Would be interesting to see if there are similarities in the approach which could be duplicated.

I have it set up on a windows PC, maybe you could use the same method. I created a batch file to open a web browser on the server running plex with the ss-plex channel installed. With the RED-404 version an option is available under favorites to "watch later new releases". I got the link info and added it to the batch file. When the file was completed I created a task to run the file every 15 minutes. So every 15 minutes windows opens IE (minimized) and navigates to the address and opens the link to download. After 30 seconds IE is forced closed having already triggered the download.
