Dynamic channels
Basic idea:
- Configure some sort of "live" query
- Ex: Items in collection
- Ex: Plex search terms
- Ex: Simply saying "sync" on a given TV show
- Periodically scan Plex for new content and auto-add this content to an existing channel
- Recalculate the schedule when new content added
To anybody subscribed here: we're getting closer. There's been significant progress relating to scanning and searching media, available on our alpha channel. From there we'll rework scheduling to allow for dynamism
I love this idea. Just throwing an idea out there. I wouldn't even need it to update the EPG necessarily. It would be totally fine if I could create a custom show or time slot that used the dynamic query behind the scenes (e.g. Music Videos 1pm-5pm).

Thank you for the update! Think I'll check out Alpha just for this! Do you have ways of providing feedback?
