Why did the ability to Watch Playlists Together go away?
Why did the ability to Watch Playlists Together go away?
In January and February I had curated some playlists and shared them with friends and we watched them together via Watch Together. There was previously an option to Grant Access to the playlist, and after granting access, you could click Watch Together and start a watch party.
However, sometime in the last few weeks this option has disappeared in playlists, and now I am restricted to granting access, but not being able to watch together.
Really the only people who have access to my server is my partner and three friends. This has been a huge bummer, because I was curating old shows complete with old commercials in between.
If anyone has info on why this changed, I'd love to have an understanding, because the change kind of blows...
This probably doesn't help, but I use watch together by going to the individual episode and clicking it there. Of course, for a playlist or TV show that means you have to click it for every individual episode.
In my opinion, since it stopped working entirely, any and all help is appreciated. So cheers and thanks for the suggestion.

Theres an *arr relative that allows you to craft channels from your media and use the Plex live TV system to display the channels in the EPG. Although I don't remember what it was called at the moment and I don't know if it handles commercials, but it's on my backlog somewhere...
Hey, at least it's a place to start looking, thanks! I've been avoiding the whole *arr ecosystem because I'm lazy dammit and already have a backlog of too many personal network projects I fail to commit the time and effort to. This may be the final push to give in, but we'll see haha.
I think you'll be happy with the *arrs. They're easy to set up, highly automated and a great way to collect media.
