Enable the holy grail, fully complete the addition of TV Shows. Very complex interaction because of the large number of files needing to be renamed, so a pattern must be applied to make it easy to do. In addition to the video files, the subtitle files must be a part of this process. With the complexity of applying the pattern, it'll be crucial to be able to preview the naming and make individual adjustments if needed.

Ideas:

• multi-selector fields
  • Only handle one season at a time, picking the episodes for the season
• handle array of bindings to dynamically generate a list of form fields.
  • another possibility for handling bindings
• After getting show information, attempt a full rename based of mostly standardized sXXeXX.

Currently, progress circle does nothing different if at 100%. It should show some kind of checkmark to distinguish complete from incomplete states.

For both refreshing the Addition list, as well as adding new Additions, they should be mapped to reasonable shortcuts.

• cmd R for "Refresh Additions"
• cmd N for "New Addition"

Ideas:

• SarunW
• ItNext
• Apple Docs

Can be potentially super easy by using new Xcode features.

Password auto-fill doesn't work correctly right now because the app does not mention what domain it is being associated with. If that can be figured out, then 1Password and native auto-fill should be able to surface the correct account info. The account info would be the same as the admin interface.

This work should not be done until SirSeim/bakus-service#39 is either done or decided not to be done.

While the Addition list is populating properly, the progress circle is not being set properly.

Once an Addition has completed downloading, be able to initiate a flow to complete it's addition to the library.

Steps to complete:

1. First action is to decide that this Addition is a movie. Other types will get their own flows appropriate to them.
2. For movies, establishing the title and year are core to the rename, that should be established first. Plex has recommendations on how this should work.
3. Categorize the subtitle files properly. For each subtitle, a language needs to be associated to it. Use ISO 639-1 codes. Plex has recommendations on how this should work.
4. Handle any remaining video files as extras. Plex has recommendations on how this should work.
5. See a summary of the full list of file renaming that will occur, along with the confirm button that will carry out the changes.

It is assumed this will be a multi-view flow for the user. Until the final confirm button is hit, the user should always be able to go backwards in the flow to correct any mistakes. For now, images and other files should be ignored. They will not end up in the final rename.

Once the UX has been established, then the Bakus Service endpoint can be defined to carry out the process.

Be able to delete additions through swipe actions, contextual menus, and maybe a button.

Setup ability to:

• Login
• View account
• Logout (including logout all)

Minor improvement. The dropdown menu to start the renaming process looks a bit bland without any icons next to the options. Add some easy system icons to make it nicer.

• movieclapper for movie renaming
• play.tv for tv renaming

Featurettes should be any video file that isn't the main movie file. This means that when the main file is changed, the list of available featurettes should change.

Plex docs on renaming files for featurettes.

Some UX ideas:

• The UX should allow the option to not include a specific video file as a featurette
• Each featurette gets a title and type. The type options are listed in the Plex docs.

It should now be called Bakus Addition as a result of naming limitations.

The app should not be allowed to get stuck if the token expires. It should handle that gracefully. Anytime an expired token or logged out state is detected, It should pop up the profileSheet to start the login process.

In addition, network errors should handled by popping up an alert saying what sort of error occurred. Some ideas:

• attach error view handling to all views
• attach alert pop up to each view individually

Get a push notification when an addition completes downloading. This will need to be enabled per device.

Stop linking up to dev server. Production is now stable enough that we can use it regularly.

Turns out it's difficult to set the year for a tv show. Unlike movies, that is not typically part of the addition name, or it could even be the year of the season rather than the year the whole show started.

Some ideas on how to resolve:

• Add help text to clarify that it's the year for the whole show
• Give option to pick from an existing show already added. This would also solve the issue of spelling mistakes when adding multiple seasons, especially if done over long periods of time.
• Integrate with an online tv database to search for shows. That way the year will be automatically populated.

Have main branch auto build and submit to App Store Connect for both iOS and macOS.

Ideas:

• Tutorial

Setup button and view to add a new addition from a magnet link.
Remove the existing refresh button and put the add button instead.

Assuming the server could have the logic to determine a time estimate, that should be passed onto the AdditionDetail to show to the user either below the percentage or instead of. Do some rounding so you show only days, or hours, or minutes. Single point precision is more than good enough for what we're using this for.

Reviewing with users, a couple things came up about edit-ability:

• Original name fields are helpful, but not clear they are not editable in comparison to title and year fields that are
• File picker wasn't obviously editable
• On summary page, not clear final name is editable
  • maybe we don't really need this for movies
• subtitle section having white backgrounded "None" is fine since it's separate
• Should have "Delete Untouched Files" toggle defaulted on
  • list of those files should not denote edit-ability, just the toggle

Either for language reasons, or because the file doesn't apply to the current movie, a subtitle as part of an addition may be desired to be ignored from the list of files being renamed.

Interface wise, this feels like checkboxes being shown on each row, each checked by default. Unchecking it will mean it will not be included in the rename. Probably should add some helper text to make this clear.

Tap on an Addition to see details for it. Most unique part is to see the list of files with some indication of what file type they are.

If an endpoint returns some kind of error, that should be shown in the interface in a standardized way.

Mainly thinking about:

• Refreshing the list
• Account page
• Login page
• Add page
