Gay Video Data Scrape for Plex Media Server
-
I recently Installed Plex Media Server to use with my Apple TV and I was disheartened to learn that there aren't any reliable Gay Adult Media Film Agents to auto-populate film data/movie covers.
The only thing I could find on the subject was here:
https://forums.plex.tv/index.php/topic/29164-help-adult-film-agent-movie-mountain-gay-straight/?hl=gayIt seems he never completed or abandoned the project. Any scripting gurus want to pick up where he left off?

I know that this is not a direct solution, but I wanted to offer it in case a Plex Plugin doesn’t surface soon.
My solution would be to use XBMC to build your porn library and metadata. They have an adult plugin repository (https://github.com/xbmc-adult/xbmc-adult) which includes a scrapper that uses AEBN’s gay movie section. That would probably be the largest gay porn database for pulling metadata. Depending on your specific tastes in porn, it may not be terribly successful.
From there, you can export the metadata from XMBC to Plex. Use this link for reference: https://forums.plex.tv/index.php/topic/38402-metadata-agents-for-exported-xbmc-library/

Has anyone tried this recently? I know meta agents stop working when the scrape sites change. Has someone been keeping the agent up to date?
Who has found the effort required worth the metadata added?
I LOVE how Plex show my movies and TV Shows, music is OK (fracking 'feat.' songs…) but porn is so-so but better then clicking through file names.
Having the studio, actor, scene, description and cover art would be very cool.
What is the point of a porn collection if you can't show it off, if even just to yourself?

There hasn't been an update on this for quite a while. Wonders if anybody has had success auto-populating metadata for their gay porn Plex library in the last 4 years.

Sadly it is what happens when a project gets little attention and contributors. OSMC seems to work well, but only on original content. Scrapers check md5sum, which of course is going to be very different on content that has been distributed many times over before arriving here. For the sake of data preservation I do think it is a good idea, you will need interest in the project to improve the database, however…

I found an updated scraper, and posted about it in a new topic linked above. Let me know if you need any help in installing the agents!
