Request the remaining episodes

[isaiahgoveait]

Hello,

When creating Trakt lists for Sonarr specifically, I have these lists only upload the 1st episode (pilot episode) to my Plex library. [Here is my current design process so you can follow what I am asking more clearly. For the Trakt pilot episodes lists, I have these episodes organized by a tag called 'pilots' and a specific folder called 'pilots' for Plex library; separating tv shows from pilots folder.] This way I can be more conservative on storage usage, simply because not all of my friends may like or want to watch the shows uploaded via Trakt list.

So what I am asking of the Overseerr dev team is if my friends like the show enough after the pilot episode, they are able to request on Overseerr for the "REMAINING" remainder of that 1st season, (a trigger to scan the entire 1st season to ensure if there is more than just the pilot episode, then starting to pull the remainder of the season.)

I only ask this because this current design does not work as needed for my use case. What is happening is if Overseerr sees media from plex library is shows it as "requested", which prevents any further requesting, it's greyed out. There should be an ability to still (request, scan, detect remaining missing episodes) even though there is only a pilot episode in that Season Folder. I would like to speak for us all as we like to keep the entire setup as automated as possible for our friends 24/7.

This is a win-win because it will not only save more on storage space but keep out unwanted shows nobody wants to watch off the Plex platform over time.

Thanks!
