TV content (as TV series) being ignored by PSDLE?

[ghost]

Hi, i usually get only gaming-related content on my PSN account, i also have like THREE movie trailes and they do appear in the results of the PSDLE list (duplicated, because of SD/HD formats)

Now i've just discovered that the series "Powers" has been finally released, for free (at least for PS+ users) in EU regions, after months of waiting. So i decided to grab all episodies, because i said, who cares, it's free. The problem is, these things are omitted from the list generated by PSDLE. Could you please add support to TV series in PSDLE? Thank you.

ps: i perfectly understand that these are not games or DLC, but like i said, movie trailers (and i guess movies, too, since they should appear under the same "category" in the Download List when you browse them from PC) are NOT omitted from PSDLE. It's been like that for ages.

ps2: just checked from my PS3 and all episodes of that series appear in my Download List.

TV content (as TV series) being ignored by PSDLE?

As for this question itself, yes. Specifically around this line.
It tries to support non-game content, but it's disabled internally.
Disabling that should include all video content as well (instructions below).

However, as you pointed out PSDLE seems intended for games but that is not the real answer.
PSDLE is more oriented towards the systems (PS3/4/Vita) to tie everything together.

Video content may work "out of the box" but since PSDLE only cares about the systems you'd be limited to those and wouldn't get the expansive array of options the store provides natively such as resolution, sending it to something else (Phone, Media Go, TVs), etc.

As for extraneous video content, like trailers, it's most likely the checks I added are basic and don't cover every edge case (because I wasn't looking for them). Another reason could possibly be the store itself classifying them as non-video content and/or not giving them "standard" video attributes.

To see a world without excluding non-game content use this modified version of PSDLE and do the following from the store page:

• Open the browser console:
  • Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + K, Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + J
• Paste the contents of the link and submit

If that is to your liking, I'll definitely consider working out a way to toggle it.
However, I'm not keen to the task of handling video content to the same degree as the store.
My personal example of PSDLE's pre-existing TV support, even works with Catalog.

Open the browser console with the appropriate keyboard combination.
If not using Firefox/Chrome, state your browser and I'll get you the correct one.
Please do this on a computer.

Afterwards a new window/panel will appear with a place to input text, paste the modified version into it and press enter.

Nothing in the code, no. Except the ability to Shift-click rows to "smartly" send them to the download queue (which would absolutely keel over on video).

The furthest I got with it was an idea for PSDLE to "minimize" itself and go to the item's store page (to access the store's downloading options) but that almost defeats the purpose of using it and would be a bit slower.

As stated above though: video/non-game content, more so those which are available beyond the PlayStation consoles and handhelds, have a lot of options that PSDLE currently doesn't replicate and would be an immense undertaking to do so:

• Detecting more devices on the account
• Properly sending queue information (I had to figure out PS3/4/Vita myself)
  • Although I would assume it'd be the same for PS3/4/Vita, the rest of potential devices may not be
• Reading the video information back from the queue (I would be limited to consoles)
• Somehow fitting this all into the interface

I apologize, but at this time I cannot see support for video/non-game content expanding (beyond its current bare minimum). At most, right now, I can add an option to not exclude the content, but then you'll be limited to the available resolution (SD and HD where available as you said) and only consoles (not Media Go, phones/tablets, TVs, etc).
