I am using PMM to create smart Plex collections that are supposed to contain all unwatched Episodes of multiple shows based on the shows being in another (Plex dumb) collection. These smart collections are set up with collection_filtering: user, so they show unwatched episodes for the currently viewing user, not the Admin account. This has been working quite well so far.
However, some of the collections never get created, since the Admin account has already watched every Episode that would go into that collection. The log states Collection Minimum: 1 not met for New DeV Videos Collection.
I have looked at the documentation and found the minimum_items attribute, which should be the solution. But that requires an integer greater than 1 to work. Setting it to "0" does nothing, sadly.
In my opinion, this attribute should accept a "0" value, at least in the context of a "smart" collection with collection_filtering: user. But also in general, I see no reason to disallow creation of empty smart collections by PMM, since they are dynamic and would populate automatically even without running PMM again.
Otherwise there needs to be a change to how PMM evaluates the amount of items appearing inside smart collections using collection_filtering: user to take other user accounts into consideration, if the Admin accounts watch history would lead to an empty collection.
Current workarounds:
Never use the Admin account for actual media consumption (not feasible, too much history migration needed)
Mark one Episode as unwatched on the Admin account, run PMM, mark it as watched again (using default setting delete_below_minimum: false)
