This script will allow you to send a detailed email with PlexPy when new media is added to your PLEX server. Tested and works well with TV shows and movies. Not sure what will happen with music but its worth giving it a shot.

I have modified it for only shows and added a list for shows to be added. If the show is in the list then the email is sent. Here is the link.

Hello @mp998,
I am trying to use this script you created but whenever a item is added and the script executed, I get the following error in the log and no email is sent:
PlexPy Notifiers :: Script returned: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files (x86)\PlexPY\Scripts\PlexPy_email_notifiation.py", line 8, in
show_name = sys.argv[1]
IndexError: list index out of range
Any ideas on why I may be getting this error? I am not a python guy but some research on the error seems to suggest that a parameter needs to be passed to the script but I thought plexpy would do that. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
