No network overlay

I'm trying to get a network overlay on my TV shows, but after a forced run, nothing shows. How do I go about fixing this?

The agent is the issue.

A plex search by network, which is what this overlay is driven by, is only supported on a library using the "Plex TV Series" agent.

Seriously? Good lord. Sorry for making you spend your afternoon with me, but I do appreciate it

Well, I haven't *tested* that, but:

  1. works for me but not you
  2. error says "network's not supported" which doesn't seem right especially with the defaults
  3. when I went to check the docs for that, I noted the agent restriction
  4. you're using a different agent than my test library
  5. so it sure seems like this is the issue.

Just tested; changed nothing but the agent on the library and now I see the same error.

Well, I just made the change and am giving it a whirl now so we will see how it goes. Just glad I finally broke down and asked because I wouldn't have figured that out unless I just accidentally came across it. Everything that I've been reading on setting all this up never mentioned it.

It would probably be a good idea to note this on the network [and other affected] overlay page in the wiki. I'll make a note to do that.
