### How to get WatchState working with YouTube content/library?
Due to the nature on how people name their youtube files i had to pick something specific for it to work cross supported
media agents. Please visit [this link](https://github.com/ArabCoders/jf-ytdlp-info-reader-plugin#usage) to know how to
name your files. Please be aware these plugins and scanners `REQUIRE` that you have a `yt-dlp` `.info.json` files named
exactly as your media file. For example, if you have `20231030 my awesome youtube video [youtube-RandomString].mkv` you
should have `20231030 my awesome youtube video [youtube-RandomString].info.json` in the same directory. In the future, I
plan to make `.info.json` optional However at the moment the file is required for emby/jellyfin plugin to work.

If you media is not matching correctly or not marking it as expected, it's most likely scanners issues as plex and
jellyfin/emby reports the GUID differently, and we try our best to match them. So, please hop on discord with the
relevant data if they are not matching correctly, and we hopefully can resolve it.
