Trying to find average runtime of a show
geplaatst door dtaggartSTAFFMOD op 18 juni 2025 om 2:15 AM
Older define series had EpisodeRunTime filled in with a list of ints. I understand that now the episode duration is stored on the episodes but to find the average I would now need to request every single episode get the run time then average them?
Is there a better way? I much prefer the original implementation or if there was a endpoint I can get a subset of data of all episodes with flags on the fields I am interested in.

The old system doesn't permit to correctly calculate an average.
For example, it was saying that there are episodes that last 50 minutes and other that last 75 minutes, but not how many episodes there was for each value.

Hi @dtaggart,
We've never had a field for the average runtime of a TV show. I did however create a new ticket for us to look at this here.
