Fix incorrect recently added items in Plex

Fix incorrect recently added items in Plex

Sometimes Plex saves a addedAt date in the future, in which case the item will always be stuck in the first position.

With this method you don't have to edit the database directly or shut down the server. You can fix it directly in the browser.

Fix the wrong date value

Runs a child process to play a second audio stream. Synced through named pipe. Recommend using with [cycle-adevice](https://gist.github.com/bitingsock/ad58ee5da560ecb922fa4a867ac0ecfd) to change the output device of the parent process.

Sony Bravia HTTP API

The sony bravia has a HTTP API interacted with using a Pre-Shared key. There's a more complex auth flow but I've not described it here.

There wasn't any documentation, so I've written some. If you're a TV integrator don't read this, you'll laugh. I'm probably just getting confused by UPnP.

Disclaimer: I've only tested this on my TV, which is a KDL-50W829B. Your TV might not have all of the services; see Available services section for how to discover what your TV supports.
