Describe the solution you'd like
It is simple. I want to see why media is added to a collection from within the logs of the container. Right now, I have created a rule, but I don't know exactly if this rule is behaving like I want it to. So it would be nice to be able to check if the reasoning behind my rule is valid.

Sort of like:
I have a rule to removes media when it hasn't been watched for more than 30 days.

Logs would be:
Checking movie "Star wars" - last watched at: 14-09-2023 > requirement: 30 days > false.
Checking movie "Die hard" - last watched at: 14-05-2023 > requirement: 30 days > true

Just an example, but I think you get what I mean. You use the different variables from plex, radarr, sonarr, and overseerr already, why not use it for logging purposes as well?

Let me know what you think.

Hi,

I think this is related to #455, I'm planning to add a statistics screen to each media card in a collection. Either a popup or a new screen, not sure yet. This would contain each rule and why it matched (perhaps with values).

This way, you'll to be able to check why the media item matched all the rules in a collection.

Your suggestion is a lot simpler to implement. But I'm afraid it's going to flood the logs.
