I also use Scene Marker Tags to Scene and Stash Notifications. Here are some other essential ones for me:
- Select sort alphabetically: Not an official plugin as such, but WithoutPants made this back in the day to retain the functionality of sorting tags alphabetically in the selection windows. It’s absolutely essential to me as I have a ton of tags for scraping purposes, but I use leading whitespaces to bring to the top the ones I actually use when manually tagging scenes.
- renamerOnUpdate: It’s not perfect, but it’s very versatile and works well enough for my purposes. Absolutely essential for me.
- 7djx1qp’s various plugins related to tagger, maybe Stash Batch Result Toggle as a highlight. It’s very useful since I often want to scrape against both StashDB and TPDB, but when I scrape against TPDB I don’t want to update certain fields, so with this plugin I can ensure the those fields are untouched.
- The Porn DB Markers: Not quite essential, but this is the easiest way to get studio markers to my Stash.
- VideoScrollWheel: I don’t know how I’ve managed without this - it’s just so handy to be able to both adjust the volume and seek the video with just the mouse wheel.
- Tag Scenes From Performer Tags: Makes manual tagging much easier since I can tag the performers with certain tags that typically don’t change from scene to scene (ethnicity, breast size, height, etc.). Yes, this information is available in some way in performer fields, but I’ve found that it’s easier to maintain my system in scene tags and filter scenes that way.
Other nice-to-have plugins:
- Tagger-img-res: Nice to have the scene cover resolution available in tagger view.
- Overlay-info: Having the codec visible on the scene card is very useful since I like to transcode my videos.
