I have plex media server serving my movies as UPNP. I can't seem to add a channel for it though. Any help please?

You only have three options:
1) scrape all your media into xbmcs library bypassing plex.
2) use mylibrary tool and scrape your upnp plex server. Generating individual strms for all media.
3) create directory channels with a path to your upnp folder. Down side all your media will be one channel and would require advanced rules to split into categories.

If you are committed to XBMC you should drop plex, and pick option 1. Running xbmc as a plex client is silly.

Thanks. I'm using SMB now and everything works fine.

I can stream my files from a host to a client computer in XBMC using UPNP (no Plex involved). I added them by going to Videos > Files and added a UPNP source to the Movies folder.

How do I get the UPNP videos in my Movies folder to load in PTVL? I'm trying to go with option 1 (see above), and I thought adding a UPNP source to the Movies folder would do the trick. Auto-tune doesn't load any movie channels, since I don't have any local content on the client and it's not finding my UPNP source (even though they're in my Videos > Files > Movies folder). A little more clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Nice work. The epg is awesome. My wife was just asking me for a epg that puts the full video in a small box. Maybe I'm mistaken but I think this is the only one?

No, it was a feature I added a while back in visuals "Video Window Patch"
All skins included with PTVL feature the hack

anybody thats using the psuedo cinema chan how is that working out for you? I just tried to add the chan and let it run for about 45 minutes before giving up.

I change a few things around on how PseudoTV Live handles strm files...

Can i see logs? I assume you downloaded the CE pack? under donor

Thanks for adding the reservation for slots 1-500, Lunatixz. It will reduce frustration in the future.

Not sure it will work, PseudoTV needs a duration (runtime) from the database or a physical file to parse for duration. I'm not sure UPNP is part of the traditional database... send a log...

Here's my log - autotuning with the setup described above.

Being able to autotune the movies I've added via UPNP would be awesome. I recently bought the $170 Asus Chromebox and I'm trying to stream as much as possible to it, since it has a relatively small hard drive. So far I can stream my movies, music, and even Steam games from my main HTPC to the Chromebox. It would be fun if I could get all the functionality of my main HTPC on any TV in the house. The only things missing is being able to stream my movie library into PTVL.

PS: It would also be cool if I could stream my LiveTV channels in PTVL from my main HTPC to the Chromebox. Keep up the great work!
