[REL] PleXBMC

does anyone know how to change the tvshow background of tv with dog on it, and the movie one? ive tried replacing them in the plex media server/resources/graphics, but no luck, tried replacing them in the plexbmc skin im using also no luck....and dont see anywhere in the actual addon to replace them....

I'm starting to manually include some of the popular non-xbmc.org repo add-ons on the XBMC Wiki:

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:PleXBMC

Feel free to do what you want (within reason) with that page. You can even make subpages by adding a slash to the url, like:

wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:PleXBMC/changelog

Drop me a message if anyone needs help with wiki editing. Anyone can edit, just register on the wiki and you're good to go (page creation requires an account that is a few days old and has made five edits).

Hello.

Is there any way to get PleXBMC to utilize the 'sorttitle' flag when sorting by name?

Thank you.

Hi all,

I have installed xbmc and the plex add-on successfully. By the way, thanks for your work!

The porblem is that the plexbmc doesn't see my libraries. The reason is the following (from debug log):
19:02:04 T:140397952661248 M:2462597120 NOTICE: PleXBMC -> getURL: url = http://192.168.1.200:32400/system/library/sections

<MediaContainer noHistory="0" replaceParent="0" size="0" identifier="com.plexapp.system"/>

So my plex server doesn't give back any library
For the Plex Media Server I am using the binary package available for fedora/centos (there is a thread about it) which is based on the binary package for ubuntu. I have tested two versions but both of them has the same issue:
- 0.9.5.3.268
- 0.9.5.3.309

Other players (samsung smart TV, android plex) are working fine.

If I do a GET on http://192.168.1.200:32400/library/sections then I get back my libraries (this is what the plex manage website does and I guess the other players as well) but that xml is not usable for plexbmc ( I tested it ).

Do you have any idea what can be the problem and where should I start?

Thanks.

What version of plexbmc and what version of XBMC are you using?

Hi

May be a silly question but if I use this plugin would SkyGo for plex run ok?

Hello all,

I'm trying to add a video source for Plex under Videos in XBMC.

When I Browse to Video Plugins and click on my plugin.video.plexbmc icon, after a minute of trying to fetch the data, I get
I've triple checked the username and password from the settings.xml file in /Q/plugins/video/plugin.video.plexbmc/resources

from my log file it looks like XBMC isn't even recognizing the plugin properly in the first place....

Perhaps I didn't install Plex correctly? I downloaded the latest Plex zip and dropped the plugin.video.plexbmc folder with it's contents into /Q/plugins/video/

Can anyone provide some insight as to what next steps I can take to resolve my issue?

Many thanks!

By the way, I've just downloaded the latest release candidates of both XBMC and Plex yesterday so I should be on most recent versions of both...

Hi,

no matter what version of PleXBMC i'm running, it always shows the same issues:

* Watched/Unwatched status isn't displayed correctly or at all. ATM i'm using latest Quartz skin, but it doesn't matter which skin i'm using. It's the same everywhere. Even if i manually try to select "Mark as unwatched/watched" doesn't change anything. No status badge is shown.

* Resume/Start from beginning always shows twice. For example, i start to watch a video; stop it (back to menu); when starting it again first XBMC's choose dialog pops up; i select one option; PleXBMC's (or PMS's) choose dialog pops up asking the same again...

* Poster/Fanart isn't displayed correctly after changing it in PMS. It always shows the very first poster/fanart and doesn't change to the new ones.

Any solutions on this? Thanks!

Pecinko,

Was that a reply to my post? Sorry I didn't follow if it was.
