[Plugin] Active Streams - Display your active Emby/Jellyfin/Plex streams on your dashboard

I’ll look into using the actual icons. I used the generic colored ones because I was unsure of the legality of using their icons. Jellyfins is likely more straight forward depending on their licensing. Plex and Emby are companies with their logos trademarked I’m sure. I don’t want a takedown for using their IP.

Minimum is 1 second, max is 60. It defaults to 5.

understand, but for me, work only 10s for timestamp, 1s not working

I might try to roll back 2 versions personally. It could be me specifically... but everything was working and displaying correctly on my screen 2 versions ago... the last 2 updates now look like the attached image assuming I can attach an image... basically the text fields are locked and VERY tiny...

try this test build. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gthrift/activestreams-unraid/main/activestreams_test.plg

uninstall the current plugin and then install using this test link. Your config will be kept.

Wow!

Perfect!

You fixed it immediately! Everything is back to looking exactly as it should.

Thanks for looking into this so quickly. I had assumed that it was something that I screwed up.

All good now!

This plugin was never working (for me)...

Every time a stream has ended, it remains at the dashboard... over a while it shows 5 or more "inactive" streams...

Only a refresh over the browser button fixed the showing of ended streams.

Is this fixed now?

This is the first I've heard of it. What media server were you running?

Perfect. I'm going to push it to the main release. You'll want to uninstall and switch back so you don't receive any more test releases.

dont know why, but after last update, dont have roll option and have like smaller size for device and user

Have - since i have installed this plugin - every day a "Blacklist-Warning" from Fix Common Problems.

It says that this Plugin can corrupt SMB (?)

Whats going on here?

Why is this Plugin blacklisted?

I believe with the recent update, you're unable to delete or add a server.

I just tested deleting and adding a server with no issue. Can you provide additional details? Plex/Emby/Jellyfin? What version?

Let me take a look at the API and see why that Partial HW is being returned.

This is fixed. Looks like the Plex api always reports "Partial HW," even when Direct Play. I've filtered that out and added some additional details to that mouse over tooltip that I'd been wanting to add.

I'm getting this too. Even when I have refresh interval at 1second, it still uses 10 seconds (sometimes 11 seconds) refresh.

But besides that, great plugin! Thank you so much!

@Squid Is this plugin ready for the app store and to be not blacklisted ?

I found it through the app store so I presume it's not blacklisted.

Update: looks like it's not there now.
