  • I am planning a rewrite of this plugin, and will add that to the list of support besides also being able to support other media server platforms

  • This has been added as well as turning on/off the dashboard widget in 2020.05.20b.  If you turn it off you can access it through the widget or under Tools->System Information.

  • It does just work for MANY. Have you tried my suggestion yet? I definitely want to assist in getting this issue resolved for many, but as I stated it is the results coming back from Plex that are th

Thanks for the great plugin, any chance you can add the name of the plex server to the plugin for those of us thay monitor more then one plex server this would be helpful to kow which of the servers are being used.
 

Thanks

This has now been implemented, you will need to go to settings and just hit save, as I have some additional details saving to the cfg file in order to make this work.

Perhaps under the "PLEX STREAMS" title is a good place?

What version of unRAID are you running.  I tested this on 6.12rc2 something might not be working for 6.11 and lower, I can certainly check once you confirm though.

Actually just found the problem its definitely an issue with version of unraid less than 6.12.  Update to version 2023.03.28b and it should show on the dashboard widget now.

Maybe try clearing your cache, I've seen the JavaScript file gets cached and that's what updates that piece.

Tried that on chrome [ctrl] [F5] on windows 10
also tried on my ipad, still not viable on dashboard
ver 2023.03.28b
Headed out the door for work

Hi, have been using this for a while and it was working fine. However, lately there is nothing coming through. I went into the settings and it just spins indefinitely - does not find my server. Any pointers?

The GUI has a function to automatically load updated versions of a file and eliminate the need to refresh the browser because of cached versions.

 

Change

<script src="/plugins/plexstreams/js/plex.js"></script>

 

Into

<script src="<?autov('/plugins/plexstreams/js/plex.js')?>"></script>

 

This will load automatically the latest version of "plex.js" bypassing the browser's cache.

What is the name and location of the file to edit?
Thanks again

Going to downgrade my machine to 6.11 and see whats going on there.  6.12rc2 is working for me, I will add what bonienl has suggest and get that out as well today.

@bbrodka @beasthouse Please upgrade to the latest version 2023.03.29a and let me know if that resolves your issues.  I added the piece to not have the JS get cached, as well as a bunch of other fixes I found for defects.

 

@bonienl Thanks for letting me know about the autov function.

So Fix Common Problems appears to not like you anymore

FCP is actually correct on that

    {
        "TemplatePath": "/tmp/appFeed/templates/dorgansRepository/unraid-plexstreams-template.xml",
        "errors": [
            "StartTag: invalid element name"
        ],
        "FirstSeen": null
    },

The xml is invalid (invalid xml syntax) and I've issued a PR

Fixed.

@dorganstill no good for me - or should I be restarting something as well?

EDIT: literally started working 2 seconds after I posted this, thanks!!!

Ok I will look into this, what version of unraid are you on?

Forgot about that!

I'm on 6.8.3

 

Seems like you might be issuing de "rm" not on the root path. Adding "/" to "usr" would do it (I suspect)

 

 

Hi all, wondering if you guys found a solution that can be shared here.

I have had this error on boot since I started using this plugin.

 

rm: cannot remove ´usr/local/emhttp/plugins/plexstreams/Plex_Streams.page.off´: No such file or directory

 

 

Thanks in Advance ! 😊

Take the entry out of custom servers as you already have the same server selected above in the list.
