Jan-2015 - Any feature requests? - for next release

Closed this issue · 3 comments

Hi all,

Happy new year!
I currently have some holiday time from work - yipee! So I've been working on some new features.

I'd like to hear if there are any small changes/tweaks - or features that you'd like. Or comments on what I have done below. If I get time I'll add screen shots to the wiki for feedback.

So far I have completed:

Features:

  • Dialog to confirm exit from Plexee
  • Refresh button on the home screen
  • Search button on the home screen allows searching across shows/movies/episodes/albums or actors or tracks (shows results on home screen)
  • Basic support for music
    • added a player at top of screens (the remote play/pause button works on this)
    • changed album to list tracks with time etc...
  • Show myPlex Queue (on home screen)
  • Support to play different media versions Plex has for the same movie
  • Support alternate audio streams - with some limitations at present :(

Tweaks:

  • Enhancement to determine the local server address when using myPlex

Fixed Bugs:

  • Updating progress not working if connected just by myPlex (It looks like this wouldn't work)
  • Fix for channels not playing

I'd like to also add:

  • Support for Plex playlists
  • Support queuing music tracks

Cheers,
Hamish

So cool that you guys are continuing to work on this!

Is it possible to get theme music support?

MyPlex Queue is at the top of my list. Most of the other features you've listed are also nice. Keep up the good work.

Hi all,

I've - at long last - released these changes.
All the items above were added - and I managed to solve the alternate audio stream limitations.

Cheers,
Hamish
