NYT channel pulls up stories and provides media info but when trying to play any article I get
"There was a problem playing this item" message.
Is this channel working for anyone else?

I've created a channel to view videos hosted on PornHub.

Features:

• Browse videos with various sort options (newest, most viewed, etc)

• Categories

• Channels
• Porn Stars
• Playlists
• Members
• Search

This channel is available in the Unsupported App Store v2. You can also download the bundle from GitHub to install manually.

Side story: I forked this from the original PornHub channel which stopped working long ago. I've created a pull request with all of my changes, but it seems like the original author hasn't been active on GitHub in 5 years, so I'm not holding my breath. If by some crazy happenstance the original author reads this (or someone knows them), I'd love to have you accept my pull request and hopefully even make me a contributor on the original repo. Until then, I'll be maintaining my fork. If enough time goes by, I might contact GitHub to remove me from "forked" status and have it as it's own stand-alone repo. Who knows. Anyways, enjoy the channel.

Also credit to @Nosinden for the idea to have a video sub-menu where you can see what porn stars are in the video, etc. Will be updating that with thumbnails eventually, much like his SpankBang channel. That dude makes good channels.

I can only watch the videos from my pc that i have placed in the folder. The only channels i can see are the featured ones and even those when i click to watch the re saying contents not available

This channel enables you to stream movies and TV shows directly from the BitTorrent network!

Supported servers:

• Windows
• MacOSX
• Linux x86 (32/64 bits) 

More screenshots

Features:

• TV Shows and Movies browsing based on trakt.tv using full metadata
• Torrents are extracted from EZTV and KickassTorrents
• Allows to keep downloaded files after viewing (check Preferences page)
• Tested working on Plex Home Theather, Plex Web, Roku, PS4, iOS and Android clients.

Installation:

• Grab the latest release: Github
• Follow this guide: How do I manually install a channel?

Updating:

• Handled by the channel's own update system

Known issues:

• Since there is no way to give user feedback about the current progress of the background downloading, when pressing the final play button, be a bit patient. You can also try pressing play again as most client tend to have an internal timeout.
• No subtitles yet as channels don't support subtitles yet.

You can use this thread to report issues but the GitHub repository would be a better place. Also, pull requests for bug-fixing and new features are always welcome. Same goes for donations  :)

Enjoy!

HelloHue for Plex and Philips Hue

Sync and control your Philips Hue lights with Plex!

Credits
This Channel is based on PlexWink by @vanstinator.

Behavior

This channel detects when a media is playing, paused or stopped on your Plex Clients. Then it checks if it's a video, the client name, and the user who owns the stream. If it matches your criteria it triggers your lights with the actions you have set up.
You can also turn your lights on and off inside the channel.

Configuration

The config is pretty simple and only needs to be done once. Configure your settings following the details below.
One room is composed of one client, one or multiple users and one or multiple lights, as well as the actions : on play, on stop, on pause, dim value, and only trigger if it's dark outside.

• Plex.tv login is your Plex login.

• Plex.tv passwords is your Plex password. It is only sent to plex.tv to get an identification token (so you must have a working internet access).

• Plex Server Address is the local adress + port to reach your server (example : 127.0.0.1:32400).
• Philips Hue Bridge Address is the ip address of your Philips Bridge.
• Nearest city from your location Used to calculate to calculate sunrise/sunset hours at your location.
• Activate HelloHue in room 1 Tick to activate room 1 (and fill the client, users and lights settings for room 1).
• Name of plex client able to trigger in room 1 You can find the list of users in PMS -> settings -> devices. Only put ONE client per room. If your have two clients in the same room, activate an other room and fill the settings with the other clients name and the same lights names.
• Name of the users able to trigger in room 1 You can find the list of users in PMS -> settings -> users -> myhome. You can put multiple users (comma separated values, case sensitive).
• Name of the lights to trigger in room 1 is the list of lights that will be triggered in room 1. You can put multiple users (comma separated values, case sensitive).
• When a media is playing in room 1 is the action that will fire when a media is playing in room 1.
• When a media is paused in room 1 is the action that will fire when a media is paused in room 1.
• When a media is stopped in room 1 is the action that will fire when a media is stopped in room 1.
• Choose dim value in room 1 is the value your lights will dim to. (20 is the min brightness and 240 is max)
• Randomize hue and saturation on Dim/Turn On in room 1 will randomize your light color each time the action turn on or dim is fired.
• Only trigger lights if it's dark outside in room 1 Tick to only trigger your lights between sunrise and sunset.
• Activate HelloHue in room 2 Same thing as Activate HelloHue in room 1 ...
• ...

Support the project

I've developed HelloHue on my free time, so if you like it please think about buying me a beer!

Has anyone developed a channel that pulls in videos from the gopro.com/channel to Plex?

I am running plex on mac os x (10.11.6) and added the vimeo channel. I don't see anywhere to provide my vimeo credentials. Plex will connect but doesn't see my vimeo account videos because I restrict them. In plex, where can I provide my vimeo login credentials so that I can have plex view and search my personal vimeo videos?

The New York Times

News and opinion video from The New York Times including breaking news, investigative reporting, national and international coverage.

How to install?

The New York Times channel is available in the Channel Directory.

Where do I report issues?

Post in this release thread or create an issue on Github and add as much information as possible:
- Plex Media Server version, OS, Plex client being used etc.
- Your location in the world (important for certain channels that grab content from content providers that use geo-blocking)
- Log files, com.plexapp.plugins.thenytimes.log and com.plexapp.system.log (upload those to Pastebin)

About:

WebTools 2.x is a collection of utilities to help with the management of your Plex Server.
This plugin is not limited to the usual channel interface. Instead, it utilizes a built-in webserver to display a responsive web interface which also works on mobile devices, allowing you to manage your Plex Server from any device.

This tool was created by Dagalufh (Frontend) and Dane22 (Backend) with the beta testing from:

• OttoKerner
• sa2000
• trumpy81
• Xandi92
• chuckpa

Currently the tools available are:

• Logviewer

• Subtitle Management

• Unsupported AppStore
• FindMedia

Logviewer

This tool allows for easy viewing of logs related to Plex and it's plugins via an easy to use web interface. It also gives you the ability to download all of the logs in a .zip file to easily send to a developer of a specific plugin.
(This includes logs of 3rd party plugins, contrary to the Log download button in Plex Web.)

Subtitle Management

The purpose of this tool is to give the user a way to manage subtitles that are not embedded.

Current features:

• View the content of a subtitle file for easier identification.
• Highlights the subtitle that is selected as active in Plex for a specific Movie or Episode
• Removal of one or more subtitles. Usage is on your own risk as this will delete files on your hard drive.

Unsupported AppStore (UAS)

This tool was originally created by mikedm139 and was one of the most popular plugins in the Plex universe. Now, this is included in WebTools 2.0, giving it an easy to use web interface that allows for quick installation/removal/update of plugins.

For more information, please visit the UnsupportedAppStore thread

FindMedia

This tool will quickly search a library, and then compare the items in the Plex database to the actually accessible media files on disk. It will then list all missing items from either the Plex Media Server database, or from your file system. This tool combines the outcome from the 3rd party plugins "Find-Missing" and "Find-Unmatched".
Find-Unmatched is due to that discontinued, and removed from UAS.

User Guide:

It's with great pride, that we can announce, that one of the most dedicated Ninja's up here ( @trumpy81 ) has made a user guide, to the benefit of us all. It's fully integrated into WebTools and can be accessed via the help menu.

Installation:

Installation of WebTools is sadly a manual process, so here's what to do:

• Download WebTools from GitHub, and select the file named WebTools.bundle.zip.
• Extract it, and make sure, that the extracted directory is named: WebTools.bundle, it must end with .bundle
• Make sure that inside the extracted directory, is a directory named "Contents", and if not, you might be a directory too low or high. If so, reorganize the folders with their contents.
• Locate the plug-in folder of your Plex Media Server. For a support article about where that is, look here: https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/202915258-Where-is-the-Plex-Media-Server-data-directory-located-
• Copy the organised folder from above to the plugin directory

The directory structure should look like this:

Plugins
   |_ WebTools.bundle
      |_ Contents

Now wait a couple of minutes, and then check in the channels directory to see if you have a channel named WebTools. If not, restart the Plex Media Server.

Note:

You can also use the EasyInstaller if your Plex Media Server is running on:

• AsuStore
• QNAP
• Synology
• Windows

If running Docker, this might be helpful
3rd party article about how to install
Official Wiki

Usage:

To use this plugin, just type http://<Your-PMS-IP>:33400 into your browser's address bar.
It's a good idea to bookmark it.
The initial screen will be different, depending on your PMS setup:

• If you are signed in to Plex.tv on your PMS, you use the same credentials here as it authenticates towards Plex.tv
• If you are not signed in to Plex.tv, and it’s your first launch, you are required to set a password to use when accessing WebTools. This can later be changed from within the tool if you need to. On all the consecutive visits to WebTools you will use that password.

After login you are presented with a list of available tools:

LogViewer

When accessing this tool it loads up the Plex Media Server log. You can then via the drop-down select the log you wish to see.
There are no extra preferences available for this tool.

Subtitle Management

When accessing this tool it fetches a list of available libraries and populates a menu at the top.
By selecting one of the libraries, the tool starts to fetch a set amount of data and presents it to you.
If it’s a TV library, you can continue moving down the tree until you hit an episode
You can then select one or more subtitles for removal, view a subtitle, or upload a new one
This tool offers some extra preferences other than the default for WebTools, refer to the built-in help file for more details

Unsupported AppStore

See separate thread about usage for this over here

I've seen this question ( and this sentence) multiple times with dates that go back and couple of years and there's never an answer or fix.

There are no channels in my directory. It's blank. Nothing. Nada.
I've cleared, cleaned, updated , restarted and reinstalled any and everything there is.
Still nothing.

Why is this still an issue, and is there some trick to being able to actually see what channels are available.
Kind of sucks playing for Plex Pass and not having access to anything.

With the last two PMS releases, I lose the ability to choose the HD versions of shows via Roku.
Version 0.9.16.4 is the last one on which it seems to work. Before, it would choose the highest quality that met with the streaming quality I set in the server settings, but with the last two releases it automatically chooses an SD stream and has removed the version option from within the menu. If I view the same item on the servers desktop side, I can choose the resolution from the new "Quality" button on the bottom right of the video pane, but there's no analogous button on the Roku side.

I'm running PMS on Linux Mint 17.1
Roku 3 - 4200X

YouTubeTV on Transifex

Hey everyone,
Early January I gave the very talented Sander a challenge, and we worked a week on it. The challenge was to try and create a Dreambox plugin which I could use in my setup which would fetch my cousins dreambox content.
I am pleased to say that we have a working first draft which you guys can tryout if you want to.

It uses the raw stream at a specific IP, but we also tried to build in support for having a transcoder at a seperate address in case people outside your network wants to view, but has limited bandwidth.
The development of that plugin is on hold at the moment, but you are welcome to try it out: https://github.com/sander1/Dreambox.bundle

EDIT: The above link is for the original version which now is outdated. The latest greeeny101-version can be found here: https://github.com/g...Dreambox.bundle

Go into the plugin, choose preferences. In the host field you add the IP address to your dreambox. In the "web interface port" you add the port which the web interface uses. This plugin uses the web interface to change channels. The field called "Streaming video port" should contain the port from which you stream transcoded material (if any).

Maybe in the future Sander will have time to help me flesh this out, but for now this is what exists. Let me know how it works for you guys.


Limitations: This plugin is only tested with the web interface that is called Enigma Web Interface - Pli Edition. Until more development is done to support the Dreambox API, no other web interface will work I believe.

Like this for Plex.....on PC...MAC...Linux.....etc...
