Any chance of adding access to "extra" content to Emplexer (like trailers, DVD extras, local extras)?

I'm continually working on the next version, but i don't have much time to work on emplexer now.

To the next release i'm working on a little better skin (with multiple views support) and the nfs/smb support.

My intention is make the next release a valid replacement to v1.

> Any chance of adding access to "extra" content to Emplexer (like trailers, DVD extras, local extras)?

Yes, this is my todo, i will try to add this in the next release.

Add to favorites then go into the favorites folder and use the popup menu button and choose "Launch on Power-on".

Hi all!

Dear **newloran2**!

I installed 0.2 on my Dune HD Base 3.0 with last stable firmware&nbsp;150227\_0032\_b9. There was a message 'plugin installed' but when I run it nothing happens. Could you please explain what has to be checked?

And one more question. How to install v2.0? I can read in the instruction

create in the root directory "/" on this disc, a directory called dune\_plugins.

download the &nbsp;2.0branch 

extract this file to the directory you created earlier.

the directory resulting from the extraction should be called emplexer2.

With this disk will have the following structure / dune\_plugins/emplexer2.

but what it is 'this disk'? I tried to put it on USB stick as '/dune\_plugins/emplexer2', tried to make a system memory and put the folder '/dune\_plugins/emplexer2' but it doesn't help. Could you explain a litle bit more detailed how to install v2 if it's possible with my Dune HD Base 3.0 with&nbsp;150227\_0032\_b9.

&nbsp;

Thanks

Hi,

I'm having issues with both version 1 and version 2.

Version 1 gives me the following error when I try and launch Emplexer:

"houve um problema ao acessar essa area, try again (401)"

In the log file I can see this:

[1301] [t744095744] [2015-04-04 12:58:16.402564] php engine: HTTP fetching&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

If I try and open&nbsp;[http://192.168.0.11:32400/library/sections/all&nbsp;](http://192.168.0.11:32400/library/sections/all%C2%A0)

in a web browser I get "401 unauthorised"

&nbsp;

I am running the latest PLEX server (v 0.9.11.16) which I believe has introduced some authentication requirements for clients.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Version 2 (the latest download) gives me the following error

System error Unhandled PHP plugin error. Call the PHP plugin vendor

&nbsp;

Both the log files are in the following location

i fixed the issues - the same problem was impacting both versions:

Basically the new version of the server has changed how local clients need to authenticate to plex - without a valid token then by default the server will reject you.

It looks like they have changed the way this works several times and this last iteration is somewhat confusing - for me anyway.

What I did to solve it

Remove yourself from the new HOME sharing service - if you set this up like I did to try it out it fundamentally changes the security of the server. THe only way I could find to disable this was to remove everyone from your HOME group and remove the PIN form the organiser.

Next in the PLEX web change Settings-\>Server-\>Network (ensure you have clicked "show advanced")

Change: List of networks that are allowed without auth.

I have a Dune HD Base 3D that I’d like to try Emplexer on. I just updated the firmware to the newest version. As of now what is the best version of Emplexer to use? I read that local storage is needed. Will an SD card work or do I need to put s hard drive in. If an SD card will work how big does it need to be. Thanks in advance for helping.

I couldn't get to the configuring stage. &nbsp;It just wouldn't launch.

I used this link to download it&nbsp;[https://github.com/newloran2/emplexer/blob/master/dune\_plugin\_emplexer.zip](https://github.com/newloran2/emplexer/blob/master/dune_plugin_emplexer.zip). &nbsp;Did I use the right file

The configuration is not in the app, it’s in the apps config.  
  
It’s described somewhere in this thread already so look in earlier posts.   
  
  
Also, make sure that all your media have pictures in PMS.

Thank you. &nbsp;I must have missed those instructions. &nbsp;I thought the configuration was done within the app. &nbsp;I'll find that and give it a try

I hope not. I use v1 almost every day and it works great. If PLEX gets a major update which requires emplexer to change I think we will be in “trouble”.   
  
I hope newloaran2 find time and motivation to work on emplexer again but life often gets in the way of this kind of “hobby” project.
