Red button is indeed the solution to get a wall of cover art.

When you click INFO for a movie and then start playing with the button on bottom left, movie starts. When you select INFO for another movie and start it with the same button on bottom left…it starts the previous started movie again?? So happens at every Dune Startup (from off yo on)

update (v1\_07)  
Fixed many bugs.  
Now is possible login on dune (you may use PlexPass), but it still works only inside local network  
Added Channels function. It VERY experimental. Not all channels work. In next updates i’ll use dune codecs, hope it will get more working channels.

Now it works. Thank you.

P.S. I had to select the list of artists WITHOUT photos because of locking. I’m prompted with “out of time” (translated in italian…). Overtime it locks I had to reinstall the player otherwise it doesn’t run anymore.

Wow wow wow it works and its beautiful!

Like you said channels is a hit and miss for me but probably because the one I am mostly interested is not an official channel.

Thanks again!

Thanks again for the great work on this plugin.

Would it be possible to have the plugin send resume information to the server, so that if we start a film from DPC it sends the info where it stops and it goes to “on deck” on the server to have the option to resume from another player?

x2 for above request.

In similar line. Would it be possible when DPC says “connecting” to plex media server it always sends a wake on lan magic packet? Since Dune doesn’t require any transcode from PMS my computer with PMS is sleeping by the time the movie ends. Would be helpful also when first launching DPC since sometime I forget to wake up my PMS computer.

So basically send a magic packet every time DPC connects to PMS.

Hello jmpr, would it be possible to have dynamic playlist like in normal Dune operations. Press SELECT over desired titles and then PLAY to start the Playlist.  
Thank you.

P.S. Any news about my problems in having the list of starring actors with photos (thousands and thousands of entries)?

Maybe this could help if you are running your server on Windows.

Great work on 1.07. The PlexPass integration works great with the Trakt plugin.

Have you had any chance to look at adding season and episode number into the info?

Hello @lpr It already can send info for server about playing/pause/stop movie/serie and timeline. Now I found bug with sending info about “already seen” command. And of course info appears onDesk. Isn’t it?

Ok. I plan this function for music libraries, but why not for movies 🙂

I already add this info but for another screen. Check it by pressing “Red” button. Or you are asking add it at first screen exactly?
