New version 1.09. fixed: - error then enter “onDesc” filter - error then try set “complex” icon for channels - error then enter “all series” new: - Auto Plex Ip. You can chose in setup use IP settings Auto or manual. - Template IP for connections. If you enter word “plex” in connections instead server ip, plug-in will use real PLEX IP in this connection. It will usefull if you use dinamic ip on your PLEX server. - Function “Wake-on-Line”. If your PLEX server is went sleep, plugin will try wakeup it and will wait up to 60 seconds. - Warning message if “system” storage is absent. - Add library “PlayLists” support. - Function “Backgroung” for libraries. You can choose use background or not. And you can choose custom jpg file for background. Just put some jpg in “dpc\_custom\_icons” folder (as for custom library icons) - Blackout background for better contrast main text in backgrounds and “info” screen Improvements: - in case trailer is mp4 it will start more faster - If you use “codecs” some channels will works [dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8488718/dune\_plugin\_dpc\_v1\_09.zip](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8488718/dune_plugin_dpc_v1_09.zip "https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8488718/dune\_plugin\_dpc\_v1\_09.zip") ---

Contribute to newloran2/emplexer development by creating an account on GitHub. I installed it successfully, but i dont seem to be able to launch it. Is it not compatible with Dune Base 3.0?

MindaugasP I recommend using DPC seeing its jmper is doing a wonderful job updating it. I updated to version 1.092 and I am reporting that the wake-on-lan feature worked like “magic” yesterday. 😉 Didn’t get a chance to test Channels with my problematic one yet. Can’t wait. ---

Got it. Installed DPC and it works. Now the noob question: Do I have to install Plex on my computer and make them communicate somehow? Or it is enough to create an account on Plex website? ---

Hello @MindaugasP First of all of course you have to install PLEX server on some your computer After this you can use DPC as client ---

Well, i realized that probably i need to install a server somewhere, so installed it onto my pc. Logged in, everything works. I installed BBC channel. It also shows on my Dune (i did not manage to play it yet. It shows names of different shows but nothing plays) Now i tried to create a folder for the movies (i store all of them in my Dune) I created a folder on the Flex server on my pc. But it seems that all the films need to be physically in that folder (meaning, not on Dune) Is my understanding correct, @jmper ? ---

Also, when my pc is off, then Dune client does not work of course. I guess its much better to install DPC on a NAS ---

You mean Plex Media Server, PMS not DPC, on your NAS. Sure but most NAS doesn’t have the CPU power for Plex. ---

I studied Channel a little bit more. I choose BBC, then BBC One, then i get a list of days: Live, Highlights, Today, Yesterday, etc. If i open Live i get black screen with a tiny clock on the top-left corner If i choose any other, i get a list of TV features with little screenshots of them If i choose any of them i get i dialog box saying “Playlist is empty. [OK]” I have a good feeling about DPC, i just need to get it work 🙂 ---

> @phatboyc said: > You mean Plex Media Server, PMS not DPC, on your NAS. Sure but most NAS doesn’t have the CPU power for Plex. Yes, sorry, i meant installing PMS on NAS. But buzzing PC in the same room is not a nice feature either 🙂 I saw Plex offers server download for Synology NAS. Anyone tried? But the main question remains: Do my films have to be on the same PC where the PMS is installed? Or the PMS could somehow index files on the harddrive that is in DUNE ---

I have a Synology, like I said unless you have an Intel based CPU on your NAS don’t even think about any transcode. Not needed for the Dune but simply browsing poster art was slow. Its free to try if you want to. Movies doesn’t have to be on the same PC as PMS. PMS on your PC can point to your NAS. I think you should read up on Plex. You will learn allot. Just not in this thread as it specific to the DPC plugin. ---

Hi Unfortunately not all channels works on dune. Now I’m trying improve it. You don’t necessary have all films physically on server. Just map you dune disk as network folder on server and select “storage” method in connection on DPC.
