Dune player

Hi WannabeMKII,

have a look page 49 on this forum at the little "installation guide" I wrote

I hope it'll help you understand how it works

you have to find a way to access your files from the Dune without using DPC, and then use the same way to configure "folder" in connection setup

regards

But if "info" screen won't appeared it further confirms my guess you are using wrong library type

I'm very surprised because indeed, nothing appears with "info" but I'm quite sure I selected the "movies" type in PMS (where I added 2 folders)

I'll try to take pictures of that tomorrow and show you what I meant (how can i copy a picture in a post here ?)

regards & good night also !

Ah ha, am I supposed to make the changes within Plex, rather than on the Dune?

Indeed, it's Windows.

You need to expose your movies and/or TV folder(s) on the network by making each a "share".

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770880.aspx

Once you have that setup, modify Plex to use the share names instead of the drive letters for each of your libraries. (will have to rescan your library). Now the Dune setup for DPC will show those share names rather than the old drive letters (which it can't access).  Then make sure to set the connection for each library and you should be set.

How you library icon looks? I mean originaly plex icon. If it like Clapperboard then you use Movie library. If it like double Frame - library is Home Video

Hi,

like I said yesterday :

- I chose the "movies" type in Plex Server (PMS) as shown in the 1st picture (IMG_0579)

- I added in it 2 folders "etrangers" (= "foreign") + "films FR" (= "french") as shown in 2nd picture (IMG_0580)

- the result in DPC can be seen in picture 3 (IMG_0581) : the posters are larger than tall & it should be the contrary

- nothing happens when I click on "info", I only can click on the red "A" (seen at the bottom on the previous picture)

- when I do that, the result can be seen on the 4th picture (IMG_0582) : the poster on the right is ok, but that's not the look I'd like to have...

as you can see on picture 5 (IMG_0583), on PMS, the look is ok (some posters are missing but it doesn't matter right now), the posters are "normal"

i hope this will allow you to help me !

I asked about library icon which on first screen of dpc. Ok, Please create test HoveVideo library with one movie and try this url http://192.168.0.21:32400/library/sections/ on your computer. Send me the answer from Plex.

ah, sorry, I didn't understand - my apologies

I'll do it tonight

[from what i remember, i didn't do anything in DPC except configure @ip, port, & connection settings ;

"movies" & "music" were already on DPC in connection settings]

Hi !

I have to make apologies here... I made mistakes when I configured PMS

as i'm a newbie in Plex (I had it uninstalled last year when emplexer didn't work for me), yesterday night I read all I could on Plex.

so I re-configured PMS (scrappers & agents mainly)

So now, it's ok with DPC : correct posters + when I click on "info", i have the summary & actors, etc !!!!!!!!!

(i'll have some suggestions to do, but later...)

very sorry for all this mess

regards

Great!

hi

question :

it seems like "all music" means "by artist" : is it correct ?

regards

hello, yes it's internal plex settigs

Hi WannabeMKII,

Thanks for the info, appreciated.

Unless I'm missing something, should I be able to change the paths within the "Connections Setup" page? If so, I don't seem to be able to edit them?

You need to expose your movies and/or TV folder(s) on the network by making each a "share".https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770880.aspx
Once you have that setup, modify Plex to use the share names instead of the drive letters for each of your libraries. (will have to rescan your library). Now the Dune setup for DPC will show those share names rather than the old drive letters (which it can't access).  Then make sure to set the connection for each library and you should be set.

This is already done, as I current use the Dune to connect directly to the shares.

I updated PMS with the same share details and it rescanned etc.

The paths within DPC show the full path, without a drive letter, but I can't edit them...?
