The xml selection code has just been updated to make it cleaner. This means a massive amout of code has changed, including most of the xml templates.
Please do not update beyond PlexConnect v0.5 unless you are willing to do some serious bug testing.
If you are brave enough to update then by all means try your hardest to break the code and report any problems here.... There will be many bugs for you to find :D
Bugs/observations:
- directory templates/images is still there, now empty and unused
- Playlists/Audio doesn't work
- Channels/Audio and /Photo don't seem to work either - "trailers unavailable"
Edit:
- Channels/Audio fixed.

Umm... it's not showing up in github:- https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect/tree/master/assets/templates
Playlists/Audio doesn't work
Yep, points to the wrong directory, should be Playlists not Playlist :( Fixed now.
Channels/Audio and /Photo don't seem to work either - "trailers unavailable"
Channels/Photo fixed now.
>> Umm... it's not showing up in github:- https://github.com/i...ssets/templates
Interesting. So let's call this "a bug in the OSX github client" - not removing directories.
Also interesting... we are the only two in this thread. :-D
A coupe more things...
- TVShow->Hold (pop-up menu)->Goto Show does nothing
- myPlex signout/signin works, but shows spinning wheel forever
- Settings/discover gives no reaction at all. I wonder if that was the case all along?
- switching Playlist/Channel-Views don't update the actual view - as the former selection is still stored in the NavBar links. You got to get out/back in to see the effect. With libraries it works, as all three views are actually in one XML template...
I don't really like to now have to reload the NavBar whenever exiting Settings. I think we should remove the knowledge of the selected view from the links again, giving PlexConnect the decision at time of load.
- Movie->Hold (pop-up menu)->mark as watched/unwatched reloads the whole Section Navbar. It looks obtrusive, has it been that way, too?
Igloo?
I found this for users that git cloned to roll back a commit if needed:

>> switching Playlist/Channel-Views
Fixed with latest commit. There is something fishy with Playlists_TabbedList_*.xml templates, though...

Umm... very technical description there :)

Either not many bugs :D or people are afraid to try it :D
- Movie->Hold (pop-up menu)->mark as watched/unwatched reloads the whole Section Navbar. It looks obtrusive, has it been that way, too?
Yep, always been that way.
TVShow->Hold (pop-up menu)->Goto Show does nothing
I'll take a look at that.
Fixed now... Umm... in fact Baa you left a bug in ScrobbleMenuTVOnDeck.xml from when you updated the {{URL}} command :(
- Settings/discover gives no reaction at all. I wonder if that was the case all along?
Actually... it works perfectly in both your {{URL}} update and my current update.
myPlex signout/signin works, but shows spinning wheel forever
Fixed now.
>>Goto Show
>>Fixed now... Umm... in fact Baa you left a bug in ScrobbleMenuTVOnDeck.xml from when you updated the {{URL}} command :(
Strange. But possible, I guess. The URL change shouldn't have affected the old code... has it really?
>>Settings/discover working again
Yes... you did some changes with the "myplex sing in/out" commit...
Yes… you did some changes with the “myplex sing in/out” commit…
Changes which have nothing to do with Settings/discover. Settings/discover worked before I fixed sign in/out.
I’m not absolutely certain this is the right place to post this question, but I’m sure you’ll let me know. The “Search” function for SS-Plex channel is broken only when using PlexConnect. Works correctly on PMS, PHT, iPad Air & iPhone 5S. Perhaps the XML update may have something to do with it? If you can advice me where to find the log, I’ll attached it to the message. I searched everywhere and couldn’t find it. Thank you for your exceptional performance.
Yep, this update could very well of broken the channel search. I’ll take a look, but channel searching has always been hit and miss, some channels work, some don’t. You could check by installing the 0.5 release from the link in the first post and see if the search works in that version, if it does then it’s this update that has broken it, if not then it probably never worked 
I guess you are right. It Worked until until Friday, then it stopped.
Here is how you go back if needed to 0.5-dev stable if using git.
Unload you bash plist or stop Plexconnect in terminal then type this in a terminal:
cd /your_plexconnect_base_dir
sudo git reset --hard f1f3a93f3a4c1aac4a5b8c13f36b8c4442e1b255
Then load your bash plist or start PlexConnect in terminal and you should be all set.
SS-Plex works on this commit ;) If you use OpenPlex I have a easy one liner you can paste in terminal:
stopbash.bash; cd /Applications/PlexConnect; sudo git reset --hard f1f3a93f3a4c1aac4a5b8c13f36b8c4442e1b255; restartbash.bash; echo 'Exit your hijacked app on your aTV and reopen it to complete the downgrade ;-)'; git reset --hard
I guess you are right. It Worked until until Friday, then it stopped.
Channel searching has been fixed, could you update to the latest commit and try SS-Plex again please and let me know if it works.
One more thing...
Playlists/Audio doesn't seem to support earlier iOS versions - the ones that need the plist audio player. Yes I know, in that case (just one single file...) you can't really speak of Playlists, but wasn't that working earlier as well?
TV Show View - Detailed List seems to be broken.
When trying to view 'All Shows' or 'Unwatched' it just gets stuck on 'Accessing Trailers' and doesn't load. 'On Deck' seems to work ok though.
Also noticed when selecting back from the Detailed Episode view. I get a 'Trailers is not Accessible' error.

Should both be fixed now, please let me know :)
