Noob question: Samsung Client API endpoint not available

Dev Community Dev/API Corner

Hi all,

I’m having a crack at writing a little remote control application to control PLEX on my Samsung TV.

Consuming the API on the server to get media listings etc. is no problem, but I’m struggling to figure playback out.

From this reddit entry

and the wiki:

http://:/player/playback/playMedia?key=%2Flibrary%2Fmetadata%2F&offset=0&X-Plex-Client-Identifier=&machineIdentifier=&address=&port=&protocol=http&path=http%3A%2F%2F%3A%2Flibrary%2Fmetadata%2F

…it appears as though I need to GET data from the client.

However Postman does not connect to http://{TV IP address}:32400.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dan

And yes, the PLEX app is running :slight_smile:

Think you got this wrong…

The endpoints are on your PMS box, not on your Samsung TV.

Samsung Plex client is closed source, and has no public endpoints

Awesome, thanks for the quick answer Dane.

I guess that unfortunately means that controlling playback is not an option. :frowning:

Not on Samsung devices sadly
