I see no connection between that picture and any earlier post here.  
It's just a picture showing that you had no clients or notifications.  
This doesn't match anything I or others have reported recently.  
  
So I have no idea what you're referring to.  
(I guess it could refer to some problem at your end, with clients not connecting...)  
  
In any case, my own usage of v0.0.0.94 remains as reported before.  
  
ETA is flawless for the notifications and main screen, but in the "Log Of Events" all ETAs for the same timestamped events are different, and the ETAs from original launch events in that log always project ETA to occur after doubled playtime from the starting timestamp. (Some resume events have more reasonable ETA, but may still be based on a doubling of remaining playtime.)

I have 4.5 installed and I tried to download the app multiple times and each time I Run it it says its not properly formatted. I'm breaking my head trying to figure it out. I really wanna try your app.&nbsp;

actually i had to restart my pc, i figured i could get away by just installing&nbsp;

so i ran it and put in my plex user id and password and it accepted but there are no plex servers in my drop down&nbsp;

There's a help button on the title bar that can help you with the initial setup. Or you can go to the documentation page on the plex notify site in my signature.

Is anybody else having issues with the PN app crashing today, every time I load I'm getting a pause then not responding error before the app crashes! Strange as far as I am aware there have been no further app updates..

It’s the change I made with caching the videos to disk rather than the database. It’s causing invalid path names. I will put in a fix in the next patch.

Same here. Just suddenly crashed (probably after an update), and I can't start it up. Once every 10 times it starts up, shows no notifications, I select settings and it crashes. This is on WS2012R2.&nbsp;

For some reason, specifically this field doesn't keep the text and switches back to empty (which cause an error)

\*\*\*On MySQL BTW

The others are fine though.

And also, this is starting to be a problem (text cutting short)

I think reducing the text size could resolve this quickly for now at least...
