Hi,

Just installed the app and love it. However, is there a command that will notify me if PMS crashes/goes down/can't connect to it? I don't see one on the app...

Understand that, but I want a notification. I'm not always looking at my server through RDP or TeamViewer so a notification would be nice...

One other thing, I got notifications done through PushBullet, but for some reason, I always keep getting the "user has started to watch ". I only want connection warnings. Is there anyway to turn off the user has started to watch notifications? See below, the only thing that is on is the connection warning ones

In alpha there is no way to turn off playing notifications if notifications are enabled.

This is a great tool. Alpha version has worked on for me until a few days ago, I am getting crashes every time I try and view stats or settings or open the app. I reinstalled it and still get same issue.&nbsp;

I know the beta is currently being worked on, any time frame on it?

Thank you for a great tool, excellent work!&nbsp;

That looks great! &nbsp;Will we be able to have this sent to everyone that uses our servers too?

I noticed an issue with TV Show stats. &nbsp;The View Counts are not adding up properly. &nbsp;On the main page for example Arrow shows VIew Count of 47. &nbsp;Then when I add up everything it also adds to 47. &nbsp;When I look at episode 1 there are 5 views shown by 5 different people that watched the episode to anywhere from 89-99%, those should all show as being viewed, should they not? &nbsp;Only 1 was 89, the other 4 are 97-99%, to me that is a complete watched episode.

Any ideas why the view count is off?

Movies are also off the same way. &nbsp;The main page shows one number and some movies show a different view count once you click on the movie.

I am running Alpha 110-111

Thanks

Larry

Yes you will be able to send a email to any of your users.   
  
Alpha is no longer in development so I will not be making any more fixes to it.
