Plex Notify

I am enjoying spying on my plex users in realtime. Such a great program. Great work!!

I'd like to suggest a feature that should be quite easy to implement - for someone with the knowhow. 

Sending a customisable Global Notification Message to users that are currently watching something. Similar to what Sickbeard and CouchPotato do.

For giving warnings that the Server is about to reboot or undergo maintenance etc.

And, if it is possible, being able to send similar messages to individual Users as well. 

No rush, just thought it'd be a great addition, if it is even possible. ;)

 

+1! 

These types of notifications will be in the E-mail interface. It is coming after the webserver.

302

These are already stored in the central database. if this is not working you have 2 databases. 

-Users (with their friendly name, email, toggles, etc...)

-PMS server IP/name

You're right, I just confirmed it; NICE!!!

I noticed that Plex Notify is not picking up the height of the resolution and at times the audio or video codecs in the Statistics page. Any idea why these are being overlooked?

EDIT: It appears that Plex Notify is mixing up the height and width of the resolution on the Statistics page. Here is the MediaInfo for this video:

ahem, I just got hammered with endless notifications via Pushover that there is an update update to plex notify, had to force close. And I can't seem to RDP home, probably the proccess kills my CPU...

Good catch, I see the problem. I will fix it in the next update.

0.0.0.13

Primary settings works fine now on second Plex Notify

I really think those settings should be disabled on "non primary" or centralized if "non primary" would be able to change them (maybe make it an option...)

***Yes, about the update crazy notification loop, I also have this bug.

OH GWAD. Ill fix this..

Also, I would personally like to disable the "animation" when opening a Plex notify screen. Not a big fan generally and not really well suited when managing in RDP.

Not a big deal though.

If you are RDP'ing from a windows machine you can just have plex notify on it =)

yeah, good point.

But for this (in my OCD preferences, lol), I think https://forums.plex.tv/topic/93952-plex-notify-in-development/page-16#entry572397 should be considered...

Request: It would be nice to see the season and episode number added to a show's title throughout Plex Notify. I find myself having to go to Plex/Web for this information. Is this possible?

312

hmm, so I can basically install several instances of Plex notify and direct the DB to my home one? and manage it locally?

313

I'm probably not going to disable these.

314

Really great when centralized on MySQL!

The Primary one on my server has notifications disabled (so it doesn't popup the notifications) but has the pushover, etc... configured.

The non primary (desktop PC) has the notifications enabled but no Pushover, etc... configured.

Starting to really look like a great server/client application now!!!

Very happy!

315

lol, the update that fixed the endless notification loop caused another endless notification loop :)

I hope it's fixed now

317

Ok so I added season and episode numbers to shows. Any the stream information has been fixed.

Hey thanks for all your hard work on this!  I can't seem to get it to install though, I wonder if I'm missing something?  I get the following error every time I run the clickonce installer: "Cannot Start Application.  Cannot Continue.  The application is improperly formatted.  Contact the application vendor for assistance."  I've attached the error log if that helps...
