Could you explain the "notify connection errors" function in details?
Sure! So if something has trouble connecting to a service a notification will be sent out. This includes logging into my plex, communication plex servers and 3rd party services such as growl or pushover.Could you explain the "notify connection errors" function in details?
Sounds awesome. Would/could that include notifications in the event if (my) Plex servers go down?
Would pushover support not make mobile notifications easy to implement? I'm using it with PlexWatch, works very well and not that hard to setup.
Yes it would =)

Yes it would lol quoted the wrong post.
I have a stupid question.
I use Prowl for notifications on my iOS devices.
Will this work with this or Growl is a complete different thing?
Here you go!
Your a machine! 
Is it possible to break out statistics of how many Movies and series there are on the server?
Total: 10
Movies: 4
Tv-series: 6
Genre:
Horror: 10

Haha thanks! Its encouraging to hear that community is excited for this. I want to build a good application for you guys.
I have tested the application on windows 8, 8.1 and 7. You will need a WPF, .net 4.5 compatible machine to use the application.

Net 4.5 not a problem, WPF? is that not just silverlight?

Not exactly, WPF is way more robust. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/944608/wpf-vs-silverlight
Looks like Plex Notify will be a featured app on https://pushover.net/ on first alpha release. :)

I don't know... Has issues with CouchPotato AND Sickbeard...
I love the fact that it work for iOS and Andriod but those are the main ones that need to work...
I'm still trying to figure this out but it seems like pending issues (Github, etc...) (8 months ago without any sign of fix)
***Update, never mind, I figured some things out, I spoke too soon... :rolleyes:
So I have finished the core engine this morning and finalized the core database structure so that no matter how many installs of Plex notify you have your statistics will be accurate. Only 1 install of Plex Notify will scrape PMS. All Plex notify installs will keep states in the database. That way if you re-start it, Plex Notify will know the Johnny was watching My Little Pony from the last time Plex Notify was running and the program will not notify you again that hes watching it. Videos Sessions are identified by creating a MD5 hash of the User id, Video ID and the PMS server ID. The engine will keep the state of movies in the database and have a full audit log for every movie watched. This way if someone starts a movie, get half way through and decides to watch it again X amount of hours/days/months/years later it will resume their session as long as they dont start within the first 1 minute of the Video or the time interval of the checks plus 10 seconds, witch-ever is greater.
GUI of the working Plex Notify Engine (SUBJECT TO CHANGE, pending user input and design changes):
Quick question (sorry if you already mentioned it)
Will user have to go in the actual application to see the UI or there will be a web interface as well, (accessible from anywhere basically)? Or is it planned...

For now its just a Desktop UI. I do have a open ticket, https://github.com/JBurlison/PlexNotify/issues/18 This with the plugin API planned will allow web based applications to be added to Plex Notify by just dropping the Plugin in the plugin directory. Installing the plugins from the UI.

Thanks.
With Pushover and email (I think) support with it, it will still be awesome.
Can't wait!
Videos Sessions are identified by creating a MD5 hash of the User id, Video ID and the PMS server ID.
Is there no need to have time/date calculated into the hash? Also, will there be an option of hiding the album art/posters in the desktop notifications?
Can't wait to try this out :)
