The only thing you should have to change is the port number not the IP address in that setting. The IP is only to specify a IP address to listen on if you have multiple IP's on your machine.
So it should be something like 8082:localhost I believe.
Thanks for the tool!
I also can't seem to get RSS to work. Maybe I am missing something. I try enabling the web server on the Web tab in settings and navigate to http://:8082/rss and my browser cannot find the page.
This would be great to have since I am also interested in controlling my Hue Lights using PlexNotify.
I was going to try and listen to the RSS feed and create a trigger with IFTTT to dim light when video is being played back by checking for keywords.
Try http://myip:8082/rss/
If that doesn’t work check programdata/plex notify/webserver/www and check if there is a rss directory there with a xml in it.

I see the index.xml file in \ProgramData\Plex Notify\WebServer\www\rss and it contains entries with notification history.
I can't view rss it in a web browser.

Humm interesting. Ensure your webserver is running. It creates a icon in your icon tray. Right clikc on it and it to open the Plex Notify page and tack rss/ on to the end of the url. The trailing slash is important.

I think the problem is the web server never starts. Is there something I need to have installed for this to work? On the Web tab when I Disable and enable web server nothing seems to happen. The status says running and never changes and there is no new icon in tray.
Hi JBurlison.
Any chance there would be a possibility of having a PleX bandwidth monitor added to PleXNotify?
Thanks!
Thanks. I will copy those files tonight.
Can you last the updates and additions you’re planning on implementing next so we have done ideas of what is coming? I have some things I would like to serf but don’t want to list what is anyway in the planning stages.
Keep up the good work.

Yes but only for windows machines.

For mac and Linux servers I can give a estimate because I know the sive of the video and the % watched.

Yeah a few pagea back I posted beta 1 patch notes im on my phone so I dont have access to them at the moment.
Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
Here is the list:
Beta v0.0.1.0
- Added Music Support. (This can get very spammy. Notifications are off by default and is used only for statistics purposes.)
- Added additional plugin support
- Plugin settings tab has been added to the settings screen.
- Added Web Server
- Added Web Server configurations
- Added Web UI for Plugins.
- Added Web API.
- Added Web page for your users to manage their notifications.
- Added RSS Feed
- Added Recently added support
- Added Email Support
- Added a Email screen where you can create email notifications for users.
- Emails can be configured to auto-send or send manually.
- Users can opt-out of emails with an unsubscirbe button auto added to all emails. You will not be able to send email to these users.
- You can create your own custom HTML email.
- 2 template emails are included
- weekly newsletter
- Recently added
- Emails use tokens similar to Notification messages to populate the email.
- Note: (x) is configurable.
- Statistics tokens are for the emailed user not The plex server as a whole.
- All tables, lists and elements are named for CSS in the tokens. See Documentation at PlexNotify.com for more information and examples.
- {Recently Added} - This will show the recently added content for the past (x) days OR only the content the emailed user has not been notified about.
- {Recently Added Detail} - Same as recently added but in a table that displays all the media information.
- {Movies Watched} - Number of movies watched in the past (x) days.
- {TV Shows Watched} - Number of TV shows watched in the past (x) days.
- {Audio Listened To} - Number of audio files listened to in the past (x) days.
- {Total Plex Time} - The grand total of all the time in both audio and video on your plex servers over the past (x) days.
- {Total Listen Time} - Total amount of time listened to audio on your plex servers over the past (x) days.
- {Total Watch Time} - Total amount of time watched on your plex servers over the past (x) days.
- {Total TV Show Watch Time} - Total amount of time watched for TV shows on your plex servers over the past (x) days.

- {View List TV Show} - Displays a list of all TV shows watched to over the past (x) days.
- {View List TV Show Detail} - Same as View List TV Show but in a table that displays all the video information.
- {View List Movies} - Displays a list of all Movies watched to over the past (x) days.
- {View List Movies Detail} - Same as View List Movies but in a table that displays all the video information.
- UI improvements in settings and statistics screen.
- Updated User Management in settings.
- Fixed detection for video watch "Re-starts"
- Fixed some cases where notifications would be infinitely sent out.
- Fixed memory leak in Stats page
I have completed some of these already. My focus at the moment if finding a work-around for the .net memory leak with bitmap images. I dont like that the stats screen uses 500mb of memory and it neve goes away. after that the focus will be:
1. recently added
2. Music support
3. puhbullet
4. additional plugin support
5. Web API
6. Email
7. User management
You rock.
Now, I am running Server 2012 R2. What is the best way for me to implement this? Sorry- I require hand holding when it comes to coding :(
Hi
Excellent work so far, this fixes a lot of the things missing in Plex. I have one (badly worded) request though:
* Don't count a video as watched in the stats-screen if less than 10% is watched and possibility to take the "% watched" of a video into account when setting up different notifications
I'll try to clarify;
Often users will start the wrong video, quickly realise this and exit the video, or for some other reason start a video and quickly exit it. This will send me a notification about them having started the video, even though they didn't really watch it. It will also show up in the stats as watched, so if someone starts a movie and turns it of after 30 seconds, when I go to the statistic page to see what movies have been watched, a lot of movies that really wasn't watched will be listed. If videos didn't show up here when less than 10% of the video was watched, then the risk of a lot of barely watched videos giving me false stats would be greatly reduced.
I do know the "notify progress"-option could do some of this, but I don't think it can do exactly what I want yet. I could get a notification after 10% of the video was watched, but I can't turn of the initial notification, so this would just give me two notifications, one shortly after the other. It would also not help with the stats problem. Is this something you could do something about in a future version of the app? I read the plans for the first beta and realize you have a lot of other features to work on, so hopefully you'll find the time.
I was able to get the database onto the server. Now how do I configure the laptop to read off the servers database instead of having it's own database? They are also both showing as "Primary". Is there a way for me to set the laptop as "Secondary"?
Sodarngood is seeing the same thing I have seen since I started using PlexNotify back in early April. I have a 4yr old and she will watch parts of movies or tv shows, they are usually being shown as fully watched when she is watching a small percent of them. But then counter to that I have seen her watch some movies 50+% then turn them off and they are not counted as having been watched.
Getting back to your Beta list 0.0.1.0. What is your time frame for this being released? Going to continue the incremental updates as you do bug fixes then as those dot upgrades get closer you will release?
Can you add to the list the ability to click on the various data on the Overview screen? I really want to have the ability to see Concurrent Connections, what is being watched, who watched it, the devices they were using, etc. I have 15 different people connecting to my server from around the country at any given time, some people have multiple kids in their homes also connecting. I want to see what they are all doing. The most connections I have is 7 at the moment, but i have no idea what or when they were. I really want to arrange a stress for my server and see how many connections the server can handle before people start to get frame drops or disconnects. I am thinking in the 20+ range.
Really liking that I have this running on the server. To give you some idea, the Server is seeing 0~.2-10.3% of CPU usage, where my laptop is seeing about 20-25% CPU usage. I am hoping if I can get the laptop to act more as a client and use the server info/db then the laptop wouldn't be using anywhere near that % of CPU.
Thanks again!
@James:
New crashes in Statistic Movies & Top Charts in v.0.0.71: When I click in these sections same problems.. Program crashs again!
Could you add in Loging Section in Advanced Sections with new ítem?, Now we have Error, Information,Debug, Warning... So, add Crash Errors... because Error ítem option only show me this:
http://prntscr.com/3jdq81
In old versión you add this information...
http://prntscr.com/3jdqrv
Incorporate again old information, please and I can email to you .log file.

Hi all thabk you for your feedback. For the webserver delete your web server directory in c/programdata/Plex Notify then restart plex notify. Let me know if it works. Also I will respond to your feedback later today.

You found a bug lol. the threshold is actually 3 minutes. it should not count it as a view it it is not past 3 minutes.
I was able to get the database onto the server. Now how do I configure the laptop to read off the servers database instead of having it's own database? They are also both showing as "Primary". Is there a way for me to set the laptop as "Secondary"?

What database are you using on the server? MsSQL or MySQL?

Thanks for the info! This information helps a lot. I will have this fixed asap. Try the steps below to fix the webserver problem. I also see some code in the settings page that is supposed to update the UI on the status of the server that is commented out. I will release a patch tonight.

Also to get back to alpha 70 you can go to Programs and features as if you where un installing it and click uninstall\change and select "restore this application to its previous state".

Aha, I never thought to try this, I'm now back on 70 and my CPU usage is back to normal. ie 0% usage except when polling when it momentarily peaks at about 30 - 50%
Autoupdate is disabled for now. Thanks!
