Yes sure, if u you upload it to the appstore, i could help you with the charges of a developper id?

Plus charge a couple of $£€, you guys deserve it.

Got it loaded. WTF icon! Great - needs a lot of work though.

WTF icon!

Not sure if this is meant to be a compliment?

Don’t know yet… should I?
Definitely and I would be happy to pay for it.

Hey guys! I got “stacked media” working. Along with the “resume” functionality and shuffle tracks/playlists. Looks pretty good to me… anyone able to do some test runs?

i don’t have stacks but shuffle tracks seem to work just fine so far.

Works for me too

I see it’s been updated since I installed it - how do I update?
Delete and re-install?

Just pull down from the repo, and then follow all the original steps you took to install it. It will just make the app updated with a blue dot on it on your home screen. No need to delete, just update it

Just a question, now that it’s possible to make a real app on the ATV4 would it possible to add an option to automatically play the next episode like netflix or is it something that needs to be implemented into PMS first ?

Aehm… that’s in there already - at least in old PlexConnect, isn’t it?
In the Episode list, hit PLAY to bypass the preplay screen. This should do a continuous play of all following epsiodes, if I remember correctly.

Lol !
Wow! I didn’t even know !!!
That’s great thanks, would it be a good idea to add a button to the preplay screen so it’s more “wife and kid friendly” or do you think it would clutter the screen too much ?

Hm.

  1. It’s off-topic. :smiley:
  2. PrePlay screen today doesn’t know about all those other episodes. It would need at least a second thought, but generally I guess it should be possible.
  3. Too much clutter? I don’t know - not the designer type myself.

Off topic, I found a arcade emulator (MAME) everyone can upload onto the aTV4 via Xcode thats ripe for forking:

Can’t wait to get a usb-c cable to test PlexConnectApp and other non app store apps:

Thanks @baa for the reply, sorry didn’t mean to go off topic, keep up the good work.

I’m trying to reload to get latest version and I keep getting a message in Xcode “Could not find Developer Disk Image” - what am I doing wrong?

No idea… haven’t seen anything even remotely similar.
Did you try to “clean” and rebuild the whole thing before installing?

I’ve no experience with Xcode whatsoever so I have no idea how to clean and rebuild - however it will work in the Simulator. How would I “clean and rebuild”?

Xcode->Product->Clean
Xcode->Product->Build

That doesn’t fix it.
