PlexKodiConnect: Kodi Plex Integration Done Right

I’m not using Plex On Deck. For On Deck and Recently added movies I use a Kodi custom playlist and that will load almost instantly. Only problem is Recently added episodes, I can’t figure out how to bundle those items if I don’t want to use Plex Hub.

That’s exactly the issue :laughing:. Do tell me if you found a solution!

I will!

Hi, Is it possible to browse by folder home video whitch are store in multiple folder?
Because all files are shown together on kodi without folders
Thanks

Yes that’s possible. But what you want to do is split your different Plex libraries using your skin and the PKC video nodes. See here: Video Nodes and Skins · croneter/PlexKodiConnect Wiki · GitHub

Hi, I ever use video nodes to split my movies, animes, series.
But I create a new node for mixed home videos. My home video on it are stored on severals folders but all videos are shown together without folder.
Hope you understand my bad english

I don’t really understand. So you created your own video node? How? You could try and add a filter for the Plex library - just have a look at the PKC nodes in the Kodi userdata folder

Sorry I just create a home video folder on plex like movie and animes, series etc …
Inside I put several folder whitch contains some videos.
Infortunely in kodi when I go to my home video shortcut in the main menu of kodi, it show me all the videos together without possibility to browse on subfolders
My goal is to show the subfolders instead of all videos mixed
Hope its clear thanks

Just point the node you create to Addons - Video Addons - PlexKodiConnect - (name of your library) - (name of your library)

If it’s not what you want, try Addons - Video Addons - PlexKodiConnect - (name of your library) - Browse by folder

thanks you, it seems to work. it just take some extra time to load
thanks

@croneter how much code is shared now between PKC and Emby for Kodi, as the 2 have diverged quite a lot (This branch is 3914 commits ahead, 1474 commits behind MediaBrowser:master).

Should they be considered separate projects now or are there any changes being synced between 2 for possible improvements?

Same question for the Jellyfin for Kodi addon which is believe also shares same code.

Is there any plans to incorporate that intro skipping feature? My HTPC had to be reloaded and I was using the plex web app for a bit and it was pretty awesome.

If you need the Skip Intro now you can try out https://github.com/anxdpanic/plugin.video.composite_for_plex

Short answer: PKC is a different project now. Long answer: check Github and the source code :wink:

Why is that relevant, anyway?

The problem is that you need some kind of “button” on the Kodi side to skip an intro. PKC - up till now - features Zero GUI components. The skin you use would need to support that button. Thus the skip intro feature is a low priority feature request right now…

Is there a way to have it do the intro skips without any input? Like just a toggle in the main settings to skip all intros and have it send the button signal? I really have no idea how it works :smiley:

Just curious :slight_smile: Cheers.

Hi all,

I have PKC on my Odroid N2 running CoreELEC 9.2.4.2 and I’m getting the following entries in kodi.log each time I select the TV Shows Kodi Library menu item.


2020-10-15 13:34:10.404 T:3915350912   ERROR: DoWork - Direct texture file loading failed for resource://resource.images.studios.white/AXN España.png
2020-10-15 13:34:10.405 T:3915350912   DEBUG: GetImageHash - unable to stat url resource://resource.images.studios.white/AXN España.png

I know it’s because AXN España.png does not exist in the add-on Studio Icons - White, but why is PKC ‘looking’ for this PNG?

TIA

PKC is not doing anything here, sorry

Has anyone had a similar problem? “Database disk image is malformed”.
