A way to mark multiple episodes watched at once from the UI would be awesome.

Thank you so much! I deselected No spoilers without OSD in PM4Kā€™s Video Player settings, which restored normal behaviour.

I fine-tuned my setup by choosing -10 and +10 for Skip steps in Kodiā€™s Player > Videos setting, and then went ahead and enabled the Use skip step settings from Kodi in PM4Kā€™s Add-on > Player settings. Iā€™ve not enabled Use Plex/Kodi steps for timeline.

Now everything works exactly as Iā€™d like it to. Thanks again!

Wait, what did that setting fix/break? Also what I was talking about: You enabled this probably on your first run of the addon, right? :smiley: Because itā€™s not enabled by default.

Sometimes I forget to press Skip Intro. Would be nice if pressing a button to show the OSD after skip intro has disappeared on screen (but is still available to be selected), would jump straight to the skip intro button so I can turn 4 button presses into 2.

1 to wake up the OSD, 1 to press enter and skip the intro.

Yeah. There are multiple optimizations possible here. Itā€™s getting hard to ā€œget it rightā€ for everyone, though. I have this on my list already to explore this.

Thanks!

Correct, I enabled it while playing around with the settings and, in hindsight, without quite understanding it! I think I felt it was broken because I wasnā€™t expecting it to do +30 and while playing around with it maybe thought that it was skipping chapters.

I now realise that, IIRC, the native Plex player does the same (-10/+30). However, I think this potentially gets a little confusing in PM4K as, unlike in Plex which has a subtle animation, there is no on-screen indication of the skip duration.

Hey! Thanks again for this wonderful addition to my setup! I have 2 features on my ā€œwishlistā€ that Iā€™d like to mention Iā€™m not sure if the second has been mentioned previously or not. Iā€™m pretty sure the first has though. The first is collections on home (like default Plex). The second is what I call ā€˜collection collatingā€™ ie ā€œCollectionā€ in both TV and Movies library would show their items in ā€œCollectionā€ no matter which library viewed from (again like default Plex). Just wanted to toss that out there; absolutely 0 rush of course. Thanks again!

You got AM6B+?

5133

yes he mentioned it in a later post.

5134

Btw, for A14, are you using latest NG build or specifcically CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-21.2-Omega_20250302082815 one?

5135

it does not matter, you can start with stable 21.2 then update to A14, I use custom version of CPM that is newer than A14.

5137

Is it open source or youā€™ve build it for yourself? If itā€™s open source, maybe you could share what youā€™re using? :slight_smile: Thanks.

P.S Not sure if 21.2 is possible to use, because then there will be no FEL support, as itā€™s running on 5.X kernel, unless A14 downgrades it to 4.9

5138

this is the build I run.

what I mean with 21.2 is Omega NG stable and update to CPM version.

Random question, how do I install the plextuary skin? I feel like I am missing something simple here. Lol

Here you go:

5142

Oh silly me. I have been looking at the wrong repository the whole time. Lol. Thank you!

Anyone who uses SMB on CoreElec or even Android? I was using it for path mapping with Plex. I used SMB with a password for months, but when I ran some tests, I left it passwordless for about two days and ran into complications. I recommend leaving your Windows system requiring a password to access SMB. I had 5TB of movies and series that were open on SMB without a password hacked by ransomware. Fortunately, I was able to download them again, but imagine if it were a shared folder with more sensitive files. Another recommendation when sharing the folder on Windows: leave read-only enabled. Chers. Thanks for the constant updates, panni!!

So you exposed a consumer windows port 445/139 to the internet without authentication? I ask this specifically because exposing anonymous shares within a local network isnā€™t an issue per se. Doing so on a windows machine and exposing the ports is a massive no go, though, IMHO.

I think so, then I checked and the modemā€™s DMZ mode was also activeā€¦ I disabled DMZ mode.

5146

Oh yeah. DMZ fully exposes a machine. Never ever use that in a private network :smiley:
