Well, here it is. The first public version of a community proxy-server for plex smarthub devices:
Is this different to @Orca 's version?
not really. it is written in another language and has up until now just one slight adjustment (more down below)
WTF?
community supported means, that even if @Orca won’t release any updates anymore, the community can fix some minor issues that might arise
Howto?
just got to the github page and RTFM. https://github.com/kadrim/proxy4plex
if anything weird happens, open an issue there
The Future?
currently the proxy server is behaving as close as possible to the reference design by @Orca . One thing i already changed is the IP-Address detection. This could lead to a problem when your PC/Server has multiple IP-Adresses, the wrong one could be selected for forwarding requests. In the community edition this has been addressed.
the following tasks will be completed shortly:
- detect OS and allow User to install the proxy as a boot-service
- serve as sideloading server so no need to manually run SammyWidgets
- porting to Android and iOS
- auto-update notifications
And don’t forget, hit that donation button for @Orca 's hard work!
