Supported App Store

In regards to this post:

Is there a way to have a bundle installed by default into channels just like the unsupported App Store but for official channels? It would be great to manage plex channels (bundles) from my aTV via plexconnect. Yes I know you can use plex web. Yes I know you can manage pms and add channels from a os. This is just for ease of installation. Using the unofficial App Store makes it EXTREMELY easy to install bundles. Why not have one for official apps just the same?


I also made this app yesterday to install the unsupported App Store on OSX. Looks like there is a windows one as well:

Channels lie at the PMS end and it was discussed a while ago about whether to add the facility to add/remove channels through PlexConnect. It was decided that there were a lot more things higher on the priority list, especially as Plex web makes this so easy and people don’t tend to install/uninstall channels that often.

Gotcha, just was wondering if it was going to be put on the roadmap in the distant future. It would be great to just click a few buttons on a app and add a few bundles to have access to all bundles by just using the atv remote for example once installed. I understand other things have a much higher priority then this. :slight_smile:

It wasn't even put on the roadmap because of it usually being a feature that is used so occasionally by most users.

TBH if they hadn't made such a nice job of Plex web then maybe it would have been a different story.

Don't get me wrong its nice to grab any device with a web browsee fire up plex web and add/remove channels but it would be great to just do it using my atv remote so I don't need to search for a client device every time I want to add/remove a channel.
