Yes. Now it seems to work. In shared and in the local.
Great! Let me push that fix out now in the main extension.
Edit: v0.2.5 with the fix is out now
The issue was due to the way the extension fetched metadata for your shows/movies. It downloads an xml file containing the metadata from the server, and early on in development I made the (stupid) assumption there was only one server address, which is only true if the user was connected to just one PMS. After adding support for handling multiple servers I realized the other issue was that each server needed a unique access token. Requesting these xml files from each server requires me to authenticate with this token. Once I figured out where this token was stored, I had to modify the rest of the extension to be aware that multiple servers exist and to use the right server address and access token every time.
I have a request, not sure how hard it would be but would it be possible to put a current/future episode list similar to what google does when you search the series on TV shows?

That's a great idea, I'll look into if it's possible
The only thing stopping me from releasing this tonight or tomorrow is rotten tomatoes' ridiculously archaic terms and conditions for the use of their API. I've had to make separate requests to ask permission to use their logo, permission to use the API outside of the US, and permission to use branding images (the tomatoes). I've got the okay on all so far (with heavy restrictions on how I present and use their data) except using the API outside the US. For that they want me to pay $5000. A month :| This is by far the worst API sign up process I've ever had to deal with. Trakt, for example, immediately told me I could use whatever materials I want and gave me an API key (that I could publish in my source code!) before I'd even asked for one.
So this may take a few more days. I'll push the update as soon as I get the okay with regards to waiving the fee, if I do.
Thanks for the update - if RT doesn't work out, maybe another option could be Metacritic?
Unfortunately metacritic doesn't have an API. Without one I can only create very unreliable links and am unable to pull ratings (without resorting to scraping, which is probably against their TOS).
Regarding rotten tomatoes, it doesn't look like they're going to change their mind anytime soon. Particularly frustrating for me as I've spent a few days coding this all up, only to throw it all away because of some bizarre restrictions
imdb should be pretty straightforward to integrate, that's up next.
A easier implementation of plex watch status would be cool. IMDB linkage to ratings / watchlists could be nice.
Wikipedia perhaps?
Is intent of this Movie focused only, TV, pics? music?
Can you clarify what you mean by better implementation of plex watch status? Currently I'm focused on features for the movie and tv show sections, but longer term I may look at other sections. I always welcome feature requests though.
So an update on Rotten Tomatoes. We've come to an agreement that I can use the API if I include a check that the user resides in the US. So the feature will be disabled by default until the user opts in on the options page by confirming they are in the US. I'm just fixing up the data presentation to comply with their branding guidelines (urgh) and then I'll push the update out.

Interesting - at least all that hard work won't go to waste! Thanks
Pushed out v0.4.0, which adds rotten tomatoes support, and a lot of changes under the hood which should make some stuff easier for future development. This time rotten tomatoes is not enabled by default and you have to enable the feature in the extension options. Enjoy.
OMG, i love this for the random pick that i was waiting forever! One little request though: would it be possible to have it pick 3 or 5 random movies to choose between, or to limit the selection for example by duration? Thank you!!
This app is totally awesome. It puts a ton of information about a show on plex.tv at your fingertips. I am looking forward to the addition of the iMDB as I literally use it every day to manually update my metadata. It generally gives a shorter synopsis of a movie or TV show than the TMDB and TVDB agents the Plex Media Server utilizes. Having iMDB on plex.tv would dramatically reduce the time it takes to edit any metadata.

Yep, I've put that on my todo list. As for limiting the selection, I'm looking into the random picker respecting any current filters but it's looking difficult as what filters are active aren't exposed in the page source or javascript.

I took a break from adding movie sites to work on a new feature, but I'll have IMDB and themoviedb implemented soon.
I just noticed that the app is causing plex.tv to freeze up in state. I disabled the app and can see that it was the culprit as plex.tv unfreezes and begins to work as expected.

Can you turn on debugging in the extension options and then in a plex.tv tab open the console (ctrl-shift-j), copy and paste the contents (after the page freezes) into a pastie, and pm me the link?
Pushed out v0.4.1. It's a bug fix for the trakt plugin if you didn't use the standard 32400 port on your server (whoops). Thanks to mjbxx for reporting it.

If you are using PlexWWWatch I just did a pull request to show basic stats from plex watch if moussa.uk merges it.
