I want to use a second monitor attached to my HTPC to show ‘Now Playing’ info. It works well using a browser in the remote control mode, but it won’t stick on the right screen. Once playback stops the browser jumps to a different view. Is there any way to get it to stick on this screen (hidden setting maybe?):
Perhaps you should explain a bit better what you want to achieve.
The screenshot you posted has not much to do with ‘Now Playing’.
AFAIK Now Playing looks more like this:
Sorry for not explaining better. I am trying to use a browser window on a second monitor to replace Frontview+ which is not currently working with the newest release of Plex Media Player.
It shows stats about what you are watching on the main TV, including the progress bar.
Perhaps a link to the Frontview+ website would be a better explanation than I can type!
I think there is no way to achieve this without frontview. The maximum you can get is either the ‘Now Playing’ page from Plex Web or the main page of PlexPy
Okay. Thanks for your input. I’ve nor used Plexpy so I’ll take a look at that.
