What are the plans for the near future?

Yes, I installed the latest nightly build. But flagging didn’t work.

Maybe I have to deinstall it, and make a “clean” reinstall with the nightly build?

I dont see how all of this is related to the plans for PLEX in the future…



I really hope the library is editable and has all the proper flags.

im playing with xbmc to try out some different skins, some certainly have the wow factor, but i have not found anything with near the everyday usability of mediastream. also it is one hell of a pain in the ass to manually download all the skins from the xbmc forums, i cant believe that some people are hosting these on rapidshare. also many of them (i really love minimeedia, but its the worst offender) dont include any sort of artwork at all, you have to find that yourself and manually download and install that. i REALLY REALLY hope when plex gets a second and third and so on skin to a usable state, they are included in the app store. as a first time xbmc user, i have to say that while it has some impressive features we do not yet, it seems as if it is purposefully making it as difficult as it possibly can to install, setup and configure things.

To get anything for XBMC I always go here and avoid hunting the forums: [http://www.sshcs.com/xbmc/](http://www.sshcs.com/xbmc/)

Did you turn on the scanning metadata button? You may need to start with a fresh copy of the latest app version and a new library to match.

PLEX and XBMC are both inexorably intertwined. And while PLEX's particular direction has always tried to be more Mac-like, I think both the applications will always have some interaction between the fan base as skins, plug-ins, features and changes are made in both.

If you want to go back and forth with testing, one skin I loved over them all for XBMC was this one. For PLEX you just have to set the backgrounds manually and it worked fine. Only performance for art heavy sections suffered.

All the familiar looks of Mediastream, with for vast refinements and improvements of the interface.

I sincerely hope this skin finds a home in PLEX in the future.

With Snow Leopard coming out on Friday, is there any plans for Plex to take advantage of “Grand Central Dispatch” for multi-core processors? I think it would really help with making menus run a little snappier.

i really pray plex does NOT ever add a pervasive social networking layer. if i wanted to know which of my “friends” are watching porn and eating cheeseits at this exact moment and the entire world to know when im taking a ■■■■ and when im watching Pretty in Pink, id be using boxee.

If all you get from using social media is your friends' ■■■■ taking updates, you're doing it wrong.

I'd welcome a social networking layer to send and give recommendations to friends. Im sure if one would choose not to use these features that Plex would still work.
