Thanks again for this great addon  Wink

No but there is a workaround: go to the PlexKodiConnect settings, Sync, then Choose libraries to sync. DEACTIVATE all of them. Now if you want to use Plex content, navigate to Videos - Video Add-ons - PlexKodiConnect - [name of your Plex library]. That way, nothing is synced to Kodi

Hi All,
We are looking Plex users to give MediaImport a spin. The latest builds are here. Let's push to get it into master.

Cheers,
LongMan

Is there anyway to use PlexKodiConnect pointed at a remote server AND a local library on the same system running Kodi? If not is this something in development or could you please consider it?

@Croneter - it appears that PKC is setting the incorrect Container.Content type for images.

PKC is setting "Photos" as the content type. However, that is an invalid type. The correct content type for images is "images"
https://kodi.wiki/view/Skinning_Manual#Container
https://codedocs.xyz/AlwinEsch/kodi/group__python__xbmcplugin.html#gaa30572d1e5d9d589e1cd3bfc1e2318d6

Valid content types are: files, songs, artists, albums, movies, tvshows, seasons, episodes, musicvideos, genres, years, actors, playlists, plugins, studios, directors, sets, tags, countries, roles, images

Invalid content types make things difficult for skins that rely container.content() to determine which viewtype to set.
For instance, it will result in no viewtype in Arctic Horizon: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=351756&pid=2945745#pid2945745

No.

Just give pkc a while, up to a couple of hours. It caches your artwork in the background and your experience will improve

Yes. It's actually Kodi itself doing the caching. Might bean issue with the skin if navigation remains slow to load images!

Hello
I've just started using PKC to play my music. I think the interface is better than Plex app. However, I have one issue: the artist information is all written in capital letters, which is much more difficult to read than standard text. Is there any way of changing this?
Regards
Jim

Hah, never heard of that. That's an issue caused by either your Plex music scrapper or by Kodi or your Kodi skin. I'd bet on the skin. Sorry but I can't tell you more

It seems to work beautifully. My only two issues (Kodi 18 on Fire TV 4k with Aeon Nox Silvo skin) are:

1) The FAQ says libraries will be jumbled together unless I edit the menu shortcuts. Mine are NOT jumbled, but I'd like them to be -- I have two separated shared libraries of TV shows and would like them to be combined together when I choose TV Shows from the home menu, but this doesn't happen and I don't see any way to do this.

2) The FAQ says you can't have it so that selecting a movie will take you to its Info page rather than playing the movie. But on my laptop, with PKC and the same version of Kodi and same skin, it *does* take me to the Info page. On the Fire Tv, though, it does not, and the only way to get Info is to use the Context menu. Both installations have the skin setting of "select action = information" rather than play.

Other than these two things, it seems perfect.

I also want my library to be like this, have you found a fix?


RE: PlexKodiConnect: natively integrate Plex and Kodi - park13 - 2020-09-11

I have spent the last 2 days trying to figure out how to install PKC on a appletv that doesn't have USB C or USB?   Please help a newbie?

Can you download pkc to an external hard drive then plug it into your Apple TV. Then install from zip in kodi.
