What I want to do is have the house set up with different users so that everyone has there own on deck settings to track progress of the tv shows etc. I have this working fine when using other clients such as the iOS ones where each user has been setup to have their own myplex user with access to my server. When I login to the options on the pleXBMC add-on with a different userid it seems to ignore that and always shows the default on deck settings.
Do you know if this should work the way I described or is this a feature not implemented yet due to multiple user support only being for plexpass members currently.
Thanks again for the hard work that goes into this.
I would try making separate profiles in xbmc. Be sure to choose that settings are not shared and enable login screen. Then set main profile to use main myplex login and kids profile to login with their own (in plexbmc settings). Should work.
Let me know how if that works.
Thanks for the advice, however it is not working as expected. Maybe this is because everything is local (i.e. all in the same house) but no matter what I put into the plexbmc settings the on deck status is always the one of the default server.I tested with the plex web UI to see what the difference was in the calls to get the on deck sections and noticed this:
This is from PleXBMC:

And this is from the Plex Web UI:

I have no idea if that makes sense in debugging? Does this work for anyone else?
