I'm really loving the Amber Skin and updated Plexbmc. I've got XBMC on an Openelec and Plexbmc with Amber blows away Plex Home Theater - you get the best of both worlds. Better XBMC playback and the benefits of Plex.

I was wondering if there was a repo for the updated skins/Plexbmc addons? I manually check the thread for any updates but it would be nice to have a repo.

Pecinko... I vaguely remember this being asked and I cant find a search on it... is it at all possible to integrate "tv tunes" addon for xbmc to work with plexbmc? I am sure it is more complicated than it sounds, but could that ever be a possibility?

I'm getting the same error (and same xbmc.log entries) with GDM, MyPlex and Manual config. You're right though, the server is on the LAN.

Edit: After a few reboots, it seems to be able to connect. Playback is a bit flakey, but I haven't adjusted any settings yet.

I am having the same problems and the same errors in the log. PlexBMC version 3.4.0.

Sounds good! Btw - magically worked after a couple of reboots. Playing just fine :-) I guess there still is an issue though. Not supposed to be that unstable.

Hello everyone,

I am having problem installing PlexBMC on my Raspberry Pi. I have RPi B Type (512 MB RAM). I installed OpenElec 3.2.4 and then tried installing PleXBMC without success. I tried using both the PleXBMC version 3.4.1 and the zip from github repo (plugin.video.plexbmc-frodo). In both cases I have the following error in my log:

You need to install version referenced in 1st post:

PleXBMC version 3.4.1 (MOD by pecinko, KodeStar, zeflash)
http://tinyurl.com/pt8omgo

Take a look at your add ons folder and delete every instance of plugin.video.plexbmc* . Download version 3.4.1 and install via "add from ZIP". Please report back.

I installed the version you mentioned, then installed the amber skin (had to update XBMC add-ons to overcome some dependency unmet problems for the skin). The skin loads but cannot display any of the Plex content. When I try to run PleXBMC from the Video Add-ons I still get a script error but my error is different now:

Pecinko,

Thanks for awesome work as usual... where can I find a change log?

- Home page sections should refresh properly
- Script error should be fixed
- Breadcrumbs should be improved

Guys try manually setting PMS IP address, add or remove MyPlex login, restart a few times.

This error is very weird as it suggest script has a problem parsing (valid!) XML file for some reason. You can try using element tree instead of celementtree (if you know your way in python) but script will parse at least 3-4 times slower. Am still not sure what exactly is going on.
