Theme Idea (Enhancement) #27

Open Bboy486 opened 3 years ago

Bboy486 commented 3 years ago

An idea for a theme would be to mimic what Steam or playnite (gaming front-ends) do where they have the graphic in the background and have the poster be the focal point. It could pull from the media folder that plex creates for the background image. This would let this script to be used in different uses that just a black background.

ex. Radarr - https://prnt.sc/ve4cip

We have made a few more releases.

Once you have a chance to update, please let us know if your background is working correctly now.

Thank you

I am updated but I am just getting a black screen.

Steps cd cd Plex-Movie-Poster-Display sudo git checkout dev sudo git pull sudo cp -R * /var/www/html

cd /var cd www cd html

restore config.php from local folder

sudo chmod -R 774 /var/www/html/ sudo chown -R pi:www-data /var/www/html/

I should note this is the same pi that is running Pihole/PiVPN. Pihole uses the html folder as well but hasn't been an issue before.

I just cleared cache images and toggled it off and on.

Yes. another user has also reported an issue with a black screen. I am working on a fix and hope to have it ready this afternoon.

If you don't want to wait. It seems that if you reenter your config information clean then it will be fine.

@Bboy486 I got the black screen as well when updating to the latest 2.10.5 and restoring my config. I had to redo the 2.10.5 update but then I manually put all of the config entries and now I'm working successfully with 2.10.5. I believe it's something with importing the saved config file. 2.10.4 works for me with importing the config file.

ZeroCoolGOS commented 3 years ago

I believe it has to do with the refresh values that went into 2.10.5. I have a fix in the works and am trying to test/duplicate with an older config.

I tried this and it did not work.

Also checkboxes for caches images and any changes need to be checked, saved, checked again as it is not registering on save.

The changes are taking the first time. There is a bug when the page reloads after a save, that the change is not reflected right away. A second reload of the page will yield the correct values.

I still have not found a fix for this issue. I believe it might have something to do with the growing number of options we have, and we may need to look at moving to a new file type for the config values.

I am hoping that the v.2.10.6 will resolve the restore issue, as I have not been able to recreate the issue you guys are having but I thinking I had a good idea as to where the bug was.

@Bboy486

As if 2.11.x I have adjusted the time issue with saving and seeing the changes so now you should be able to save and when it reloads, your changes should be reflected.

Bboy486 commented 3 years ago

The save seems to work now. I still have a black screen so I cannot test anything else. (on latest dev)

ZeroCoolGOS commented 3 years ago

@Bboy486

Glad to see the save is working for you now, but I don't understand why your not seeing anything when it comes to running.

Its been a while since you have been up and running. Sorry for that.

Can you provide me with a latest copy of your config (sanitized of your token)? I will see if there is anything wrong inside the config file for it to be causing you an issue.

Also how many log files have been generated?

Bboy486 commented 3 years ago

Custom Logs: 12 Items in cache/logs

configsanitized.txt

ZeroCoolGOS commented 3 years ago

Thank you.

Is this the latest version that comes out of your PMPD after you have made adjustments such as just testing the save?

Bboy486 commented 3 years ago

yes it is

ZeroCoolGOS commented 3 years ago

@Bboy486 I will try and re-review this issue over the weekend and get back to you.

There is most likely a new build that you may want to take.
