Option to choose specific device "machine_id" only.

Currently all the client devices playing media from a specific plex server and user is being detected. In my case, i share my main plex account with friends and family for various reasons. So whatever they play is being detected too.

Would love for an option to whitelist only specific devices to being detected.

This is a good idea. In addition whitelist specific clients, it would be useful to whitelist specific libraries (e.g. want to exclude my anime library, or only include my music library). I don't particularly need it, but I've seen other tools allow selecting which user to listen to as well in case it's someone other than the server admin.

Hello,

First of all, I'm glad that you enjoy the app. Thank you for all the feedback. I've currently stopped maintainance on the current version, since some early development choices are now limiting regarding the most requested features. That's why I've decided to rewrite it completly, using :

• .NET 6 ( .NET MAUI for the UI)
• Discord Game SDK for better rich presence control compared to RPC API
• PLEX Websocket API, which will be more performant and flexible than the ReST API regarding requested features like this one.

Sadly, I'm a bit delayed by my own coursework in software engineering, whose last year is very time-consuming. And also by the pushback of .NET MAUI GA, but I expect to at least finish the PLEX Websocket API Client libraty by then.

Anyway, thank you all for the suggestion, which will all carefully be taken in account during the rewrite !
