d8ahazard / cast.bundle Goto Github PK

The cast plugin is choosing the incorrect IP to give the chromecast. I have two interfaces on my server, but the wrong one is being chosen. I didn't see somewhere I could configure or steer it so I hardcoded the correct IP and it works. Some sort of config to override if the automatic discovery fails might be nice.

Hi,

I installed the bundle via webtools and it shows fine in Plex/Channels. I see the devices, the broadcast test works ok (that is, the 2 devices broadcast the normal sound, nothing else).
When I visit the page http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:32400/chromecast/Devices?X-Plex-Token=......... I get an 404 error.
Any ideas?

Thanks!

Kind regards,

Geert

Installed cast.bundle with webtools and works great on Google mini speaker it won't recognize video Chromecast. Any help?

when trying to go to the new cast plug-in the page is erroring out

Is it possible as I view Plex through my phone and firestick using a remote server not a local one.

Your bundle starts with the word Plex!

This is NOT allowed by Plex!

You should rename it back again ASAP!

Hello,

I have installed phlex on a new xampp instance on dedicated server, even after adding the plugin "cast bundle" to the plugins folder of my server plex , i still have the error : "Cast Plugin not found" ;

I want to use Phlex with my raspberry, with OS Rasplex. Phlex can detect my rasplex but if I type for example :

• Play Black Panther

Phlex answer ok I play Black Panther (I see the title of the film with the year) but nothing is happening on my rasplex.

Can you help me please ?

Whenever attempting to Link Google Account I'm getting "File not found." when the webaddress resolves.

Is this possibly a bug or is there any way to get past this? Didn't see any previous posts with the same issue.

I continually get he message Cast plugin out of date, please update. I have the newest version as I just updated it, but continue to get the message...

Also, just today it stopped seeing all my cast devices with the exception of Chome when I have a Plex instance open in them.

Flex Tv is host on a debian Jessie docker,
Flex is host on a windows 10

thanks for you help :-)

Hey, this plugin is a great idea. Exactly solved the problem I obviously ran into when making a project.

So I got it to mostly work, device scan and all that works. But I'm trying to use the /play endpoint working but my Chromecast says "Sorry! Something went wrong" every time.

I've dived into the code and compared my request payload with a working prototype and they are pretty much identical. So I'm not sure what could be causing this right now.

I'm not finding anything relevant in the Plex logs either. I'd except some kind of error or maybe access denied or something there but nothing.

Any ideas?

Hi, I am having issues getting Flex to talk with the cast plugin. I have installed the cast plugin under plex and can see it enabled in plex. Even under plex I can do a scan and see it update devices.

However on the web page front end for Flex I am unable to see any devices to cast to and if I select rescan I get the "Cast Plugin not Found".

Any help would be appreciated.

A stupid question? I am running Flex TV in a docker container on my NAS at home where my TV and Chromecast are but my Plex server is in my parents house so using the cast.bundle obviously doesn't find anything and so Flex TV cannot find my Chromecast. It worked fine in v1 because I was able to assign a static device but that is gone in v2 (at least I cant find it). Is there a workaround for this? I only have one Chromecast I want to use so I dont need a scanning ability, I just want to tell it the ip of my CC to make the "call home"

Hi,

I am loving the idea of Phlex and have got it up and running with my Google Home to control Plex running inside Chrome, but I can't get Phlex to recognise my Chromecast. I have tried installing Cast.bundle through webtools and also manually, but the only action that seems to work is restarting the plugin. All other actions says "This plugin is not responding." instantly.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Does this addon work only over lan? I have a plex server on a VM abroad, and from what i've understood, Cast will not detect clients. Am i right?

@i have Plex installed on a Synology DS1817+ with Phlex running in a docker container. I have tried to install the cast.bundle plugin manually and via Webtools however Flex tv can never find it (it always finds the chrome browser I use). I'm definitely no software guru but it seems the plugin keeps crashing so is unreachable by Flex. The logs only show that there is no plugin found.

1242 [Sat, 23 Jun 2018 22:48:34 +0000] [ERROR] [a5pire][index::makeBody:makeMetaTags:getUiData:scanDevices] - NO PLUGIN DETECTED!!

I am also unable to link my google account with Flex TV.

my.serverip.address is not a publicly accessible address.{"speech":"Unable to look up user.","contextOut":[{"name":"playmedia","lifespan":2,"parameters":[]}],"data":{"google":{"expectUserResponse":false,"isSsml":false,"noInputPrompts":[],"richResponse":{"items":[{"simpleResponse":{"textToSpeech":"Unable to look up user.","displayText":"Unable to look up user."}}]}}}}

Would really appreciate some help regarding this @

Hello,

I have installed phlex on a new xampp instance , even after adding the plugin "cast bundle" to the plugins folder of my server plex , i still have the error : "Cast Plugin not found" ;

Can you help me please ?

Hi,

I have connected my Plex server and my home network via OpenVPN.

If I connect from another machine to the OpenVPN network, Chrome detects my Chromecast.
However, the Cast plugin does not see the Chromecast at all.

Is there a way to get the cast plugin to attempt discovery on the local subnet(s), rather than 0.0.0.0?

MUST replace the Icon in Resource directory with a new one

Getting this same issue as #16 but with a little twist.

I'm in a VPN environment. I'm wondering if IP address fetching is still an issue.

I installed your plugin with WebTools, and I see it register as Cast in the Plugins list. However, clicking on any of the buttons results in the error "This plugin is not responding.". After testing the API endpoints, I can hit the root endpoing (http://localhost:32400/chromecast?X-Plex-Token=XXXXXXXXXX), but all other routes ( http://localhost:32400/chromecast/devices?X-Plex-Token=XXXXXXXXXX ) give the following error:

I've never written a Plex plugin, so I don't really know how else to help. Please let me know if any other info is needed to diagnose this.

Might be a good idea to make master the default branch, and merge into that....

tommy-work branch is kinda misleading now :)
