Movie Poster Sync (kodi/plex) Feature Inquiry

There's not currently, though if you're in the discord and ask there I think QWK has a way to get it mounted. I should have a doc update here in a few days that has it as well. The mounting of the nas is currently outside of dynaframe...if you mount it into your pictures folder then any subfolders you have should show up in Dynaframe fairly easily. But getting it mounted can be a bit of a bear in linux. Are you using a nas there you can access through cifs/windows?

Having trouble setting up a NAS, I can't seem to get the file structure correct, I can ping my NAS but can't get mount the folder/drive. running Pi4(4GB) with April release. Is there a detailed description of how to do this? or could one be implemented?, like a background script when adding new file directory? Thanks for the help, love the project!

Thankyou so much, this has been relayed to Lou and he was excited because this gave him much of the data he needed to design and prototype. No promises yet, other than we'll make sure to find you when we're ready to beta test it :)

Hey Joe! Saw your post first thing this morning and I'm excited the team is gathering data on direct integration! For myself, I used MoviePosterApp for a bit, however, the app would delete or erase the config file, meaning I'd have to restart it a lot. I love the DF way of showing posters I want natively (even if it's not for movies), and then I liked their Plex integration on the local server. I've also dabbled in Posterr app. They've recently moved to a Docker only method, and I had lots of docker issues, so I'm running their old version sometimes. I actually use the localhost version on the web portal of DF if I'm feeling REALLY brave! Currently, I have both Plex and Emby but use Plex almost 100% of the time. My method with Dynaframe includes using Tautulli to use web hooks to send URLs to DF with data from Plex based on start/stop/pause/resume data. Tautulli has plex data from the local API connection including poster, title, etc. which is passable to DF. It works probably 90% of the time, but sometimes gets hangup or doesn't get a 'stop/pause' signal. I've talked about this in the discord group and the script is great, but a native integration would be probably that missing 10%. 1. This brings me to your first question, is that yes, I would love for the current playing poster to Override whatever on screen, and then resuming normal playlist functionality when the content is either paused/stopped. This is how I've currently set it up and how MPA did as well. 2. In the setup (Tautulli, Posterr, MPA), you choose the Libraries from the server you are connected to. The apps I've used before use a secure x-plex-token from a URL, meaning you're logged into a single server at a time (differentiated by ports). If someone has multiple Servers and not multiple libraries, they're probably not being efficient and are in a small percentage. In MPA, you also can set priority for Plex, Emby, etc. so it pulls whichever is higher as displayed. 3. All Plex and Emby content have posters or at least a screenshot of the media as data in the Plex API/webhook content. As far as I understand, this is not an option to be poster less. However, I would leave it to the Plex/Emby owner to make sure their library is up today. If they can handle DF posters, they should be able to ensure content scraping and/or custom posters are setup in Plex/Emby. 4. N/A 5. I have Plex and set it up for a few dozen external users. Same with my family, they can use it and love the simplicity and accessibility. Emby is something newer I'm testing, but the interface isn't as clean or familiar. I see value in both, however, Plex has always done right by me for the past 10+ years.
