Yes, you certainly can customize the script, but you'll need to provide the parameters that associate your video file to Trakt's library in another manner (Trakt Seen Show API).

I can see using this plugin as a good reference/starting point if I ever get time to morph Interfaced.py into a bonafide plugin. If I ever have a need for further information on a video I'll just pull it up on my iPhone from any one of my librarys (Sickbeard/Couchpotato/Plex/Trakt). I have found it to be too distracting with all of the displayed metadata. The xbmc plugin is great since it can be applied to Plex as well. Once that branch is cleaned up and ironed out I might revisit it down the line. Its just not as user friendly, simple, or as established as Plex. Pms-mlx Is a sound concept, however I find to be a bit cumbersome to manage media.
#PS3 MEDIA SERVER VS PLEX PS3#
Hence "Interfaced" was born, a blend of two great worlds Plex Media Manager and PS3 Media Server, As I mentioned earlier, up until writing Interfaced.py there wasn't a tool that would satisfy my needs, that includes the PS3 Media Server (any branch, including pms-mlx, nor the xbmc plugin), tversity, servio, orb, playon, plex etc. This has made my life easier, maybe it will do the same for you.Īny steps/attempts to provide an ultimate Media Library and Media Server solution is definitely worth taking a look at. This script is my attempt to solving a long sought after solution to a versatile Media Library and Media Server system.

So I decided that marrying the two provided the best solution that satisfies my nit-picky needs. After using Plex for a few weeks I just cant get enough of the various indexing options available (Recently Added, Watched, On Deck, etc.), I just wish the Plex DLNA playback on the PS3 was better (Plex transcodes my media even when PS3 can natively play it).

Plex is an excellent media library host and indexing tool and it happens to support DLNA. The tool is extremely versatile at serving all types media content to my PS3, however the only feature that I find lacking is support for functional media library indexing. I am a long time fan of PS3 Media Server. The Interfaced script is the conclusion of this process. So I have finally made the jump and migrated to alternative tools which have proved useful in streamlining my media consumption process.
#PS3 MEDIA SERVER VS PLEX TV#
After I watch the show I move the file to a storage folder and add it to my digital library using TV Rename. I have been retrieving media and storing it in a dedicated new arrival folder, which is served with PS3 Media Server. My media consuming habits have been strewn with many manually intensive processes. I want to maintain a neatly organized media library and I want to easily access my new content on my PS3 without having to drill down all the layers of structured folders.
