Currently, it's not something I'm in control of. The ability to allow UK English is just not made accessible to me by google.
[Google Home] MrMaxP:
When I try to set the device to use, the dropdown box just displays "SELECT A PLAYER TO CONTOL".

When I installed for the first time, I only had 1 Roku device in the house and it linked to that. However, I ran into the "British English" problem so abandoned it for a few weeks. I've since set my device to US English and completed the Google link registration. Now, however, I can't select my second Roku or Chromecast from this menu. It does, however happily play anything I ask for on the first Roku device. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Max

Configuration of Phlex

It would be useful for the user to be able to configure how Phlex works for their location/setup.

An obvious setting would be the date format for the various logs and dates displayed on the screen.

The Phlex screen displays the date in the US format (mm/dd/yyyy) while the Phlex.log file reports the date in the format (dd mmm yyyy) but the actual time reported is based on a US time zone.

Would it be possible for the Phlex website to capture the data and time from the server that the site is running on formatted to the date format used by the server?

Many thanks,

Tony
[Google Home] digitalhigh:
It's been a few days, and I've made some changes to the device discovery mechanisms. Is this still an issue for you?

There is a line somewhere in php.ini that you should configure to tell Phlex what the system locale is - that's why I picked a default locale - chicago/US is just the fallback in case it can't detect the system locale.

For the date format displayed in the UI and logs - would you mind submitting a feature request on github for that? I'm totally down to incorporate it, I just might not have time for it for a little while yet.

Hi, saw this and thought it was a great idea. Having a problem getting the server registered. I have tried on a different computer from the server and also on my phone and this is the response I get when I click on "Register Server": "

success

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Serialization of 'SimpleXMLElement' is not allowed' in [no active file]:0 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in [no active file] on line 0

Unable to connect to Client at jbspence.mynetgear.com:9999/Phlex, please check the setting for 'Public Address' in the Phlex UI."

I have a Netgear Nighthawk R7000 router with Dynamic DNS active and I am using that name followed by the port number/Phlex. I receive this on both the computer and my phone (with wifi off).

Phlex server is Fedora 25 server, computer is Fedora 25 Xfce and my phone is Nexus 6P running custom rom Nexus Pure. Hope that is what you need to know of the setup, if not tell me what is needed and I will add.

Any suggestions/info/help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hello,

First of all: This is so far the best application of Google Home! Congratulation!

I also have the problem, that if Phlex is installed on the same PC as Plex-client, it doesn't recognize Plex. That's why I would like to install it on my Synology NAS like Tony did. Does anyone know how to do this?
[Google Home] StevenBX:
I'm really struggling to get this up and running. I've tried to install it using the XAMPP method and the Docker method (which is theoretically easier), but neither work. Both just show blank or 404 pages when I try to get to Phlex on localhost. I don't think it's a port forwarding thing, as I'm struggling even with localhost.

Trying to get this working is driving me insane, particularly as it's really the thing I most wanna use my Home for. Any tips on how to get it working? Or is there a more thorough installation/setup guide somewhere?

Edit (9/16): Finally got this working weeks later with a newer Phlex release. I think the previous version's index.php had some weird error in it.
[Google Home] ethan.r.besbris:

Hello,

First, Great job on Phlex. Its the coolest function for Ghome.

Im having an issue with the api tokens. I had everything working, except for my chrome cast. In trying to fix it, i corrupted something. I get errors now after i ask phlex tv to play something.

Trying to sign in userj

Sorry, Couldnt validate user

Invalid API token, Forcing out.

I have tried a complete install from scratch, and removed Phlex from my plex account, but i cant get the link account interaction to happen again. When i say talk to Phlex tv, It acts like everything is working properly and says to say help for a list of commands.

What steps to i take to start completely over?

Thanks for the help and the awesome program!!

DigitalHigh - this is amazing! I bought both a Home Mini and an Echo Dot and was super dissapointed to see they had no path to playing local music. Streaming is fine but what about all us folks with digital music collections to go along with it. Then I found Phlex :) You're a genius.

I've only just got it working this morning and have successfully got my Google Home Mini to play music on a Plex client but for the life of me I can't stop playback? I'm using "Stop playback on office." where office is the name of the client. I've also tried it without using the client name. Any ideas?

Also I assume this will work across multiple clients by appending "on clientname"?

Thanks so, so much much for your efforts.
[Google Home] fvig2001:
I've set it up based on the instructions at github but my problem is that it only works when used with a plex player running on Chrome. It does not play music at all to my google home or chromecast audio. I also keep getting like unauthorized request IP even though my IP at home and my internet did not change. I also do not hear the reply from Phlex TV.
[Google Home] icanfly77:
I've got this working and it can integrate with Google and see my chromecasts but nothing is working when I ask it to play a movie says it cannot find

anyhoo my main question is under devices, should I be able to see my Plex Home Theatre running on my media PC (not the same PC where Phlex is running from) because this is the main PC I use for watching Plex and I would like to have PHT running and just tell Plex to Play, Stop, Pause etc

Thanks!
[Google Home] icanfly77:
Ok so as per my previous post, I worked it out in case any others having issues. I was still using Plex PHT which has since been abandoned but I still thought it would show up but no.. Switched to OpenPHT and all good!

A couple of things I noticed though with the instructions they differed for me, I hope I have still done it properly

1) in the XAMPP php.ini there are instructions to uncomment out the socket line:

;extension=php_sockets.dll

This line actually didn't exist at all in my php.ini with latest Windows x64 version of XAMPP (even commented out) so I added it and seems to work

2) Setting up with Google was different, the version of Phlex I got didn't have a register server button. It has a link with Google button and a link with Amazon. Hitting link with Google did everything for me, I didn't have to tell Google Home to Talk to Flex TV which would trigger to link with Google again, nor did I get a card in my Google Home to link Phlex.

So for the above after linking with Google this seemed to do all that for me? I mean it's working after doing just that so I assume that's now correct

Cheers to the OP and loving this!
[Google Home] jcott28:
I had a problem with the most recent version and not playing on my Shield. It likely has nothing to do with the shield, but in looking at the logs, the shield was trying to connect to my server (external) on port 443. My server does use https, but its on a high port like 23456. That port was being overwritten by the playMedia call to set it to 443. I've posted a pull request for a fix I put in. But until that time, if interested, you can just modify your api.php page.

On (or around) line 3102:

$serverPort = $server['port'] ?: $server['scheme'] === 'https' ? 443 : 80;

Replace that with:

$serverPort = $server['port'];

// previous method of getting port was changing port to 443 and overriding the actual https port.

// This method only overrides the port if one was not found in the URI

if (empty($serverPort)) {

$serverPort = ($serverProtocol === 'https') ? 443 : 80;

}

Hope this helps anyone having a connectivity problem.

2) my older model samsung with old type of plex works, becaus there is a settitng in that app "adertise as player" this is working

3) BUT , i have multiple devices on my network connected , chromecasts, and samsung, so if i want to use IFTTT , how can i send a command to a SPECIFIC device?

4) my older samsung, if i want to add that device manually in the devices list of phlex, how can i do that? i see the samsung in the discovered list, if i hover over it with the mouse , i see it advertised as 192.168.0.50:32400 ??? how is that possible, thats my plex PMS server, not even the IP of the samsung tv :)

Greets Members-

Finally got this beast of phlex to at least see flextv and return back a usable api. Last night was tough ...just trying to get this to work had me a little confused. Great interface however. Easy to work and flow!

Here is what was stopping my issue.

I did NOT have flex tv media server installed. (you need to have this to point to your media you want to stream)

One I installed the server and pointed to my music. Was able to at least see and get connected via phlex for the interface connections on the web interface.

Now google home still wont play a darn thing. It see flex now just wont play.

Still playing with the settings in hope I can work something out.

Any advice?

I'm a newbie to this technology. Apologies in advance if this isn't the correct forum, but I've been trying to get a foothold in the tools/APIs/code involved. I bought a Synology NAS and Google Home Minis/Chromecasts, to play my voluminous MP4/MKV file library (5K DVDs), mostly because

I read that Google supports DLNA, while others didn't broadcast it. Now, I'm trying to understand the mechanism between the Plex Media Server, and the Google Home app. Several videos show that it CAN be done, but not WHY it can be done. I'm a hardware engineer (mostly VHDL/Verilog ASIC), that's dabbled in software (C++, Perl, OOC, minor Java, etc.) during my 35-year career. I don't pretend I'm more than a novice, but is there some page that can explain what is going on? Much Mahalo, in advance!

Language dependency

Yes linking to Google also doesn't work with Swedish language set on Google Home.

This is a major problem, users all over the World will most definately not want to switch languages on their systems just to connect Google to Phlex.

You as a developer will probably have to launch multiple instances of the main phlex server application, one for each language code (in my case 'sv') in order to get it running properly.

Please investigate this matter further ; while it might be a mild inconveniance for someone who needs to set their British English system to instead speak US English the requirement to set Everything to US English is a a total disaster for most other languages/countries.
