PS3 to Showtime

Open Liboicl opened this issue 11 years ago • 4 comments

When using a PS3 it automatically associates with PMS. Then upon launch of Showtime, the PS3 configuration is still used due to the IP address. I was looking at ways to fix this. The IP address is the preferred method of recognition. Perhaps there should be a new option added to the renderer configuration file to have PMS check the header each time. Thoughts?

Showtime and the PS3 are using the same IP address?

If so, you could restart PMS to reset its association.

Showtime is PS3. It is unofficial sw running on PS3 so the IP address of both is same but user agent is different.

Indeed. It is unofficial software. Resetting PMS does fix the association. This, however, is very tedious. I would prefer a way to have it automatically handle this situation.

If I add an additional option to the renderer configuration file to handle this situation, would it be accepted?
