LG recently released a Native app for HBO max for their WebOS...anyone know if there are Control4 mini drivers available like there are for the other apps (Hulu, Disney +, Amazon Prime, etc)
-
Current set up...
Control 4 OS 3.2.1
Composer HE 3.2.2
Zidoo Player (Z9X) is integrated into Control 4 under the watch tab...see picture 1 and 2. Using a Zidoo player because of its ability to play anything and menus - Yes, I could convert all the movies and use something like Plex or Kodi or but I'm a Stars Wars and Marvel "Crazy" and dislike when I don't have access to the full menus and extras - sorry.
I transferred the movies I own onto a NAS drive and they show up under the Control4 My Movies (also under the watch tab - see picture 1) and show up perfectly on my iPad, iPhone (see picture 3), SR-260 and Neeo
When i select Control4 My Movies >>>> select a movie (I can see the metadata as well) = TV comes on or switches to input 4 + the selected movie plays via Zidoo player including menus, etc. It all truly works flawlessly and exactly how I want...
Being that Zidoo is not a common player my dealer didnt seem to familiar with the set up.
My issue...the metadata is totally jacked up. I can go into Composer HE and all the movies are listed (under Composer HE > Media tab > Movies > Video Media) but anyone who deals with Composer HE knows this is a cumbersome process to try and update metadata via Composer HE.
1. Possible solution 1 - Looking at the Zidoo website (https://www.zidoo.tv/Support/control4.html) (see attachment PDF from website) there seems to be a way to have the movie catalog (as they current show up under the Control4 My Movies) + the movies and metadata come via the Zidoo player - basically I would update the movie data via the Zidoo interface (super easy) then the updated metadata or newly added movies would show up on the Control4 interfaces.
2. Possible solution 2 - Is there a way to link the Control 4 My Movies to the old My Movies Collection program so I can update the metadata via the My Movies Collection program that would then auto update on Control 4
Looking for any solutions for easy update of metadata that is not thru Composer HE. Ok with remote programming if someone can help.
Help please
