PseudoChannel.py - Your Home-Brewed TV Channels

Generated HTML schedule

How to Use:

  • Pseudo Channel is a script that interfaces with the Plex API, it runs independently of both server and client. Current supported clients are those that show on in the plex API clients page (http:///clients?X-Plex-Token=). Pseudo Channel is capable of managing schedules for multiple channels. When a channel is activated, Pseudo Channel directs Plex, through the API, to play movies and shows according to a schedule. The script also supports filling time between media with any libraries defined as 'commercials'. The web interface allows for easy
  1. Update:
$ sudo apt update
  1. Install python-pip & Git:
$ sudo apt install python-pip git -y
  1. Create download the setup.py script to the root directory of where you would like Pseudo Channel installed
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FakeTV/pseudo-channel/main/setup.py .
  1. Run the setup and follow the prompts:
$ python3 setup.py --install

NOTE: it is recommended to have python3 set up as the default when python is run https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/setting-python3-as-default-in-linux/

You need to have your Plex server IP and Plex Token handy as the install script will ask for them.
