A simple Plex plugin for zatechshow.co.za, audio podcasts. Video is coming when Plex decides it actually can understand what an mp4 file is (I'm not bitter).

Assuming you already have a working Plex installation, grab the latest release from the downloads and double-click to install.

The Plex-ZA Tech Show_ plugin bundle is built from files in the bundle/ and templates/ directories. To build the bundle you'll need:

• Git
• Ruby & Rake (Both are bundled with OS X)

With those tools installed, get a copy of the source and install the plugin:

$ git clone git://github.com/singe/plex-zatechshow.git
$ cd plex-zatechshow
$ rake install

If you'd like to remove the plugin later, use:

$ rake uninstall

Or, rake uninstall:hard to uninstall the plugin and it's preferences and data.

If you wish to package your own double-clickable plugin installer, you'll need two additional build dependencies:

• The Plex App Maker
• The rb-appscript RubyGem (gem install rb-appscript)

Then, just run rake package and check the dist directory.

Under the same terms as Plex, GPLv2.

Thanks to Simon and the team for a fun show. This is my first Plex plugin. Plex documentation is uber-crap, and was more painful than it needed to be.

• I cloned this from Ches Martin's Vimcasts plugin.
• He in-turn cloned David Leatherman's Railscasts plugin.
• Rake build script cribbed from Rick Fletcher's MLB plugin.
