If a user's favorite team is playing in the selected game, that team's audio/video should be selected instead of the default. There should also be a preference to disable this behavior.

MLB.tv and Gameday subscribers have access to archived games. They should be able to browse archived games by date:

MLB.tv/
  Today's Games/
  Yesterday's Games/
  Archive/
      2008/
        April/
        ...
      2007/
        ...

The option should be given to watch the condensed version of a completed game. I've separated this from the stream choice feature (#1) because condensed games do not use the same player.

Some thought needs to be given to the UI for this, and stream choice in general.

The games list currently sorts by game start time, and doesn't take game status into account. It should sort the same way the various sports sites do, which is in-progress games first, then upcoming games, then completed games, and each of those groups of games sorted by start time.

For upcoming games, the start time should be displayed in the right column of the game menu (where duration is displayed in the highlights menu). For games which have already started, the status (in-progress, final, postponed, etc.) should be displayed here.

This is not possible in current versions of Plex.

Add support for fast-forward and rewind. At least for archived games, possibly for live games if the player allows.

Requested by sweeptheleg and convergent on the plex forum.

It would be nice to be able to directly select an inning -- any inning for an archived game, or a previous inning for a live game. In the case of a live game we should be able to jump back to live action, too.

"I would like something like a Watch My team button that just takes the user into their team's broadcast. The fewer remote/mouse clicks the better in an HTPC environment. I would leave the other menu there so users can select games as well, maybe just a shortcut."

(via pdmahaf on the plex forum)

When selecting a game, a users should be prompted to choose among the available feeds. Currently the default (the home team's) is played.

The section "Team Highlights" only shows highlights from around April 2008 and nothing current. "Plays Of the Day" is also behaving in the same manner.

Is there an additional plug in that I need to view the condensed games?

Show team logos as icons any time there's a list of teams

All content pulled over HTTP should be cached, so that subsequent requests load faster.

we need new states in the player config for audio playing/paused

The menu item counter at the bottom right of the screen always says "items." It should say "teams" for team menus, "games" for game menus, etc.

Games that haven't yet started should display expected starting pitchers in their description.

Add support for alternate audio streams (usually spanish), which are played in a different media player, and therefore require a new site configuration.

"Final, (#) Innings" should not appear if a game goes into extra innings.

The description of games which are called early due to rain, etc., should be the same as it is for final games which go the full 9 innings. (They should include final score, W/L/S pitchers, ...)

MLB's player supports watching multiple, simultaneous games. It would be nice to somehow support this via the plugin. (Probably by letting the user select two games via Plex menus first, then launching the player, but this is an implementation detail that will be decided on later.)

When you stop streaming one of "Today's Games", the status info displayed on the menu screen is the same as when you started the stream. That menu shouldn't be cached, so that game status is up to date whenever it's in view.

The game list should behave in a similar manner to mlb.com's when listing "today's" games. The behavior is something like:

if time < 11:00 AM EST, show yesterday's list
else, show today's

MLB.tv subscribers may want to explicitly choose to listen to a game, rather than watch it. This could be implemented as part of #1, but might be a separate menu instead.

The description for an in-progress game should include the current score.

Hi developers, congrats on a great app -- amazing use of Plex. I've also though run into a weird problem that I can't get a fix on. When I'm watching mlb games in plex, the mlb video archive menu will pop out of the left hand side of the screen at random times. I can't do anything with it, it won't respond to keyboard commands) and have to exit the mlb app and re-enter it to make the menu go away --- but then it pops out again after a few minutes. any ideas? thanks in advance.
