Cool! Glad it worked.

Jimstar, after using the plugin for awhile the viewport or the render screen no longer updates as the render is running. It displays 1 sample per pixel and then stops. Only after the render stops at the max samples does it display the final render image.

Do somebody have the same issue?

JS thanks a lot for another great beta and for all the fixes. LiveDB materials are now showing up OK but they're all open, I can't close them by clicking on their minus' signs. Anyone else having this issue as well?
I'll post a screenshot soon.

OK, some news, it's not a linux-only issue since it also happened on windows.

AndI also realized it's something that has to do with my scene. If I start a new scene in blender, the livedb behaves as it should, however, I noticed that applying materials to the default cube sometimes stacks materials up on top of each other creating a multi-material, and also, the rendered view doesn't update the material in real-time, you have to switch from rendered to wire mode and back for the materials to update (livedb+rendered mode can't work together?). I'm going to check my scene to see what's changed in it.

There is a refresh button next to the pause button, did you try that?

Regarding the materials being "stacked" issue (it creates new material slots versus replacing the selected one). I saw that for the Windows plug-in when I first tried the latest version. At first I though that they had modified it to work that way. Later on, when I restarted Blender, it was no longer doing the stacked thing. I even tried for about an hour to recreate it and was unsuccessful. No clue what it was, but I've not seen it since.
