A rare and beautiful #plexamp release landed this morning, and it's a thing of beauty!

Extra focus on gapless playback (hugely important) *and* an update to the chromecast library make this a win in my book.

(Those two things are in conflict with each other of course. Chromecast doesn't do gapless!)

#StreamToMe and #ServeToMe is what I used to stream my music pre-#AppleMuisc / #Spotify. This is what I really want but updated. No cloud service to log into just from my home server to whatever and wherever I want to stream to. Make a client like #PlexAmp. #Streaming. It still works even though it’s been years since it was updated.

Real happy with the latest version of the #tidarr app (running via #docker).

The latest version is super fast in downloading and pushing the content up into #plex

Nothing like #tidal with #tidarr to refresh my local lib to full #flac

Time to enjoy some more old tunes in super high bit rate via #plexamp

Compliments to Mr. Clément for his work with Tidarr solution: https://github.com/cstaelen/tidarr

Great!

#Plexamp's random album radio offered me Deadlight (2007) by Before The Dawn to listen to. I gladly accepted the offer #NowPlaying #MittwochMetalMix

One of those afternoons/evenings when I don’t have to go anywhere. Time to catch up on some #selfhost #homelab things.

(puts #plexamp on random…)

Here is some Arsis for #MittwochMetalMix, #Plexamp informed me that Starve for the Devil was released fifteen years ago today

Tein erilaisia kokeiluita musiikkisovelluksilla ja päädyin lopulta @rolle'n suosittelemaan @plexamp'iin.

Toimi kotona, toimi autossa puhelimen ja bluetoothin yhdistelmällä ja toimii myös työkoneella selaimen kautta. Hyvältä vaikuttaa!

#linux #audio ppl please help!

I'm running #ubuntu 24.10 and using #mkchromecast to connect to speakers in my house, pipewire and qpwgraph to connect that up apps like #Cider and #Plexamp

My problem is that whenever I stop playing audio then restart it it resets all my #pipewire connections, disconnects from the mkchromecast sink and reconnects to the default system audio

Is there anyway to stop this happening. or other tools that will work better?

Weirdness. When ripping a CD on my #Mac I have it set to eject when complete. When it ejects it will pause what playing on my #iPhone ( Using #PlexAmp ). #Apple

Did not listen to much music in December, but I finished playing Divinity:Original Sin 2 after 110 hours (which kept me from listening to much music, D:OS2's soundtrack is just to good to be disabled). What a great RPG, probably one of the best I've ever played. I still have to play Baldur's Gate 3 though.

Anyhow, here are my 25 most listened to #Music artists for December 2024 according to #PlexAmp

(genres are in the alt texts)

I left Spotify in 2021 and started listening to my own music collection. I already had the MP3s and/or the CDs from which to rip them, so I hosted them on my Plex server and started listening to them using the excellent Plexamp mobile client.

One thing I missed from Spotify was the "wrapped" listening summary... but I'd always believed I could improve on what Spotify delivered. This winter break I spent some time implementing a solution in Microsoft Fabric. I used data from my Plex server's SQLite database for recent years, and from the JSON files that Spotify will send you if you make a GDPR data request for older years. I standardized enriched both data sets with the open source MusicBrainz database, and then visualized some Spotify-inspired vanity metrics in Power BI.
