Re-reviewing the Plex functionality as it stands, since I used the initial betas:
It's good that the "Recently Added" is now a rolling list - it only used to contain the latest 6 additions to your library, which was way too limited.
The addition of lists akin to what Plex generates to throw...
Just spent a couple of hours setting up Home Assistant on my NAS and getting this running. Works like a charm! Makes the WiiM app Plex implementation a bit more palatable and useful :)
I use Lyrion/Logitech Music Server on my NAS to store and cast radio stations to my WiiM via Squeezer on Android (or the server web interface on my laptop). If you have a NAS or a Raspberry Pi, or something that you're content to leave running, then this could be a potential solution, especially...
Symfonium upnp is probably the best workaround I've found, in the absence of plexamp endpoint. It's not perfect though. I've found issues with its queue management (it occasionally thinks that it's playing one song but it's actually playing the next song in the queue...)
They've had quite a lot of time to look at this, and I'd be surprised if they didn't at least investigate the feasability of Plexamp headless. It could simply be that there are technological impediments in implementing plexamp headless/endpoint on their hardware, or that it would be...
No plexamp features. It's just a browser in the app. It works well enough but it annoyingly doesn't report plays back to Plex so if you were hoping to scrobble to last fm or listenbrainz you're out of luck at the moment. It also caps "recently added" music to 6 albums which seems way too low to me.
Is the missing server remote, if so, that is probably why. If it's on your local network: do you have SSL/HTTPS set to "required" (as opposed to "preferred") for this particular server, because there is/was an issue (soon to be patched, if not done very recently) with WiiM accessing Plex via...
Just got the beta for Android. It's a decent enough implementation (although I share the same misgivings that many others have voiced around the lack of plexamp endpoint casting).
My main issues, having played around with it:
"Recently Added" seems to be capped to just 6 entries/albums. It...
Yeah, I hope they're able to remedy this. It's the one thing that was going to make this viable for my usecase, if their plex implementation didn't involve casting to an endpoint.
You've got the same build-date as me. I suspect that's just the recent (early September) firmware update and not the beta?
Also, I don't think the beta has been rolled out to the Android just yet? They said last week that it would come out "next week" (so presumably sometime this week?) and...
Accepting that this isn't going to be the Plexamp endpoint that some of us were hoping for, I was hoping that the implementation would at least allow me to scrobble to last.fm and listenbrainz, but based on some of the initial responses, it doesn't even register plays with Plex for whatever...
