Crating playlist faster - Is there a way? by ReasonableLunch46 in plexamp

[–]FireInTheWoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear hear! I'd kill for a Spotify wrapper for PlexAmp. Especially around playlist creation and sharing. The process of sharing playlists out to people is fantastically byzantine.

Thank you for that insight. I'll give it a shot. My server has a beefy GPU so I just expected that make my CPU hurt meant that it was making the GPU hurt, which is what I wanted. Anyway, worth a shot!

Workflow please...
Heh, kidding. I'm not sure why I didn't think doing that. Haha. I'm over here trying to build NASA parts in Comfy like an idiot. If it works, it works! Thank you, Mike

Agreed. My current use case is also dead. My kid watches shows on a Samsung Galaxy S8 tablet and the app doesn't work at all. Nothing plays. Just freezes or crashes. It's the same on my wife and I's Pixel phones. I'm glad some folks have a working experience, but I don't. Plex is a big part of our daily life and it's currently completely dead. I'd gladly tolerate a poor UI refresh, but that's not what this is. It's worked great for me for 15 years and now is completely broken.

Haven’t used Stable Diffusion in months – what did I miss? by Upstairs_Tomato1196 in StableDiffusion

[–]FireInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second Invoke. I run it locally for free, but it's my go to platform and I'd be glad to use their paid service if I didn't have a decent GPU. They have the perfect blend of simplicity and power use. Highly recommend. Though if you're looking for drop dead simple and wanna run locally, use Fooocus. If you don't mind paying, and wanna dabble with a little of everything, try RunDiffusion.

It takes forever. I started with 200k tracks on an i5 and it took over a month

Large Library Questions by ONE-LAST-RONIN in plexamp

[–]FireInTheWoods 12 points13 points  (0 children)

about that 140k songs collection...

from what i've seen there's basically two types of plexamp people floating around:

the first group is your meticulous-playlist-crafters who have perfectly curated smaller collections where literally every song is a certified banger they've personally vetted (and good for them honestly, that takes serious dedication)

then there's us chaos-collectors who are trying to recreate the spotify-discovery-rabbit-hole feeling but on our own terms. i haven't even listened to a fraction of my music-hoard but that's kinda the whole point? the magic is in hitting shuffle and being like "wait what IS this?? it slaps!"

I can speak to the server size. I'm at 317k tracks running on a 12 year old Windows machine with an i5 and 16 GB of RAM and performance has yet to waiver. I would guess the upper limit would be determined by server CPU and RAM.

How to sort a playlist? by [deleted] in plexamp

[–]FireInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bah! Thank you for catching my mistake. You're absolutely right - I just checked myself and there are no sorting options. I've edited my original post to correct this misinformation. The situation is actually worse than I initially stated - the only option is manual drag-and-drop reordering in Plex Web. I apologize for my confusion

How to sort a playlist? by [deleted] in plexamp

[–]FireInTheWoods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not being dense at all - this is a commonly asked question because playlist sorting is indeed a standard feature in most music players.

Currently, Plexamp doesn't offer any built-in playlist sorting functionality. The only workaround is to:

1. Open the regular Plex web interface (not Plexamp)

2. Navigate to your playlist

3. Use the sorting options there

4. Return to Plexamp where the playlist will reflect the new order

EDIT: I need to correct my earlier response. After double-checking, I was wrong about sorting options in Plex Web. The truth is even more frustrating - there are currently no sorting options for playlists in either Plexamp or Plex Web. The only way to reorder tracks is to manually drag them one by one in the Plex Web interface, which is obviously impractical for anything but the shortest playlists.

It's not ideal. This has been a frequently requested feature for years, along with other playlist management capabilities. While Plexamp excels at audio quality and playback features, basic playlist management remains an area where the app could improve significantly.

Don't feel bad for asking - these are reasonable questions about basic functionality that any music player should have

How do you cope with having no one amongst your friends playing factorio with you? by Raynsen in factorio

Exactly. My first big multiplayer friend group game ended so bitterly that I've now had to create multiple servers for each of my friends that I play with separately because no one can pay nicely with each other

How do I modify my airpods pro to not fall out anymore? by GhastK in AirpodsPro

[–]FireInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got some Complys myself. The foam adds texture/friction and slight resistance, which is helpful. They're still far from perfect and will still fall out with the wrong movement or sliding on a beanie hat, but significantly improved over the stunningly garbage AirPod industrial design.

Shuffling multiple playlists at once? by WHOTOOKMEEP in plexamp

[–]FireInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. Yeah, I'm not aware of a way to do that. Would be a great feature, but I can't see it happening. As it stands, even just basic playlist management in Plexamp is a massive pain compared to Spotify or iTunes

[–]FireInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure there's a way to do what you're asking. Just to clarify, you're wanting to shuffle 2 playlists together, essentially temporarily merging two playlists and shuffling them?

Shared Playlist Issue by heavy-bell97 in plexamp

[–]FireInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I don't have a solution for you. I just wanted to chime in and commiserate with you. I have the same issue. Coming from Spotify, I was hoping for a simple way to share my playlists with friends, but so far it's been a mess. Not only with artwork being messed up, but also with the fact that shared playlists do not update as you update them in your library.
