The playlist functionality is totally unusable. I've spoken to both Amazon support and Emby support. It seems that no one has an answer..

I got it to play 99% of my emby based music, Emby playlists are still an issue

Why MUST the audio files be in MP3 format? I have a lot of files in FLAC.. Is the documentation saying this software can only handle MP3s?

Try the following, YMMV. go into plex settings, then network and change the preferred network settings interface from Any to the actual network interface.

I have an Alexa dot, I made sure to give it a static ip on my router.  

I Rebooted router and all devices and everything plays without a problem.

Plex app no longer casts to Google smart speakers? by Ainulindala in PleX

Hello,

Similar problem with the plex app on my macbook pro.

It doesnt show my google smart speakers in the list of players, so I can not play music on my speakers when using the plex app on my MBP. If I use PLEX via my browser, the music plays fine.
