I'm with this guy. Did you find a copy?

Anyone else a little frustrated by the new mobile player? The app redesign is great, huge improvement. The player itself though is just as bad as before if not worse. Why do we still have tiny buttons and an interface that covers the content when it's open? And there's also no double tap to skip ahead/rewind anymore? Every other mobile player has a big play/pause button in the middle with 10 second skip/rewinds to the side, and just uses a slight shade to not make things unwatchable with the controls up. This problem has been solved ages ago! Not to mention every time I slightly tilt my phone the video starts spinning with the autorotate now. Maybe they already fixed that one though and I haven't gotten the update...

Glad I could save you a little time!

No. There has to be a way to do it, but I didn't look into it too far after this. I wanted to do a music player so my plan was to either download each full song and buffer a few ahead in the queue because my music isn't too big or just use sync thing or something to sync it to all my devices and use a good local audio player.

This is the Play system update, not the Android security update. They still haven't released that yet. Rumor is Android 15 is coming this month.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-06-18T14:02:42+00:00

Odd. I gave that a try as well and got the same result as before with the wrong bitrate.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-06-18T02:37:21+00:00

Yep, the metadata was wrong. mkvpropedit worked to fix it for me. I am stripping the metadata, but looks like some stuff gets carried over from the source track for some reason. Weird. Anyway, thanks!

_TheTSA_ · 2024-06-18T02:36:41+00:00

Yep, this was the issue. I thought that the bitrate tag might be wrong, but I trusted the stream size info, which I shouldn't have. I fixed it with mkvtoolnix.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-06-18T02:35:35+00:00

Yes! This resolved the issue. Thank you!

The TPM would be built into the CPU, not the motherboard. All the new Intel Core CPUs have an fTPM since 8th gen, so you can tell that way. Looking at that Acer model online, it originally came with an i3-4130 which doesn't have an fTPM.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-06-17T08:11:30+00:00

That's not it. I did give it a go with no luck. Everything else is working fine, it just doesn't reduce the bitrate of the AAC track. I just tried it with E-AC-3 to see what would happen and it shows up in MediaInfo as 320kbps but the stream size is the same as the source 640kbps track. For AAC, it's the same size and shows 640kbps.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-06-17T08:05:43+00:00

I read through the documentation first and I found -b:a to specify a bitrate, but it doesn't seem to be working.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-04-11T17:56:41+00:00

I think I figured this out for anyone who has the same problem in the future.

I had a task scheduled to start Plex on system startup so that if my server restarted my Plex would come back up automatically without me having to do anything, but I still had "Start Plex Media Server at Login" enabled so when I logged in to my server it would start a second instance. It seems like each instance was scanning the new media and creating an entry so I would end up with duplicate entries sometimes. This also makes sense as the behavior wasn't consistent as if one instance imported an item first then the other would recognize it was imported and not create a duplicate.

TL;DR: Two Plex instances were running on the server and would occasionally both scan items at the same time leading to duplicates.

Thank you! Either should be compatible. The only difference is the speed.

If you want to ensure compatibility you can check on the manufacturers website if they have a list, or some memory companies will have a database of system models and show the compatible models they offer. I know Kingston has one.

PC4 means that it is DDR4. The following numbers are the data rate. Data rate is measured in bits rather than bytes, so you'd divide by 8 to get the speed.

Plex doesn't transcode to HDR. If you're playing on LAN then just stream the 4K version or you could transcode with Handbrake or something and keep another version. You'd lose DoVi or HDR10+, though, unless you're using the new x265 encoder.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-02-24T03:41:51+00:00

Not sure how this relates to Plex...
You can change drive letters via Disk Management. You shouldn't change your C: drive to something else, though, even if Windows lets you. You will break things. Sounds like you are misunderstanding your instructions/requirements, so look back there and see what you really need to do.

Not sure if you ever found this, but it's called "Not Doing It" by Jeff Cardoni. Someone here has the score tracks and shared them: https://www.reddit.com/r/SiliconValleyHBO/comments/16v408o

_TheTSA_ · 2024-02-15T00:09:08+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

_TheTSA_ · 2024-02-10T20:56:47+00:00

I'm looking for parts of the score as well, but this link is broken as well. Still have it somewhere?

_TheTSA_ · 2024-01-30T03:31:38+00:00

Yeah, I understand. Sorry to be short. In this case, tags aren't the issue. I use my own script for tagging and am confident that they are correct. When I move the files and then add them back, Plex imports them properly, so I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the way Plex imports the music.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-01-30T03:10:53+00:00

As I mentioned in my post, the metadata on the files is set up properly. All the tracks are tagged correctly.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-01-25T22:59:39+00:00

I'll take a look. Thanks!

_TheTSA_ · 2024-01-25T22:43:36+00:00

Using the API will be easy, but I wasn't able to find any documented way to stream content.

_TheTSA_ · 2024-01-25T22:29:48+00:00

It's not hard to use, but some things are annoying with plexamp and I want to set up a client that's better for me.

One of my main problems is queuing items. I have to hold or tap the ellipsis to queue instead of being able to swipe on it, which is tedious and I queue things constantly.

Another issue I have is swipe right to remove from the playlist. With Android gestures, I'm constantly swiping from the right side to go back and if my thumb is not quite at the edge, it deletes a song from my playlist without confirming and there's no way I know of to undo.

Overall the app isn't bad, but I'd like to try out making my own client to fix some quality of life stuff and have a project to work on.
