Ability to select output audio device in Plexamp?

[sovamind]

Hey Everyone

Been enjoying PlexAmp [Windows] for a while now and am setting up a new system at home and can’t seem to find a place to select the output audio device in Plexamp. Is it really only able to use the default audio device?

I have speakers that I use on my computer for notifications, calls, etc, but I want my music to play on the big sound system (different device, fancy USB DAC).
On other applications and you can choose which device the application uses to avoid this problem. In fact, Plex Home Theater supported this, but it looks like this has been broken in an update. Now I can see the option, but the only option available is “autoselect device” (see pic)

I have a workaround at the moment, which is to plug my DAC into another PC and run that headless, then control it with Plex remote. This is just not a long term solution.

once we work on source matching, we’ll allow picking a device (the default right now is just to follow system output).
