Hello

I use plex on an nvidia shield. If I attempt to play artist radio it only queues five songs by similar artists. Once it finishes playing the last song, it stops playing. it used to play similar artists for hours if not stopped.

Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

I have the same problem. Artist radio builds 5 songs then stops playing. It works fine on my Roku, but on NVidia Shield it won’t continue past the 5 songs. I’m running the latest versions as I update often. This problem has been around for months.

came searching for this topic specifically. My findings on Artist Radio below:
this seems to be an android issue. I dont have an Apple TV to test. Anyone know how the app works on Apple TV? I’m guessing its working fine.

nVidia Shield Plex app only 5 songs
FireTV Stick MAX Plex app only 5 songs
PC web browser unlimited songs
IOS Plex app unlimited songs
IOS PlexAmp app unlimited songs

Follow up… I purchased an Apple TV 4k specifically for endless music playing in my garage. This has no issues with only playing 5 songs and stopping. I will continue to use the Nvidia Shield on the big screen TV for movies/TV shows.
Conclusion: IMO Nvidia Shield is the best for tv and movies. Apple TV 4k is the way to play music with no hiccups.
