[BUG] Plexamp messes up the track progress

MacOS, Plexamp: 3.4.1, PMS: 1.21.2.3918 (store track progress enabled)

How to reproduce
When listening through an album the very first time without skipping a song or seeking, all the tracks start from the beginning. Then listening through the same album right after again, will start all the tracks around the last 6 seconds.

Disabling sweet fades doesn’t make a difference, it seems like the track progress is
not send correctly to PMS after track completion.

Workaround
Disable track progress on PMS for the full library but this is not very nice. :slight_smile:

You only enable this for libraries which contain audiobooks.
For music it is not sensible.

Thanks for your reply. Partly agree if you are fine with creating a separate library for just audiobook.
I’m using Plex since 4 years with this setting enabled and it was never an issue so far with the other apps.
Hope this slip can be prioritised. Not sure but with slightly older versions of Plexamp this was not happening :slight_smile:

It has nothing to do with the Plexamp version, but with the server version:

(MUSIC) Changed played progress point for podcasts/long-form-audio to 99%, other audio content to 50% (12193)

Which means as soon as you tick this checkbox, this library is treated as a podcast/audiobook library.
I recommend you to create separate libraries anyway. It doesn’t make sense to suddenly hear a chapter of an adiobook if you simply trigger a “library radio” or somesuch.
