Enable HD Audio and full copy Sync for music above 320kbps such as 24 bit / 96 kHz or 16/44.1

+1 I just assumed this existed - until my 4g data ran out. please fix this!

Any sign of this being fixed?

Like many others here everything I have is in FLAC format for original quality at home, but I don’t need that quality on the mobile.

The music audio quality option in settings on Android has no affect.

2018, I can’t believe this has still not be addressed. Plex is unusable on the go sincd FLACs eat through the data plan in a matter of minutes.

Want to add my voice to the chorus. Please add support for audio transcoding!

@ā€œMovieFan.Plexā€ @antoniolg Can you guys please acknowledge that this is a bug and that no transcoding happens even if the max bitrate setting is set in the app? It’s killing our data plans.

Yes, this is a bug. We are working on it.

Thank you.

Was this ever fixed? Can’t use Plex for music otherwise

I tested again the other day and I am still experiencing the issue. I am on the latest Plex Pass PMS and Android client…

Same here as far as I can see… "We’re working on it"ā„¢

Yup, still on the todo list.

I hope it can be fixed soon! I use Plex mostly for music so this is kind of necessary hehe :s

There hasn’t been any update on this since May 8th, it still seems to be an issue, is that tracked somewhere with a potential target version where this bug would be fixed?

Seems like it has been fixed in the latest Android App update with the new player, thanks so much! Finally can stream my music!

2025 clean-up: reported as fixed (implemented/closed)
