[Feature Request] Movies section browsing music

Feature Suggestions
1

Just a loop of whatever you want while you browse your movies.

Must possible as mechanism exists for tv themes.

And I dont mean theme music for each film, just a simple foyer/lift music type 'ish!

 

tl;dr

You beat me to it  ^_^

I was just trying to get this automated by some external method, but gave up and decided to place a request too as this belongs to a great application like Plex.

There should be a way, for example by simply placing some music files or a playlist file into a specific folder defined somewhere within Plex settings or simply a dedicated folder used by Plex.

Then this should be played (files randomly, playlists in order) in the background.

The only thing that absolutely must happen is a gentle fade in and out when starting and stopping the music by either start to play a movie/normal audio file coming back into the interface after watching.

Its too silent while browsing. Would love to drop my Soundtracks playlist into that folder and have great music while browsing.

Many thanks for considering this!

Cheers.

Hi,

I completely agree. I'd like to play music while searching through my library of content as well. 

Adios
