In 2019, Elan posted a beta of Plexamp 2.0 for headless Raspbery Pi devices. In addition, there is an installer script on GitHub to install Plexamp on a Raspberry Pi. And there are probably more wired solutions out there which I didn’t discoverd… Both solutions needs an auth-token which needs to …

OK, closing this thread out as it’s getting a bit convoluted and the answer of the “future of Plexamp on Raspberry Pi” has been answered at this point (about 1 year after it was opened, sorry it took so long)! Please open new threads for specific issues, and a huge thank you to all the people who h…

+1 Headless PI support is the last thing missing for me to completely switch.

Plex would need to add Qobuz to its list of streaming services + a headless pi before I completely turn off my Roon Core.

I really hope it can coexist with PulseAudio somehow, because I wouldn’t want it to kill my Airplay server. It’s a pain to deal with multiple “cultures” of audio streaming and share the same set of speakers…

This feature would be awesome - trying to share some hifi speakers with different technologies and mostly a RaspberryPI with Volumio (or MoodeAudio) does a reasonable good job - but the missing piece of this audio streaming solution is better ‘proper’ PlexAmp support on an RPI (so I can fully commit…

I am currently using Volumio to play my Plex music database thru a Pi built into a puropse designed box that plugs into my aux port of my ancient Luxman stereo receiver. I could have used something simpler but it was a fun project. It even has a touch screen and remote.

Correct, we’ve unlocked the biggest bit of missing infrastructure to allow us to make progress on this. Headless release will still take some work, just to set expectations.

Thanks @elan ! Congrats on the V4 release. Will remote control of V4 use the same HTTP api as other players? Any new additions? Also, any chance of getting a comprehensive, current, document on the API anywhere? I’ve spent a lot of time with wire shark and mocking things up via the 3rd party pyt…

Same HTTP API; likely extensions will appear for e.g. Auto Play.

Based on the 4.0 update posted today, Plexamp on the Raspi is coming. This update made the under-hood changes necessary to get it working as I understand things.
