More control on radios / auto play

Radios are great, but I’d like to have more control on them.
For example, I’d like to launch a random album radio for one or more specified artist, not the whole library (because I’m in the mood for them and not others).
I haven’t found a way to do that quickly.

Another one is the autoplay after an album. Adding the next/previous album for this artist is okay, but it could be greatly improved with the possibility to launch a configurable radio instead.

How about Artist Mix Builder?

You can swipe the card at the bottom of the up next section to pick from

• silence → end playback
• next album
• similar album
• artist mix
• artist radio
• track radio (based on final track in the queue)
• a random(?) radio, e.g. „The 2020s“
• library radio

This create songs mixes where I’m looking for albums mixes (this is super important for me, cf Android auto: next album from hardware keys - Plex Labs - Plex Forum)

At the bottom of the track in the player? I don’t see it, cf capture (I deactivated autoplay here)

That’s probably it.

With autoplay I only get the next album of the current artist (is there a way to have miniatures of image uploads?)

[tom80H]

Can you swipe the box that says Album suivant to the left/right?

Edit:

@whinette

is there a way to have miniatures of image uploads?

You should be able to select a % when uploading an image to define the size used to display inline. You can also assign any %age when editing your post (see the change I’ve made to your previous post, adding ,25% as a suffix to the image code)

Indeed, that’s good.
I would prefer something more automated (@ work focused, or for android auto) but it will work for the time being
