I’ve recently started listening to a lot of music while I’m on the PC. I’d like to stay within the plex “world” - Plex has good playlist support and Plex Media Player works really well driving an external DAC (useful for the 24/96 FLACs I have kicking around), but the full screen PMP interface makes it unsuited to being a desktop audio player.
Would be nice to have some way of using PMP as an audio player - possibly running it in a headless mode with the “UI” being the remote control API?
Probably not exactly what you are after, but have you tried CTRL+F / CMD+F to switch PMP into ‘windowed’ mode?
You can resize the window with your mouse really tiny.
edit: the shortcut may have changed in the latest Release Candidate to CTRL+Shift+F / CMD+Shift+F
While windowed mode works, I too would love this feature. I’m using VOX + Loop as a work around right now, but would rather use my own server rather than pull from the Loop cloud (which I have to pay to use).
