Plexamp is an amazing player. I think this will extend capabilities further. Older receivers, and various media players (like TVs, etc) have built in support for DLNA. However, no one doing streaming wants to run a server on their local network. If PlexAmp is able to provide music streaming as a…

oh, that’s great! Yes, I have voted for that as well. However, the scope of audio offers a world of speakers that have probably not been streaming-enabled. The ability to tap into that market is particularly interesting as those with Plex account visit other homes, and stream to friend / loved o…

I’m surprised at the low number of votes here. There was a recent request along similar lines that puts it a bit better from my perspective: Plexamp stream to UPnP media renderer In essence, this could make Tidal as widely useful and convenient as Spotify Connect. I’ve linked Tidal to my Plex acco…

[image] vtr1000: as Chromecast is a basic, non-gapless, UPnP renderer that’s supported and I can only assume that’s how Plex clients communicate too That would be a wrong assumption. Plex’s “Companion” feature works fundamentally different. Both Apple and Google take the audio output of the…

I don’t think I said that Plex ‘sends’ anything, only that it ‘communicates’. I think we both understand just fine how the fundamentals of UPnP and Chromecast work… The suggestion here is to fully open up to the UPnP specification which would bypass the downside you mention above. Anyway, as an upd…

My house has two floors and I listen to music at several locations. Since leaving Roon after their latest database blunder and increasing costs, I am using Audirvana and PlexAmp. Can’t let go of Audirvana because it can send audio to all my streamers and receivers, mainly YamahaCast, as well as my A…

[image] ilkay: I wish we had such “play to” DLNA/uPNP capability in Plexamp (we don’t have it, right?) No, not beyond Chromecast at least. I’d imagine that it’d reduce development time by implementing this too, as there’d be no need for a headless Plexamp if this was supported. Surely win-win…

A question about Plex’s DNA server capbiltility - when streaming from Plex to an DLNA renderer does it update the play count / history on Plex? As one thing I am interested in doing is having a consolidated history of the music I play and obviously while using PlexAmp is some rooms this is perfect b…

Sorry, I can’t answer that for you. I only got Tidal working as my library source.

Hey all, I ran into the exact same frustration trying to use Plexamp with my Sonos speakers. I ended up building an Docker app called SonoPlex that makes DLNA/uPNP devices appear as Plex players, so you can cast directly from Plexamp. It’s basically what ilkay was asking for. Supports multi-room s…
