Plexamp cache growing beyond limit

That makes more sense. I’ll keep an eye on the hourly cleanup.

Good news looks like the hourly cleanup is working for now. Thanks for looking into it.

Update:. Hourly cleanup is sporadic and Plexamp often doesn’t stay open long enough to hit one hour. So my cache just keeps growing while the hourly cleanup doesn’t happen. I left Plexamp on overnight on my phone and in the morning cache was still the same size.

Would love to reinstate cleanup at startup or allow a manual cleanup at the least.

In the next version, we’ve lowered the initial cleaning time to 10 minutes. This means that after playing a couple of songs, it’ll clean up. That seems like it might go some way towards addressing your issue.

I’m a bit confused by that. If you’re playing music, it’ll clean up the cache. It doesn’t need to be in the foreground.

That sounds like a good solution moving to 10 minutes. I think playing music for an hour straight just to trigger a cleanup seems long.

I thought it automatically cleaned up hourly regardless of whether or not music was playing.

it does, but if it’s not playing music then the system will probably kill it after a bit.

A small tip: if you are really concerned about this, I would whitelist Plexamp from battery optimizations to minimize the frequency of the system killing it.

I have it whitelisted and I don’t get any noticable increase in battery usage.
