Plexamp no longer plays music after most recent tidal update

Music no longer playing after most recent Tidal update.

Player Opens
Can log in ok
Have reinstalled
Can browse library
Can click play/pause, can skip ahead on the track
Web browser playing works fine

Plexamp is simply not generating any audio or otherwise behaving like it’s playing.

Server status shows the connection and the current track, but plexamp never actually plays anything.

This started after the most recent update that added Tidal support.

Should be noted this appears to possibly be network related. Plexamp works at home within my network, but not at work.

However:

  1. to the best of my knowledge the overall network environment has not changed.
  2. This was working up until the most recent update
  3. I can confirm that connections for the port on which I run my plex server publicly, are good - i.e. the port on which Plex at home is accepting connections is very much open.

Were new port requirements added in this plexamp release? Does it fail if it can’t reach Tidal? The web version of Plex works fine, and connects directly.

There should be any new network or port requirements :thinking:

If you can browse, then it shouldn’t be a network issue. The server.log file as well as the mpd.log (maybe in /tmp) would be useful in diagnosing.

Thank you for your reply! I found the server.log location with lots of info, though I would want to sanitize it a bit, lots of machine names and IPs and such. It has a few hours of stuff while I horsed around with reinstalling and such.

Let me do some deliberate testing from the office tomorrow morning so the logged events are clear and I will update this thread, thank you for your help!

OK below are the contents from today in application.log and server.log If you’d like other logs please let me know where I can find them on a win10 machine - thanks!

I’ve redacted some IPs and machine names if they have my name in them. For reference I’m running Plex Media Server on a server 2016 box at home (called HOMESERVER after redaction, on internal and public port 21, connecting from work office on WORKLAPTOP.

A note here - I’m seeing entries in the logs here where my PlexAmp is trying to connect to coworker laptops, presumably because they too use Plex - This is less desirable, so it would be great if now or in the near future we could disable PlexAmp’s casting about looking for other things to-which to connect.

Otherwise I’ll list out private IPs here for comparison:
192.168.1.2 - Private IP of Plex Media Server
192.168.1.103 - Private IP assigned via DHCP reservation to my worklaptop when I work from home

Same situation. Plexamp will play on local network, will not play at work. Tried reinstallation, as well. Plex Media Player plays just fine, Plexamp allows you to browse media, but it won’t actually play it.

This is happening to me on Windows 10 Build 1803, Plexamp 1.1.0

Can load Plexamp, login and browse media. Press Play and the track loads, but does not start playing; the button changes to the pause icon, and you can see the waveform, but it will eventually will back out the list of media.

+1 same here, which sucks as plexamp has become my default play method

+1 same here. was working beautifully but something killed it.

Keep getting the following over and over and over in the application log…for some reason there is no update in the server log it is over a week old with no updates to it…

Wow, that is quite strange :thinking: It sort of seems like the network connection is breaking, or MPD.exe is dying. Is this just on Windows we’re seeing the issue?

I’m a bit puzzled at the moment.

Win 10 Pro 64-bit.

Only seeing it on Win10, works fine on MacOS for me.

I have the same issue, Win 10 Pro 64-bit. Maybe relevant:

The “index didn’t match” and “Got exception playing media” seems to occur every time I hit the play button in PlexAmp.

I fixed mine by removing
C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Plexamp
and
C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Plexamp
AND reinstalling Plexamp.
(Neither reinstalling alone, nor removing both folders alone, fixed it.)

Was not successful for me unfortunately :confused:

Manually removed
C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Plexamp
&&
C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\Plexamp

Uninstalled via Add / Remove Programs

Reinstalled 1.1.0 fresh and this fixed the issue for me.

Thank you EquateBrand!

Tried equatebrands steps a few other ways with no success. Worth noting I suppose, uninstalling from add/remove programs doesn’t work for me. I am prompted for credentials to elevate the uninstall, and then nothing.

If I manuall run Uninstall Plexamp.exe from C:\Users<userprofile>\AppData\Local\Programs\plexamp - it removes its installed directory just fine.

I also tried equatebrands fix and for me it was the same result with a connection to the library as music is browseable but playback just does not work. Would really love to get an answer on this issue. I think the issue came about in December for me after the latest update, but not for sure on that.

I do get this in the application log:

Error loading: https://myipaddr:32400/library/streams/20362/levels?subsample=128: Request failed with status code 501

Thanks @EquateBrand - uninstall alone wasn’t working for me, but removing those two folders, than an uninstall and reinstall did the trick.
