Firstly, I’m loving the rebuilt app. It’s a really polished experience now and after a couple of days now it’s already my first choice music app. And after seeing in other posts that there’s likely to be support for Chromecast, Android Auto/Airplay, as well as changing the Download location, it’s well on the way to ticking off every major feature I’d personally like to see implemented.
Just wanted to advise a couple of bugs I’ve come across:
I have Jaybird X4 Bluetooth headphones paired, and while the Play/Pause button will pause a track as expected, it doesn’t seem to resume it.
After playing a number of tracks that I’d Downloaded from within the app, I noticed that they’re not showing up in my list of “Recently Plays”. I get the impression that’s because the list isn’t including the tracks I’ve played from the local source, it only includes tracks played from the server? Having said that, the tracks are all scrobbled correctly in Last.fm.
Anyway, thanks again for what’s already a great app. I’m looking forward to tracking it’s progress, and I’d be happy to provide any more info about those bugs if I can be any help.
Quick Edit: while I expected to see a bunch of Downloaded tracks I’d played show up in the “Recent Plays” list, they did show up correctly in the “History” list. To add another wrinkle, when I played a track from the History list, it did show up in the Recent Plays list. It seems it’s only tracks that are played from the Download section that don’t show up in the Recent Plays list.
Hey @TigerTuff. HISTORY is dedicated to tracks, so you’ll see each song you play there. RECENT PLAYS is a little different. If will show you where you started playing something: Album, Playlist, Radio, Mix, and even Track. So, if you start a playlist, RECENT PLAYS will place that playlist in it. Then you bounce over to an album and you shuffle it, it will display the album. And if you go down to a specific track and play it, the song will show up in RECENT PLAYS. I hope that makes more sense.
Thanks for your replies @alexanderjunk and @elan. I think I’ve got a grasp of how the recent plays list works now. I’ve always played my music from local storage so it’s just a change of mindset required on my part I think.
Any advice for things I could try to troubleshoot with Plexamp not responding to a press of the play/pause button on Bluetooth headphones in order to resume a paused track? I’ve got wired headphones that respond correctly, it’s just the Bluetooth ones I’m having trouble with.
Me too… Android, Galaxy S8+. Plexamp not responding to press of play/pause button on Bluetooth headphones in order to resume a paused track? Wired headphones, no problem.
SPECIFICALLY… if I press play/pause button within 4 seconds it will resume. If pressed after 7 or so seconds it will not. This is also the case when playing music with the regular Plex app. How do I fix this?
@TigerTuff@elan Just wanted to chime in and say I’m also experiencing the resume issue with airpods and beats pro wireless headphones. Plex Amp 3.0.2 on iOS. Can pause but not resume from the headphones.
Is there a way to file a proper bug report? Or is there one already for this?
Played around a little more. It only will not resume if the app is active (has focus). If I pause, go back to homescreen (or lock), then resume, it works. This is on an iPhone X and an iPad with airpods, powerbeats pro wireless, and vmoda crossfades (btooth). Unlike @brenowitz wired headphones are fine for me.
So if it’s on my screen playing, pause, then can’t resume. I use guided access to lock my screen out when I run which I think is why I was really noticing it (screen always has focus in that situation I guess).
