Hi,
Plexamp 4.4.0 on Android Mobile.
I have sweet fades enabled in settings.
Just been playing a nice “mixes for you” but noticed it’s simply switching between tracks rather than fading.
Under what circumstances does sweet fade work?
I know it won’t it you play a single album in order but thought it would for most everything else.
Thanks!
You need to disable sample rate matching.
Where do I do that please, can’t see it under settings?
I guess then it is not available on Android.
Sweet Fades need your library to have completed the loudness analysis. Is this the case?
Yes, I believe loudness anlsysis has completed.
Obviously I can’t check my whole library (unless there’s an easy way), but the tracks I bought up have gain and loudness tags.
And playing a smart playlist sweet fades work fine.
It’s working here.
Have you considered that each track pairing will have an individually computed time of overlapping? (Depending on the loudness progression of their starts and ends.)
So you may get track pairings with shorter overlap duration, if they end or start rather abruptly.
Did you add Tidal content to your library?
Yes, I have just purchased Tidal through Plex.
No, I do not know about computed time of overlapping… is this something that is also in the music metadata that I can look at, or is it done on the fly by Plexamp?
But the basic question remains, apart from playing a single album in order should all other playback invoke sweet fades?
That’s not exactly what I asked.
Did you use the command “Add to library”, so that specific Tidal content does show up as regular media in your local Plex music library?
Simply adding a Tidal subscription to your plex account doesn’t do this.
No, this cannot be seen in the media info. You can only get a glimpse at the process if you look at the plexamp logs afterwards.
You can quickly check the difference if you build yourself a play queue. First add a pair of tracks which you know they have a rather abrupt end and start.
Then add another pair of tracks which have a very slow fade out and a very soft start.
Now play both track transitions.
You should be able to see (well, hear) quite well what I mean.
Yes, unless you use “album radio”.
No, haven’t looked at the feature yet.
I can hear the difference everywhere its just the mix that Plexamp (or the server) created it was abrupt, I will try perhaps creating a manual playlist with the same tracks and see if its the same with no apparent fade.
Thanks.
If you can recreate the issue, please fetch the plexamp logs,
zip them and drag them here into the message editor window.
