Premium Music Libraries not available on Nighthawk X10

Lifetime Plex Pass Subscriber
Server Version#: 1.13.2.5154-fd05be322 Jun 08, 2018 (Nighthawk X10)

I know Premium music libraries aren’t supported yet, does anyone know if this functionality will ever be available? I guess I am not understanding why this feature is turned off on the Nighthawk?
Any workarounds that anyone has attempted?

What limitations are there when running Plex Media Server on the Nighthawk X10?
As this device is an embedded device and also has to perform as a router, certain limits apply when running Plex Media Server on the Nighthawk X10:

  • The requisite support libraries from Gracenote are not available, so Premium Music Libraries are not currently supported.

@tom80H I understand they aren’t currently supported, but are there any plans in the future? I have Plex running on a desktop server (with premium music libraries), but I want to migrate a lot of my music libraries to the Nighthawk, but I don’t really want to move my music collections if I can’t have premium music libraries.

Is there any way to setup the premium libraries on desktop and migrate them to nighthawk after?

That won’t work.
They might still be labeled as „premium“ but won’t be able to do the job.
This is a dependency outside Plex. If the provider (here Gracenote) doesn’t provide a mechanism to access their service/data on a certain platform, Plex cannot overcome this situation. I’m not aware of any roadmap for Gracenote to offer those libraries or if they consider to even do this in the first place.
