There are several things that quite annoying when using using plex between the different interfaces and not being consistent or just needing some feature for easier handling. Can plex please add these feature to these interfaces.
-
On the Roku I can select the play or shuffle option under a music folder to play everything in the folder and sub folders. I cannot do this on the web interface or ios, why?
Could you please add this feature to both the web ui and the ios, this is such a great feature and makes it so easy to start music. -
Making playlists; On the web ui I cannot add folders (in the folder view) to a playlist. I do not like the albums/artist view, it is too cluttered and you cannot see the name or what folder you have it in. I cannot click on a select folder (folder view) button (on the top left of the folder) to add it like you can under the album/artist view. This is a real pain as it takes up so much time to select each and every file in the folder just to add it to a playlist, we need that button and a ‘select all’ under the … menu. The reason is because there are movie soundtracks that have multiple artists or multiple album names for special edition tracks like from amazon or itunes exclusive track(s), clicking a folder would be soooo much easier since they’re all under it anyways. Sometimes these folders are all over the place because of the exclusive naming.
-
Album view; When I go to an artist I cannot filter the kind of album, year, genre and etc under the artist. I only use the folder view because this so confusing. At times I don’t want to see the live albums other times that’s all I want to see or just if they are in a soundtrack.
-
I cannot create a playlist on my Roku, nor can I add files to a playlist on my Roku. This would be a helpful feature.
-
I cannot add a whole playing queue on my ios to a playlist, I can only do individual track(s) one at a time. A useful feature would be to have a popup came up and asked if you’d like to add the ‘Just this track’, ‘Current playing playlist’ or ‘Select tracks’ and also a popup to ask you what name you want to save it as instead of just ‘Playlist’ when you press the + key so you don’t have to go an rename it.

Why can’t I use the ‘scrubbing bar’ to change where I slide back or forward on a music track? This is a great feature in videos and I’d like to use it on my music at times and not just restart the track.
