Its not uncommon for me throughout the day to switch between my desktop, laptop, and phone for listening. It’s annoying to have to re-queue/remember where I was in the middle of an album. I think it would be helpful if there was a option I could turn on to sync my play queue across my various clients so when I switch between devices I can easily pick up where I left off.

Spotify has an implementation of this which I think serves as a good example.

I'll be listening to music on my phone out and about and when I arrive home I'd love to be able to load up Plex (for Windows 8.1) on my PC and have the "Now Playing" play queue match what I had on my phone, ideally sitting at the same queue item, and in an ideal world, at the same location within the track. This would also be beneficial for the Video play queue when switching between locati…

Unless I’m missing some unique aspect of your suggestion I’ll close this thread.

As a side note…  
You should already be able to hand-off a play queue by flinging your music to that device.  
In addition there’s another suggestion discussing an option to pick from a list of play queues across devices (although that suggestion doesn’t have any votes yet).

> Plexamp has been the best thing ever. And I have been spoiled over the years as a loyal Squeezebox user - but with PlexAmp on a Pi system, there is nothing like it (ok… PLS find a way to support podcasts). What I do find a bit of a challenge, is an easy way to take a playlist from one player, and continue on the next. It is relatively easy to disconnect the phone from one player, but with more than one player, on the network (not all always on - for example my desktop computer) - it would be ni…
