I’ve scanned through the forums and found numerous (see below), ignored and closed, posts over the last few years, on this very subject. With all the holiday promotions from Tidal and Plex, currently running, one would hope that the good folks at Plex would iron this out sooner than later.
My use case is that I want to play Tidal tracks on my lounge media box without turning the screen on, using my phone. Currently this is not possible using Plex because it throws up the “This content is not currently supported on a remote player” restriction when attempting to play Tidal music with a remote player selected.
Is there any chance of this changing in the future? It’s basically the only reason I would want to use Plex. My guess is that this restriction is required by Tidal rather tha…
Hi There,
I got plex set up yesterday on my raspberry pi 4. the Pi 4 is the server and the player via the web app. I have been able to select my local library on plexamp for android and choose to have it output to the chrome plex webpage on the pi with no issues.

Basically all I need here is a android-tablet-remote to control the playback on my PC.

The funniest thing about this “under construction” part is, when the Tidal playlist is already playing on …
Tidal now doesn’t want to play when accessing from the local browser to a desk top, it works okay when accessing from online web access (via Plex WS).

Server Version#:4.14.2
Player Version#: Latest IOS apps
Configuration: Plex IOS connected to a DAC (Chord Hugo2), acting as my preamp, which is connected to my stereo amplifier.
For the last year I have been using this setup to drive my main stereo using the Plex’s Remote Player functionality using my Flac, MP3s, and apple-lossless files.
Today I added Tidal to my Plex Pass and I am not able to use the Remote Player functionality with any of the Tidal content, I am still able to use it with …
