Im betting lunch they are losing market to jellyfin and the free finamp.

Plexamp has been kinda stagnant for a while and can be finicky on lossy connections (ie: cell service)

And they still lock downloads behind plex pass so guess my jellyfin server isn’t going anywhere

[–] freeman@lemmy.pub 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Ive been increasingly considering Jellyfin. I really only use plex for OTA tv/libraries on roku's 99% of the time

Rarely do I use mobile or others. But plexamp is like 99% mobile too.

I’ve only tried it with music and iptv channels, both of which work well and free dvr is a large plus

finamp is missing enough features to me to make plexamp worth paying for to me (not automatically switching to transcoding on mobile data, not supporting opus transcodes)

[–] SymbolicLink@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Another shitty thing about Plexamp is there is no easy way to download your entire library in a converted format and auto download any new additions.

The developer said that "this is not the intended use of Plexamp", but the reasoning is flawed IMO

[–] freeman@lemmy.pub 2 points 3 years ago

That’s probably my biggest complain tbh.

My entire library can fit on my phone. No reason to stream. If my home internet has problems I can’t listen to music? Or if I’m out in the sticks (often enough) I suddenly find out what’s actually cached/downloaded and what isn’t solely because it’ll skip entire albums or just fail to start songs etc.
