TL;dr:
They’re moving pictures and music to separate apps because no one uses them. They’re also expanding API access and streamlining the main app for movies and TV.
I use them… :(
I think what they meant was “No one important uses them”
I kid, I kid!
Ouch! 😂
Apparently like 0.2% of users use the images one. Fwiw they’re not removing it they’re just separating it so the main app isn’t bogged down by extra features. I hope for your sake this isn’t the first step in deprecation though.
Aww damn, I use my own music library all the time! I much prefer streaming my own music over any other streaming service out there (Pandora, Spotify, etc) that interrupts my jams with ads. As long as it’s not going away though, I’ll be good.
I always hoped they’d expand the pictures libraries to become a sort of online e-reader. I have tons of digital comics and books in the form of .cbz and .cbr files that I need a comic book reader app to read. But then I can’t just read from my home storage. I need to manually copy files to my tablet while at home or download them from a cloud storage service while away from home. It would be convenient if I could dump them in Plex and have access to them on the go.
There’s a program called Kavita that’s trying to be Plex but for books. But it’s still in development, so it’s not very stable yet. I’ve had fun tinkering with it, but it’s not super convenient to use at this current stage.
Plexamp
fuckin’ ruleswhips the llama’s ass.The fuck did the llama do?!
I haven’t tried sideloading Plexamp on my Android TV, but it seems like I probably should. Does anyone have experience with this?
If you want to streamline plex then make your stupid online services opt-in instead of forcing them down your customers throats.
So are they openining up plexAmp to non passholders?
Good thing I switched to Jellyfin
Jellyfin doesn’t do HDR, which is like 90% of the linux ISO’s these days… (tonemapping yeah yeah, but tonemapping sucks compared to sdr content)
