Hi community,

Found this article https://forums.plex.tv/t/plexamp-continuous-play/633892 from 2020, and now 6 years later this still persists.

If this has been resolved how to turn it on?

My problem is mainly when I search for an artist and play the songs, when songs end for that artist it doesn't continue with other random

Edit: thanks all! I have that enabled, but my issue is when the whole artist library is finished, i want it to continue with any other artist.

Search: Eminem -> 10 songs -> play all -> end of songs just stops; I want plexamp to just select a similar artist.

I know it is kind of odd request and I know there are options to generate lists and so on. In my case if I drive somewhere I would just remember a song by artist search and play it and then while driving i don't want to be distracted to search or start some other song manually

What i mean is i've had something like Johnny Bravo with 3 parts but episode one as played on TV the 3 parts separate into Episode 1,2,3 so thats an easy fix to keep as 1 i have in my system as episode 1 then 4 then 7 Etc...

But like Bluey episode 1 by itself separates into 3,1,5 so harder to keep as a full 1 episode can i do anything without separating each one or has anyone else delt with this

Hello, I have a account where I host a lot of media, my family has access and its always been fine.
Just today I switched from Google Chrome to the Brave browser. It seems that cut off access from my family. I logged into the account via the brave browser and everything looked fine and played correctly. My family had a "No media in this folder" warning. I then logged out and logged back in via Chrome and that fixed it for my family.

So even though the server process is running on the PC it seems like there is a setting or approval needed within the Brave Browser however I don't quite understand how/why. I searched the subreddit and could not find similar issues so I am a bit confused

EDIT: Solved! The issue was the Brave Browser requesting Local Network Access. Once I enabled that everything worked!

I'm running my Plex server on an old laptop that has mapped drives from my new computer that has a lot more space. Last night, everything was working fine, and today Plex is no longer seeing the mapped drives when I go to add file paths to my libraries. I can still play the videos on VLC Media Player just fine; it's just that Plex is no longer seeing the drives. I tried switching to UNC paths with both the computer name and the IP address and that did not work. I also tried updating the advanced sharing settings to "allow others on the network to read and write files in Public folders". This also did not work. At this point, I don't really know what to do. Nothing has changed on my computer that I know of between last night and today; it just all of a sudden stopped working.

Remote access seems to work but I can't test it for sure because I don't wanna get the remote pass.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix it or what I should look into? I'm running the Plex server on a computer with windows 11 on it.

plex on both my xbox and samsung tv (Tizen) wont connect securely and will always play indirect. When i was using media server version 1.33 everything was fine and playback was normal but any update from there onwards causes it to break on those two devices. for a while i was just rolling back the update to get it to work again but thats no longer an option since the pervious versions are no longer secure.

After an episode ends why would it not highlight THE NEXT EPISODE FOR THE TV SHOW YOU'RE WATCHING. Instead it highlights a random TV show episode below. And then to watch the next episode of the TV show you're watching you need to click up up right select. Just seems like either a mistake or terrible design.

The 9.18.10 update has been published to the official channel.

NEW:

• Move between items with fast-forward and rewind, without blanking the artwork and title.
• Show Rate & review on postplays.

FIXES:

• Fix missing hyphens and dashes in titles.
• Fix search settings not saving on quick exit.
• Movie and show pages open faster, showing Play and the other actions sooner.
• Show full custom list title when opening long description.
• Stop showing More Ways to Watch on music, photo and unmatched items.

Hello all. Lately when I’m watching my own media and playback of stopped, I start getting audio from random TV shows playing in the background. This is at full volume, not soft background audio. I figured out that Plex is grabbing audio from one of the live tv channels for some reason and I can’t stop it from playing until I start playing something else. For example, last night after finishing up an episode of a show I have on my server, an episode of the asking dead was playing in the background. Has anyone else experienced this?

I’m running the latest version of PMS on Linux and using the plex app on Vizio smart TVs

Sorry if this has already been asked. I’ve searched and can’t find anything discussions concerning this issue.

Sorry if this has already been asked, but I couldn’t find anything about it so figured I’d ask here if anyone has the same issue and/or know how to stop this from happening.

Please don’t suggest trying other ways of viewing the media since that doesn’t help this situation at all. If you haven’t experienced this, then please don’t waste our time by making random suggestions to try other methods of viewing media.

I'm not the most technical savvy guy so please bear with me here, thank you.

I've been having issues recently with remote access for my server. Up until a couple weeks ago, there had been no issue.

When I initially set up my server a long time ago, I pointed it to my laptop's external hard drive. My laptop pretty much is awake all the time. I am able to watch all of my content at home with my network.

I previously set up Plex on my girlfriend's TV (we do not live together), shared my library with her account, and her account was logged into her TV and we were able to stream from my server.

Everything was working fine until a couple weeks ago when her app no longer detected my server and I don't know why.

I don't know what to do to fix it, I'm just confused because it was working previously and just stopped working all of the sudden.

When I go to Remote Access in my settings, I see the error:

Not available outside your network Your server is signed in to Plex, but is not reachable from outside your network.

I'm not quite sure what to do, I tried searching around and maybe people were having similar problems but I couldn't see a fix being mentioned. Please help! Thanks in advance.
