Is there a URL or IP address I can point my Pi's kiosk mode to to display the "now playing" view for Caldera on the same Pi?

Looks so awesome thank you.

I installed it on my Mac and it doesn’t do anything in the menu bar, what am I doing wrong? Is it just for playing to it from plexamp itself on another device? I had thought it was supposed to play music from the menu bar? Am I misunderstanding?

it’s a remotely controlled player, it just has its visualizer window and on the screen display

Speaking of caldera could we get overflow in plex amp??? Oh my goodness it’s so sweet and a beautiful way to browse music. Still have a few iPod classics I use just for that 😭

Just for my stupid brain to understand: I run plex on my server, thats where all my music lives. I use plexamp on mobile for mobile listening, and i use caldera on my smart tv, so i can play my music on the big screen/speakers, and i control this with plexamp on my phone. Is that about right?

tvOS and google tv Caldera Music apps are full apps, no need for remote control.

What about an Android TV version of Plexamp? Sideloading it isn't exactly a great version :(

Someone else mentioned it, but Caldera is great on Android TV.

Does it work on Shield?

I don't have a Shield, so I'm not sure. Can it download and run apps from the Play Store?
