Your first thought when thinking of Plex may be video content like TV shows and movies, but it can also store music, and it’s quite good at it. I’ll continue to investigate and see if I can find any additional data to assist.Android Auto’s list of compatible services continues to increase and in its most recent update, Plex finally joined the list. I’ll let you view the actual logs for details on each issue as well as the relevant debug details. I’m wondering if we aren’t running into some issues with some of said cached content perhaps loading a bad section of the song, and then in a subsequent playback, it hits that bad section and crashes.Ĭomponents resulting in errors in the logs below across these 2 crashes: Songs that i’ve not listed to in days appear to still be playable despite keeping internet disabled on my mobile device
The exact text of the error is “Plexamp doesn’t seem to be working right now” with an exclamation point. I cannot 100% say this is exactly the same issue as i’ll be honest, sitting in my garage with good wifi and decent LTE seems to result in things working as expected, but I think that supports that its something to do with Caching/streaming of content. More info to come, but if you see anything helpful in either of the attached logs, please let me know or if you would like me to test anything specifics, I can do that too.Ģ more logcat files with actual errors in them. I would expect it to stop playing when it cannot stream the content, but in my inital testing, it seems this may result in the same/similar message indicated above.
The area I live in has lots of trees and hills, both of which lead to momentairy to brief lapses in connectivity (1-2 minutes) while driving. I’ll try to gather some more info, but this could make sense. Evetually though, I find a song that won’t play (due to it likely not being cached) and I received a similar error as described above. I did some testing, and keeping in mind I am only streaming at the moment, it seems that when I start a playlist I can disconnect from LTE and Wifi and still play quite a few songs within plexamp as if they were cached on the device. After 20-30 seconds, I am returned to the pelxamp main homescreen with the now playing button clearly dispalyed to the left right where I had left off, but the music does not auto resume. The center portion of the screen goes black and then a message appears that says saying an error has occured (going to get a screenshot of this ASAP for exact text). I am on the main now playing screen listening to music and advancing through songs I don’t want to listen to right now. I do not currently have any music downloaded to my device, so this is strictly streaming. Specifically, here is what I am seeing (and i’ll attempt to get a photo/video if I can later). In the span of about 5 minutes I was able to reproduce the issue twice. I’ve also attached a debug logs from within Plexamp itself. Totally understand, difficult to fix what you can’t see!Īttached are the logcat logs from my device (Pixel 3 XL on a Sony XAV-AX7000) both running latest software/firmware (I can confirm version numbers if needed).
