Plexamp for mac series#
It automatically sorts by season (if you've tagged things correctly), and usually puts up the correct card for any series you've put there. I love that you can create libraries to use as sort of short cuts to series (I have "libraries" for things like Better Call Saul, MASH, etc.). “similar artists” is pulled from last.I've been using Plex for years with video exclusively and I've had few problems. You can set it to prefer tags (in particular, useful for Genre), but some things are always pulled from Mbz. Plex pulls in a lot of info from Musicbrainz, like release type (album, single, live, dj mix, etc), record label, mood, etc. If nine tracks are from 1975 and one from 2010, all ten songs will show as 2010.
Meaning, if you have one Reggae song and nine Rock songs on the album, all ten songs on the album will have Reggae and Rock as genres. Its internal structure is album-centric: for example it cannot store individual years and genres for a song, only per-album. It doesn’t support multiple artists (neither for songs nor for albums, it just uses the first artist and ignores all subsequent ones), and fields like Composer, Remixer, Conductor, Producer, etc are not read/used. Plex does not read all tags and has a few metadata quirks. Plex reads tags, but indeed also takes into account folder/filenames, so it helps to follow their naming guidelines This can grow big with libraries this size, easily 40 GB or so. Plex caches album covers in its working folder, usually on the OS drive. The initial scan will take a long time (we’re talking days) for a library that size, it matches each album against Musicbrainz, and also performs sonic analysis on each file. I’m running a library of 170,000 tracks, it works well.
How do large libraries impact the Plex server as far as database storage and does it ever impact the regular Plex "video" performance while scanning and performing other Plexamp processes?.Does Plexamp have any issues with large music libraries? Ours is currently around 3TB in size with around 100,000 Flac tracks.While it's great in our home environment, I would like the family to have a mobile app connected to our music and I love the sound of what Plex has done with the Plexamp app.īefore I start opening my library folders to Plex, I have a few questions: I've been using Foobar to manage my music library for a long time now.
