I was highly interested in being able to use my plexamp client to stream music to moode.
Over the years, I used to use a simple solution called plexdlnaplayer to bridge my plexamp client to moode's UPNP renderer.
So I haven't touched a headless plexamp installation in quite some time.
My question now is:
- do you actually need plexamp headless? I mean does it add any additional features or do we simply need the option to stream from a plexamp client?
- how much overhead does plexamp headless add?
I'm asking these questions because a solution like I described above is simpler, its only a tiny, tiny docker container or app (depending on your preferred usage) which bridges plexamp client of UPNP. There are no licensing problems and no distribution problems.
Anyway, I am really happy to see work happening on integrating plexamp clients with moode.
