[2082.22 --> 2086.06] Both of these are fantastic audio players that connect to both Jellyfin and Subsonic.
[2087.08 --> 2092.10] And Plex Amp, while it looks fantastic, it's a bit of an investment if you're not already in the Plex ecosystem.
[2092.64 --> 2093.60] So you wanted to pass these along.
[2093.60 --> 2102.52] So it looks like Symphomium, Symphomium, S-Y-M-F-O-N-I-U-M, and Sonic XD, S-O-N-I-X-D for the desktop.
[2102.86 --> 2106.34] I can give you some real-time feedback on my Plex Amp experiment if you'd like.
[2106.36 --> 2106.66] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[2106.92 --> 2107.22] Let's do it.
[2107.24 --> 2114.50] Both the wife and I quit Spotify a couple of months ago, and up until about a week ago, it's been going really, really well,
[2114.68 --> 2119.86] until I actually had a conversation with my wife and said, how are you finding Plex Amp?
[2119.86 --> 2124.16] And she goes, well, it's missing this, and now you mention it, it's missing that.
[2124.40 --> 2126.00] And I don't, can we download this?
[2126.12 --> 2132.30] And I'm like, I've just, I looked at my server, and I've got like five or six terabytes of music now,
[2132.50 --> 2134.76] and I'm still missing a bunch of stuff.
[2135.08 --> 2138.86] And LiDAR, you know, we talked about the Deezer script a while ago.
[2139.42 --> 2141.36] Just can't cope with that kind of volume.
[2141.48 --> 2144.96] It's just spinning its wheels and just gets lost in it.
[2144.96 --> 2149.36] So I am really enjoying Plex Amp on my side.
[2149.46 --> 2154.96] I've got pretty much all the music I regularly listen to, but we have resubscribed to Spotify.
[2155.78 --> 2157.18] I was tempted recently.
[2157.60 --> 2163.00] I was tempted because it's really nice to have Spotify on the studio equipment, and on Linux, it's nice to have Spotify sometimes.
[2163.06 --> 2163.94] But I haven't yet folded.
[2164.42 --> 2167.74] I have remained cancelled Spotify free.
[2168.14 --> 2170.02] I'm using YouTube music over here.
[2170.10 --> 2170.70] I'm a weirdo.
[2170.98 --> 2171.42] How is that?
[2171.60 --> 2172.08] How's that going?
[2172.68 --> 2173.12] It's okay.
[2173.22 --> 2179.60] I used to use the Google Play music back when that still existed, partially because I could upload a bunch of my own black files to it.
[2179.66 --> 2180.58] And so I still have those.
[2181.16 --> 2182.00] And I don't know.
[2182.04 --> 2182.98] I like having a subscription.
[2183.34 --> 2186.10] It's very convenient for discovery for just random stuff I don't care about.
[2186.66 --> 2191.44] But because I can no longer upload to it, I do find I'm more interested in some of these, you know, Plex Amp.
[2191.76 --> 2192.52] I'm going to check out some of them here.
[2192.52 --> 2193.86] Doesn't Apple Music let you do that?
[2194.02 --> 2195.02] Let you upload your own?
[2195.32 --> 2196.66] Yeah, we should get Wes on an iPhone.
[2196.66 --> 2197.02] Yeah.
[2198.20 --> 2199.86] I've been trying that for three years.
[2200.52 --> 2201.28] When you got me.
[2201.50 --> 2201.90] Yeah.
[2202.08 --> 2202.64] That one won.
[2202.82 --> 2204.68] Yeah, well, I got you to have a kid first.
[2204.78 --> 2206.18] I took the long play on that one.
[2206.26 --> 2207.58] First, I convinced you guys to have a kid.
[2207.96 --> 2210.84] So then you would be felt motivated to get good camera optics.
[2211.90 --> 2216.36] Hey, I tell you what, there was an example of streaming service entropy this week.
[2217.66 --> 2223.56] Snoop Dogg has decided to take a couple of his most famous albums, one of which is called Doggy Style.
[2224.82 --> 2227.12] And I listened to that album a surprising amount, actually.
[2227.52 --> 2230.06] And I went on Spotify the other day and it's gone.
[2230.74 --> 2231.22] Do you know why?
[2232.02 --> 2233.20] He's trying to sell it as an NFT.
[2236.02 --> 2237.46] So I fired up Plex Amp.
[2237.60 --> 2237.90] Boom.
[2238.00 --> 2238.58] Straight away.
[2238.78 --> 2242.46] You know, so I have Doggy Style in Plex Amp.
[2242.94 --> 2245.14] And all that money you saved on your Spotify subscription.
[2245.40 --> 2246.42] You know, now you can buy the NFT.
[2246.42 --> 2247.26] Now I can buy the NFT.
[2247.26 --> 2250.50] I don't know, man.
[2250.52 --> 2251.22] I'm sitting here.
[2251.30 --> 2252.16] It's a little bittersweet.
[2252.40 --> 2254.06] I don't really want to talk about this next story.
[2254.26 --> 2256.34] But for some people out there, maybe they care.
[2256.50 --> 2258.06] New version of Home Assistant came out.
[2258.20 --> 2259.10] But it doesn't matter.
[2259.18 --> 2260.52] I'm not upgrading because I can't.
[2260.60 --> 2261.24] But come on.
[2261.28 --> 2263.08] It's packed with amazing features.
[2263.08 --> 2264.46] I knew they would do this to me.
[2264.56 --> 2267.24] I knew the version, because this is where they dropped my Z-Wave.
[2267.54 --> 2268.72] And I knew they would do this.
[2268.78 --> 2269.94] Tons of new stuff that I want.
[2270.28 --> 2271.26] But it is really good.
[2271.50 --> 2271.94] Yeah, it is.
[2272.04 --> 2273.66] There's a few things that stand out to me.
[2273.88 --> 2275.66] The one, there's a couple.
[2275.86 --> 2278.50] Let's start off with the group stuff.
[2278.50 --> 2281.74] So now you can create groups in the user interface directly.
[2282.22 --> 2286.02] Previously, you would have to drop to the YAML configuration to do that.
[2286.74 --> 2287.84] It's a nice little change.
[2288.18 --> 2291.36] Along with a new hide entities function.
[2291.52 --> 2292.34] Yes, finally.
[2292.68 --> 2297.20] Which lets you hide the constituent lights, say, of a particular group.
[2297.86 --> 2298.80] That's really nice.
[2298.88 --> 2299.26] That is.
[2299.34 --> 2300.12] I want that already.
[2300.74 --> 2304.62] Now, another one that got me pretty excited was switch as X.
[2304.62 --> 2310.64] So in my Home Assistant YAML right now, I have a bunch of, I don't know what you call them,
[2310.68 --> 2314.78] but they basically convert a switch into a light or a cover.
[2315.14 --> 2315.16] Right.
[2315.26 --> 2318.10] Or in my case, a smart plug into a heater or something like that.
[2318.10 --> 2318.18] Exactly.
[2318.36 --> 2318.76] Right.
[2319.00 --> 2319.18] Yep.
[2319.32 --> 2326.20] And switch as X now lets me set directly in the configuration of that smart plug.
[2326.44 --> 2329.36] I can now show that as a light.
[2329.66 --> 2329.98] Mm-hmm.
[2330.46 --> 2333.00] Zones, the entire zone can now have a state.
[2333.00 --> 2334.68] That's really nice to see.
