I like the idea of playing music directly from the C4 UI. There are about a half dozen streaming music services that integrate directly into C4 and a few others with partial integration, like Spotify (via Spotify Connect) and Apple Music (via Shairbridge).įor more info on how to use a few music streaming services in C4 see: Tidal is one example of that and they provide lossless music. Is there a specific reason why you don't use streaming services, like your music isn't available on those services? You may want to consider subscribing to a music service that integrates well with C4. But fewer people are doing that these days as people are moving to music services like Spotify, Apple Music or Tidal or whatever to play music. C4 will then read the music files in and provide you with direct playback control with a nice UI with album art, etc. With C4 you can point the controller to hard drives on your Mac Mini with MP3 or other types of music files. You are probably better off playing music directly from the C4 UI rather than using Plex to play music. With Plex integrated into C4 I still will be able to view all my movies (all non iTunes), music (all mp3s and non iTunes), and my pictures? And with the Roku, I simply need to open the Plex app? Is this correct?ģ. Also what is the best way to integrate my Plex server into Control4? The Roku Ultra.or the Chowmein driver, isn’t the only difference with the Chowmein driver: I can launch media directly from the C4 menu. Will it be ok to use the apps from the TV?Ģ. Would I need to buy a Roku Ultra? I read that Roku is much easier to integrate into C4.
Purchased a new Sony smart Android TV X900H. I currently have all my media, movies, music & pictures on a Mac Mini running Plex. I am doing a lot of reading to learn more prior to moving in.ġ.
Keep in mind, I currently do not have C4 or have any previous experience with C4. We are getting ready to move into our newly constructed house which will have Control4! Super excited!
