Automating Spotify playlists into Plexamp is still messy
The goal is to let family members add music to separate Spotify playlists, download those songs to a server, and keep playlists in Plexamp. Getting music from Spotify onto the server seems possible with tools such as , Spotify to Plex, and Lidarr. The hard part is recreating or updating the same playlists inside Plexamp after the files are on the server.
Aurral looks useful for finding new music, but it does not yet support Spotify sync. One is to run several , send each playlist to a different folder, and then build playlists from those folders, but that setup is clumsy.
Key points
- The aim is to move Spotify playlist music to a server and mirror it in Plexamp.
- , Spotify to Plex, and Lidarr can help with the Spotify-to-server step.
- The unresolved problem is keeping identical Plexamp playlists in sync.
- Aurral has music discovery features but no Spotify sync yet.
- Using separate folders per playlist is possible, but it is awkward to maintain.
