So I'm finally fed up so completely with iTunes that I'm looking to stop using it entirely; increasingly poor performance and a continuing lack of h.265 support are the final nails in its coffin, as I'm sick of my media library being double the size that it needs to be just to remain compatible with a program that Apple insists on making worse with every new release.
Rant aside, I've been using Plex Media Server on my main machine for a while now for streaming to a Mac Mini that I have in my living room, but until now I've been continuing to use iTunes locally for music playback for the ease of use via Home Sharing, since my media library is hosted under its own user account, while I use two other accounts for work and general use.
On the Mac Mini I'm using OpenPHT as a client, and am very pleased with it, however, while the interface is great for a remote it's a bit clunky for keyboard/mouse, and it also seems to prevent my computer from sleeping. The latter isn't a major issue I guess, since I can still put my computer to sleep manually, but it's inconvenient as sometimes I like to leave my computer awake if a Time Machine backup is running, safe in the knowledge it'll go to sleep when that's done.
So I'm wondering if there are any alternatives out there that are more music focused, but can still use my Plex shared music library? I've tried a few other music players, but haven't noticed any that support Plex as a media source yet.
