I've been using Plexamp to play my music library on my windows computer to the Yamaha controller+speakers that is on my wifi. MusicCast is the app that Yamama provides, but it doesn't really like the music library on the PC. I switched to Plexamp, which is great when it works, but it isn't recognizing a new CD I just burned. I verified the metadata was updated with Picard, and I manually hit the scan library button, but it still doesn't recognize the new music folder. It also has the wrong artist name for this one artist, even though the metadata is correct for those albums as are the folder names. Nor will it let me edit those tracks for some reason. So I'm looking to see what my other options are.

• I don't care about playing my music when I'm away from home, so really just want to play on devices on my wifi.
• I don't want to control it via my laptop as I have a 2 story house with a basement, and my phone is easier to carry around than my laptop. I currently have an iphone.
• I want to be able to play my music collection on random, either by genre or by playlist (preferably a smart playlist so I don't have to update it every time I add new music). I sometimes listen by artist or by album, but mostly I like by all tracks within a genre.
• I have almost 7000 tracks, most are of the genre I primarily listen to, so it needs to be able to handle that size.
• I used to use an NAS, but it is very old and am not wanting to spend that kind of money right now replacing it (esp since it primarily holds pictures and music, and I might also move out the US in the next 5 years and won't be able to bring the NAS with me - not worth the $600+ cost right now).
• I'm only slightly to moderately tech savvy. I can do more than most, but that isn't saying something.

Any recommendations?

I emailed my Dr but she is out this week :( Appreciate any input anyone has to make it through.

I've been struggling with...everything. Like I'm wading through mud or something. Or that my dopamine isn't working. The anhedonia is worse? I'm doing things but largely going through the motions. Everything is overwhelming. No libido of any kind either. And the last couple of days I want to cry at various times out of the blue (my mood is up and down all day).

I was on the (.05mg) patch, but switched to generic divigel (1mg) because I was sick of the shortage issues, sick of the stickiness that sometimes didn't come off for weeks, sick of the red patches even with the nasal spray, etc. Part of the issue with the shortage is the brand switching - I'd bleed any time there was a change. So when I started bleeding after switching to the gel I wasn't surprised. But this was full on bleeding for 5 days. And then it came back after about 11 days. And it kept happening (so like 15-17 day cycles with 5 days of bleeding...whew!).

So my Dr upped my progesterone from 100 to 200mg. I remember not doing well on Depo*, and was concerned about this dose but thought I'd give it a shot. It has been a month since the change. I'm guessing this dose isn't great for me? Can I do like 100mg one day then 200mg the next day and alternate like that? or is there no point? Or maybe it isn't just the progesterone? I don't know anymore, not even sure what to ask.

I have a consult with GYN at the end of the month, so trying to figure out how to make it until then (and until whatever changes they make kick in). Or at least until my Dr gets back. Any help is appreciated.

*have a history of pmdd and was on low dose pill continuously for 15 or so years until I quit at 50. I wasn't spotting, but had been having night sweats, so no idea where I was in the process. I didn't bleed for over 6 months, then a deluge happened for 2 weeks that very painful. Then had a cycle for 4 months, then stopped. then started testosterone due to no orgasms, then a few months after that estrogen/progesterone for night hot flashes (I don't sweat much anymore). Though now I wonder if my night hotness is just a summer thing...that's another can of worms. ok, I'll shut up now trying to anticipate questions lol

I am unable to install the doorbell chime. Whenever I scan the QR code it gives me an incorrect qr code. I tried it with and without the light. I tried it like 10 times. I also manually input the serial number and it also returned an error saying it wasn’t correct. Help?
