    I also enjoy Navidrome. What does Musicassistant add for you? Seems like it can do a whole lot

    Nice frontend plus Spotify integration for the library and then selecting different output sources from said frontend.

      that was a big choke point for me for a while also!

      thanks. but am i blind or are they just giving up on getting in run in docker in lxc on proxmox?

      "No clue about how to do it through docker in an LXC."

      it was a big choke point? that thread alone says dont use jellyfin.

        Have you had problems on android with tempo not continuing playback?

        I also run navidrome, and have tried tempo, substreamer, and another client I can't think of, and any of the clients that stream keep stopping playback after one song when the screen is locked.

        I've given the client all the permissions for running in the background and using battery that I can and no matter what I do, it'll just stop after one song.

        I'm on a pixel 7a with gOS.

        For now I've settled on Poweramp with tla selection of the music on my phone since I can't fit it all in storage. Its been really frustrating.

        Sometimes I get this error you mentioned but I'm usually driving and can't see what track triggers this behavior but I guess this has something to do with the song format or codec. I usually just hit next and play to keep listening to my songs ..

          right now I'm trying a dedicated Jellyfin instance for audio only (bought the lifetime emby subscription before i learned about jellyfin, so video is elsewhere) but having trouble finding a good client that could run on the guts of an old autonomic MMS2A. That device has an analog and digital output, which with the normal OS treated as two separate sources. is that something anyone else has tinkered with? the original plan was to just run a kodi instance with the jellyfin addon, but im not sure if this has the horsepower to run kodi, and certainly not two at once! (4gb of ram max for this beast.

          i need it to be remotely controllable, it'd be cool to have easy playlist management/backup that other devices could see, and potentially an android client if possible?

          I've dabbled with the "____sonic" ecosystem back before i was really good at linux, and struggled a bunch, before giving up without anything real to show for it.

          just curious if anyone else has been down this road successfully!

            Mpd + a frontend of your choosing, I prefer ncmpcpp, will run on just about anything and is remotely controlled through apps or ssh. Mpd is great when the server is physically connected to the audio output device. I use it to remotely control a speaker connected server that can also run Plex (because I prefer plexamp for streaming and syncing to my phone, other android devices, and smart speakers). They both look at the same directory of a collection near 30 years in the making with hundreds of thousands of files and a wide array of formats.

              Plex and Plexamp. I know the dislike for Plex here, but it works for me and Plexamp is a fantastic piece of kit which, in opinion is worth the lifetime sub alone.

              Plexamp is mind blowingly good. Great UX. Perfect reliability. No discovery/ads up in your face. Just you listening to your music how you like it. Streaming is ROCK SOLID. Downloads work flawlessly. It just relies on proper metadata in Plex.

                Have always preferred Emby. Have been running it for around 8 years.

                  What did you dislike about synfonium? I'm considering switching since I don't have a plex subscription anyway so I did not get to enjoy the sonic analysis featured etc.

                  I can't say there was anything that I really disliked about it, I actually really liked the app overall but I've been using Plexamp since basically the first public release so that just feels a bit more familiar. Plus I heavily use the sonic analysis features which I don't believe exist outside of plexamp (please someone tell me if I'm wrong here).

                    VM having a EXT4 disk on a ZFS storage.
                    Files are (usually) FLAC
                    Files are ripped from CD with Exact Audio Copy (EAC)
                    Alternatively they are bought or 'lent' out 😉
                    Files are managed by Lidarr.
                    Jellyfin for streaming.
                    On mobile I use Symfonium (alternative: FinAmp or Gelli).

                    Basically my setup but without ZFS (kept randomly crashing entirely, probably not a great nvme) or ripped CDs, haven't had a disk drive in over a decade lol

                      The ZFS is in my case just TrueNAS. Can't trust myself setting that up 😄

                        I tried to set mine up through Proxmox, after 3-10 days the whole ZFS pool would crash and I'd have to reboot the machine to get it functional again. I'm sure I either did something wrong with config or the 4 year old consumer nvme I had it set up on just couldn't handle it lol

                          Maybe the disk was running out of spare storage cells and ate into the actual data partition and corrupting the data table (if that's even possible)

                            I use navidrome for the streaming and lidarr for downloads. I am not totally thrilled with navidrome as I can not play genres. I want to setup an icecast streaming server with individual "channels" for each genre

                              MPD (Music Player Daemon) would be perfect for that old Autonomic - super lightweight, runs on practically anythng, and Symfonium is an amazing Android client that supports it natively.

                                      MPD (Music Player Daemon) would be perfect for that old Autonomic - super lightweight, runs on practically anythng, and Symfonium is an amazing Android client that supports it natively.
