how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?
-
Why do I see no mentions of Ampache here? From what I found, it was the only program except Navidrome to support nested smart playlist, and Ampache has the editor directly in the web interface.
Anyways, I host mine too! Over 2TB of music files on my server, and it runs pretty well.
Wow. Maybe create some torrents out of your collection?

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!
thanks for this community, my scrolling stops INSTANTLY when i see a post from here.
(oh my music server is a truenas SMB share, hosted in a proxmox vm! not opposed to putting a big SSD in this device if local music would make things easier)
I currently host Navidrome, which has an okay web player. On Android I use "Tempo" (though it is unmaintained) to connect to it, and on Linux I use Tauon (though it has very poor playback). I could not find a native Linux client that is not buggy unfortunately, so I'm also on the lookout for better solutions!
I'm not familiar with the device you are talking about but every client I tried supports MPRIS, which are the regular media controls that can be used via theplayerctlcommand, so you should be able to hook things up that way. -
I use Music assistant , an add on for Home Assistant. All managed in the home assistant app and played through my sonos speakers. Its great
This project shows a lot of promise and I am following it. I run HomeAssistant as well in my home server. At this time though (or:last time I checked) it didn't support cuesheets at all, it fell a little short for my use case.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]They're available in Soulseek! Both Soulseek and Ampache share the same directory. I was thinking of creating a torrent, but I am still in the process of deduplicating them, so I decided against it.

2TB? How!
Currently sat on 5GB across 920 files
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Well, I don't actually play all of them in a straight line; it's more of an archive. Still, my main playlist is few thousand songs long, which is created with smart playlists.

Uncompressed flac? That's a shit ton of music...

I share a Spotify family plan with friends, but I use Zotify to make backups, which I then host in Jellyfin.

It is, but it requires GPlay to operate and maintain your sub.
I switched to Subtracks when I dumped Google.

also i am having trouble hunting down what cuesheets means in this context?
When you rip an audio CD you can either create one file for each track or you can rip the entire CD as one track and create a cue sheet file which is basically a text file describing where each track starts in that single audio file. This can be useful to have an exact copy of the CD without adding unintended gaps between tracks. It is primarily useful if you intend on recreating the actual audio CD at a later time from the ripped data. Most people don't need this.
Cool nick! But it could be even better!

My problem is that I cannot find a selfhosting solution that has the nuts to spool up 80k+ hi-res, original sourced, flac files that reside on two 10TB drives through my ancient technology. MusicBee is the closest thing I've come across, but that is local, and it struggles. I stay around the compound now days so local is ok, but it would be nice to stream out on the back porch without cranking my stereo to 11 so I can hear. I have bluetooth options but range is an issue.

Emby. It is so far, the nicest music client on iOS that I’ve been able to find.

local storage server as a backup and to download my music to my devices (ik jellyfin is better then this but i already had the storage set up)

Howdy Fellow Emby user!
i did like using emby for music and podcasts, but i was always perturbed by having to dig through the emby app to get to music. i tried using a different profile for music only but then got annoyed at having to swap back and forth.
so at the crib, are you airplaying from your phone? what's your audio pipeline look like?

if you can, don't be afraid to pull some wires! i come from a low-voltage background, and am getting ready to run some cabling for distributed audio.
found some old control4 gear that can be controlled directly from Home Assistant, no control4 processor required!

I installed it via nix because it isn't in the Fedora repos as far as I could tell
-
I use it and like its UI but it doesn't properly support offline, you can just download single tracks. By proper offline support I mean something like Audinaut, which unfortunately doesn't work in new Android versions
I worked around that by making a smart playlist in Navidrome with all my tracks sorted by date added. In Tempo you can then download the entire playlist.
