Spotty what? Can't hear you guys over the music I am blasting on my Navidrome server

[–] SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago

Bookmarked for future purposes. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm going to try this. For what ever reason I can't use music files for Jellyfin and I basically gave up on it.

[–] almino@lemmy.eco.br 7 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Jellyfin sucks for music streaming. It is also very picky with file permissions.

Have zero problems with Jellyfin as the Server, Symfonium as the client on mobile / music assistant for streaming to sonos at home

[–] IllNess 4 points 4 days ago

Thanks for confirming. Felt like I was doing too much work to get it to not work.

Hey guys, I said "MUSIC STREAMING". I use Jellyfin for video streaming and I think it's the best right now. I just don't like its GUI for music. That said, Jellyfin is a great app but it has some flaws. In my opinion, music handling is the worst part of Jellyfin.

mpd and wireguard do the trick for me, but I'm a simple man with a nice uplink.

Does it have a phone app that also lets you search for and add new music on the go? I'm trying to get my wife off Spot but she refuses without this ability.

[–] TxzK@lemmy.zip 7 points 4 days ago

Unfortunately, no. You can't add music through any apps or the web UI. To add music, you have to add files into a folder. And due to security reasons, Navidrome accesses that folder as read-only and therefore can't write anything to it.

Slskd can be setup to do this.

It's wild to me that Soulseek persists despite being entirely mediated by a single central server. I would have thought it would have gotten the takedown long ago.

Also the fact that it doesn't swarm, only does one to one peer sharing is kind of odd to me, but I guess it actually makes some sense in that it constrains the network to being more optimal for smaller files like music and so keeps video off of the platform for the most part.

Worth noting that the Soulseek Wikipedia page lists a bunch of clients you can use, including Seeker for Android and others for all platforms including Linux

[–] DarkSirrush@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago

Yeah, there are a fair number of nice clients, slskd is just designed to fit into an existing automation flow, and can be accessed through a web browser (though of course you should always practice proper security and avoid exposing it to the web directly).

[–] AlexanderTheGreat@piefed.social 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Never heard of it before. I'll take a look. Thanks.

If you are too young to have lived through the napster revolution it's very much a throwback to that kind of sharing so you get to experience p2p like it's the late 90s only with good network speeds. For an authentic experience limit your download to 56k.
