I have 49 gb of music and at the moment i just sync it between my devices with syncthing. But i think it will be better if i stream it, as the storage on my phone is limited.
Which streaming server do you recommend?
I saw nextcloud music, but i have the feeling it’s half backed and it will just clog my nextcloud install. Or supysonic? Ampache?
I use Navidrome. Really well made clients for anything, ability to select transcoding method (or lack thereof) based on a client, changing of following songs etc.
I use navidrome, it’s pretty simple to setup and use and has support for many clients. For mobile I use Ultrasonic and sonixd for desktop
May not be the fanciest, but I use MPD.
When I’m home, it outputs to a pipe that feeds Snapcast for my multi-room audio. If I’m away, I can stream it through MALP on Android or through a web interface (myMPD)
this one too, for in-house hifi managing, is really great. I never used myMPD though, i’m using the basic http streaming feature and keep controlling from malp / vpn eventually.
Couple of questions for @[email protected]
-
can myMPD manage different users choosing to play different stuff at the same time ?
-
did you manage to have artist images on MALP at your control ? That only fanart is often wrong/inaccurate so i keep them off

I’ve been using Plex and Plexamp for ages. I have about two terabytes of flacs in my NAS, and Plexamp seamlessly encodes it to 128 kbps Opus when listening on a mobile network, or streams the flac as-is if on Wi-Fi. It has a good recommendation engine and a very nice UI. Worth the money, if you ask me.
Please do add a tag to your post as stated on the sublemmy sidebar! Thank you. :)
I use:
- raspberry pi w/Geekworm Raspberry Pi 4B/3B+/3B Full-HD DAC
- snapcast
- librespot-org
- mpd
- home assistant (which is part of a broader setup) to toggle between snap and mpd

I have one
/media/music
folder which I have connected to both Jellyfin and Gonic (Subsonic). I use Gonic because it’s lighter weight than Navidrome and I don’t care about a web interface.FinAmp is the nicest iOS music client I’ve found, and it only works with Jellyfin. On the Mac I recently started using SuperSonic (which is simple but has been more reliable for me than sonixd) which uses Gonic.
play:Sub is the most polished iOS SubSonic client, but I find the UI fussy and hard to use one-handed. Amperfy, SubStreamer, and Soundwaves are all worth trying but each frustrating in their own way. I like Amperfy the best at the moment.
I used Jellyfin with Finamp on my phone.
Jellyfin a million times over. It manages all your music and has get integrations and apps.
Also Jellyfin, but I use a paid app, S2 player. Been the best out of all I’ve tried so far. Can even aggregate with local music stored on the phone.
Watching on play store it tells me i even joined the beta testing for s2… My memory, i tried it and i completely forgot about it. Seems nice, i wonder why i uninstalled it
