Full disclosure, I’m pretty new to selfhosting myself, and I haven’t written a guide like this before, but hopefully this scatterbrained writeup is enough for someone out there lmao
This is just what works for me and how I set it up. Always open to ideas for improvement as well.
That’s interesting to hear, finamp has been great for me for at least a year and a half. What kind of issues do you see if you don’t mind me asking
not OP, mine was miserable at detecting the song until i fixed my mp3’s internal tags.
It still crashes on some random songs on my kids playlist have never found out which one does it, it just stops playing randomly. I ended up ditching it for symphonium which isn’t free or open, but OMG. If found all my sonos, and my pixel tab and just streams, even plex has issues on my complicated network, they download your whole library list and handle searches and playlists locally instead of trying to get jellyfin to search/random which it’s not good at without plugins.
Is that the beta app or the actual release (unless they finally made it out of beta)? Just asking because there is a massive gap now between their last official release and the full app rewrite which was or is in beta for very long time already. New user may not want to go for the beta version, even though here it makes sense.
no sweat!
most of the library looks like this on anything that isn’t the native Jellyfin app on android.
I’ve struggled with it a few times before giving up.
still keep that jellyfin server running these days, on the same vm/container and library just in case.
Works fine (Finamp)
