Is it your local server, which streams music for your PC and phone? Is it something else?
What about streaming music from your server to your work laptop?
I personally just use local music playback, with SyncThing for syncing between devices. That mean I can listen to them offline!
On Android, I use Auxio, but Lotus and Chocola (previously CuteMusic) are awesome too.
On Linux, I use an mpd-based option called rmpc. Tauon and Gapless are also great! As for mobile Linux, Gapless is a good option that works pretty well. You might also like Plattenalbum, a GTK-based MPD client.
Navidrome server, which I access either through the web UI or through the Tempus app on Android
GoneMAD playing a local music library I keep on my phone.
Just sync my files to my sd card.
On my phone I use VLC player to play files that I saved on local storage.
Plexamp
If I’m working then normally I use the smart playlists to mix it up a little.
Feishin on Desktop. Symfonium on phone. (I can also recommend Tempo, which is open source but doesn’t work over Android Auto last I tried.) To host my music I use Navidrome. Which I have setup as a docker container, behind a reverse proxy. The files are stored on my NAS. To access remotely I have Wireguard setup. That being said, to use Android Auto with Symfonium while my Navidrome is only accessible on my network or over VPN I use split tunneling otherwise Android Auto throws a fit.
I have a very similar setup. I work from home and use a tablet with symphonium for radio and my personal collection. When I’m in the car since I don’t have Android Auto, I just connect my phone with the Bluetooth. And I use tailscale as the VPN.
I’m just curious about the reason for both a reverse proxy and wireguard? If using a proxy (Nginx/etc), I would expect it to be exposed to the internet.
The reverse proxy is infernal. I type sub.domain.tld to get to my internal site. All with automated certs.
Makes it so I dont have to remember IP and port combos
Makes sense, I do something similar but just for things I want to access externally. I started adding some internal only ones but ultimately decided I was too lazy to remember the names and already knew the IPs/ports.
I use a combination of a custom built Caddy Docker container, Technitium for DNS, and DNSWeaver.
Automated DNS Entries, Automated Reverse Proxy entries all with Docker labels.
Sounds like an awesome setup, but I’ll stick with remembering the IP:port, its just easier for me to remember numbers than whatever words I used when I set it up.
Hey all good by me. Different setups for different folk!
Don’t use an app, just Swing Music
Navidrome server.
Mobile: dsub2000
Desktop: feishin (or sometimes my own tui client)
At work, youtube with ublock origin, adblock plus, etc, preventing the ads
Sometimes I’ll stream stuff from bandcamp
On the move, the SD card in my phone (with pairdrop.net to upload albums) playing through VLC
Is there a way to prevent the “are you still watching” shit on YouTube? I do the same and that’s the one drawback.
Ah, that I don’t know.
I spend a lot of time listening to a “Live” stream and that doesn’t seem to have thst problem… but if I listen to a playlist, yeah I have that problem.
However, I often have to stop to speak to someone / get coffee, so that seems to reset the timer so it’s not toooo bad for me
Makes sense, I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks!
I recently set up Navidrome on my home server. I listen using Symphonium. Its all basically “Spotify but my own music collection.”
Jellyfin as a server where my music is hosted.
Jellyfin’s web client to stream on my personal laptop.
Symphonium to stream on my Android phone, and sometimes Deezer (when I want to check out new songs).
Deemix to extract songs I like from Deezer to my server.
Tailscale for external access.
On my work laptop I only listen to online radios, or I just use my phone. I guess I could connect to my server on it, but the laptop belongs to my company, so I avoid any access to my personal stuff.
Same. Except work seems to block my cloudflare tunnel so I have to use Synology reverse proxy.
Copy stuff from my nas to phone (cable or x-plore), play independently with pulsar+
I’m more and more leaning to this solution. I only have a 8GB phone data plan, and refuse to waste any of it on my recreational music listening, nor will I ever see the need for paying for more mobile data.
My next phone needs a microsd slot, I miss them so much!
Yes it’s one of those things they removed to upsell internal storage.
Also, with music on the phone itself you’ll never have communication issues while playing.
I guess that is a way.
It is indeed and it has absolutely no dependencies, which is what I am going for.
Rock on with yo’ bad self.
Navidrome server on the NAS. If I’m away from home and using a computer, I have it exposed to the internet and just use the web app.
On my home computer I’ve been using PsySonic lately and like it quite a bit. Quirks here and there, but it does get updates.
On my phone, and so just about everywhere, I use Symfonium. None of the FOSS apps I found last year did it for me. Symfonium is ridiculously customizable.
