Navidrome
There really isn't any decent alternative. I can run 4 Navidrome servers along side each other using less resources than a single copy of the alternatives. It just works and does almost everything you could want.
Navidrome even supports multiple libraries now. I was using 2 instances for a bit for my wife and I, but now it's all in one.
I didn't realize they had updated. That's great! I knew it was on the timeline but it works so well even with multiple instances I hadn't been watching for it.
Yep! They released it like a week after I just set up a second instance lmao
The only catch I noticed is that the default "/music" library can't be changed, so I set up my directories in the container like:
All 5 are set up as separate libraries, and I keep "/music/ in the container mounted to an empty directory. The discover folders are populated when Explo runs each week, that's a whole project of its own.
Thanks, I already have it up and running. Works great!
+1 for Navidrome. As simple as pasting the album into the directory and it sorts the rest. I use subtune on my phone to access it and it works great.
Agree with Navidrome. Works great in browser and the Substreamer ios app.
Another vote for navidrome. I tried substreamer on android ibdid not like the search. I use symfonium easy interface let's me randomize in many ways.
On a side question anybody have suggestions for automatically creating genre based m3u files? I would like to setup "radio" like stations but adding my music to a playlist.
Not sure this is what you are looking for but navidrome has smart playlists, which is a small configuration file you can add to your navidrome and will automagically create a playlist in your navidrome based on your config.
Filter by genre tag to make the finding part easier?
I tried their demo, and I really dig the minimalist approach. Might give it a shot.
