Social recommendations and mentions

• Plex/Plexamp music tagging system is broken

  For those that dont know if you add an album that has multiple album artists ( artist 1;artist b) then plex/plexamp instead of showing the album in both artists pages and showing both artist tags as clickable (same way EVERY streaming service is serving music right now) it populates a new artists page named "artists a;artist b". They keep adding trash features that none cares about or even asks and don't even have... Source: 12 months ago

• What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?

  Just wanted to give quick plug for my music player app Supersonic! It's a client for Subsonic API-compatible servers, so it handles the UI and playback while the server (Gonic or LMS would be good lightweight choices for localhost-only setup) handles the library management/metadata indexing. It's a quite young project but I have lots of plans for continued improvement and new features (and would gladly accept... Source: about 1 year ago

• Any way to stream my nearly 2TB library from my iPhone?

  If you're concerned about power usage You can start with just a raspberry pi or something similar running something like Lightweight Music Server which uses a subsonic protocol. Then any app that can connect to a subsonic server like ultrasonic (not sure if this one specifically available for iOS). That's how I started before moving onto Plex and Plexamp.

• What's yout preferred selfhosted music streaming suite?

  I use LMS (Lightweight Music Server) to stream my music to desktop and mobile. It supports the Subsonic API for clients, scrobbling to ListenBrainz, has a nice web UI, and for some reason is the only music server that supports volume equalization with Replaygain. Source: over 1 year ago

• Looking for a good music playlist generator

  Not sure if that would fit your needs but https://github.com/epoupon/lms has a radio mode that automatically feeds the play queue with similar tracks. Just seed with some tracks (a whole album, a discography, a single track, etc.) and hit play. Source: over 1 year ago

• self hosted music server that sorts an artist's releases into singles/compilations/live albums/etc? not plex

  Https://github.com/epoupon/lms has 2 dedicated sections for albums, to isolate compilations. I guess adding more sections like singles/live albums should be feasible. Source: over 1 year ago

• Self-hosted service to keep track of new artist/album releases?

  For me playlist management in its current state is fine. In fact I moved from my previous self-hosted music service (LMS) precisely because it didn't have any playlist feature at all. Source: about 2 years ago

• CORS error with Lightweight Music Server

  I'm using a Docker Image for Lightweight Music Server and I have everything up and running. I'm planning to build my own front end using Vue and want to do requests to the Subsonic API of LMS. I've tried this with several similar services based on the Subsonic API without any issues. The reason I'm kind of determined to get LMS working fully is because it seems to treat albums with multiple artists and "album... Source: about 2 years ago

• Let's make a definitive guide to the subtle differences in Self Hosted Music Streaming.

  For LMS (https://github.com/epoupon/lms), it mainly focuses on (custom) tags, multi valued. Basically you can filter your music using whatever tag combination you set. It also handles various artist relationships (composers, producers, mixers, etc.) It scrobbles to listenbrainz and sync listens from it. Source: over 2 years ago
