Personal music servarr with a mobile app? (lemmy.world)

I've been on Tidal for years, but it's frustrating to use for lots of reasons (they only pay their artists slightly better than Spotify, streaming services are flaky, works poorly with my DLNA home speakers). I'm looking for something I can selfhost with the following features, and I would appreciate any suggestions in this direction:

  • integrates with downloading services (nzbget and qbittorrent; or better yet prowlarr)
  • has a suggestions/radio/mix feature, or integrates well with something that does. I currently use jellyseerr for other kinds of media, so something in that vein.
  • has a mobile app which lets me download all the tracks I want, or integrates with one that does. Big bonus points if the mobile app can play to DLNA speakers.

A bit about my lab:

  • Proxmox-based, lots of VMs and containers on 2 different cluster nodes. Lots of underprovisioned RAM in the cluster. Nodes run Fedora and I'm partial to quadlets, but I can convert anything to a quadlet if I need to.
  • Airvpn port tunneling is available to me.

TIA!

I was messing around with another jellyfin/emby instance specifically for my tunes and podcasts/audiobooks.

I think the app from fdroid was fintunes or finamp or something like that. Worked okay!

I second jellyfin / finamp combo. Make sure to checkout the beta version if you're getting it from the playstore, they are redoing some parts of the UI.

Thanks for this. Finamp looks really nice.

i really really enjoy jellyfin + symfonium - it's a paid app but it's super awesome imo

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Good suggestion! I intend to mess with finamp and symfonium. I had no idea jellyfin was so popular as a music backend so I'll just keep using that.

i switched from plex to jellyfin because i like the FOSS approach more. But plex is so incredibly much better as a music backend than jellyfin.

Jellyfin is fine, but not perfect

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I probably won't switch to Plex because of what they did with sharing all your activity without your consent, but I'm curious what you liked better about it as a music backend?

[–] RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago

I switched for that exact reason. And I certainly did not want them to share any of my activities 😁

It was just better with metadata, it was snappier when finding songs.

+1 for Jellyfin and Finamp but check out Audiobookshelf for podcasts and audiobooks. It even has regular checks for podcasts that you can set for rss feeds.

[–] LucidBoi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 years ago

jellyfin and finamp is an amazing combo
