TauonMusicBox VS jellyfin-expo

Whatever you name it, try to make the UI look like Tauon Music Box. I love that application but its built on GTK3 I believe.

Finding music players that support any kind of rating is already difficult, since many devs ignore or straight up hate this feature entirely, and the most commonly used Popularimeter (POPM) standard in ID3 tags is apparently not always consistent.

This isn't a major release, but its been a year since I posted this here on r/linux and there's been many releases in that time. You can check version release notes here: https://github.com/Taiko2k/TauonMusicBox/releases.

TauonMusicBox

TauonMusicBox supports Jellyfin and Spotify if I recall correctly.

The only documentation on connecting to Jellyfin I have is this page. Its a little vague but if you have setup a Jellyfin server it should be obvious what information needs to be entered.

Jellyfin Mobile issue

Yeah this is exactly right. I am hoping to have download support available as a user setting under a “beta” status in the next release of the expo app. Progress can be followed here.

The iOS app is open source, so you are welcome to contribute a PR: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-expo

It's maintaned by a single developer in his spare time, so I'm sure he'd appreciate it!

Timelines are hard, especially when it's an entirely volunteer ran project and there's effectively only one person working on the client in question (who also works on 2-3 other clients as well, and has a day job). So the "when" is basically whenever somebody with the time and skills is willing to work on implementing the things in the linked issue here, which would probably be the best place for you to follow if you want updates.

The current implementation in development is really barebones… additional work on it is being tracked here: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-expo/issues/372

Not yet, but it is in the works…
