Iris VS Subsonic

I use ncmpcpp to control it on the terminal, but it has a web interface Iris: https://github.com/jaedb/Iris

For multi-room-audio, I use Iris+Mopidy+Snapcast [2] alternative frontend to my Funkwhale library.

Right now I'm reading about mopidy and iris (I have a server with some docker services and it would be nice using it as a Spotify connect device), I think this setup could be extended with extra algorithms, maybe they already exist as modipy extensions. I've never gone into detail about these but I'll do it!

Hi, I'm kind of newbie to self-hosting things, however i know how to work with docker. What I actually don't get is how to setup this https://github.com/jaedb/Iris ...

My Server runs Proxmox; I have several Unprivileged LXC Container which run individual Docker Systems inside (another blog post on this); one such is the Iris/Mopidy Container that acts like a "audio-gateway" in my setup. My iris container is based off the official docker-compose.yml. If not playing multi-room audio, I do prefer Funkwhale - I have my own private Funkwhale instance, that plays local mp3 files (mounted read-only). Iris/Mopidy connect via API to my Funkwhale and I can search my audio collection from Iris, too (I had to create a inherited docker container from the Iris one)

Snapcast is awesome, especially when bundled together with Iris and Mopidy [1], which included links to Youtube, Soundcloud, Funkwhale, podcasts, streams (etc). I wrote a blog post on how to build a small Raspi Zero Image for Snapcast [2] that directly connects to the Snapserver included in (e.g.) the Iris Docker [3]. I added a modified Docker Image for Iris that includes the Funkwhale extension here [4]. Works flawlessly since 2 years, almost zero maintenance and great music experience. My synchronized Snapcast extents through several rooms and two houses (120km apart), through IPSEC with a very small bandwidth (5000kbit up). Many thanks to all the maintainers of this stunning stack of OSS.

You can connect Iris to Funkwhale - I prefer the Funkwhale app, but added Iris to my stack because other can easily play music on my Sound system.

I use Iris which has a pretty awesome integration w/ Spotify. There's a TIDAL integration with Mopidy but it doesn't integrate with Iris and is completely hacky.

Dsub is open source so someone can always create a fork and continue development ;) https://github.com/daneren2005/Subsonic

Not a solution but you're subscribed at the official issue I guess?

What are you talking about? There was a new patch version published 3 months ago. Pull requests are still getting merged regularly.

One example of that would be the "Dsub" client for Android https://github.com/daneren2005/Subsonic

DSub 5.5.2: Play music across the network
