LMS VS Subsonic

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 a basic feature that projects like Lightweight Music Server already have.

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 contributions)!

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.

Good time to move your library to something else like LMS https://github.com/epoupon/lms

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.

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.

LMS - LightWeight Music Server https://github.com/epoupon/lms Super fast with a good set of features. Seems to be well coded in general.

Hmm, that link shows me my IP address is banned (I assume from the time when the provider I use had dynamic IPs so a whole range is banned). Anyway - is it this? https://github.com/epoupon/lms

https://github.com/epoupon/lms has a built in recommandation engine to help you find similar tracks (in your collection) to what is in your current play queue.

Maybe Substreamer has a problem with a specific server? The server I used is here (open-source): https://github.com/epoupon/lms/blob/master/INSTALL.md

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
