open-subsonic-api VS gelli

- OpenSubsonic (A long term effort that I started to improve Subsonic clients and servers https://github.com/opensubsonic/open-subsonic-api. Already quite a few new features for some servers)

There's a work in progress with many servers https://github.com/opensubsonic/open-subsonic-api/discussions/23 to improve things and bpm is part of that.

Added: Officially embrace OpenSubsonic as the future of Subsonic API. (GitHub - opensubsonic/open-subsonic-api: Repository hosting the definition and discussions of the Open Subsonic API 9) New option to consider tag ratings as user ratings for local device custom tag parser. Added a more actions entry to now playing queue songs menu. Added a force album split on album artist tag for custom tag parser (In addition to folder splitting, only needed with perfect tags and all songs in the same folder). Added a Hide composer only filter to global artist list.

And support Plex, Emby, Jellyfin, Kodi, Subsonic and (OpenSubsonic https://github.com/opensubsonic/open-subsonic-api) so nearly any server choice you make Symfonium probably support it allowing easy test of all the solutions with a constant and modern application.

Since recently, I mostly used Gelli to play my jellyfin music library and was very happy with it, then I discovered Symfonium and bought it because of the Android Auto compatibility, + I like the "random" list on 1st page which allow me to rediscover old stuff I may have forgotten.

I hate spotify so I built a Jellyfin server with my own audio files so I can stream them everywhere I go. Cleaning up all the tags was a *lot* of work. Playback using Gelli (I've also become a contributor in the process because it was the best player for Jellyfin but missing some features I would've liked) and scobbling with Pano scrobbler for Android.

Maybe Gelli would work for you.

For music playing only from a Jellyfin server, I would recommend Gelli, which features gapless and cache. It's the best music player I know for Jellyfin.

I listen to music on my phone with Gelli. This does not scrobble music either. I'm open to switching apps but finamp seems also not to support scrobbling.

Jellyfin on the server side and Gelli for the client assuming you are using Android.

Gelli (version 1.3.3): Native music player for Jellyfin

GitHub

You can just use the music player app from your android phone to connect your jellyfin. Such as gelli or finamp

You could try Jellyfin as a media server, it has various Android apps that can stream from it that work quite well. I haven't made up my mind yet which one I prefer, so I use both interchangeably: Gelli and Finamp.
