strawberry VS beets

Assuming you mean the pre-2.0 Amarok, you might be interested in Strawberry: https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/

It's a a fork of a fork of the old Amarok, supporting more features and modern support while retaining the original UI.

Strawberrry (https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/) is the fork, but I don't think it will do everything you want as far as plugins go. I would also like something that is Clementine but not 7 years out of date.

That doesn't always work on a Mac, so you might want to grab it's forked project, Strawberry (this is what I use on my Mac) -> https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org

If you use Clementine, I highly recommend Strawberry, it's a fork of Clementine which is updated more often, has a lot of bugfixes and QoL that I enjoy.

Strawberry for listening to audio files.

Winamp! Yes, it's a stupid option that wastes battery life, but I'm quite happy running my trusty old Winamp through Parallels. Been using it forever, and see no reason to switch. I've tried a bunch of MacOS native apps, but have never really been happy with them in the past. Strawberry shows promise though. I've had my eye on that one. I might give it another try: https://www.strawberrymusicplayer.org/

I use navidrome[1], its a music streaming server you can selfhost and then use a player that supports the subsonic api for playback. I use the strawberry music player on my desktop and substreamer[2] on android. Navidrome can also scrobble your music to last.fm if you tell it to.

I was always frustrated that there is no solid source for synced lyrics that also offers decent API support. There is good ol' Crintsoft's MiniLyrics that is thankfully free software, was what I used a lot in my childhood, but unfortunately the API is highly obfuscated. Another popular choice is the Musixmatch API, which has a very large database of synced lyrics, but with "free" API that are reverse-engineered from their app, you will quickly run into rate-limit.

That's why I created LRCLIB. It's aimed to provide completely free synchronized lyrics for everyone, especially for FOSS music players, with zero profit intention. It currently has nearly 3,000,000 (not deduplicated) lyrics in database. You can also contribute to the database by adding and syncing lyrics for your favorite songs using the LRCGET client.

I'm trying my best to make LRCLIB server-side code open-source as soon as possible. But right now, full LRCLIB's database dumps have already been uploaded regularly and publicly, which are simply sqlite3 files. Feel free to download, look at or do anything you want with the database at https://lrclib.net/db-dumps.

Many open-source projects have already begun integrating LRCLIB, including:

- beets - music library metadata management (https://github.com/beetbox/beets)

I just ssh onto my server and use beets to remotely organize my navidrome collection and edit metadata. Beets has lots of auto-tagging features and I rarely need to edit anything manually. Works great if you are ok with using the command line.

You could try https://github.com/beetbox/beets but it seemed very manual and extremely slow. I had better luck with Picard.

Honestly? I use https://beets.io/ to organise all my FLAC on my NAS.

I expose the /Music directory over NFC.

I use https://kodi.tv/ to stream music to my amp. I manually pick the album I want to listen to.

Kodi also has a fairly reasonable web UI.

Keep it simple.

If you're technically inclined, there's beets.

You should check out beets.

Yes, you have the torrent client call beets.io on the folder and have beets configured.
