  A web based audio/video streaming application and file manager allowing you to access your music & videos from anywhere, using almost any internet enabled device.

  

I'm not sure if this would fit all your needs aside from running on Linux but Ampache [1][2] has been around for a very long time and has the ability to mesh with other instances. It started as a small project run by some students at OSU and evolved over time.

• Kodi Home Theater Software

  Kodi is an award-winning free and open source home theater/media center software and entertainment hub for digital media. With its beautiful interface and powerful skinning engine, it's available for Android, BSD, Linux, macOS, iOS, tvOS and Windows.

  

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.

  Create automatic playlists by using Deep Learning to *listen* to the music.

For automatic playlists that make at least some sense I used https://github.com/teticio/Deej-AI in the past, is not human-level good but the results are enjoyable.
