i guess i hope so!

I’m hesitant to ask because I’m running pangolin also, but why are there downvotes here? did i miss something about pangolin?

i settled on gonic via docker, for now, with jukebox mode controlled from dsub2000, as the device I’m using as the server is an old autonomic mms2a running debian. (not enough horsepower to run a full DE so it needs to be remotely controllable)

i just about drove myself crazy trying every single version of any subsonic related server and client, jellyfin (still running) ampache, mopidy with plugins, addons for kodi, various MPD iterations and control points, including trying to drive it from home assistant.

i am not sure if I’m completely happy with my setup, but with vpn, i can listen on the phone anywhere, make playlists that are immediately visible on the machine that can play to my speakers in the house (driven off of a matrixing amplifier)

i am giving my brain a rest before i try to look into snapcast

i just got my music server going recently, let me see that i had like 19 thousand songs!

Abso lutely

my favorite of his was dbz-like fights when driving through the big city! over the buildings and stuff

damn. got they ass

mpd has broke me a couple times lol

unknown mortal orchestra. great for cooking or cleaning

yeah i was a little grossed out last night when i saw that. so fuck em. iron fox?

star wars star wars, cool cool cool. you understand.

fedora coo. i coo fedor

I’ve seen this a couple times but haven’t looked into it until now! do you play with this?

i linked those together and will be testing further! i wonder what it offers over the regular smb share

tempo is slick!

that was a big choke point for me for a while also!

i keep this in my linkwarden!

KDE connect was an absolute divine discovery when i ran across it!

oh lawd i am glad to meet another out in the wild!

i was fortunate to start with residential alarm and A/V. due to a talent vacuum, leapfrogged to control system programmer/service, which allowed a few forks in the road (service manager, project manager and sales,) before bringing me back to my primary passion in this industry, AV programming and design.

but yeah I’ve installed my fair share of alarm panels, access control, thousands of camera systems.

but most of my shit has been fixing old rich people’s wifi and kids/grandkids AV

holy shit this is the kind of stuff that piques my interest! Flawless location hopping eh? is this descended from the old Logitech platform? will CERTAINLY look into this

people speak highly of this one. I’ll have to do a little research

when i first saw and played with music assistant i was absolutely amazed for a bit. the ability to sling tunes to any device that can be seen on the network with all metadata available on a home assistant (adjacent) dashboard? sign me up! i was thrilled at the audiobook/podcast support as well. able to tie in tidal and local music with announcement capabilities… just awesome!

i can’t remember the exact reason why but it didn’t quite work perfectly for me, as far as “checking all the boxes”

the companion app wasn’t quite designed to be a music source and would stop playing if screen was locked for a few seconds? on webpage it is like, constantly spamming KDE connect to continue playing, even when sending to another device.

i am following music assistant for sure though!
