This is madness but it is GLORIOUS madness!

Chaphasilor ,

I happen to be in France this summer :P

But I should probably get my backup server set up before that...
Hope you have fun with those drives!

Chaphasilor ,

"IP" in this context would be "intellectual property"

Chaphasilor ,

You don't have to change the database location.

Untwine - the pattern-matching parsing library capable of a 12 line JSON parser with pretty errors ( github.com )

Been working on this a few months. It's inspired by previous generations of parser generators, and by my own previous work generating ast lexers from grammar files. This integrates seamlessly with the type system, allowing you to declare your syntax, extract only the data you want as variables, and evaluate them easily. And just...

Chaphasilor ,

So what, I can write a parser in JavaScript in a single line
\s

Jokes aside, that does look neat and like a really clever solution that is very fammiliar right from the start!

Chaphasilor ,

Okay, nice! But now the question is: Does this work with Lidarr on Steroids, so that it can use deemix for both metadata and downloading? ^^

Chaphasilor ,

afaik they are planning on adding federation support eventually, which would be really neat for collaboration

Chaphasilor ,

Happy watching

Why do you always forget about us music/books/etc. lovers? :(

Looking forward to the update! I'll see if I can open a few bug reports...

Chaphasilor ,

...right :p

Tempo – An open source music client for Subsonic built natively for Android, with Android Auto support and synchronized lyrics and it's available on F-Droid ( github.com )

Hello community, today I want to present to you the work done on Tempo in recent months. This new version brings improvements to Android Auto, a first use of the OpenSubsonic API, synchronized song lyrics and the ability to customize the home screen....

Chaphasilor ,

It will have support before Jellyfin 10.9 is officially released. I'll be working on that feature myself! :D

Chaphasilor ,

So, have you tried it already? :D

Chaphasilor ,

Nice! And how do you like it? Anything that's missing or not working for you? :)

Chaphasilor ,

That's great to hear! Just make sure you have all the lyrics set up in Jellyfin before you start the road trip, Finamp only fetches from the server and not from any other websites :)

There will probably come some changes to the lyrics interaction, I'm also not a fan of the current setup. Toggling between lyrics or the cover seems doable.

Customizations for the lyrics, like hiding the timestamp and centering, is definitely planned. Maybe I can even fit it into the next update!

And yes, I'm the current maintainer of Finamp, since the original creator is currently busy with uni. They're still around though, and there also are some awesome contributors helping out with a ton of stuff!

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out. I'll try to reply in less than two days xD

Chaphasilor ,

Hmm, my goal with the app is to not require an external documentation, I'd like to make it straight-forward enough to use as it is.

The only thing we really need would be developer documentation, but I'm not sure if you can help with that, especially since you don't know the codebase.

If you can think of something else to contribute, or if you want to add a basic GitHub wiki for the most common functionality and issues, I'm happy to discuss things further!

Chaphasilor ,

Used immich-go for this too. Had no problems, and the dev is really open to feedback. All the metadata was there (except for labeled persons), and albums were also created correctly. It even inported archived photos into Immich's archive!

Chaphasilor ,

I'm a bit confused by your question about Jellyfin in a Nextcloud post, but whatever xD

There's is no way to install a specific version of an app on Scale, you can only install the latest version. That applies to both the official charts as well as TrueCharts. You can however refuse to update to newer versions if you feel like it.
Keep in mind that if you decide to update later on, you can only update to the current latest version again.

Alternatively, you can set up the app "manually", by going to "Discover apps" and then clicking the "Custom app" button. That allows you to use any docker image with any tag that you want. I've used it to set up an unstable/beta version of Jellyfin, and some more test servers.

I think there's also a docker-compose app for TrueCharts that lets you point to a compose test file using host path, but that is not needed for Jellyfin.

Let me know if you have more questions!

Chaphasilor ,

VPN, Tailscale Funnel or Cloudflare Tunnel? ZeroTier should also work.

In what way does Jellyfin stop working? Does it not start at all?

Chaphasilor ,

You don't need to use it as an exit node. But yes, running tailscale in a container can be problematic for accessing some apps. You should give this thread a read: https://github.com/truenas/charts/issues/2201

It offers some explanations on what might be going on. I have tailscale set up on a different device (raspberry pi), and it's working as a "subnet router", meaning I can access all of my local subnet when I'm connected.

Chaphasilor ,

1.100

They want to make things stable this year, but probably not that soon

Chaphasilor ,

There's mobile sync for music, not sure if that helps ^^

Chaphasilor ,

Sony seems to not be willing to accept a Jellyfin client. It's not that the devs don't want to support the PS5, Sony is blocking it...

Chaphasilor ,

Absolutely not! There are a many features in 10.9, check out the "release-highlight" PRs on the repo: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pulls?q=is%3Apr+label%3Arelease-highlight+

That is only a part of the changes, there are some more UI changes to the dashboard, many bug fixes, and performance improvements.

Chaphasilor ,

They strictly use the donations to cover their infrastructure cost (website, docs, metadata API fees). They don't use donations to fund development, to avoid becoming for-profit at all cost.
And since they are currently sitting at ~$20k that they have yet to spend, they aren't pushing the donation options at all.

What they much rather need is actual contributors, that can help with development.

Chaphasilor ,

Hi, Finamp dev here. I think there might be a "limit 100" on accident in there somewhere, since that is our default "page size", so the number of items we will fetch from the server at once.
If you don't mind, you could open an issue on GitHub or hop into the discord server so I can better keep track of it!

Chaphasilor , (edited )

Yeah ideally Flutter (the framework we're using to develop the app) would support this by default, but it seems like we'll have to jerryrig something...

Chaphasilor ,

I mean as far as I know it is possible to browse the folders directly in Jellyfin, at least using the web app. There was an option for it in the settings I think. But implementing that for Finamp might be a bit harder, sorry

Chaphasilor ,

There is an open discussion on GitHub for people just like you ^^

But discord is just much less work to manage, and is a communications platform that I use all the time.
This is just the beta, it's not like all of the development and discussionn is happening over discord now. But when I have time to develop and need some user feedback to ask about their problems or opinions, this is just much faster to iterate on.

In the end, we do this for free, and it takes up our time, so anything we can do to be more productive does help!

Chaphasilor ,

Interesting. Yeah Jellyfin's inner workings are complicated and strange...

Chaphasilor ,

Thanks! :D

Chaphasilor ,

Hey, is this still an issue in the beta? There are reports from others that have problems with their large playlists because it takes too long to queue them up, so I don't think the shuffle is limited to a certain number of items.
Or are you talking about the round shuffle button on the songs/tracks tab?

Chaphasilor ,

Finamp works on iOS. We just launched a beta on TestFlight. It still has a long way to go, but all the important features should be there!

Take a look: https://github.com/jmshrv/finamp

Foss local music player with google assistant support?

I recently passed my driving test and I need a music app that plays local files and can be controlled by google assistant for handsfree. I've been using AIMP for ages and its worked great but I can't specify any songs or playlists via the assistant, I can only tell it to "play music on AIMP" and it plays whatever I was playing...

Chaphasilor ,

I think GA support + FOSS will be hard to find. That's often a feature for paid apps, but too niche for foss
