i prefer to say i ddg’ed it on kagi but to each their own :D

ah good to know, will try this then - thanks!

wouldn’t trust that tbh

Oh there are tools to download from spotify directly ;) They pretend to be a player, download the songs into the offline cache and decrypt them using your login credentials.

I can DM them if you’re interested. It’s interesting because yt music premium still only givey you 256kbit/s but spotify premium goes up to 320kbit/s

Okay so this is for subsonic, well subsonic is a paid service so i’m not really in favor of that :D But this would check two of my three points. I tried their demo but didn’t find anything for “instant mix / song radio” do you know if it has something like that?

yeah nothing beats audiobookshelf imho^^ never tried jelly for that to begin with.

Well appears as if i just stay with jellyfin for music and try to just forget that instant mixes exist :D

The clients i use all can use getSimilarSongs API so worth a shot i guess… depends on how good navidrome handles that because jellyfin surely sucks at it :D

I love jellyfin with all my heart. It’s an amazing application but it’s really really barebones when it comes to music sadly.

For my mobile player i use symfonium and it’s awesome.

I’d really love to use navidrome but those spotify playlist’s are really important to me lol. Spent a few good years of curating into them and i’d would be way too much work to rebuild them by hand. Also expanding on those playlists is super comfortable with spotify, downloading the playlist and just syncing it.

Do you use the “instant mix” “song radio” of navidrome? (does it even have one?) and if yes, how do like it?

you’re welcome!

to be fair, it’s more of a gimmick when using it in your home. I have a notebook that i use to test out new distros on and i can hook it up to my LAN and quickly install something without whipping out the USB stick.

Also the mini gaming pc hooked to my TV is a victim of being reinstalled every couple months after i tinker around too much.

It’s a 64GB stick and i manually keep it in sync with my netbootxyz instance

Looking at my Ventoy stick i have multiple folders for different OS:

Arch_Based:

• CachyOS
• Garuda

Debian_Based:

• Debian Bookworm
• Mint
• Zorin OS

Fedora_Based:

• Fedora Silverblue
• Nobara

GamingBox

• Bazzite
• ChimeraOS

ServerOS:

• Ubuntu Server
• TrueNAS Scale

Windows:

• Tiny10
• Tiny11

Tools:

• Avira Rescue System
• SuperGrub2
• UBCD

We should give you some honorary title for that

Havent found a good solution for me aswell.

I used to use spotify and let it create similar playlists to what I already had but ofc they killed that feature in favor of their useless smart shuffle…

Its said in the very first sentence though?

This isn’t really the right place to ask this. You’d be better off in some networking community

You should mabye open a [W] Post on that community where i crossposted it from. Maybe someone reacts there.

Sonarr / Radarr move the files out of the finished downloads folder into the respective media folder.

If they don’t have the right permission for that you should check your setup. Everything in my guides run with user 1000 and they should all have permissions to move each others files around.

Regarding your second question: I don’t quite understand what you mean here? Imo Jellyfin doesn’t have to be in a VPN. It doesn’t do anything in the grey area. If you plan to stream media FROM jellyfin over the internet to some other PC. You should at the very least configure proper SSL or let it go through the VPN.

Sonarr & Radarr should be in your VPN computer.

No, an invite is just so you can register. You still have to pay for most indexers. Or atleast you have to pay if you want to use their API access; And that’s what you’d do if you use *Arr

I don’t think they are less popular.

But their whole system works different. There is not a single file there that’s called Inception.h265.HDR.mkv for example

Its all just billions of g24hg54j2k7j6nb2n1n5b5j files with absolute gibberish as content. So you need the nzb files to actually get stuff out of it.

But the nzb files also don’t hold any copyright infringing material in and of itself.

So copyright holders have to fight two thing at once
