Hi!
I have a subsonic instance running but I rarely listen to Albums. Stuff I really like are DJ performances like by the channel The Moment.
So I thought: why not download and self-host them before Google makes Youtube sign-in only, (like Elon and Facebook did).
That stuff is probably quite hard to organize. But the type of music simply breaks the common services, like Jellyfin, or Subsonic.
I know of funkwhale. But I’d like to keep the contents private. I just wanna listen to music at work (so being open to the web is a plus). I thought funkwhale is a bit too… “social” for me. I’m a (re)uploader, not creator.
You got any ideas? Maybe a youtube-cloner with audio-only support? (I know how to download videos already)
Edit: Of course, I’d download the sets legally, e.g. from their patreon discord, or whatever. ;)
Also: I know that restricting it to my VPN would be ideal for security and legality reasons. But that’s a bit inconvenient. And I want to check my options.
Do you need a web player? I’ve got several years of a radio show on my web server and wrote a script that created an RSS feed for them. This way I can open that in any podcast player (even web based ones) to listen to it.
DO NOT use funkwhale unless you want a headache.
Jellyfin should be fine. Why do you say it breaks it?
Jellyfin catalogues songs on albums by artists. DJ sets are a different category of music track.
mstream maybe? I use it from my job, and it is hosted from my house
Don’t know that one. Seems like a good lead. Thanks for showing me the way in the rabbit hole. ;)
Maybe navidrome too?
That’s what I meant uith “subsonic”, lol. Doesn’t this have the same catalogueing problem as jellyfin?
You could just use a local NFO for artist/album with jellyfin, thats what I do for everything from stuff friends have made to home movies and fanedits.
