Comment on how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?
HiTekRedNek@lemmy.world 1 week agoMy favorite use case for MASS is my desktop PC, in our bedroom, has a decent 5.1 sound system, and is running squeezelite.
I have an alarm automation that starts playing from the random 500 playlist.
When my phone connects to my car’s Bluetooth, it transfers the queue to my phone, which is running snapcast on a VPN.
When my phone disconnects from my Bluetooth, and I am at home, it transfers any queue from my phone back to my desktop.
If I’m not at home it just stops the music, otherwise it’ll start playing through the phone speakers.
While at work, I’ll use Ultrasonic rather than music assistant, because my data inside my work area is sporadic, and not conducive to a good musical experience with how MASS streams.

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

That I’m not sure of, I know MASS uses snapcast internally, and can stream to LMS/squeezelite players.
I also wouldn’t call it 100% flawless, but it works well enough for me.
