Comment on High Quality Offline Music - マリウス

I really want to do this, but I have yet to find a self-hosted app that has the features from iTunes that I love: smart playlists (with an easy to edit interface), play stats (last played, last skipped, play counts skip count), and editable metadata (can change genres of the a song or several songs within the app).

Easily editable smart playlists would be table stakes for me. I can get by without the rest, though I’d be less happy than with iTunes.

I use Plexamp and the smart playlists are pretty great on that.

  Offline mode is so bad it’s unusable

    I’ve not experienced that. I usually rely on a single offline playlist on shuffle whenever I do lose internet, but that has been the status quo for me for some time

Plex has almost all of that.

It’s only missing last skipped and skip count and you’ll need to use the desktop/web app for editing of metadata.

I have found that navidrome (uses subsonic as a base API ) covers a bunch of these. It has a web app to interact with it but because it uses subsonic it can work with any subsonic music app. Navidrome also has smart playlist support but no current UI (supposed to be on the way) to set it up so of you’re comfortable with file editing via terminal you’ll probably be fine

Mobile I use symfonium which does have smart playlist support which you configure yourself. It can get quite involved depends on how “smart” you want to get. But it’s an offline first app. So will cache songs to your phone to play them. Any ratings or favourites or playlists you make can get pushed back to navidrome via subsonic to your server. It also has android auto support which was a Biggie for me. Only downside is it costs £5 but it’s a one off payment not a subscription. Worth the cost in my mind.

For desktop I like to use a foss app called feishin, just prefer the UI to navidrome
