Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that

  all the jellyfin music clients have weird glitches with band names and metadata. this has been with almost every (android) jellyfin client on 3 different Jellyfin servers over the years

  i was almost completely sold on Jellyfin being my music server but it wasn’t quite ready for me, or possibly there is something about my library it doesn’t like.

    What?
    Just have your files properly tagged by picard/lidarr.
    Improper tags = Weird behaviour you caused.

  i‘ve first used jellyfin for movies and series for a while and then decided i also wanted to add music streaming to my nas, so i put it into jellyfin. there were a couple of things that bugged me though, and so i also installed navidrome. jellyfin and navidrome have access to the same directory with all the music i own, and i have both finamp as well as amperfy on my iphone, and i really quite prefer navidrome with amperfy. so i would say that if you already got jellyfin for movies/ series and you don’t need a lot for a music streaming platform, it’s perfectly fine. however, if you need some more music streaming specific stuff, like a nice workflow for creating playlists, you may prefer to add navidrome.

  Jellyfin sucks for music. I tried it several times, hoping it got better, but unfortunately it’s not the case. For the moment I’m still using Navidrome (which I used for the last 3-4 years without problems).

    To each their own I guess (which is the point after all :) ). I’ve never had an issue with Jellyfin for music in the few years I’ve used it. All setups are different though.
