Comment on Music Library Management
hellmo_luciferrari@lemmy.zip 3 days agoI have gone in so many different directions. When I was on Windows I would use MusicBee or MediaMonkey for tagging, I would do it album by album. It was pretty great, but I haven’t used Windows in years. There are not any Media players that are for local files that I even like for Linux.
So, I ultimately moved to Navidrome. Have lost some of my tunes, but was at 50k at one point. I am back down to about 23k.
Beets seems pretty neat so far, automatic is my goal!

Navidrome looks like good stuff. If I ever move off of Plex, I’ll absolutely be looking at it. I’m running macOS, but my goal is to buy a gently used Windows PC from a business or something (like they couldn’t upgrade it to Windows 11 or whatever’s after that) and replace Windows with Linux, and use it as a server. My Mac (M2 Pro, 16GB RAM) is more than enough machine to run multiple servers, but I’d rather do that with a dedicated machine running some *nix that I can terminal into from the Mac. Navidrome does run on macOS with minor tweaking that is not above my skill level, but when I set up the server I’ll be looking real hard at alternatives.
