Anyone with Navidrome should consider trying this. It provides a means to create & modify the smart playlists graphically & makes it easier to rate songs with stars vs the web UI
Thanks! I need to look more into what the power implications of 8 drives is - they never spin down, so I assume they are a non-trivial portion of my power consumption.
That said, I've been considering upgrading to something recent and low power anyways. It would be a good opportunity to sneak in some useful features too,
- Maybe the possibility of transcoding a video stream
- USB3 (not a huge deal)
- Non VGA display (useful, for when connection issues arise)
- Audio jack (I could use navidrome jukebox mode!)
Which the old hardware wouldn't support without adapters, cards, etc.
I dia just find this: https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-jellyfin-authentik-duo-2fa-solution-tutorial
Which claims app compatible 2FA via authentik
- Nothing like a sonic analysis that I know of jellyfin.
- Never had issues with x265 other than for devices that don't have the computation power to decompress. Direct play to my TV with 4K streams have always been excellent.
- It could heavily limit apps, but you could use authentik/authelia to enable access to jellyfin, so external access requires MFA. Internally apps could access the local IP normally without authentik. But bouncing off authentik first would likely prevent most (all?) Apps from working externally - you'd likely only have the webui externally. Can't think of a solid solution until Jellyfin natively supports 2FA
Its a meme at this point, but I tried to install arch. Ran into display issues during install and couldn't progress. Gave up and did Ubuntu instead.
I know there's supposed to be some helper stuff out there now to make it go smoothly, but don't think I am motivated enough to retry ever.
I've only just started looking myself, but theres agora online

I realize it's not a satisfactory solution, since you won't be able to use facilities like artist/album/etc to explore.
But in navidrome I think you can make a smart playlist based on file path, which you could use to include all of YOUR songs in the playlist if it is in a different root path.
