Mopidy Snapcast #184
Comments
thx. Both sound very nice. They do not fit into the existing categories since you do not host the music. Do you have an idea how to add them to the page? Can these services even be connected with the selfhosted servers or are they solely a wrapper for popular proprietary services? |
Snapserver can be installed on pretty much any device which makes it incredible. I use Raspberry pis. Some are attached to Home Theatre, some to USB to Hi Fi systems, some to HDMI to Hi Fi, some to MINI-AMPS all over my house. They all sync up and allow you to play perfectly synced music. You can integrate them into GROUPED rooms or play each individually, or all together etc. Really is so simple and effective. It works in conjunction with Mopidy and many other front ends (many of your listed software will work with it - hence why it needs to be included in my view). Home Assistant users integrate it with their home labs etc. Mopidy is a wrapper that wraps around many existing services like JellyFin, i think Funk Whale is in there too. It also allows you do interact with last.fm, etc. You can directly hook into your own file system with Mopidy however you have your database set up (open media vault etc). Mopidy also allows you to integrate with many online sources including the Spotify API - so you have access to pretty much everything you can imagine (including online radio etc). Mopidy will also allow a direct "pipe" to snapcast - so whatever you are listening too (your own hosted music, spotify, etc) will play directly to snapcast. I personally just use Spotify which will "find" the snap server and play. Go check it out - its great. |
Both of these need to be represented on this page. They probably deserve their own section.
Snapcast is probably the best multi-room self hosted sync software available and essential.
Mopidy is the most powerful platform as well.
