I am selfhosting Navidrome for sometimes but its lacks of support for multiple values really bugs me. Since I am having some free time, I’ve decided to write an opensubsonic server in rust (why rust? you guess). The notable features are:
- In-memory transcoding with ffmpeg c api. Faster transcoding with no ffmpeg binary required and no need for pre-configurated transcoding profile.
- Multiple values for artists/album artists/etc.
- Permission models music folder per user.
It is still actively developped and lacks some Opensubsonic features (playlist/starr) and some external integrations like lastfm. However I would like to post it get some feedback about it.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for taking the time to answer. I actually am subscribed to that thread and the upcoming new scanner that fixes that problem. Though now with your new server, you wouldn’t need to worry about that.
I truly wish you luck though. The more awesome subsonic servers around, the better. I hope your project can be just as much of a household name as Navidrome.
Thank you very much for your kind word! I’ve seen that scanner already but decided to reimplement anyway because I want to choose a different design from the start and have the flexibility to add some new features myself (some kind of ML integration like immich and S3 integration). At worse case, I will still use this so no problems :D
