I fixed my ports and switched the image that Schizo mentioned and now it works thanks for informing me I am new to this.

OK never mind… Just went back to it with the changed ports that catloaf (no idea if I can @ people here to be honest…) mentioned and it now works :)

I tried that one first but had same issue.

Oh thanks and thanks for link. Didn’t really solve it though but good to know

Lidarr might do it but I no longer run it as it didn’t really work well for me but I have not touched it in over a year. Also music torrents are very rare from my experience. I recently heard about “lidar on steroids” but have yet to fully look into it.

Edit: it looks the it has been updated to have a UI now so maybe it does read albums

Saw this and set it up. Hopefully it will grow and get better as a tracker the worst part about self hosting music is most of the time the music data is pulled from musicbrainz but new music or lesser known artists are never there I end up adding most of the music I listen to to there database.

Edit: does not seem to work as anticipated it does not read albums you have only artists and is now telling me every album I that has released this year from the artists I have. Still interesting and will follow this project closely. Maybe I missed a release lol.

I switched to EOS Endeavour OS. I don’t think it has data collection

just found out there is an “Experimental” setting for it to “Try to embed the lyrics to the track files when possible” setting have not tried it myself

I might not understand the whole thing but how did Google lose when apple won. Is Google ecosystem not more open and allows side loading of apps. I have many apps not from Google Play store on my android.

Yes agreed I have been looking for a new search engine I was using something like 4get or something but it wanted me to do a captcha every day.

They have not been working for me as of late have not tried in a couple days though.

Yea I have thought of bundling my downloads from them and making a torrent for them but have yet to do that also not sure how but cant be hard to figure out.

This has been my only solution. I did find out if you do artist name and album name it returns all songs in album so that helped. Still really tedious compared to getting a torrent.

Could be completely wrong as I have no idea where i remember hearing this but for Netflix apparently there drm is different than others so there 4k rips are much less common. Again take with a grain of salt. But I also noticed a lack of 4k shows as well.

Yes a debloater would be helpful probably. Just disappointing as part of the reason I went with the pixel was this option but now it’s not one.

I even ran into this in college they communicated hours for everything etc via Instagram so I pretty much relied on friends to then relay that information to me. Very annoying.

Since your comment is recent. Do you know if I do this does it void insurance on the phone if I break it beyond repair. EX drop a weight on it (from experience). I read it voids warrentys but what about insurance? And if you do it to a phone and return/trade in that phone going from p6 to p8 is that acceptable. If you dont know all is well thanks

Never liked Android auto anyway :) was always annoying for me.

Been using Plexamp for a little over a month by myself only complaint is meta data is sometimes not the best but that might be my choice of music as well. Also still missing some features I would like to see.

I am new to the music game but I still use the “discovery weeky” on Spotify and go from there as I used to use Spotify so it knows what I like. I just listen to it once or twice a week to see if I like any of it.
