I have a great music library on my homelab, but I hardly ever listen to it because I mostly listen to music on my TV.
I occasionally use the Jellyfin app, which is the best player I’ve found for TV, but it is not really built for audio and is cumbersome for searching, on-the-fly playlist, and continuous play.
Other apps I’ve tried are either worse in terms of features, or an absolute labyrinth to navigate with a remote. Most apps are designed for mobile and are somewhat to completely broken on TV, if they run at all.
I don’t mind if the app is not free as long as it works well enough for my family to use it, and it connects to the server. I don’t mind migrating my library to another service to get it working well on the TV.
Has anyone found an actually good Android TV app for hosted music?
Symfonium is really great, but the TV version doesn’t quite work —or didn’t as of my testing probably a year ago.
I have also stopped using GMS, which makes using paid apps more difficult.
One thing that I really enjoyed was the Android Auto mode, which was flawless.
