  • Glad to hear!

    Depending on which version of Tempo you switched it, most things would be the same as I had forked it at 3.9 and started my releases at 3.10 I love listenbrainz! Playlists still need work. the only format I've seen consistent issues is wma (i know i have some old files I had to replace)

  • hi @flightyhobler@lemmy.world the degoogled version does not work with android auto - you need the github version with the google stuff

  • Hi Sips, The playlists don't show up by default when you select that flag - (this is confusing i know) But you have to go to the playlist -select the option to ADD TO HOME, Then it will show up on your home if that part is enabled.

    There are issues with playlists in general and inparticular with the home location, if you see the issues there are some open ones intend to get to soon but there is a playlist revamp that is needed so there is that.

  • It's not out of the question, there are a lot of requests for android auto in the repo, I just can't get to them yet with any confidence until I can test.

    Some ideas are good, but I will use the safety rules as a hard guidance once I do get to it.

    I did get to use auto while on holiday and it was sweet. I can see wanting more control but also feel too much can be a bit dangerous, might as well be looking at my phone while driving which is bad lol.

  • I need a dev environment to even see the changes I make actually make it there. There is a flag to enable the 5 star rating on the main screen, it's off by default. Have you tried that? I am not sure if that transfers to auto (i don't think it does)

    As far as the safety thing, I have to read the docs -> I believe there are guidelines and if it fails them, they block the whole app. So I want to keep it simple until I understand the requirements.

  • ✌️

  • 🙌

  • I'm still working on setting up an android auto dev environment. It's been a challenging however I've made progress so I may have it up soon.

    That being said, I've been told I need to make sure I pass the safety test/guidance to get into the google play store.

  • Thanks, Not particularly. I've already have a bug where something broken between updates I'm tracking down but feel free to open a ticket if you find something that is not already a open issue.

  • return of the clippy, now named skynet.

  • Thanks! I will check this out. Not sure why but every time I searched I kept getting android automotive.

  • Sweet, how big is your library? It does seem large libraries are a challenge all around.

  • Try it, I'd be curious to see what happens? The release before has a debug version if you want to grab the logs.

  • Fantastic! I just added the heart/like feature there as well and wasn't sure if showed up on android auto.

    Need to figure out how to get a test environment for that.

  • Hi @Andres4NY@social.ridetrans.it I unfortunately don't have access to that repo so I can't update it there (fdroid) - I have had a chat with the izzyDroid dev and he gave me some tips on what I need to do to get it into his repo and thus fdroid - I am working towards it but I could use some help because I'm figuring this java android app stuff as I go. But I will post here when I do, it will be a new name and a new icon, same app. ;-)

  • That's an old version from last year. If you get the latest from github you should have android support, given the caveat that you have to make the adjustments for an unknown app (check out the docs)

    The other thing that might hang you up is if you use graphene OS. The degoogled version lacks auto support.

  • Yeah, I'm not sure. I know a few people who run their servers behind a reverse proxy. I don't think the app cares as long as the response is correct and endpoints exposed properly.

    I know there is a PR for basic auth that I have not yet rolled in because I need to test it but perhaps you can test this out and let me know?

  • As others suggested, a simple server with a subsonic api is all you need. tailscale on it and your mobile device and you can stream with a handful of open source apps.

    I am using a pi to server my music for years but been self hosting my music since google music died - never got on the spotify bandwagon.

    A little docker/podman is all you need. I also work on an free android app for this purpose as well that I just posted an update to yesterday.

  • same here, i didn't want to see it die!
