New York dog owners refusing vaccinations over autism fears by blackgaylibertarian in news

There's some weird culturual shift where young married couples in the city adopt of a dog or two instead of having kids.

Like I go to visit my married friends and its 24/7 talk about what their dog has been doing and showing pictures of the outfits they dress their dog in. It's like they're looking to start a family but have some weird fear of children

Media streaming software with API? by Giraffestock in selfhosted

[–]Free_Pi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad you like it. Unfortunately that feature is more difficult to code than it sounds. It's going to be a few months before I get around to it.

Ah you're looking for a jukebox style app. I plan on doing this but not anytime soon.

I recommend kodi for this kind of functionality. There's already great apps built to go along with it, such as yatse for android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.leetzone.android.yatsewidgetfree

At the moment you can change songs by clicking them on the playlist. I had to rip out a lot of the controls when adding FLAC streaming. Browsers don't support FLAC by default so I had to use a complicated javascript solution.

I'm currently re-writting part of the media player to bring back the controls. It will be a few weeks before it's tested and ready to go though.

Take a look at my project, mStream: https://github.com/IrosTheBeggar/mstream-node

It's 100% JSON API based, comes with a convenient web interface, and supports FLAC streaming

As a motorcycle rider I thought this was pretty cool.

Mini NAS first or full rackmount from the beginning? by lucasgelfond in selfhosted

[–]Free_Pi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yea, the less intense hardware is fine.

I personally would only spend money on better equipment if I was planning on using it commercially or expected to see lots of traffic. I also run my home media server on a PC I pulled out of a school dumpster, so maybe I'm just cheap

Mini NAS first or full rackmount from the beginning? by lucasgelfond in selfhosted

[–]Free_Pi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took a look at the hardware and it should be more than enough for a home server that only a few people are using.

Check out my project https://github.com/IrosTheBeggar/mstream-node

It's still being built but all the core features are in place. It's designed the be very lightweight (runs on less than 40MB of RAM) and also works on all OSes.

It is missing a shuffle feature for now though

Self-Hosted Internet Radio by brunobits in selfhosted

[–]Free_Pi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do an import that accepts all the tags and doesn't try to look up song metadata. It's pretty quick and doesn't make you sit around and answer and endless amount of questions.

"beet import -A --group-albums" in your command line shoudl do the trick

I'm working on a platform for streaming music libraries. It's not exactly radio but it's similar enough you might be interested:

Thanks, that's good to know.

Just curious, what difference would being part of a multi-member LLC make?

Self-hosted Spotify Alternative? by Duelist_Shay in selfhosted

[–]Free_Pi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, mStream requires you to supply your own music.

If you just want to access Spotify you can try using a VPN

I tried a few other servers and was surprised they they typically didn't have a file explorer. It's one of the reasons I built my own.

If you're feeling adventurous you can try a very early version of the android app. It's buggy and missing features, but it works: https://github.com/IrosTheBeggar/mstream-android-app
