Huh, interesting. I usually have full copies of my music collection where I need them (512gb microsd in my phone and on the work laptop) but it would be nice to just have a web interface if I'm at someone's house or so they can play off their phone. I think I was using subsonic until they changed all their licensing.

One UI question? Is there a reason you left off volume controls? That's something that always annoys me still about Bandcamp and I had submitted a patch to Mastodon to create a volume control for their video component.

This is a good question. On mobile, I just use phone buttons to control volume. On desktop, I just use the media keys since I don't listen to something else. But since you are not the first to ask, I can add a volume slider on large devices.

About volume control, when there is a volume control on the TV, the TV box, as well as the receiver, it feels a bit unnecessary to also have a volume control in the software.
