I was hoping to go all in with Jellyfin, but it’s been absolutely maddening to try to get it to play nice with my curated library. It just makes too many dumb assumptions about artist metadata.
Any other suggestions?
EDIT: I installed Navidrome, then poured over the documentation for the config file and micromanaged every setting. This has allowed me to get damn near close to the exact unobtrusive behavior I had hoped for.
EDIT 2: AFA mobile client goes, I’d absolutely consider paying for Symphonium, if it didn’t seem to require my having a Google Play account (fuck that). So instead I’m trying Tempo.
As a musicbrainz editor, don’t depend entirely on Picard and musicbrainz for correct tagging either cause shit isn’t as well curated as you think.
I’m in the habit of manually cross-referencing Discogs for every album I run through Picard, often making alterations if need be. I’ve also spent a lot of time configuring and scripting the shit out of the tool to get a pretty immaculate collection.
If you’re putting in that much work, please submit those edits to musicbrainz! We need all the help we can get 😭
