I am selfhosting Navidrome for sometimes but its lacks of support for multiple values really bugs me. Since I am having some free time, I’ve decided to write an opensubsonic server in rust (why rust? you guess). The notable features are:

  • In-memory transcoding with ffmpeg c api. Faster transcoding with no ffmpeg binary required and no need for pre-configurated transcoding profile.
  • Multiple values for artists/album artists/etc.
  • Permission models music folder per user.

It is still actively developped and lacks some Opensubsonic features (playlist/starr) and some external integrations like lastfm. However I would like to post it get some feedback about it.

Thank you very much!

            I see. Indeen I gave up teaching people pronounce my name correctly long time ago and told them just to call me by my family name so you coulld pronounce whatever you like. If you know a Vietnamese guy around just ask them to teach you and give them a headache

              I’m sad that you didn’t take me serious. I looked into the repo got interested and started with the first obvious question. I couldn’t have known that that’s your name. And even now, I still don’t know how to pronounciate it.

                Sorry to make you feel that way. You are the first commenter and the first star on github so I am really appreciate it. “Nghe” could be decompose into two parts: “ngh” and “e”. The “e” part sound like “eh” but the “ngh” part is just “difficulty level: asian” so I put a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttA8ukm8lwI (“ngh” and “ng” have the same pronounciation). Thank you very much!

    This sounds like a cool thing. Will it run on FreeBSD? If unknown, I will likely try and find out this weekend.

      Here you go. But setting up a testing environment on github actions is too hard so it is built only for now.

      Edit: test is added now

    This is really cool.

    One thing that I find really helpful is when authors put a sample docker-compose.yml in their repository and link to it from the readme.md. Helps with the initial lift of getting started.

      In the opensubsonic response there will be two fields for artist, one is artistid with only one artist (this is for compatible with old subsonic) and the other is artists with a list of artist ids. The server only sends back the list of artists ids and only these two clients read that field.
