#22If you’re willing to pay for proprietary software, I’ve been incredibly happy with Roon for music organization. Handles 99% of albums I add without an issue, great multi-room support, best suggestions of any existing service (Rest in peace Google Play Music). They added remote streaming a few years ago and it’s all I use now.
Note that it is a $12.49 subscription, or $829.99 one-time. So you really need to love its featureset.

#24Never crossed my mind to self host my own music streaming server, great idea!
Music is straightforward to self-host. Go for it!
Video can be a bit harder if you have to transcode.

#25I tried this (among a bunch of others) about a year ago and landed on Gonic[1] for the server and Supersonic[2] on PC and Amperfy[3] on mobile. Yes it's a few different tools to maintain (plus beets etc), but it's the ideal set of features etc for me.

If you haven't seen it, discogs releases a huge dataset for free that I feel like is ripe for powering a cool music recommendation engine

I currently host icecast/ices. Does your above options allow multiple clients to listen to same stream. I see it mention jukebox mode.

#27I'm currently using icecast and ices to host a music stream. It'll effectively stream music to a port, and multiple clients can enjoy.
Anyone doing something similar, I'd like to migrate to something more modern.

#29I'd love to find something that works effectively at randomly streaming my music video collection, esp out as an rtsp stream. Kodi's music video support has a tendency to choke and has some weird deficiencies in how it handles them, such as audio leveling.

#30There's also owntone, formerly forked-daapd. It implements DAAP, which is what iTunes/Apple Music uses.
Works with Rhythmbox, at least. IDK if there is a compatible Android client.
