Ampache backend support #83

Closed HLFH closed 7 years ago

HLFH commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I would love Ampache backend support so I would be able to use audioplayer with my smartphone easily.

So, audioplayer is useless to at least 25% of the OC/NC users. I'll use Plex.

Rello commented 7 years ago

Hello @HLFH we are happy to take any knowledgeable support to develop this kind of backend. It should not be developed into AP - but as an add-on for the app. So a perfect place for several developers to contribute.

and with many thousand users, AP does not seem that useless :-)

@HLFH If Audio Player is useful for up to 75% of *cloud users, we have achieved more than we had imagined or dreamed three months ago.

I agree with @Rello. Some features that a significant minority needs should be developed as an add-on rather than as part of the app.

HLFH commented 7 years ago

@xraMsamohT @Rello I hope so. You are the perfect app to listen to music on cloud. I'm just frustrated we don't have since the beginning of cloud a fully working music app. Ok. I'm noting that AP will gratefully accept an Ampache add-on if someone of the cloud community has done it. Still, Ampache backend was one of the main features within the outdated cloud Music app. I understand your dream team has a different strategy and I accept it :) Thank you for the nice answer and have a good continuation!

Why you Guys not just using the plugin puplished over there? https://github.com/owncloud/music/releases it is an open plugin for owncloud and the far better nextcloud. This plugin is working flawlessly for me on my nextcloud server.

@michaelarlt Are you kidding? https://github.com/owncloud/music/issues/90

It has been 4 years that the ownCloud Music plugin does not work.

Hello, There is no 'just'. It required deep integration into the backend and DB tables of AP.

As mentioned: it will not happen within AP due to flexibility and maintainability.

As mentioned: it would be the perfect showcase to implement a separate and clean Ampache App which connects to AP.

if anyone with the dev knowledge could help with his own app, it would be great. Or put up a bugbounty to find one.

For AP, onlinestreams or flac are much higher valued on the roadmap....
