[Garmin Venu 3] Subsonic Premium mandatory ? #96

Closed shad-lp closed 4 months ago

shad-lp commented 4 months ago

Hello,

Firstly thanks for your hard, much appreciated. Recently, I spinned up a Subsonic feature through docker, was working wonderfully until I get a Subsonic error code 60 on sync :

https://www.subsonic.org/pages/api.jsp

The trial period for the Subsonic server is over. Please upgrade to Subsonic Premium. Visit subsonic.org for details

Confirmed if I try to fetch playlists :

PXL_20240713_173735018

Maybe I'm missing where it is specified, but I didn't understand that Subsonic Premium was needed for your app.

Should I switch to a Subsonic API alternative ?

Subsonic premium is not required for SubMusic to work as far as I know. I suspect the docker image requires you to have subsonic premium?

You can use the available alternatives for subsonic (e.g. Airsonic-advanced or nextcloud+music) or use Ampache with the Ampache API. That API is much better and allows for larger playlists.

If you happen to need a cloud storage alternative as well, I could recommend Nextcloud with the Music app. It supports Ampache API as well as Subsonic API (would recommend Ampache).

Lastly, there is also SubMusic for Plex which you can use with the Plex Media Server. It is the easiest to install and setup, but SubMusic for Plex is a paid app.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your fast answer. Actually I'm using this image, the only one that is frequently maintained : https://hub.docker.com/r/stuckj/subsonic

I'll give a look at your suggestions. On the media server side, I'm using Emby, btw I've commented on your feature request concerning the Emby implementation.

Closed the issue, as it is not really an issue with regards to the SubMusic repository. You are free to discuss here further or send me a personal message (see Contact Developer option on the Garmin Connect app store).

Just for those who would face the same problem, Ampache does the job perfectly.
