That I’m not sure of, I know MASS uses snapcast internally, and can stream to LMS/squeezelite players.

I also wouldn’t call it 100% flawless, but it works well enough for me.

My favorite use case for MASS is my desktop PC, in our bedroom, has a decent 5.1 sound system, and is running squeezelite.

I have an alarm automation that starts playing from the random 500 playlist.

When my phone connects to my car’s Bluetooth, it transfers the queue to my phone, which is running snapcast on a VPN.

When my phone disconnects from my Bluetooth, and I am at home, it transfers any queue from my phone back to my desktop.

If I’m not at home it just stops the music, otherwise it’ll start playing through the phone speakers.

While at work, I’ll use Ultrasonic rather than music assistant, because my data inside my work area is sporadic, and not conducive to a good musical experience with how MASS streams.

I’m close to a TB myself. For me, I’m a bit of a “completionist” and can’t stand having just 2 or 3 tracks from an entire album. Every track I have is accompanied by the rest of the album it was released on.

Sure, it means there are some duplicates at times, but it’s worth it to me.

Damn, and I thought my 30k plus tracks was pretty large. I use Navidrome as a server and slskd as well

Hello fellow hass/mass user. Also, what sort of low voltage?

Fire/security alarms? Or access control? (Or both)?

I do both, as well as CCTV.

Ultrasonic works fine for me, on my pixel9 with Navidrome. Plays in the background just fine as well.

Wait. There’s a strawberry for Android? I use it on my PC…

Yeah, but my wife and kid also use it, and they’re not going to be happy if I change things.

And I just tested streaming from my free server to my free phone while said server is at my house, and my phone is with me at work.

Works fine over a VPN.

As was stated on the first post you made about this, it’s a dns or nat reflection issue.

Plex sees you accessing it through your external IP address, and not through your lan IP.

I had a similar problem, and had to roll back some nat changes I made, and now it’s working fine again.

Meanwhile, free remote streaming works fine if you have a proper VPN setup. I just tested it, and was able to stream to my phone, through the Plex app, over my tailscale VPN, and I do not have Plex pass on the server or on my phone…

Real world usage tells me all I need to know.

SMB isn’t really all that slow these days.

I have NFS and SMB shares set up (same directory) and copying files to/from them maxes out my gigabit LAN.

SSH on the other hand is slower, because there’s more CPU overhead.

I do all of those things except neuter animals. Most rural folks do.

Another option is virtualization.

Separate your sharing server from your remote access server, then have them each connect to a different VPN

This is how I do it.

I have several containers and a couple of VMs running on my one server. My router is also currently virtualized (OpnSense running in a Proxmox VM, works great) and it connects to tailscale and uses subnet routing to allow my LAN devices to be accessed from outside my home without putting them directly on the Internet.

Meanwhile, I have two more VPNs set up for two different sharing servers. All on one physical machine.

Tailscale can actually use a Mullvad exit point. I don’t know if you knew that …

TS works better for me than ZT. I started with ZT first, and had random access issues between my android phone, my VPS, and all my local devices.

The local devices could all ping each other’s Zerotier IP addresses, but the vps and phone had issues pinging them, but not each other.

Meanwhile, tailscale is working fine, and I’ve even set up subnet routing so I only need it on my phone, my VPS, and my OpnSense system.

With Zerotier, I couldn’t get routing to work at all.

How, exactly, do you have Intel HD graphics, found on Intel APUs, on a Ryzen AMD system?

Did you even read the link? You don’t need it on every device. It’s not really that difficult to understand.

I AM A 48 YEAR OLD FORMER FUCKING TRUCK DRIVER FOR FUCKS SAKE, and yet, I still managed to set up tailscale on my phone and a computer, and then access my stuff that ISNT running tailscale in any way, shape or form, from my phone, simply because I decided to figure it the fuck out.

Stop being so damned lazy.

I am so fucking tired of this “cater to the lowest common denominator” bullshit.

For #3, subnet routing.

I’m the only one in my family who accesses it on the web player, and the other ways still work fine.

I’m not breaking something for the other two users in my household because of my own convenience.
