That’s a bummer. we have a issue open for the going idle part. I have not been able to track down or replicate it on my end but if you want to open or add to that issue to get more details that would be helpful. My suspicion is that it is a combination of particular configuration of settings that cause it.
an excellent community contribution!
It was what I ended up with years ago after google play died and I went to self host. It was the easiest to stand up, configure, and get going not to mention back up and restore. Also, extremely lightweight. Nothing terribly fancy but the dev has made solid and continuous progress for years. I have seen some other back- ends but I’m hesitant to switch when this does everything I need. I also run it on a pi.
Am I the only going back to IRC? I’m not a gamer so I just use it for chat and setting up my own irc was straight forward. Even set up a webui for my friends who don’t know how navigate irc through regular clients.
Not familiar with sonos but there is nothing in the app that is specific to sonos so you are probably not blind. In general, it only streams from your phone to a bluetooth or (if using the gh variant) chromecast which needs work.
