That’s great news, I will check your app tonight.
As I’m currently changing the api because of the comments, @nickvergessen has made, it would be best not to start with a widget for the dashboard.

Great! i was just installing the old one, so i replaced it with yours
i don’t know if this can be added in the audioplayer, but i was wondering if it is possible to share audio with remote users where they can only listen to the music, without being able to download.
Haha, that’s funny you say that.
I’m setting up nextcloud for our company and we are a music publisher. So we would like to share audio with our composers
this is the most common one I read about. but it requires other libraries in the backend.
to be honest: a little challenging for my knowledgebase at the moment. but never say never.
if thats the only issue thats found
puhhh
I found a token-based songplay in the code already which is linked to sharing I think (need to check the details).
But at the end its a javascript library which makes the soundfile playable by the browser itleft.
it generates a url like https ://testserver/owncloud/apps/audioplayer/getaudiostream?file=/Album%29/song.mp3
this is opened in the browser-media-api
and this - at least in my safari - provides a “download video as” right-click.
As with any content (also online videos) that is streamed: the 1/0s are transferred and you are the receiver.
It could be thought about stripping the media-file but then you will have gaps.
Or not playing the full song when sharing and only like the first 30s???
Making 30s of music available for everyone to listen to analogue to what Amazon offers might be a useful approach for Systeembeheer, but if you think on a larger scale:
2 federated clouds, one is mine, one is a friend of mine. I would be able to share a song with him, without he actually having access to downloading it.
this MIGHT really be worth an effort. I have never managed to continue my bachelor of laws but there actually might be a chance of this approach being covered by “private use” clause without any law or collecting society taking measures. If that turns out true this could shake the grounds of music industry…and it all started with YOUR APP.
How you can possible be NOT motivated now to give it a try, would really be beyond me
Looks like the app is only searching in nextcloud itself, not on external storage. My music collection is on an external storage (a local one) which is not being scanned.
Would love to see something like in the music-app, where I can define the location of my music collection (in the personal settings).
what do you mean by external?
I have my music on SMB shares, mounted in OC and it works for me.
are all your external folders indexed/scanned in the files app (or via occ scann-all)?
because the app only finds the files with the correspoding mimetypes by searching the filecache-table.
I have set up two external storages: one dropbox and one local.
I can see both in nextcloud filemanager. The music-app scans and finds the collection without a problem.
This is awesome and so far it’s working really well. However, it looks weird when I open an album with only one song in it. It actually splits the line in half and displays the top-half on the left, bottom half on the right.
(I rip my CDs to FLAC only.)
