I can’t tell if Jellyfin is a terrible DLNA server for music or if Denon’s HEOS app is a terrible DLNA client. This is not useful for a 1TB music collection. #jellyfin #heos #denon
So, der vollständikeit halber, gebe ich mir dann selbst mal eine Rückmeldung. Habe die #Denon Soundbar 550 dann doch gekauft. Trotz der Ungewissheit wie es nach der Übernahme nun mit #heos weitergehen mag. Erster Eindruck ist sehr gut. Einrichtung, alles sehr einfach, Sound für diese geringe Größe sehr gut. Verbindung zum Synology NAS bisher ohne Probleme (mit LAN). Die Heos App bietet noch viel mehr optionen welche ich bisher nicht nutze (Tidal, Alexa,..). Für den Preis bisher sehr zufrieden 🙂
This is s SUPER niche post, but if you use a speaker or receiver with the #HEOS system and are looking for gentle, ambient, spa-like music through TuneIn that DOESN’T HAVE ADS, Yoga Sounds by FluxFM is one that I’ve found.
@panda @masek This unfortunately did not work well for my #denon #heos Homecinema Bar. I’ve tried to separate into it's own Media Wifi with mDNS support but I failed to fully control it via App. So I cannot recommend Heos or Denon, although they sound really great. I've heard only good from the WiiM but have no first hand experience. My take away from this experience: Don't get a soundbar or smart speaker, choose a dedicated receiver with it's own LCD and buttons... stay away from Apps as much as possible (although I'll need either AirPlay 2 or #qobuzconnect for streaming..

So I have been using #Spotify with #HEOS on my #Marantz SR6015 surround receiver for years, and it's been working flawlessly. Since Spotify is kinda evil and bad we moved to #Tidal instead, which also supports HEOS - either via Tidal Connect or directly from the HEOS app.

About a month in I have discovered that unlike Spotify, my receiver is not super happy about Tidal Connect. Once my receiver crashed outright, but usually it just kinda slowly breaks until playing music on the receiver doesn't work at all and you need to cut the power.

Using the HEOS app to launch Tidal might work better and it even works after Tidal Connect breaks down completely, so I'm inclined to blame Tidal (although it's on the receiver that I need to pull the plug).

All in all, I'm not super satisfied.

Hi, zufällig jemand hier mit #heos /#Denon Lautsprechern/Soundbar hier, der/die berichten mag, wir gut das abspielen von einem #nas (#Synology) #jellyfin #dlna share funktioniert? Also in Bezug auf, Browsen durch grössere Musiksammlungen, Suchmöglichkeinten, Verbindungsabbrüche der App, etc. Die früheren Erfahrungen mit einem #Teufel Gerät sind dahingehend sehr bescheiden. Überlege gerade eine Denon Home Sound Bar 550 oder 250/350 Speaker anzuschaffen. Oder gibt es bessere Alternativen?
To setup a #heos home speaker it seems an internet uplink AND a heos account is required.
I consider that #CRAPWARE
DO NOT BUY IT
#denon #marantz #music

Dass es die in schwarz und weiß gibt sowie dass es ein „großes Geschwistermodell" gibt, wären nette Pluspunkte.

Ich sehe als (Kompromiss-)Möglichkeiten z.B.:
• Apple HomePod Mini
• Sonos Era 100
• Yamaha MusicCast 20
• Audio Pro A10 MkII
• Denon Home 150 NV

Einige sind 5+ Jahre unverändert aufm Markt; das schreckt mich ab. Keins hat Fernbedienung, weshalb „Favoritentasten“ umso wichtiger wären.

Der #Denon („NV“-Variante) sieht ganz OK aus – hat jemand Erfahrungen mit diesem #HEOS-Universum?

I think I am a fan #Qobuz now 😀
Today I bought something and accidentally I noticed that the #heos app has an integration for qobuz. Now I can stream directly to my receiver. The local copy gives me also the freedom of choice how and wherever I want to listen to my music. I f**king love it!

Thanks to @rusty for the hint with qobuz.
And also thanks to @NikTheDusky for his talk at #gpn23 which brought me to #navidrome

It's not even that the devices are asleep, they show up in `avahi-discover` and I can list the info about their advertised abilities. They're just not showing up in the sound UI anymore.

My work laptop (a Mac) is still showing up, even though that's asleep too. 🤷
