Streaming Music With different Media Folder

Postby noleech » Mon Mar 19, 2012 5:41 pm

Hi,

First I would like to say thank you for the awesome App. My 2 feature requests so far are about streaming specific media folder and displaying certain media folder for certain user. I'm a music fanatic and I love all kinds of music. Weather it's native to my language, foreign, or digital sound. Here is the detail on the break down of my music.

My Collection:
So far I have 3 Main folders type. One is USA-Europe Music, Asian Music, and Video Games Soundtrack. Underneath each folder, I have it broken down by genre, artist, albums, etc... sub folders.

My First Request
In the subsonic app, under media folder I have the 3 folders above added. I would like to be able to select the specific media folder and stream all the songs under that specific media folder randomly. Right now it's streaming all the music. I don't want to run 3 physical servers for each Main media folder. I just want 2 servers for redundancy. Hopefully, that makes sense.

My Second Request
I would like to see user base access to my media folders. For example, let just said my Asian friend likes only Asian music and only want to see Asian music to show up when he logs in. Base on his account access, he would only see the Asian Music media folder. Most of my American friends and European friends have their own taste, and so they are not diverse in Asian music culture and so I would like to only display the USA-Europe Music. Right now I'm running 3 servers just to server 3 different kind of music. Hopefully that makes sense.


Thanks

First, Love this app. I used my Android to access my music and it rocks.

Second, I agreed with you noleech. I have 3 media folders added int my Subsonic server. I used my Android phone to access the server and it does allows me to select the media folder, but unfortunately, I can't just stream the specific media folder. It just streams all music. I would like to see the feature to be able to stream randomly within a specific media folder. Also, it's a good idea to have user access for only a specific media folder. Noleech, hopefully, your request can be easily implemented. Peace!!!
