BeetstreamNext

BeetstreamNext exposes your Beets music library over the OpenSubsonic API, letting you stream your music to any Subsonic/OpenSubsonic/Navidrome-compatible client.

Essentially all of the Subsonic/OpenSubsonic API specification is supported, including its extensions. Only the video-streaming functionalities are excluded (see API coverage).

BeetstreamNext also reaches beyond your Beets library to provide metadata augmentation (artist biographies and pictures, Discogs ratings, etc…) and additional reliability/security tweaks.

See Features for the full detailed view.

Project history

BeetstreamNext originated as a fork of Beetstream. It has since fully separated and shares almost no code with the original, but it’s still worth crediting :)
