My moode setup is roughly:
I do have one issue with my setup that I haven't really been able to find a clean solution for: I'd like to split my audio into two separate libraries, one for music and one for spoken word. Spoken word contains audiobooks and podcasts.
These are already represented as separate SMB shares, but they end up in the same library.
The main pain point with this is that in album view, for example, I see music and spoken word "albums" mixed while I'd like to be able to browse one or the other.
I feel using id3 genre tag is too limiting for this purpose.
A workaround I've used has been to add all music to a playlist and shuffling that. This does nothing for the album view though.
Are there other ways to address this setup issue?
- raspberry pi runs moode
- two SMB shares contain audio
- streaming goes through Topping DAC
- control through web interface on computer and M.A.L.P on Android
