I am a die-hard Jellyfin user, but I still haven't found a proper way to index and stream my music library with it. As far as i know, Plex is still better at that.
Navidrome and Airsonic advanced provide a better music experience than jellyfin for me anyway and both are free.
I dropped my library in, Jellyfin indexed it and streamed first try. What didn't work for you?
Not the user you replied to, but for me, the issue I've been running into is with featured albums or albums with album artist metadata info filled out {image}.
Its been a minute so I dont have the specific cause I was focused on. This problem was more prevalent in EDM tracks

I don't think jellyfin does any tagging for you. Pretty sure you can edit it, but it's not automatic. I use lidarr and mp3tag for that. Maybe musicbrainz picard on a rare occasion, if I've got a bunch of files that need to be identified first.
Not OP, I've kinda had a middle of the road experience with it.
I run JF and Plex on the same shares.
I dropped 10k tracks on it and a bunch of audiobooks, my stuff is 100% tagged.
I use tailscale to get to the server because here's no Nat Holepunching going on.
I try to use it as much possible for audio, but some days, I just give in and use plexamp (like a guilty pleasure)
cons:
pros:
Can this edit the metadata in bulk? I'll have to give it another shot. I'm pretty sure the album artist was the the problem, and I couldnt just delete that bit.
I dropped my music library into Jellyfin just as an extra. I've built up quite a collection over the years of CDs and always rip and tag them as I acquire new CDs, so while the collection is a little messy it's sizable and mostly correctly tagged
Jellyfin's music playback has been buggy but getting better with updates. At the current rate of improvement it'll probably be really good in a 2-4 years, but right now it's kinda meh. It exists but it's buggy enough that I don't use it much
I've recently had really good luck with Finamp on Android at least. With the recent support of time lyrics in Jellyfin and Finamp's redesign I've been using that to stream my Flac audio files. Works quite well with separate collections as well. Though, to this day I still have to force close it more times than I like to get the UI to refresh after closing it. Plexamp was tough to lose when I swapped many years ago, but the third party space has slowly been closing that gap over the years.
