Hi guys I’m looking for hosting own audio server. So far I have run Roon and Plex. Server I want to host is on remote machine and want to stream to iOS, Android TV and Desktop. Would be great if it also would let me organize my library (that part might also be separate app)

I can recommend Navidrome. Organizing of library with Lidarr and (Beets)[https://beets.io]
I’m using Beets for tagging because of the Discogs plugin.
Lidarr for visual overview of the library.

Beets My issue is that some of my media files are messed up tried to use Beets though not sure if I did something wrong but I messed up a bit.

Lidarr can be used for tagging too and it does have a web interface.
Cleaning a messed up library with Beets is tough and depends on how the individual files are sorted. Start importing/organizing a small part or some albums to find out how it works. And a backup of data is always recommend!

you need to be organised with beet. Import your music one album after an other. use "-t" to be sure that beet is guessing albums correctly. It is lot of work, but once it done it is smooth sailing.
