Has anybody here managed to install Funkwhale using Portainer? I've already tried 3 times, first tried a template, but turns out the AIO container is deprecated, then tried modifying the default docker-compose and env files available on Funkwhale's repo, didn't work (couldn't run the required commands to create a user). Then I spun up a brand new debian 12 LXC container on proxmox, ran their quick install script and failed (something related to snapd, even though it was installed).

Up until now I've been an avid Navidrome user, but since we've been cutting some costs, Spotify had to go. Too late I realised Navidrome has no library separation: Even though you can have multiple users, they all pull from the same library, making it a mess.

I'm just looking for a simple deployment I can use either within my LAN or via TailScale, just for me and a few family members.

I'm looking for a media player/OS for an ARM SBC that can stream from my navidrome (subsonic compatible) music server, and be controlled via either a web GUI or an android app. I'd love to hear what you guys came up with!

Currently really happy with my setup, I'm using Navidrome as my music server, along with Ultrasonic as my phone client.

I've set up a (dumb/analog) speaker system on my workshop, and I'd like to be able to listen to music there, but I don't want to add a whole setup (be it an old laptop, or add kb/mouse, monitor and such) and my phone no loner has a 3.5mm jack.

I have a Raspberry Pi 3, an OrangePi Zero, and an OrangePi PC+. I'd rather use the zero or the PC+ since they're kinda unstable/wonky and I don't trust them anymore for stuff I want to keep running 24/7 (like pihole).

I'm open to testing other music servers (volumio maybe?) on my main homelab if that means having the ability to change the client/sink from the app/gui (something like what Spotify does, where you can pick from any client to stream to other clients/speakers)

My server is a regular pc hidden away behind the tv console, it's running ubuntu server and most services run inside docker.

One of the most used services is Jellyfin. It works reliably on all PCs but it's a mess on my samsung tv running tizen. I enabled developer mode and built jellyfin app for it, but depending on the codec or size, it'll buffer or skip audio and its getting really annoying.

How would you go about adding a jellyfin frontend (jellyfin media player) on the server itself, since I could plug in a 2m HDMI cable for video output?

EDIT: I should probably explain a bit better. The server has a Ryzen 3 3200G with integrated graphics, so video output itself would be trivial (just plug an HDMI cable to the motherboard output). Right now if I plug it in, I get a TTY since it's a server distro not intended to have a GUI. My question was more along the lines of how to set up the lightest graphical session to run jellyfin media player (probably via flatpak so it's independent of the OS environment).

In general it would be somewhat easy to set up a bare X/Wayland session and just launch the program, but the part I forsee being troublesome is the "newer" tech: surround sound (via e-arc) 4k and HDR. Right now, whenever I use the jellyfin tizen app, if it "likes" the video file (transcoding is disabled due to weak cpu) it works perfectly, 4k, HDR, 5.1... I don't have much of a budget or even space to build a secondary HTPC, although I do have a spare Rpi 3b... worst case scenario I could try something like OSMC, but I'd rather have a consistent UX (Jellyfin as the frontend for everything)
