  • picard

    A cross-platform music tagger powered by the MusicBrainz database. Picard organizes your music collection by updating your tags, renaming your files, and sorting them into a folder structure, exactly the way you want it.

  • feed all of your music to something like 'musicbrainz picard' - it will sort out all the tags and provide the artwork too

  • supersonic

    A lightweight and full-featured cross-platform desktop client for self-hosted music servers

  • Gonic is a Subsonic-compatible server that supports folders, but it has no built-in web UI so you need to find clients that support browsing by folders. My desktop client Supersonic currently doesn't support browsing by folders but I have a feature request to add it - and am looking for feedback on how the UI should look/work!

  • beets

    music library manager and MusicBrainz tagger

  • You could try https://github.com/beetbox/beets but it seemed very manual and extremely slow. I had better luck with Picard.

  • gonic

    music streaming server / free-software subsonic server API implementation

  • Gonic seems to be the most active fork of Subsonic that supports browsing via folders, but there's no Windows support. I'm considering running it via Docker on my Windows server but haven't had a chance to look into the pros/cons of that. Curious if anyone here can shed some light on this for me
