Addition of Music buffer to Android App - wanderman - 2024-09-05
Hello, unfortunately I'm not as technically savvy as to be able to check myself whether the requested feature is already available in the app. However, after my search, I couldn't find any settings that would lead me to believe that such a feature exists within the official jellyfin app.
I would like a buffer for played songs to be added. Last week I carried out several tests with songs that had irregular noises such as hissing or scratching. After several tests in which I tested the finamp and jellyfin app side by side, I came to the conclusion that this is probably due to the lack of a buffer for songs in the Jellyfin app. Of course, I tested the played songs separately beforehand on the PC via direct play and in jellyfin web via my local IP address. These definitely have no defects. The problem must therefore arise between the server and the mobile app.
Below is a screenshot of how finamp integrated this feature.

IIRC the issue with hissing and scratching has to do with how LUFS/normalization is implemented in the Android app. And I believe that is an issue only when the source file is transcoded. Anyone feel free to chime in and correct me.
Prior to server 10.9, before LUFS were added, I never had an issue with hissing or scratching in the official Android app.
It's been a while since I've used the official app for music. I just stick with Finamp. Especially after the beta redesign.
