Problem playing music on Android

[mjremijan]

Hi everyone. I am running JellyFin server version 10.11.2

I am having problems with music on both JellyFin and the FinAmp Android apps.

For the FinAmp app on Android, I can navigate first to an Artist and see their list of Albums. But when I select an Album, the application seems to crash and my entire phone screen just turns grey.  Nothing else, just the entire screen is grey. I can still play individual songs, I just can't navigate to an Album to see/play songs just in that album.

For the Jellyfin app on Android, I can navigate to an Artist and I can also navigate to an Album. When I am at the Album, I can play individual songs in the album, but if I hit the "Play" button or the "Shuffle" button on the album, I get an error: "Playback Error Unable to find a valid media source to play". I find this strange since I can play songs individually. ALSO, this problem is exactly the same accessing Jellyfin through Chrome or Edge.

Any thoughts on this?

I am also having this problem with the 10.11 releases.

I found a suggestion online that Refreshing Metadata and choosing Replace All Metadata on your music library might fix the issue with Finamp, at least. Unfortunately for me (and many others, it seems) refreshing metadata for the music library crashes Jellyfin Server.

If your server isn't crashing every day, give it a try and report back!
