Hi, as per the title; does anyone happen to know a good foss offline music player with support for Android Auto? TIA for any suggestions!
Pretty sure VLC supports Android Auto.
Of course, Android Auto itself is not FOSS.
Thank you! I’ll try out VLC for playing my offline music.
Yes, unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a foss alternative for Android Auto. If someone happens to know one, I am open to recommendations.
Thanks for the input!
You might try enabling developer mode in Android auto. You can then force apps to work with Android Auto.
I use VLC
Thank you! I’ll try out VLC.
I’ve had good luck with Metro/Retro.
Thank you! Trying out Metro now.
Jellyfin works surprisingly well for me. Album art and able to browse artists, etc.
Ow cool, didn’t realise I could use Jellyfin for this purpose also. Will try it out, cheers!
What is Android Auto? I thought it only makes your phone act like a USB to share files right to your computer
Android Auto is the Android equivalent to Apple CarPlay. I.e., it mirrors your Android phone screen onto your car display.
