Network source setup

You can import tracks from your PLEX, koel or Airsonic server.

GStreamer Bug: Currently there are issues with instant seeking from some sources. In my testing:

  • PLEX: No tracks can instant seek.
  • Airconic: Only MP3 tracks can instant seek.
  • Koel: All tracks can instant seek.

To connect Tauon to your server:

  1. Make sure your server is setup, running and accessible.
  2. In Tauon, to go MENU > Settings > Accounts and click the tab button for your server type.
  3. Fill the relevant fields with your account information. Then click the Import music to playlist button.

Note: This playlist will not auto synchronize. To update, simply delete the playlist and import again.

Note: Server side playlists are currently not supported.

Warning: Multiple source servers of the same type are not supported. If you switch or reset your server, you must remove all existing network tracks before importing again. You can do this by going MENU > Database... > Remove Network Tracks.


AUR users: For PLEX, install python-plexapi package from AUR.
