AiMusic ٤+

Works ok with Asustor AS4004T

I have a large collection of music I uploaded into AS4004T. The iTunes server on the NAS works pretty decent. There is a tiny lag when streaming from AS4004T to MacBook pro via itunes. But from AS4004T to iPhone 8 via Aimusic app, there is a much longer lag.

But this is a review of aimusic
Good:
It loads all the lists pretty quick and no issues connecting to AS4004T. Very reliable in this regard, considering how much music (over 100 GB)
The connection set up was pretty easy.
Playlist functionality seems to be there but I haven't tried alot yet.
Oh and this allows iPhone to play music from AS4004T iTunes server on both iPhone and homepod, while iPhone iTunes can't even connect to AS4004T iTunes server.

Bad:
And the fade in to beginning of every song is not good. When playing the same song on MacBook pro, you can hear the full beginning of song. But on iPhone, AiMusic seems to enter into the song 1-2 seconds in, so it's an abrupt jump, which is annoying. also when going to next song there is a long lag, which isn't great for live concert music where the music continues from track to track. Both of these things don't happen with iTunes on MacBook.

Hi Breadbubb,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are really sorry for what you have experienced.
This might be related to the side effect when we tried to solve the issue" Song repeat playing after the end of the song."
We will try our best to figure out if there are any alternatives.

Lastly, what do you mean by "iPhone iTunes can't even connect to AS4004T iTunes server.:?
If you have questions, you can email to pinhaohuang@asustor.com

Lacks an equalizer and sort by option

Great app to stream from NAS, clean interface makes it awesome.
Needs an equalizer to make it complete and a 'sort by' option when browsing by folders. Otherwise it would be 5 stars!

Apple CarPlay

When does the application support Apple CarPlay？
