Hello I’m new here. I’ve set up Symfonium + Navidrome + AMA. And I can’t find the workflow I used to with other streamings. In the car I usually just pressed something like “Play something I would like” and it played something I like. But now I need to find a seed song first, then manually set up on Smart Queue or Radio Mix (I know there’s an option to remember Radio Mix settings but then if I occasionaly want to listen some album or playlist I need to turn off Radio Mix as it inserts songs in the middle of an playlist).
As I already understood (correct me if i’m wrong please):
- Instant Mix takes a seed item and feeds it to Symfonium’s Mix Generator. The generator thows a whole bunch of similar music to the current music and that’s it. It’s not infinite so you have to press it now and then. No API required, pretty understandable concept.
- Smart Queue automatically and constantly throws music to the end of playlist according to the previous music and Smart Queue Mode (genre/artist etc). BUT when selected mode is “Sonic-analysis-based” it uses AMA. Pretty understandable too. No problems here.
- Radio MIx. It uses AMA and seems to dynamically add music to the current playlist (not necessarily to the end) accordingly to the mode. And it also can act like a Smart Queue if configured in specific way. Feels like boosted Smart Queue.
So please tell me if it is possible to have a separate button like “Play something I would like” that uses AMA to dynamically generate current playlist (based on songs I liked and songs I did/didn’t skip in this session) and also have all these functions disabled when I want to listen whole album/playlist (maybe Smart Queue enabled to continue with similar music after song/playlist is over)? I ask because now It’s kinda frustrating: when I’m driving I need to distract and set up the features properly for the session or constantly skip music that unfits the current vibe.
Thank you!
P.S. I’m sorry if that’s a stupid question with a trivial sollution but I don’t really catch on all these options in the app. I tried honestly.
