Unexpected Mobile Data Usage

Support
1

Issue description:

I was checking my mobile data usage yesterday and I realised that Symfonium has been using much more mobile data than I’d expect.
I have Offline Cached pretty much all my media, certainly the media I play, so I decided to dig in and investigate this.

I have managed to reproduce (what I believe to be) the issue and I’m hoping you can help me understand what’s going on please.

In my example/test that I’ve done here, I have the Calvin Harris Album “I Created Disco” fully offline cached, as shown in my screenshot. I switch to mobile (Wifi Off) yet when I jump around the songs in the Album, while I am looking at my Navidrome logs I see what I believe to be requests to stream the media from the server, which to my understanding shouldn’t be happening.

Additional information:

I understand I can/could turn on the “Wifi Only” option in my Media Provider setting, but I do want to be able to stream some media if I haven’t remembered to cache it (which is often the case with new media I add)

Reproduction steps:

Here’s the logs from my Navidrome Instance while the debug session was underway:

It is the three “Streaming file” logs that I believe are the problem - I’m on mobile, the media is cached, I don’t believe there should be any streaming.

I am running Navidrome 0.58.0 on my Debian Linux server. It is not running in a Docker Container. To expose it to the world properly, it sits behind an Apache Reverse proxy, the config of which looks like this:

I do have Wireguard VPNs setup on my phone, but it was not turned on during this test and isn’t usually turned on, so I don’t believe it to be relevant. However I mention this as a I know “Only Cosider Primary connection for Wi-Fi status” mentions it in the documentation.

Media provider:

Subsonic

What do you mean by that ? You seems to be able to trigger a lot of media details before preparation but I don’t see how it’s possible.

3

Sorry I just meant that I have the list of songs up in Album view and I click random songs, listen for about 4-5 seconds and then click another. This obviously isn’t “real world” how I listen to my media, but it shows the problem. I orignally found this after being on mobile for quite a long time and looking back at my Navidrome logs and finding lots of “Streaming file” messages in the logs I wasn’t expecting.

4

Can you make a video ? This should not happen on 13.5.0b

5

Sure thing, standby.

6

OK this time I only managed to trigger one streaming event, everything else seemed to play from a cache. It’s like it’s not using the Offline Cache but rather the rolling cache

I will DM you the link to the screen recording.

The files are never streamed from the server, the issue is about format / waveform extractions.

In your case this is due to a race with playback cache, you can disable it for now if most of your content is cached anyway. Will be fixed in next release.

Thank you, appreciate the support.

This is just FYI but even with “Playback Cache Size” set to “Disabled” I’m still seeing these messages when I’m on Mobile:

I just wondered if that’s expected as you mentioned above I shouldn’t see them anymore?

There’s no access in the logs, enable traces in Navidrome to see more details.

Hi,
I put on trace logs and I tried really hard to reproduce the problem, but I couldn’t. So not sure what happened above, but no matter what I do Symfonium is behaving as you’ve indicated it will. Thanks again.
