WiFi SMB Sync coming soon!
I am excited to announce I've been working on a syncing app for the Y1!
The app basically creates a web server to open a settings page where you can enter your SMB details (working on WebDAV - Future thing..) It then allows you to select which folder from the NAS to sync over to Y1. I am currently working on flushing out the library functionality to manage the music stored on the device. Then I will make the UI a little prettier and hopefully release.
I am running Rockbox on my device but I believe the stock OS will work with this too - More testing on that is needed.
What works now:
- Android app to turn server on and off
- SMB one-way sync functionality
Todo:
- Fix some broken android side functions like the Sync Now button
- work out Auto Sync functionality
- Library management - Ease of use and adding features - It's very barebones right now.
- Playlist management - Not yet implemented
- Updater - Since there is no easy way to update the app - trying to make it so it can pull an update from github and update itself
I am open to hear your thoughts and what you'd like to see! I keep my library on my NAS. Open to hear if others are using a different system and see how I can make it work.
Please note: While my background is in web and graphic design, I am not a developer by trade. I just like to mess with tech and figure things out as I go. Of course, with the age of AI, things are much easier now. AI was used in the making of this software. If you are against this - Feel free to continue dragging and dropping your music LOL.
