    Does this support custom tags and smart playlists built from the tags? I’ve been looking for a self hosted service that does that for so long.

      Are you referring to genre tags? If so, they’re adding that feature in version 2.8.

      There is also a Don’t Stop The Music feature, however that relies on functionality from the underlying provider.

      The Don’t Stop The Music (DSTM) option can be enabled if a provider is available which supports dynamic tracks (i.e. Apple, Deezer, Spotify, Subsonic, Tidal and YTM). When DSTM is on, radio mode will be automatically enabled when the last track of the queue is reached and if any dynamic tracks can be resolved from one of the providers. The added tracks will be based on the played items in the queue.

        Not exactly referring to that but kinda. We like to add custom tags that we decide for each track and then build playlists from those tags. So a playlist might have a genre tag but also, for example, the tag “relaxing” so a playlist is made up of all songs with those tags (playlist of all songs tagged both with “classical” and “relaxing”).

          So do you have just a bunch of random boolean tags? The Genre tag can hold multiple values, so you could have “Classical;Relaxing;String Quartet;Suites” if you wanted and each is identified separately.
