January 13, 20233 yr I know there are a number of ways to stream music from an unRaid server. I primarily use Plex for this. However, I am looking for an application that can run on unRaid, and works with a client that is Apple Car Play ready. IE i would like to access my home music collection via Apple CarPlay. Plex is not CarPlay friendly likely because no one would support a driver being able to watch movies Any advise or direction to investigate is apprecaited.
January 13, 20233 yr Have you tried Emby? A blog entry about their iOS App updated with Carolyn at the end of 2020: https://emby.media/emby-for-ios-updated-with-carplay-improved-hdr-and-more.html
January 16, 20233 yr Author I've been out of town for a couple days, but will check both of these out. Thanks.
January 16, 20233 yr Plex does work on Android Auto, and it limits to music libraries, disallowing video from playing due to the reason you had mentioned above. I'm not sure about CarPlay, but Android does allow music to be played.
January 16, 20233 yr Spotify?... You will never access Apple through or via anything without giving up more than you wish to give. In case I wasn't clear... Don't use Apple. MrGrey.

I'm not sure about CarPlay, but Android does allow music to be played. Plex doesnt show up on carplay. I'd be fine if it was music only.

January 16, 20233 yr Solution If you have Plex pass then you can use plex to stream your audio library. Plexamp is the app and works great with both carplay and android auto. https://plexamp.com/ Edited January 16, 20233 yr by mewnbewn adding link
