Loving it, finally a polished player/controller
After a long search for a Roon (and ARC) alternative, I’ve tried many options and xTune + Lyrion might finally be it.
There are alternatives out there, but they all feel half-baked: missing features, rough edges, poor user experience. xTune stands out as the best of the bunch by a wide margin, even if a few things aren’t quite polished yet. At this point, I’m unlikely to renew my Roon subscription.
The main limitations come from Lyrion itself. Some Roon-equivalent features rely on extensions rather than being built-in, but once you adapt to that workflow, it becomes perfectly acceptable.
Excited to see where this app goes.
Pair it with a VPN to access your home library and you’ve got a solid on-the-go solution.

Super application pour Daphile
A great way to get the best out of my music library
Love this app - much easier to use and control my player. The app sourced and displayed interesting information about the works playing and the composer which adds to the pleasure of listening.
Funktioniert auch auf dem Mac
Sehr übersichtliche Möglichkeit, um auf meine Musiksammlung, die über Lyrion (früher Logitech) Media Server verwaltet wird, zuzugreifen. Besonders gut gefällt mir die »Discovery«-Funktion, die mir immer wieder Alben aus meiner Musiksammlung vorschlägt, die ich zwischendrin aus den Augen verloren habe. Läuft auch prima auf macOS und ist dort als Player eingebunden.
