Is there a music app to which I can stream from my NAS that supports CarPlay? (lemmy.world)

Hi,

I've built my own NAS recently and I'm trying to get the max use out of it. I seem to be unable to find any iOS music app that integrates with CarPlay except VLC.

VLC works "okay" for streaming files that are on my phones local storage but it's quite glitchy and sometimes tends to crash or becomes unresponsive. However the network shares are not accessible to navigate trough on the CarPlay dashboard and either I'm missing something but I can't add any network shared folders to the Albums which are accessible on the dashboard.

BONUS: If the app allows transcoding so I don't have to stream FLAC over mobile data, that would be a big time saver.

THANKS!

Manet seems to work really nicely and actually also has kinda good and simple UI. I'm settling for this for now. Jellify/Jellyfin has some major issues when I try to send to CarPlay and it stutters heavily and sometimes randomply stops playback after 2s so that's kinda weird.

edit:

Damn, it even has Siri integration, you win extra points today!
