Just a personal use case, maybe it isn't an advantage. But the official android app is just a web wrapper and the use of MPV as external player don't allow self-signed local certificates (and they never will...).

Findroid does the job for you while using MPV under the hood and you can connect to your local DNS with self-signed certs without any issues :).

    I have no issues connecting to my server when using my local DNS and self-signed certificates with the normal app either, or perhaps I'm misunderstanding you.

    Ohhh? I tried to make it work even adding the certificate into de /data folder of MPV (rooted android) but it didn't worked... (source)

    I remember I even checked the logs via ADB and while I can't remember the exact error logs, it wasn't accepting my certificate.

    Also android MPV is the only application on Android that doesn't accept my self-signed certificate. Navidrome, HTTP shortcuts, bitwarden, Tempo... They all accept without any problems.

    If you have some juicy info to share I'm all ears 👍 !!

    Edit: It's probably related to android 14 (god I hate it here...) But can't revert to 13... The Stock firmware builds are Bitwise different.
