From 34eedf4d1b92fbe83e5a607dee1f1af5bb7b5976 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hugh Cole-Baker <256988+sigmaris@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 13 Jul 2025 10:31:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Update dns-sd arguments for modern Apple Music app Just having the "ffid=..." argument doesn't seem to be enough to make the owntone library appear in recent versions of Apple's Music.app; I copied the extra arguments from a real instance of Music.app and with them, the owntone library is usable in Music.app like it used to work in iTunes. --- docs/advanced/remote-access.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/advanced/remote-access.md b/docs/advanced/remote-access.md index ba31fd91..29f19aed 100644 --- a/docs/advanced/remote-access.md +++ b/docs/advanced/remote-access.md @@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ need to broadcast the DAAP service to iTunes on your local machine.
