In AJ Audio, you can play your favourite tracks even when you are not connected to your Jellyfin server.
When you are logged into Jellyfin, you will see an option titled "Available offline" when you right click an item. If an item is indeed available offline, a tick will be visible.
Make an item available offline
When you choose to make an item available offline, the following will happen:
- The track will be downloaded in its original format
- The associated album art, artist art, and artist banner image will be downloaded
- Lyrics will be downloaded to disk
If you pin an item to your library without making it available offline, the artist and/or album art will be downloaded while the item itself will be inaccessible. This is to ensure thumbnails are present on your pinned items whether you are signed in or not.
What items can I make available offline?
You can make tracks, albums, entire artist discographies, and playlists available offline with just a simple click.
Removing an item
If you choose to untick "Available offline", its associated data on your computer will be deleted, freeing up space used by the app cache.
Clearing cache
The "Clear cache" option in the settings page will remove all files that are marked as available offline, as well as associated data. You will be prompted for confirmation.
Rating, disliking, and favouriting while offline
Items can still be rated, disliked, and favourited even while you are not connected to your server. Changes you make are simply recorded and are transmitted to your Jellyfin server when you are next signed in
Notes
Some options in the settings page will be unavailable while you are offline. While offline, you cannot modify a Jellyfin playlist, replace album art, or find lyrics.
