Connect Navidrome

The setup page signs in to Navidrome with your username and password. nowplaying turns the password into a salted Subsonic API token and keeps only that token; it never stores your password and the token cannot sign in to the Navidrome web interface.

Before you start

  • Your Navidrome server is running and reachable from the PC running nowplaying.
  • You know the username and password of the Navidrome account whose listening you want to show.

Steps

  1. In setup, choose Navidrome.
  2. Enter your server address, for example https://music.example.com or http://192.168.1.20:4533.
  3. Enter your Navidrome username and password and choose Sign in.
  4. Run the connection test.

Success looks like: the test passes and setup shows your Navidrome username.

Common problems

  • Authentication failed: check the username and password by signing in to the Navidrome web interface.
  • Connection test fails with "unreachable": check the address opens in a browser on the same PC.

The salted token is stored in Windows Credential Manager, not in the settings file.
