* refactor(queue): add queue track resolver (thin-state phase 2a) Standalone resolver: QueueItemRef → Track via index batch (library_get_tracks_batch, ≤100/call) → network getSong fallback (P8), into a bounded LRU cache. Holds raw tracks; session star/rating overrides (F4) merged on read via applyQueueOverrides. Sync getCachedTrack + subscribeQueueResolver for selectors; resolveVisibleRange prefetches a [-50, +200] window; carries queue-only flags from refs; invalidate drops entries after a sync succeeds. Not wired into the store/UI yet — phase 2b does that. * refactor(queue): extract toQueueItemRefs helper Pure helper deriving thin QueueItemRefs from a Track[] queue (per-item serverId, queue-only flags), shared by the persist partialize and the upcoming phase-2b resolver bridge. No behaviour change. * refactor(queue): resolver bridge + queue selectors (thin-state phase 2b) Seed the resolver cache from the canonical queue (queueResolverBridge, a windowed [-50, +200] seed around the current index) and add the stable queue selectors (useQueueTrackAt / useCurrentTrack / useQueueItems). Additive: the store stays queue: Track[]-canonical; consumers migrate onto the selectors in phase 3, and the selector impls move to the resolver once queue: Track[] is dropped in phase 4. No mutation or persist change — the persisted queueItems keeps its single restore role (no dual-role clash). * docs(changelog): on-demand queue track loading groundwork (#859)
A modern desktop client for self-hosted music libraries
Fast. Native. Beautiful. Built for people who actually care about their music collection.
Psysonic is built primarily for Navidrome and also works with Gonic, Airsonic, LMS and other Subsonic-compatible servers, depending on the features supported by your server.
Available languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Norwegian Bokmål, Dutch, Romanian, Russian and Chinese.
More translations are added over time.
No telemetry • Native performance • Navidrome-first • Community driven
Warning
Psysonic is under active development. Bugs and rough edges can happen, and features may change as the project evolves.
What is Psysonic?
Psysonic is a desktop music client for self-hosted music libraries. It is designed for people who want the freedom of their own server without giving up the comfort, polish and speed of a modern music app.
It is built with Rust, Tauri v2 and React, with a strong focus on responsiveness, customization, practical music-library workflows and a user interface that does not require a manual before you can press play.
Psysonic is optimized first and foremost for Navidrome. Other Subsonic-compatible servers can work well too, but advanced features may depend on server-side support.
