ACCESSING ADMIN OPTIONS

Below the Config section is the Server section. Skip through to see what else you can do with your mStream server. Settings enables you to change the port number from the default 3,000 if you need to, while Transcoding is where you go to allow remote players to transcode music streams if they don’t natively support your music’s file format(s). The Lock Admin API option allows you to disable the entire Admin section to protect it from outside interference.
Because the Admin section is a user-friendly way to edit mStream’s configuration file, you still have the ability to tweak settings, albeit via a text editor. Annoyingly, there’s no standard location (or name) – it varies depending on how you installed mStream. If you installed via the AppImage, browse to the hidden .config/ mstream/save folder inside your Home folder where you’ll find server-config-v3.json; the compiled version stores it in the mStream directory under save/conf directory, as default.json. Finally, you’ll find config.json in the root directory of your docker container’s config folder.
