Yes, actually I have Emby server on my NAS to manage my movie collection, so that could theoretically work for music, too.
Right now, my DAC is set up with MoOde player pointing directly to a separate public folder for music outside the Emby server directory.
I was hoping to use Musicbee on Android as my control point so that I could also have access to, and manage, my play lists. I've tried various MPD remotes, which all don't display album art in the library. The closest thing is Kore/Yatse, for Kodi which presents album thumbnails in a library view, however it's anemic as a play list manager.
