As above, I'm looking for a music player app that would ideally have one main app, preferably in Docker, providing a Web UI and several linux-based players (essentially mini PCs) could connect to it which it could control.

It would need to be able to play music from NFS or SMB shared. Spotify integration is a bonus.

If anyone knows anything that would fulfill at least half of the above, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

Remote playback or remote control?

Off-hand it sounds like you want media to playback on the remote device, so either Jellyfin or Plex. Personally, I use Jellyfin, though Plex does have better apps.
