I have a fenix 7x watch.
I have an android smartphone.
I have a windows 11 desktop PC.
I have a TrueNAS NAS on my LAN
I have a spare laptop to make a linux machine thing/server. (Might be needed to dedicate it as a media server or router?)
I have a spectrum router (model number: sax1v1s)
I want to play music from the NAS to the watch at home and ideally out in the world. I am not very tech inclined, but I can work my way through computer jargon. I am flexible with caching things on an SSD or HDD at this point on either the windows desktop PC or another dedicated server beyond the TrueNAS.
I have managed to download subsonic from https://www.subsonic.org/pages/index.jsp
I have managed to load in a few music test files and get them to play locally on the my windows 11 computer.
I have managed to find the network submenu in subsonic's settings and check off " Automatically configure your router to allow incoming connections to Subsonic (using UPnP or NAT-PMP port forwarding). " which yielded a " Status: Successfully forwarding port 4040. "
However as far as " Access your server over the Internet using an easy-to-remember address." I get a
"Status: Could not connect to greenshirtcover2.subsonic.org. (ConnectTimeoutException) "
I don't know what that really means other than maybe my router not liking it and I have to do manual stuff which I am not familiar with.
Can anyone here please help me get this app going? I've been trouble shooting it for several hours. Any help is appreciated.

If you want to sync more than 15-20 songs in a playlist, I would recommend Ampache instead of Subsonic! And if you are going to need file sharing in the future, Nextcloud might be even better (includes both Ampache and Subsonic, but also very reliable file server, calendar, contacts etc.). I have no experience with TrueNAS, but based on a Google search "Ampache on TrueNAS", it seems to be similar to normal server setup.
Making it accessible from outside the network is the challenging part. You need a domain name, DNS entry, and Apache or nginx to accept incoming traffic. Furthermore, most watches require https certificates as well. I found a guide for installing HTTPS certificates on a TrueNAS Nextcloud installation (would work the same for Ampache): here
