Paste any YouTube Music album, playlist, or track link into Yubal and get back a clean, fully tagged music library instead of a pile of video files. Tracks land in Artist and Year-Album folders with numbered filenames, cover art, and synced .lrc lyrics files, while playlists become M3U files that reference the album copies so a song appearing in ten playlists is stored exactly once. Subscribe to playlists and a cron-driven scheduler pulls new tracks into your library automatically on the schedule you set. The web interface shows real-time progress and a job queue that works on mobile, with automatic retries on failed downloads and graceful cancellation when you change your mind. Lyrics come from lrclib.net with a YouTube Music fallback, ReplayGain tags keep playback volume consistent across tracks and whole albums, and audio arrives as opus, mp3, or m4a, downloaded directly when possible and transcoded otherwise. Finished libraries drop straight into Navidrome, Jellyfin, or Gonic, and a browser extension for Firefox and Chrome queues downloads or subscriptions from the YouTube page you are already browsing. Optional cookie support unlocks private playlists, Liked Music, and age-restricted content, and a companion CLI downloads and inspects metadata from the terminal.

AudioMuse-AI transforms your self-hosted music collection into an intelligent sonic discovery universe that generates groove-aware playlists without relying on tag metadata or external streaming APIs. The platform scans audio files directly to extract acoustic properties, rhythmic cadence, harmonic density, and lyrical themes across seventy-two supported languages. Listeners can explore their library through a dynamic two-dimensional interactive music map, discover hidden sonic connections between distant genres, or chart smooth transitional song paths between two completely different tracks. Custom prompt-based querying lets users request niche vibes like late-night lo-fi piano, while automated clustering groups acoustically similar tracks into fresh, genre-defying collections. With Song Alchemy, curators fine-tune playlist moods by interactively adding or subtracting acoustic traits before exporting clean tracklists back to Navidrome, Jellyfin, LMS, Lyrion, Emby, or Plex. A built-in acoustic fingerprinting engine even identifies mystery tracks from twenty-second audio snippets, deduplicating songs across multi-server topologies so every file is processed only once.

Somewhere in your house, a presenter is introducing the next record, and that presenter is a language model running on your own server. Deadair builds you a real radio station rather than another playlist: it picks records from your Navidrome, Jellyfin, Emby, or Plex library, or from Spotify, YouTube Music, Pandora, and Apple Music, writes what the host says between songs, speaks it in that host's own voice, and broadcasts the result as one shared live stream over Icecast, with no skip button and the same show for every listener. From the console you steer it in plain sentences: tell it "rap like Snoop Dogg" and the next hours programme themselves to that brief, or ask why the record on air was chosen and get an answer. The forward lineup runs several hours deep, visible and editable, and nothing reaches air until its audio is already on the machine, so the stream never stutters waiting on a download. Words and voice are separate choices, swapped live in Settings: break-writing can run on a hosted model while a local Kokoro or Chatterbox voice reads it, and a station with no model at all still talks. Twenty-seven bundled plugins cover music sources, metadata, news, weather, and speech, and third-party plugins install from the console.

A streaming-style music player for your own Navidrome, Jellyfin, or OpenSubsonic server, on the desktop or in a browser. Home leads with a featured carousel, genre shortcuts, most played, and newly added releases. Browse by album, artist, genre, folder, or radio station. Queue, lyrics, and visualizer panels can each sit in the player sidebar. Japanese lyrics can show furigana and romaji. Star ratings, favorite hearts, and scrobbling to your server come built in. Shape the sound with a parametric equalizer, a compressor, ReplayGain, and optional transcoding. Auto DJ tops up a dwindling queue with songs or whole albums. Navidrome smart playlists get a visual rule editor with match-all or match-any groups. Choose from 32 built-in themes and 39 interface languages. The catch: Feishin is only the player, so the music server stays separate. In a browser it plays through the web player backend, while the desktop app adds MPV and built-in lyrics fetching. Docker environment variables can preset and lock the server, so guests only type a username and password.

Why split your entertainment life across half a dozen siloed apps when Floppy tracks every movie, television episode, anime season, book, comic, video game, board game, album, and podcast in one unified self-hosted library? A configurable home dashboard shows exactly how much runtime remains in your current shows alongside personalized recommendation rows driven by your genre, studio, cast, and tag history. Music and podcasts are first-class citizens backed by MusicBrainz discography metadata, track-level scoring, Last.fm scrobble polling, and live Pocket Casts episode synchronization. Collectors can catalog physical and digital media ownership down to the exact disc format, video resolution, HDR standard, audio codec, and bitrate, complete with automated Plex collection syncing. Live webhooks and scheduled jobs connect directly to Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Audiobookshelf, Sonarr, Radarr, and Seerr so watches, listens, and library additions log themselves automatically. You can curate public or private lists with programmable smart-list rules, RSS and JSON feeds, Trakt watchlist imports, and barcode ISBN scanning for physical books. Recap-style statistics let you compare custom date ranges across reading streaks, pages read, listening hours, and top actors or authors, while a REST API and built-in Model Context Protocol server power custom automations.

Your next favorite record is hiding in your listening history, and Digarr is the self-hosted discovery engine that finds it, scores it, and queues it for your library. Connect ListenBrainz, Last.fm, Spotify, Deezer, Discogs, or your Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, or Subsonic server, and Digarr builds a taste profile from what you actually play. An AI provider you choose, from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Gemini to a local Ollama model, proposes candidates, and a weighted scoring system ranks them by consensus, similarity, genre overlap, and your past feedback. Every suggestion lands in a review queue where you can preview tracks, approve, reject, or permanently block artists before anything touches your collection. Approve an artist and Digarr adds them to Lidarr with your quality profile, queues the release in slskd, or exports a playlist to Spotify, Navidrome, Jellyfin, Emby, or Plex. Album-level discovery runs on its own: Release Radar catches new releases from artists you follow, Library Gap-Fill surfaces the studio albums you are missing, and scheduled subscriptions keep fresh candidates flowing in without you lifting a finger. Share the instance with family or friends, each with their own queue and connections, protected by local accounts or OIDC single sign-on, and get notified through webhooks, ntfy, Telegram, or Apprise when new picks arrive.

AzuraCast is a solution for running internet radio stations, packaging the entire broadcast stack into a single Docker installation that gets you on air in minutes. Built on PHP with a Vue.js frontend, it uses Liquidsoap as the AutoDJ engine to compile media from playlists, live DJ inputs, and scheduled programming into composited output streams, then broadcasts via Icecast-KH, SHOUTcast 2 DNAS, or Rocket Streaming Audio Server to thousands of concurrent listeners. The media library supports drag-and-drop uploads with automatic metadata extraction, while playlist management handles sequential, random, weighted, and time-scheduled rotations. Live DJ accounts let remote broadcasters connect via BUTT, Mixxx, or any Icecast-compatible software, with automatic crossfade transitions between AutoDJ and live input. The built-in Web DJ tool enables broadcasting directly from the browser without additional software. Each station includes public-facing player pages with now-playing metadata, album art, song history, and embeddable widgets for external websites. The listener request system lets audiences queue songs through the public interface. Multi-station administration hosts unlimited stations on a single server with individual user accounts and granular role-based permissions. Comprehensive analytics track listener counts, geographic distribution, unique listeners, and listening duration with exportable reports. HLS streaming delivers adaptive bitrate broadcasts for mobile compatibility. LADSPA audio plugins enable professional equalization and processing in the stream pipeline.

Listening to music across Spotify on your commute, Jellyfin at your desk, and Sonos in the living room usually leaves your play history fragmented across walled gardens, which is why multi-scrobbler unifies over 30 music sources and routes every track to your chosen scrobble backends automatically. Instead of relying on brittle browser plugins per device, you configure active polling or ingress webhooks once for sources including Plex, Navidrome, Subsonic, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube Music, MPD, VLC, Chromecast, and Music Assistant. Every detected play passes through an intelligent pipeline that verifies listen duration thresholds, cleans messy track titles or featured artist tags using regex rules, and enriches missing metadata against the MusicBrainz, Spotify, or Rocksky catalogs. Before forwarding a play to Last.fm, ListenBrainz, Libre.fm, Maloja, Koito, teal.fm, Discord Now Playing, or Tuneshine, the engine checks temporal and title similarity scores to block duplicate scrobbles. When a downstream service goes offline, failed scrobbles enter a persistent retry queue so you never lose listening history, while Gotify, Ntfy, and Apprise webhooks alert you to source issues.

When a music library is full of wrong tags, missing covers, and blank ratings, Tagr lets you fix the whole collection from any browser, on desktop or phone. Three roles divide the work on your own server. Admins mount a music folder, press scan, and get a searchable table of every track, with sortable and filterable columns, more than 40 editable fields, and room for custom tags. Taggers make the changes: edit fields inline, swap album art, and match one song or a whole selection against MusicBrainz, ticking which fields to overwrite. Mistakes are cheap, because every edit is stored in a persistent change history with a revert action, viewable per song or per folder. Rule-based smart playlists, such as every track with an empty comment, show what still needs attention. Listeners browse and play without edit rights, using the waveform player, a Recently played view, and optional ListenBrainz scrobbling that each person connects to their own account. Supported formats include MP3, FLAC, WAV, AAC, OGG, M4A, M4B, WMA, AIFF, and Opus, with changes written straight back into the files. Swipe-friendly panels, an installable PWA, and five interface languages make the phone a comfortable place to work.

Spotify economics without the subscription or catalog gaps: Navidrome, the reference self-hosted music server, streams your own FLAC, MP3, and ALAC collection from a single Go binary with a React/Material UI web player. Its Subsonic/OpenSubsonic API compatibility is the superpower: 50+ existing clients work out of the box, from Symfonium and DSub on Android to Feishin and Sonixd on desktop, plus Android Auto, CarPlay, and Android TV apps. Transcoding is server-managed and FFmpeg-backed - FLAC direct-plays at home and downsamples to MP3, AAC, or Opus over mobile bandwidth, with the OpenSubsonic transcoding extension letting clients declare capabilities and receive per-track direct-play or transcode decisions automatically. Multi-user support gives every account its own play counts, favorites, ratings, and playlists, and multi-library support scopes different collections to different users. The feature list covers serious listening: Last.fm and ListenBrainz scrobbling, artist bios and images, embedded and external lyrics, audiobook bookmarks, saved play queues that resume on another device, internet radio, jukebox mode, and M3U playlist auto-import kept in sync with your folder. Resource usage is famously low - it runs happily on a Raspberry Pi and scales to six-figure track counts.

"The easiest music streaming server available" is mStream's own billing, and the claim holds up: a lightweight Node.js app that turns a folder of audio files into a private streaming service in minutes, no external database required. Its filesystem-based design is the clever part - the API mirrors your folder structure, so you can browse and play music immediately, before any library scan finishes, and your organization on disk is your organization in the app. It streams flac, mp3, wav, ogg, opus, aac, and m4a, which matters to the audiophile crowd: FLAC plays uncompressed, bit-perfect, with gapless playback for live albums and continuous mixes. The web player runs anywhere a browser does and packs personality - a Milkdrop-style visualizer (Butterchurn), playlist sharing via links, and drag-and-drop uploads straight through the file explorer. Native iOS and Android apps add the feature streaming subscriptions can't match: sync your collection to your phone for true offline playback of music you own. Multi-user support assigns separate directories and permissions per account. Resource usage is famously light - mStream is tested on multi-terabyte libraries and runs happily on a Raspberry Pi, so a small RepoCloud instance serves a lifetime's collection. GPL-licensed, with zero listening-habit telemetry.

With 4,300+ GitHub stars and native mobile apps on three platforms, Black Candy transforms any VPS into a private Spotify-style streaming service for your personal music collection. The Ruby on Rails 7 backend with Hotwire Turbo and Stimulus delivers a responsive single-page-feeling web player supporting album browsing, artist views, playlists, favorites, and queue management without full page reloads. Point it at a media directory containing MP3, FLAC, OGG, AAC, or WAV files and Black Candy indexes metadata, fetches album artwork from Discogs API, and begins streaming immediately with on-the-fly transcoding that adapts bitrate to client bandwidth. Multi-user support gives each account independent playlists, favorites, and listening history while sharing the same music library — ideal for families or shared households. Native iOS, Android, and F-Droid apps maintained as separate repositories provide offline caching, background playback, and server discovery for mobile listening. The admin panel manages user accounts, configures media paths, and sets Discogs API tokens for automatic cover art retrieval. Deployment requires one Docker command — `docker run -p 80:80 ghcr.io/blackcandy-org/blackcandy:latest` — with persistent storage volumes for the SQLite database and media directory. For larger deployments, switch to PostgreSQL via environment variables with dedicated database URLs for ActionCable, SolidQueue, and SolidCache.

Self-hosted music requests, no Lidarr install needed: DroppedNeedle searches MusicBrainz, drives your own slskd or Usenet setup, and files only verified, tagged tracks in your library. Request a whole album or a single track, then retry or cancel from a dedicated requests page. The engine queries slskd, or SABnzbd with Newznab indexers or Prowlarr, and scores every candidate before anything downloads. Files must pass checks for readable tags, a sane duration, and an optional AcoustID fingerprint match. Close calls park for admin review. Failed requests are searched again until a verified copy arrives. Quality floors per format and storage caps keep the library tidy, and better copies replace old ones. The built-in player queues Jellyfin, Navidrome, Plex, local files, and YouTube previews with shuffle, a 10-band equalizer, and embedded lyrics. Prefer your own app? Symfonium, Finamp, Feishin, and other Subsonic or Jellyfin clients connect with revocable app passwords. Discovery rows draw on ListenBrainz and Last.fm history and global charts, and a weekly mix can queue up to five missing albums. Follow artists for new-release alerts, or add Ticketmaster or Skiddle keys for gig listings in cities you choose. Import Spotify playlists, or drag in a zip of music you bought. Admin, Trusted, and User roles decide whether a request starts at once or waits for approval.

"A highly-opinionated midwestern self-hosted Discord music bot that doesn't suck," per its own README - Muse is built for servers the size of you, your friends, and your friends' friends. It exists because the big public music bots kept getting shut down or paywalled, and self-hosting yours means nobody can take it away. Written in TypeScript on discord.js, it joins voice channels and plays audio resolved from YouTube via yt-dlp, and given optional Spotify API credentials it auto-converts Spotify tracks, albums, artists, and entire playlists to playable equivalents. The playback details show real care: seeking within songs and videos, livestream support, local caching so repeated plays start instantly, volume normalization across tracks, and configurable volume controls including optional ducking that lowers music when people speak. SponsorBlock integration can skip non-music segments automatically. Users save favorite queries as reusable shortcuts, and one Muse instance serves multiple guilds simultaneously - one deployment for all your communities. Configuration is three environment variables (Discord token, YouTube API key, optional Spotify pair) and the personality is free: there is no vote-to-skip, because "this is anarchy, not a democracy," and the bot remains a loyal Green Bay Packers fan. MIT-licensed and easily extendable.

LMS is a self-hosted music server that streams your own library to any web browser or Subsonic-compatible player. Point it at a folder of tagged files and it builds a library that understands multi-valued genres and moods, composer, conductor, and producer credits, release types, and release groups that keep remasters beside the original. MusicBrainz identifiers settle duplicate artist and album names, and an artist information folder in Kodi NFO format adds biographies and portraits. Browse with filters like Electronic plus Relaxed, then switch on radio mode and the queue refills itself with similar tracks, chosen by audio similarity or by tags. Plays can be scrobbled to ListenBrainz and Last.fm, and loved tracks synchronize with ListenBrainz. Phone apps connect through the Subsonic and OpenSubsonic API with a personal API key, and transcoding trims bandwidth on slow connections. ReplayGain evens out loudness, podcasts and lyrics sit in the same interface, and an admin-only jukebox mode plays through the server's own audio output. Several libraries can live side by side, a .lmsignore file keeps unwanted folders out of scans, and logins can use the internal user database, PAM, or reverse-proxy SSO headers. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Streaming personal music collections with neural discovery and intelligent playlist curation is what Kima accomplishes as a modern self-hosted audio server that replaces Spotify and Apple Music. Listeners organize their FLAC, MP3, and AAC audio files into responsive grid layouts that scale up to eight columns on ultra-wide displays while automatically fetching album covers, artist biographies, and synchronized line-by-line lyrics. The built-in Vibe System utilizes CLAP neural network audio embeddings to map an entire music collection across two-dimensional clusters and three-dimensional interactive galaxy views, enabling users to explore acoustic relationships or queue smooth sonic paths between distant tracks. Music fans can import playlists directly from Spotify, Deezer, and YouTube using deterministic ISRC matching, while automated Made For You mixes generate era-specific playlists, workout stations, and discovery queues based on individual listening habits. Integrated podcast search pulls subscriptions from iTunes with automatic episode tracking across devices, while native Audiobookshelf connectors synchronize spoken-word chapter positions and playback progress directly into the unified web player. OpenSubsonic API endpoints allow mobile users to stream libraries through native clients like Symfonium and DSub using scoped authentication tokens, while administrators manage multi-user accounts with time-based two-factor authentication. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Point Emby at your movie, music, and photo libraries and it becomes a private streaming service: metadata and artwork arrive from TMDB and TVDB, everything lands in a polished browsable interface, and media transcodes on the fly whenever a client can't play the original format. The client reach is the selling point: native apps span Android TV, Apple TV, Google TV, Fire TV, Roku, LG and Samsung smart TVs, iOS, Android, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, plus web browsers and desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and DLNA devices are auto-detected for casting and remote control. Multi-user support gives each household member their own account, watch history, favorites, and recommendations, with genuinely capable parental controls: content restrictions, access schedules, time limits, and live monitoring with remote control of kids' sessions. Live TV works with hardware tuners like HDHomeRun or M3U playlists, with free guide data in the US, Canada, and UK. The server and core features are free; an optional Premiere key adds hardware-accelerated transcoding, DVR recording, offline sync, and Cinema Mode intros.

Maloja's one job is to be your own scrobble database, charting what you listen to from a server you control. Players and media servers that speak the native JSON API or a ListenBrainz, GNU FM, or Audioscrobbler 1.2 compatible protocol can scrobble with their own API keys. Vinyl sessions and background music can be logged by hand on a manual scrobble page. Existing history moves in from a Last.fm export, a Spotify data export, a ListenBrainz export, or another Maloja instance, while a proxy option forwards new scrobbles to Last.fm or a second Maloja server. The start page ranks top artists, tracks, and albums for today, this week, this month, this year, or all time, alongside a pulse chart of listening volume and a feed of the latest scrobbles. Artist and album pages add performance charts that follow chart position over time. Collaborations credit every artist on a track, and subunits, solo projects, and main acts can be combined or separated in charts at any time. Gold, Platinum, and Diamond awards mark tracks and albums that pass scrobble thresholds you set. Artwork can come from Last.fm, Spotify, Deezer, TheAudioDB, or MusicBrainz lookups, or from images you upload yourself. Week start, timezone, theme, and tile layout are all settings, and an API explorer lists endpoints for scripts.
