mStream is open source software for syncing and streaming music between devices. It is a self-hosted music server that runs on a computer the user owns, including old hardware and boards like the Raspberry Pi. Streams can include FLAC and lossless files, and the server is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Raspberry Pi and NAS boxes, with Docker and source install options.
Rockbox is a free replacement firmware for digital music players. It runs on a range of players, including Apple iPods, SanDisk Sansa models, iRiver devices and others. Ports are classified as stable, unstable or unusable. USB charging and USB support are not available on every player, and dual-booting into the original firmware may be required.
Themes is the official repository for custom visual themes for the Rockbox open-source media player firmware. The site hosts downloadable themes for a wide range of supported Rockbox-compatible devices, allows users to upload their own custom themes following published guidelines, and notes that some themes require the optional Rockbox font pack to function correctly. Themes can be installed via the Rockbox Utility tool or downloaded manually.
Koel is an open-source music streaming server that lets users host and stream their own music. It includes media management for uploads and metadata, Subsonic and OpenSubsonic API support, and iOS and Android apps. The Community version remains free and open-source; a paid Koel Plus version adds features such as individual libraries and storage drivers.
