FireFly Media Server

Welcome to the original Firefly Media Server.

To all all those that are still using or had used [as I did] created by Ron Pedde, development stopped many years ago and despite myself trying to get people involved, there was no commitment in developing it further. 

There is a new release which is a complete re-write of the forked-daaped and has a network of contributors including ejurgensen who has taken this on seemingly.

OwnTone is a Linux/FreeBSD DAAP (iTunes), MPD (Music Player Daemon) and RSP (Roku) media server. It supports AirPlay devices/speakers, Apple Remote (and compatibles), MPD clients, Chromecast, network streaming, internet radio, Spotify and LastFM. It does not support streaming video by AirPlay nor Chromecast.

The following are also varying versions but are not active on Github any longer.

At the end of the day everything has moved on and we are 6 years ahead with many many technology leaps in this area. If your still using it, I hope this helps, if not then I hope your listening to music the way you want to!

In conclusion our thanks go to all the Firefly Community and in particular Ron for starting this project all those years ago and to those who tried to tweak it and keep it alive and go and try the OwnTone Server!
