Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source music player for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android that combines device files, an optional personal server, and online sources in one library.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-06 issue.

For: Listeners managing music across devices
Worth noticing: The updater checks downloads against published SHA-256 sums and asks before installing; macOS and Linux installers are not yet published.

Field notes

Search can span enabled sources, while playback prioritizes an existing device copy before checking the user's server or an online source. The page describes iTunes-based artwork and metadata matching, with karaoke and tribute recordings excluded, and says playlists prevent duplicate entries. Server setup uses Docker Compose; the page also notes that macOS and Linux packaged installers are not yet published.
