    Synchronous multiroom audio player

  • Iris

    Discover, explore and manage your music library across multiple sources with this beautiful web-based interface. Iris is a Mopidy frontend extension. (by jaedb)

  • Snapcast is awesome, especially when bundled together with Iris and Mopidy [1], which included links to Youtube, Soundcloud, Funkwhale, podcasts, streams (etc). I wrote a blog post on how to build a small Raspi Zero Image for Snapcast [2] that directly connects to the Snapserver included in (e.g.) the Iris Docker [3]. I added a modified Docker Image for Iris that includes the Funkwhale extension here [4]. Works flawlessly since 2 years, almost zero maintenance and great music experience. My synchronized Snapcast extents through several rooms and two houses (120km apart), through IPSEC with a very small bandwidth (5000kbit up). Many thanks to all the maintainers of this stunning stack of OSS.
