Audioserve
Host your personal audiobook collection using a lightweight server that respects your existing folder structure. Enjoy cross-device syncing and fast transcoding.
Host your personal audio collection with a lightweight server designed specifically for audiobooks. Instead of relying on messy audio tags, it uses your existing folder structure to organize media. Simply point it to your directories, and your collection becomes instantly accessible through a modern web interface.
Built for performance, it handles large libraries effortlessly by utilizing an embedded caching system for fast searches. Listen on the go without worrying about data limits thanks to on-the-fly audio transcoding, which converts files to bandwidth-friendly formats.
Key benefits include:
- Cross-device syncing: Share playback positions across multiple devices so you never lose your place.
- Chapter support: Automatically handles
.m4bfiles and extracts chapter metadata for easy navigation. - Secure access: Protect your library with shared secret authentication and TLS/SSL support.
- Low resource usage: Written in Rust for minimal CPU and memory consumption.
