Supported clients
-----------------
forked-daapd supports streaming to AirPlay devices (like the AirPort Express,
Shairport and various AirPlay speakers).
forked-daapd supports 4 kinds of clients:
Like iTunes, you can control forked-daapd with Apple Remote, or with a
compatible Android app like Retune, TunesRemote+ or Hyperfine Remote. Another
controller is TunesRemoteSE, which is based on Java and runs in Windows, MacOS
and Linux.
- DAAP clients, like iTunes or Rhythmbox
- Remote clients, like Apple Remote or compatibles for Android/Windows Phone
- AirPlay devices, like AirPort Express, Shairport and various AirPlay speakers
- RSP clients, like Roku Soundbridge
forked-daapd supports iTunes clients as well as a number of devices similar
to the SoundBridge.
It should be able to serve your media library to any client supporting DAAP
or RSP.
Like iTunes, you can control forked-daapd with Remote and stream your music
to AirPlay devices.
A single forked-daapd instance can handle several clients concurrently,
regardless of the protocol.
Here is a list of working and non-working DAAP and Remote clients. The list is
probably obsolete when you read it :-)
