Before you switch
Media servers live or die by transcoding performance and library organisation. Check the hardware-acceleration support for your GPU or NAS, and test with a small library first. Most tools scan standard folder structures automatically, so tidy naming pays off quickly.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, SonaShow is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
