A Python implementation of an AirPlay 2 receiver that can accept audio streams from Apple devices and other AirPlay senders. It supports HomeKit pairing, FairPlay v3 authentication, multiple audio codecs, and some multi-room features.
Use cases
- turn a raspberry pi into an airplay 2 speaker
- receive airplay audio streams on linux
- build a multi-room audio receiver in python
- stream music from iphone to a diy speaker
- implement an airplay 2 receiver endpoint
- decode alac aac opus airplay streams
When to choose
- you want a software AirPlay 2 receiver on Linux, macOS, Windows, or Raspberry Pi
- you need FairPlay v3 decryption or HomeKit pairing in Python
- you want to experiment with AirPlay 2 protocol internals or multi-room audio
When to avoid
- you need accurate audio sync via PTP/NTP, which is not yet implemented
- you require FairPlay v2 or MFi authentication support
- you need a production-grade, fully spec-compliant AirPlay receiver rather than an experimental implementation
