NymphCast is an open-source audio and video casting system that turns Linux-capable hardware such as a Raspberry Pi into a network media receiver for TVs or powered speakers. It includes a client library and SDK, player apps for desktop and Android, and supports AngelScript-based server apps for extending functionality.

Use cases

  • cast music from my phone to speakers connected to a Raspberry Pi
  • stream video to a TV over the local network
  • self-hosted alternative to Chromecast
  • build a multi-room audio system with my own hardware
  • add casting support to my own app via an SDK
  • extend a media receiver with custom apps for online services

When to choose

  • you want an open-source, self-hosted casting solution on your own hardware
  • you use Raspberry Pi or other Linux-capable devices as receivers
  • you need a client SDK to integrate casting into custom applications

When to avoid

  • you need polished, plug-and-play consumer casting like Chromecast or AirPlay
  • you require wide codec/DRM support for commercial streaming services
  • you need a fully stable production system, since some features are experimental
