MediaServer

Folder-first self-hosted media server for mixed, personal video/audio collections with a YouTube-like UI.

Webfreeglobal

A lightweight, self-hosted media player that scans folders on a home server or NAS and serves video and audio through a minimalist, YouTube-style web interface with customizable metadata. It is aimed at owners of mixed or highly customized personal collections who want fast folder-oriented browsing without forcing a commercial, metadata-first library model; it supports self-hosting (including Docker) and is AGPL-3.0 licensed.
