The dmapd project provides a GObject-based, Open Source implementation
of DMAP sharing with the following features:
o Support for both DAAP and DPAP
o Support for realtime transcoding of media formats not natively
supported by clients
o Support for many metadata formats, such as those associated with Ogg
Vorbis and MP3 (e.g., ID3)
o Detection of video streams so that clients may play them as video
o Use of GStreamer to support a wide range of audio and video CODECs
o Caching of photograph thumbnails to avoid regenerating them each time
the server restarts
Dmapd runs on Linux and other POSIX operating systems. It has been
used on OpenWrt Linux-based systems with as little as 32MB of memory
to serve music, video and photograph libraries containing thousands of
files.
