Welcome to LibreTime
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
LibreTime makes it easy to run your own online or terrestrial radio station.
|
|
Don't believe us? Check out our [Quick Install](quickstart) page to see just how easy it is to install and use LibreTime!
|
|
|
|
Some of LibreTime's main features include:
|
|
|
|
* *Web-based remote station management* - authorized personnel can add
|
|
programme material, create playlists or smart blocks, and stream in live,
|
|
all via a web interface.
|
|
* *Automation* - LibreTime has a scheduler function that enables users to
|
|
create shows with content for playback at the exact date and time specified.
|
|
Playlists, smart blocks and remote stream URLs can be used multiple times.
|
|
* *Solid playout* - LibreTime uses the open source Liquidsoap streaming language
|
|
for reliable and precise playback to multiple outputs.
|
|
* *Open source* - run LibreTime royalty-free, make changes to the code, and contribute to the project as you see fit, under the GNU AGPLv3 license.
|
|
* *Multilingual* - supports over 15 languages both in the interface and inside file metadata
|
|
* *Low system requirements*
|
|
* For servers: 1Ghz processor, 2 GB RAM, and a wired ethernet connection with a static IP address
|
|
* For end-users: a modern version of Firefox, Chrome, or Safari, and a screen resolution of at least 1280x768

LibreTime is a fork of AirTime due to stalled development of the FLOSS version. For background on this, see this [open letter to the Airtime community](https://gist.github.com/hairmare/8c03b69c9accc90cfe31fd7e77c3b07d).

|
|
We have a number of [how-to guides](tutorials) that contain step-by-step instructions for various common tasks for both end users and administrators.
|
|
|
|
There are currently no companies offering turn-key LibreTime hosting so if you are interested in running it you will need to have some familiarity with running a Linux server.
