iksteen/kahawai
Your personal media streaming service.
Kahawai is a self-hosted media streaming server written in Rust that serves movies, series, anime, and music from your own library. It runs as an all-in-one container or split hub/mediahost/transcoder roles, uses GStreamer with smart direct-play/remux/transcode decisions, SQLite for state, a built-in web UI, and automatic intro/credits detection with community skip times.
Why now: It was recently mentioned on Mastodon as an open-source, modular media system, and development is active, drawing comparisons to self-hosted media servers like Jellyfin or Plex.
Who it is for: Self-hosters and home-lab users who want to stream their personal media collections with fine-grained control over transcoding and deployment.
