Serviio - free DLNA media server for Windows, Mac and Linux

Media Streaming Server

About Us

Serviio is developed by Petr Nejedly, who currently lives in London and works as a freelance Java consultant.

Serviio uses some open-source libraries without which it would not have been possible. I would like to thank all the people who contributed to them.
