What is Saltbox?
Saltbox is an Ansible and Docker based solution for rapidly deploying a cloud media server using LTS releases of Ubuntu Server 20.04 or 22.04, running on AMD64. Non-LTS releases of Ubuntu or Desktop installs are not supported. Linux distributions other than Ubuntu are not supported. ARM processors, Raspberry Pi notably, are not supported.
Primary functions are: the automatic acquisition of media, being able to play it back from anywhere and from any device, and to a lesser extent storing that media on the cloud.
NOTE: Saltbox does not have a dashboard or GUI of its own. All Saltbox-specific setup and commands are done on the Linux command-line.
