MQS Streaming Server
MQS Streaming Server is a home network audio streaming media server designed to capture, encode and stream audio files across a local network. It functions as a personal media streaming solution, allowing users to centralise their audio collection on a dedicated server and access it remotely from other devices on the network. The application targets users who want a lightweight, self-hosted alternative to cloud-based music streaming services.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionMQS Streaming Server appears to be a legacy application with no recent development activity and no publicly available native Apple Silicon build. The bundle ID suggests it originates from iriver, a mobile device manufacturer that largely exited the portable media player market in the early 2010s. Given that we are now in May 2026 — more than two years before Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028) — you have time to plan a transition. If this server remains important to your workflow, contact the vendor directly to ask whether a native build is planned; if not, research modern alternatives like Plex, Jellyfin, or Subsonic, which are actively maintained, offer native Apple Silicon support, and provide more comprehensive media-streaming features. These alternatives also support broader device ecosystems and more flexible access controls than legacy streaming servers.
