Media Server Pro

Stream from your Mac to your TV — in seconds.
No setup. No subscriptions. Just pick a folder and hit play.

Media Server Pro turns your Mac into a simple, lightweight DLNA media server. Stream movies, music, and photos to any compatible device on your home network — including smart TVs, game consoles, phones, tablets, and works great with apps like VLC.

Why Media Server Pro?

  • No complicated setup — start streaming instantly
  • DLNA/UPnP compatible — "just works" with most devices
  • Fast & lightweight — no bloat, no ads
  • No subscriptions — just a one-time purchase
  • Private & secure — everything stays on your local network

A Simple Plex/Serviio Alternative for Mac

Looking for an alternative to Plex or Serviio? Media Server Pro offers a simpler approach to home media streaming. Unlike Plex, there's no account required, no cloud sync, and no subscription fees.

  • Simplified setup — no server configuration or complex settings to navigate
  • No account or login required — Plex and Serviio require managing accounts; Media Server Pro doesn't
  • No subscription fees — one-time purchase vs Plex Pass & Serviio's recurring costs
  • Lightweight — runs quietly in your menu bar without consuming system resources
  • Native Mac app — built with SwiftUI, designed specifically for macOS

If you've been searching for a macOS Plex or Serviio replacement that "just works", Media Server Pro is the answer.

Compatible With:

  • Smart TVs (Samsung, LG, Sony, etc.)
  • Game consoles (Xbox, PlayStation)
  • VLC Media Player (Android, iOS, PC, Mac, Linux, Smart TVs)
  • Kodi and any other DLNA/UPnP media players

How it works:

  1. Start Media Server Pro on your Mac, and select directories containing the media you wish to share.
  2. On your TV or console, open your media player app. On most smart TVs you can select "Media Server" as an input device.
  3. Media Server Pro will show up as a network device, allowing you to browse and stream content.

Perfect for anyone who wants to stream their media library without the hassle. Media Server Pro makes it effortless.
