AudioCheck
Your MP3s, M4B audiobooks, and lectures already live in Files. AudioCheck indexes folders you choose, streams with live permission checks, and keeps a persistent player while you browse Nextcloud.
What it does
AudioCheck turns folders you already have into a clear library with a persistent player. Every stream and cover goes through live file permission checks — nothing is uploaded elsewhere.
Music library
Tracks, albums, folders, search, and sort — separate roots for music and audiobooks.
Continue listening
Home shelf, dashboard widget, saved progress per file, and a durable cross-device playback queue.
Playlists & Favorites
Built-in Favorites synced with Files stars plus manual playlists you create.
Chapters, speed & formats
Chapter jumps on .m4b and tagged files; MP3, M4A, M4B, and MP4 audio; 0.5×–4.0× playback speed.
Files integration
Play in AudioCheck and play folder as album directly from the Files app.
Security by design
Single file-access gate, uniform 404 for inaccessible files, no outbound HTTP for playback.
Accessible UI
WCAG 2.1 AA foundations: skip link, keyboard shortcuts, screen-reader live regions.
