I'm interested in your suggestions/experience regarding multimedia tools for streaming audio and possibly also video via LAN (mostly WiFi), played back on multiple client machines, with little to no latency.

LMS has many plugins to serve local files or internet streams. There might be one to send local audio to it. The squeezelite client has really good synchronization. Aside from the builtin web interface, there is an open-source Android app (Squeezer) to control the server to choose the music for individual clients and to sync the clients.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try it out! The wiki pages are quite extensive, I'm reading through some of it right now...
Btw, I don't see LMS packaged for Fedora in the standard repositories (nor rpmfusion). I don't mind using the source (it's mostly Perl, anyway), but just to check --- is it packaged in any of the repos I'm unaware of?
Thanks, :-) Marko
