The server web app: every page

Home

Continue watching (pick up where you stopped on any device) and Recently added. On TVs the web app switches to a remote-friendly layout automatically.

Language

The web app follows your browser's language — English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch or Portuguese. Anyone can choose a different one: Settings → Language (or the 🌐 menu under the sign-in box). The choice is kept on that device, so each person in the house can use their own language.

Films

Every film as a poster wall, with Play all and Shuffle. Several copies of the same film (for example 1080p and 4K) appear once; choose the version on the film page.

The film page

• Plot, tagline, year, rating, score, genres, director and cast (from .nfo files, tags or online details).
• Play or Resume, Versions, and Trailers & extras.
• Add to playlist, Download the original, or Download a smaller copy (1080p, 720p or 480p) made by your server.
• Admins: Mark intro & credits, so Skip Intro and Skip Credits appear for everyone.

TV Shows

Shows, then seasons and episodes in order. Autoplay moves on to the next episode; Skip Intro and Skip Credits appear when marked.

The player

• Play/pause, seek with previews of the picture, chapters, audio and subtitle tracks, speed.
• Quality: Auto adapts to the connection; Data saver caps it; the bandwidth panel shows what's used.
• Skip Intro / Skip Credits, sleep timer, switch version (keeps your place), watch together.
• Resume rewinds 5 seconds so you don't miss a line.
