Web UI

The interface is built as a Progressive Web App (PWA) — it can be "installed" from the browser and is available in German and English (language switcher at the bottom of the sidebar, stored per user).

The search bar on the home page queries, depending on the selected source:
- AniWorld — anime search via the aniworld.to API
- serienstream.to — series search via serienstream.to
- FilmPalast — movie search via the autocomplete API; result URLs are validated automatically (umlauts in titles are handled)
- MegaKino — movie & series search via the megakino.to JSON API
- hanime — adult (18+) search; only queried when the source is enabled

Providers offered are the active hosts (currently VOE, Vidmoly, Vidoza, VeeV) — the app probes at startup which extractors are actually functional.
The statistics page (/stats) aggregates download, queue and sync metrics — completed downloads, episodes, movies, failures, last 24 h, average duration and average speed (click the speed card for per-download details), plus a queue-status, source and per-language breakdown.
When Media statistics is enabled in Settings → General, an extra Media category appears, sourced from the Library and kept current by its file watcher:
- Movies (total), Series (total), Series (complete), Series (incomplete) and Episode count.
-
Series (incomplete) is clickable and opens a modal listing every series with gaps — missing episodes inside a season or a missing season — together with the location and the missing slots (e.g.
S1E3, S2).
Completeness is determined purely from the local library by detecting numbering gaps; a series that is only missing its newest, not-yet-released/-downloaded episodes (no gap) counts as complete.
The Favourites page (/favourites) holds your per-user series bookmarks. Add a series to your favourites from a series page; each user has their own list. Use it as a quick shortlist of series you follow or want to start.
Anime and series can be watched directly in the browser — either from a downloaded file (Library) or streamed straight from the provider without downloading.
Each episode in the search/series view has a play (▶) button. Clicking it streams the episode immediately:
- The app resolves the provider stream and, for HLS sources, proxies the provider's native playlist/segments through the server (passing only the required headers) — no FFmpeg, no re-encode, smooth playback and instant seeking.
- If the source is not HLS, it automatically falls back to a server-side HLS transcode (FFmpeg).
- Language and provider can be changed live from a small bar inside the player; the stream re-resolves and continues at the current position.
The playback position is stored per user. Reopening a partly-watched title (downloaded or streamed) offers Resume (at the saved time) or Start over.
The player has a Watch Together button that joins a Syncplay room. Play/pause/seek are synchronised with everyone else in the room — including people using the Syncplay desktop app with mpv/VLC, because the server speaks the real Syncplay protocol. The Syncplay server is configured under Settings → Syncplay.
Admins can enable a read-only Web Console under Settings → General that mirrors the live application/FFmpeg console output directly in the browser — handy for diagnosing a stream or download without shell access.
