CineMoy 0.2.0

CineMoy v0.2.0 — Play, Sync & Updates 🎬

A big update: one-click playback, subtitle sync on Android TV, automatic updates, an important fix for TV boxes, and CineMoy is now available for macOS and Linux.

✨ What's new

🖥 Now on macOS and Linux

• macOS: for Apple Silicon (M1–M4) and Intel Macs.
• Linux: an AppImage for any distribution, plus a .deb package for Ubuntu and Debian.
• Same app as on Windows: catalog, built-in streaming engine and Farsi subtitles.

▶ One-click Play

• Every title now has a Play button. CineMoy picks the best source for you: your preferred quality, plenty of seeders, a format your device can play, and no foreign-dubbed or oversized files.
• The full source list is still there if you want to choose yourself; the automatic pick is marked ★ Best pick.
• Resume continues from where you stopped, using the same source.
• The next episode of a series automatically uses the same release as the previous one.
• New setting: Quality for the Play button (1080p, 4K or 720p).

💬 Smarter Farsi subtitles

• Subtitles are now ranked by how well they match the video file. A subtitle made for the same release is almost always in sync from the start.
• Matching subtitles are marked ✓ Matches this video.

📺 Better Android & Android TV player

• Subtitle sync: shift subtitles earlier or later in 0.5-second steps, live, with the TV remote.
• One Subtitles menu lists both online subtitles and subtitles inside the video file.
• Reach Subtitles and Sync by pressing Up on the remote. The CC and Menu buttons also open the subtitle menu.
• Download speed and peer count are shown while the player controls are visible.

🔄 Automatic update check

• CineMoy checks for new versions and shows what's new.
• Android / Android TV: downloads the right version for your device and opens the installer. No browser needed.
• Windows: opens the correct download in your browser.
• You can also check manually in ⚙ Settings.

🔒 Desktop: private by default

• The desktop app now only serves your own computer.
• To let a TV or phone on your Wi-Fi use your computer for streaming, turn on Share with TVs and phones on my network in ⚙ Settings. The addresses to open on your TV are shown there.

🛠 Fixes & reliability

• Fixed: large movies failed to play on many Android TV boxes. On 32-bit devices, videos over 2 GB became corrupted while downloading ("Playback failed: ...MALFORMED"). This affected v0.1.0 too, so updating is strongly recommended.
• The engine no longer stops because of an error from a single torrent. On Android, if the engine ever stops, CineMoy restarts itself.
• When storage is almost full, CineMoy stops downloading ahead but keeps playing what you're watching.
• Remote control: pressing Down from the top menu now goes straight to Continue watching.

Not sure which Mac you have? Apple menu → About This Mac: "Chip: Apple M…" means Apple Silicon, "Processor: Intel" means Intel.

Updating from 0.1.0: install the new file over the old one. Your settings and watch progress are kept. Automatic update checks start from this version on.

🚀 Installing

Windows: run the installer. If SmartScreen warns, choose More info → Run anyway.

macOS:

1. Open the .dmg and drag CineMoy into Applications.
2. The app isn't signed by Apple yet, so macOS may say it "is damaged" or "can't be opened". To allow it, open Terminal once and run:

   xattr -cr /Applications/CineMoy.app
   

3. Open CineMoy from Applications.

Linux:

• AppImage: right-click → Properties → Allow executing as program (or chmod +x CineMoy-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage), then double-click it.
• Ubuntu / Debian: sudo apt install ./cinemoy_0.2.0_amd64.deb, then open CineMoy from your app menu.

Android TV: enable Install unknown apps for the Downloader app, open cinemoy.fun in Downloader, and choose your download.

⚠️ Known limitations

• macOS and Linux builds are new and haven't been tested on real machines yet. Please report any problems on GitHub.

• macOS and Linux check for updates but don't install them yet; they open the right download in your browser.

• On desktop, some HEVC/x265 files, or files with AC3/DTS audio, need ffmpeg installed for compatibility mode:

  • Windows: winget install ffmpeg
  • macOS: brew install ffmpeg
  • Linux: sudo apt install ffmpeg

  Or pick a source without a "may not play" badge.

• The Windows and macOS apps aren't code-signed yet, so the first launch shows a warning (see Installing).

• Streaming speed depends on the torrent's peers. If a source is slow, choose one with more seeders.

CineMoy 0.1.0

CineMoy v0.1.0 — First release 🎬

The first public version of CineMoy: browse movies and series, stream them from Torrentio, and watch with Farsi subtitles on Windows, Android phones and Android TV.

✨ Highlights

• Browse and stream: popular movies and series, genres, search and full episode lists (Cinemeta catalog). Sources come from Torrentio, sorted by quality and seeders.
• Built-in streaming engine: torrents play while they download, with seeking. No separate server needed on Windows or Android.
• Farsi subtitles, automatically: found on OpenSubtitles and SubDL and listed in the player. The best Farsi one turns on by itself. Old Windows-1256 files are fixed automatically, and text displays right-to-left.
• Native player on Android: ExoPlayer with an FFmpeg decoder handles HEVC/x265, 4K/HDR, AC3/E-AC3, DTS and TrueHD audio.
• Made for the couch: a Fire TV-style home screen with a large banner and rows of titles, fully usable with a TV remote.
• Continue watching: resume where you left off; series auto-play the next episode.
• Debrid support: paste a Torrentio link configured with Real-Debrid, AllDebrid or Premiumize for instant streams.

Platform	File	Notes
Windows 10/11 (64-bit)	CineMoy Setup 0.1.0.exe	Installer
Windows 10/11 (64-bit)	CineMoy-0.1.0-portable.exe	No install needed
Android phone / Google TV / newer Android TVs	app-arm64-v8a-release.apk	Recommended for most devices
Android TV boxes & sticks (32-bit)	app-armeabi-v7a-release.apk	Use if the arm64 APK won't install
Any Android device	app-universal-release.apk	Larger; use if unsure

Requirements: Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit); Android 7.0 or newer.

🚀 Getting started

1. Windows: run the installer or the portable version. Windows SmartScreen may warn because the app isn't signed yet: choose More info → Run anyway.
2. Android TV: turn on Install unknown apps (Settings → Device Preferences → Security), then install the APK with the Downloader app, Send Files to TV or a USB drive.
3. Recommended: add a free SubDL API key in ⚙ Settings (subdl.com/panel/api) for many more Farsi subtitles.
4. Optional: paste your own Torrentio configuration link in ⚙ Settings to set quality filters or a debrid service.

⚠️ Known limitations

• The Android player doesn't have subtitle sync (±) adjustment yet. Windows does.
• On Windows, some HEVC/x265 files, or files with AC3/DTS audio, may not play or may have no sound. Install ffmpeg (winget install ffmpeg) to turn on automatic conversion, or pick an x264 source.
• Streaming speed depends on the torrent's peers. If a source stalls, choose one with more seeders.
• Apps are fairly large (55–90 MB) because each includes its own streaming engine and video decoders.

🔒 Notes

• The streaming engine runs only on your device; on Android it can't be reached from other devices on your network.
• What you stream is your responsibility: only watch content you have the right to access in your country.
