Is it better than Plex ?
Report
@elie_teyssedou I was going to say the same thing. Plex is incredibly well done and mature. It has apps for web, AppleTV, Playstation, Roku, iOS, Android and anywhere else you would want to watch movies. This looks like a very basic version of Plex.

@elie_teyssedou This is much clunkier than Plex. It is a self hosted web application where you can easily add new shows from scrobbled data, but you have to upload to that web application every media you acquire you-know-how, file by file, episode by episode.
The only feature that Plex needs to steal ASAP is the synced watching for remote watching parties. It also needs (or maybe doesn't need) voice-chat for shared comments and laughs.

@apoapostolov You're right, the synced watching is a great feature. I used to this with friends. It's kinda funny, but when it come to pause the movie... it becomes tricky.

@elie_teyssedou It is completely open source under the MIT License. I think this is pretty awesome and a big advantage over Plex.
@rfreling Well only the backend controllers are written in Java/Groovy. Thats 8,8% of the total code. The frontend is written in JavaScript with angular.
@rfreling The Java/Groovy part of the code seems extremely organized and well-written. I believe it wouldn't be hard to port it to Golang or another "non-RAM-eater" language.
I hope it will not promote piracy to next level...

@cndyymn piracy is promoted due to industry not changing fast enough. Since Apple TV, I barely download movies. When I did download them, it was due to the fact I wanted it now and in a file format rather than a DVD or waiting. But yes some people want things for free. I wonder what would be the buy rate of those who pirate.

@cndyymn@evivz This is like Plex, except web-based only.

Is it just me or is the font used for the installation process crap?
