Movies & Shows · Just Yours. No Limits.
myplayer points at the folders you already keep your films and series in, works out what is in them, and fetches the covers, backdrops, ratings and synopses from TMDB. What you get back is a home screen instead of a file listing — and a player that goes fullscreen and gets out of the way. It is an experiment, not a competitor to the players you already have.

What it does
Picks up where you stopped
The home screen opens on Continue watching, with recently added films and seasons beside it. Positions are kept per title, so a film you left halfway is still halfway next week.
Scans and matches by itself
Register a folder as a movie or show library and the scanner reads titles, years, seasons and episode numbers off the filenames, then looks each one up. Whatever it gets wrong you can match by hand.
Series, season by season
Shows break down into seasons and episodes with their own artwork and descriptions. Watched episodes are marked, and the next one is queued when the current one runs out.
Watchlists
Put anything aside for later, from the library or straight from a TMDB search, and it waits on its own tab.
Frames go straight to the GPU
FFmpeg hands over YUV planes and a wgpu shader does the colour conversion on the way to the screen, so nothing is converted frame by frame on the CPU first.
Nothing on top of the film
Playback is fullscreen with no chrome: space pauses, M mutes, escape comes back to the library. Audio tracks — multi-channel included — switch mid-film, and the screensaver is held off while something plays.
