Your media. Your server.
Vidalune shows your own movies and series beautifully, in your browser and in the Android app. It runs on the computer or NAS you already have, and your files never leave home.
Everything you need, nothing you don't
Your library, beautifully
Posters, artwork, cast and descriptions are added by themselves. Continue watching, watchlist, favorites, collections and search from anywhere.
Runs on old hardware
Vidalune never converts video. Your device plays the original file directly, so even an old computer or a small NAS is enough.
Web and Android app
Watch in any modern browser, install it as an app, or use the Vidalune app on Android phones and tablets.
Skip intros and credits
Intros and end credits of series are found automatically, so the next episode starts when you want it to.
Share with your household
Give everyone their own account and choose which libraries they see. Each person keeps their own progress and lists.
Watch anywhere
With remote access you open your server on app.vidalune.com and in the app, from anywhere. Vidalune provides an automatic server address; one port must be reachable for video away from home.
How it works
Install on your server
One command on Linux, or a ready compose file for Docker. Point Vidalune at your movie and series folders.
Create your Vidalune account
Link your server to your account in Admin → Vidalune account. The people you share with connect their own Vidalune account in Settings.
Watch at home and away
At home everything is free. Away from home, remote access and a directly reachable server address are required for video.
Free at home. Remote access when you want it.

Questions
Does Vidalune see my media?
No. Your files stay on your server. Vidalune's services only know your email address and, per linked server, its name, version, observed public IP and connection status. Video streams directly from your server; the account tunnel carries controls only.
What do I need?
A computer or NAS that is always on, with Docker, and your movies and series in folders on it. Vidalune needs very little: it never transcodes video.
Do I need to open ports on my router?
At home, no. To watch away from home, manually forward one TCP port to your server and enter that public port in its admin page. Vidalune provides the secure server address automatically, so you do not need your own domain.
Can I share my server?
Yes. Make accounts for your household on your server; with remote access they can watch from anywhere too.
