OpenFlix: Video Player

OpenFlix is a modern, privacy-first, fully open-source local media player designed to bring a premium streaming-style experience to the videos already stored on your device. Say goodbye to messy file lists and ad-interrupted playback. OpenFlix scans and organizes your local media library into a clean, intuitive layout with individual profiles, automatic title cleanup, and seamless PC casting. WHY CHOOSE OPENFLIX? • 100% Free & Open Source: No advertisements, no trackers, no premium paywalls, and no hidden subscriptions. • Local-First Privacy: Your media stays entirely on your device. OpenFlix does not host, upload, or stream files to external servers. All watch history and settings are stored privately on your phone. • Powered by Media3 / ExoPlayer: Enjoy hardware-accelerated, stutter-free playback across modern video and audio formats. CORE FEATURES • Multi-Profile Support: Set up individual profiles for family members or different viewing moods. Each profile keeps its own isolated watch progress, resume points, and playback history. • Automatic Title Formatting: Messy file names (scene tags, resolutions, release formats) are automatically parsed into clean, recognizable movie and show titles. • Rich Metadata with TMDB (Optional): Provide your own free TMDB API key to instantly fetch movie posters, backdrops, plot summaries, release years, and genre tags. • Resume Playback: Pick up right where you left off across movies and episodic content. • Description on Pause: Need a refresher? Pausing your media displays a contextual overview and plot summary without cluttering your screen during active playback. • Advanced Playback Controls: Adjust playback speed, switch audio tracks, toggle subtitles, and jump through chapters with smooth gesture scrubbing. • Instant Search: Quickly find movies and series by title, genre, or release year across your local storage. PLAY ON PC & MOBILE REMOTE OpenFlix extends beyond your phone. Using our open-source companion apps for Windows and Linux (powered by LibVLC), you can cast playback directly to your computer screen over your local Wi-Fi or mobile hotspot. Use your Android device as a full-featured remote to pause, scrub, and adjust volume while watching on the big screen. NOTE ON CONTENT: OpenFlix is an offline media manager and player. It does not provide, host, or link to any streaming media. Users must provide their own legally obtained local content. Source code available on GitHub: https://github.com/caleb-ms/openflix
