Features of VidHub
VidHub plays videos in common formats, connects to network storage and media servers, and keeps your library in order. Below is what each part of the app does and when it helps.
Video playback
The app plays MKV, AVI, MP4, MOV, RMVB, WMV and other common video formats, in resolutions up to HD, 4K and HDR. Files open directly, in the quality they were saved in.
This helps when videos come from different sources, such as a camera, a download, or an old archive, and the collection has no single format.
Subtitles
The app plays built-in subtitle tracks and external files in SRT, SSA and SUB formats. Subtitles can be turned on or off during playback.
This helps when watching a film in another language, or in a quiet room where the volume has to stay low.
Network sources
Videos can be opened over SMB/CIFS and WebDAV, straight from a network drive or a shared folder.
This helps when the collection lives on home storage: there is no need to copy files to the device first.
Media servers
The app connects to Emby, Jellyfin, Plex and fnOS. Once a server is added, its library can be browsed in the app.
This helps when a home media server already stores the whole collection.
Library
The built-in library sorts videos by type, date and rating. Cloud files can be renamed or deleted without leaving the app.
Descriptions and artwork are taken from TMDB, a community-maintained database of movies and TV shows.
