VOD & Series

ynoTV includes a high-performance, native Rust engine specifically optimized for synchronizing and browsing massive VOD (Video on Demand) libraries.

Native VOD Sync Engine

Section titled “Native VOD Sync Engine”

The latest version of ynoTV features a rewritten synchronization engine that eliminates latency bottlenecks when handling large providers.

Lightning Fast

Synchronize over 190,000+ VOD items in under 15 seconds.

Low Resource Usage

Optimized data parsing and bulk database insertion for minimal CPU and memory impact.

Browsing Movies & Series

Section titled “Browsing Movies & Series”

Access your VOD content directly from the sidebar or via the dedicated Movies and Series views.

Features

Section titled “Features”
  • Smart Metadata: Automatic integration with TMDB for posters, ratings, and plot summaries.
  • Search & Discovery: Instantly find any title across all your connected sources.

Category Management

Section titled “Category Management”

Streamline your VOD browsing experience by organizing which content categories appear in your Movies and Series views.

Access Method : Right-click any source in the Movies or Series view and select Manage VOD Categories

Hide Categories : Selectively disable categories to exclude them from your browsing interface. Hidden categories will not display content in category views and their items will be excluded from search results, providing a cleaner, more focused content discovery experience.

Progress Tracking

Section titled “Progress Tracking”

Maintain your viewing history automatically with the Recently Watched feature, which tracks playback progress across all movies and series.

Tracking Mechanism : Progress is automatically saved to the Recently Watched list on both the Home page and the Recent tab

Update Frequency : - Automatic updates every 30 seconds during active playback

  • Immediate save when pressing Stop or switching to Live TV

Progress Threshold : Watch progress is only recorded when viewing is between 5% and 95% completion. This prevents saving entries for briefly sampled content while ensuring significant viewing sessions are tracked

VOD and Series browsing is currently supported for:

  • Xtream Codes (Native API support)
  • Stalker Portals
  • Local M3U Playlists (Partial support via groups)
