A self-hosted media server for films, series and documentaries, with music and ebooks on desktop and web. Native apps for desktop, iPhone, iPad, Android, Android TV and Fire TV. Free for personal use, with hardware transcoding and no ads.
I make Quven at Quven Technologies S.R.L. Your films, series and documentaries stay on your own hardware and play in native apps for Windows, macOS, iPhone, iPad, Android, Android TV and Fire TV, with a Linux server and a Docker image. Personal use is free, with hardware transcoding and no ads. Pro adds the managed relay and the hosted web client. What would keep you from trying it, and what should I improve first? The films in the screenshots are Creative Commons open movies.
Hardware transcoding for free personal use is a pretty strong offer. Are there any limitations spending on the server hardware?

Who hunted Quven?
Quven was hunted by Domenico Gabriele Aiello. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
