PearCinema v1.1.3 is out! Your film and television collection, playable anywhere, without exposing your server to the internet. New Features • Choose what each person can see. On the People page, every person now has a "Can see" line: tick the drives or folders they may watch, to any depth, and everything else disappears for them. Tick nothing and they see everything, as before. Films they have already downloaded stay on their phone. • Decide it when you invite them, not after. Pairing a new device now asks what it will be able to see before it shows you a code, so a device can be limited from the moment it joins. Handing over the whole library asks you to confirm. • The phone app works sideways, and on tablets. Turn it and the page fills the screen instead of staying a narrow column. Improvements • Films and TV shows with unusual filenames now get proper episode numbers. Anime numbered 01, 02, 03, files named only "E01", and several other naming styles were being filed with no episode number at all, so they could not be sorted or resumed. • Specials, OVAs and bonus episodes are now filed under "Specials" instead of sitting numberless, and creditless openings and disc menus no longer show up as episodes. • Films that cannot be read are now named on the dashboard. Previously a damaged or half-copied file simply never appeared in the library, with nothing said anywhere. • Converting on an NVIDIA graphics card now works with the drivers Linux Mint and Ubuntu ship. The bundled converter needed a newer driver than those systems offer. • When the video engine test fails, the page now shows what each graphics option said, in plain words, instead of one unexplained error. • A television waiting on its Media Assistant channel is now named in the phone's TV picker, with the one step needed to fix it. • Changes to what somebody can see reach their phone in about a second, without needing to refresh. Security • The file holding this machine's private key for reaching other libraries is no longer readable by other users on the same computer. Reported by a user; it is tightened automatically the next time PearCinema starts. @Zapstore #PearCinema #P2P #selfhosted #video #movies #privacy #jellyfin #Android #iOS
