Streaming

The Application mainly gets Video Streams from VidSrc (you can also Stream from videasy and vidking).

It fetches Information for Images, Info Texts, Search and Homepage from tmdb.

---

Downloading

You can download those Video Streams because the Program sources Links to their .m3u8 Playlist Files (similar to this Browser Extension).

Once you click 'Download' these Links are used to download the Full Movie/TV Episode using this Program. You can then watch them In-App or take the Files on any Storage Medium you want.

---

Anime

You can also watch Anime, the App checks if a Movie or Series is an Anime and then sources its Metadata from AniList instead of tmdb.

Media Files for Animes are scraped from AllManga.to (i stole this mechanic from ani-cli). The App directly gets .mp4 Files and doesnt evem show you the AllManga website, you can also download these Files, just like any other Content.

Requirements
