reel

reel is a HTTP movie share, think XBMC for web browsers

Requirements

Run pip install twisted flask beautifulsoup4 user_agents Pillow PyYaml to make sure you have all the requirements.

Configuration

copy config.yml.default to config.yml and modify the values. The movie directory should have movies organized into subfolders, with thumbnails(jpg, png or tbn) and (optionally) XBMC-style .nfo files. Thumbnails may be named either <moviename>.(jpg, png, tbn) or <moviename>-poster.(jpg, png, tbn)

$ ls /movies/back-to-the-future-part-1-1985/
back-to-the-future-part-1-1985.m4v  back-to-the-future-part-1-1985.nfo  back-to-the-future-part-1-1985-poster.jpg

You may need to modify your /etc/mime.types to support the m4v extension.

video/mp4                                       mp4 m4v

.nfo files will be read for the <sorttile> tag

<movie>
        <sorttitle>harry potter 4</sorttitle>
</movie>
