Get settled in

Your first movie night.

01 / SERVER

Prepare your library.

Run your HomeFlix media server and add movies or shows you own or have permission to use. Confirm you can sign in to the server from a browser first.

02 / CINEMA

Install the right edition.

The PC VR edition runs on a 64-bit Windows PC with a compatible OpenXR setup and controllers. The Quest edition runs on the headset and currently requires sideloading. Read the requirements for the exact release you download.

03 / CONNECT

Sign in to your server.

Enter your media server address in the app. Your website account and your media server account are separate. When connecting across the internet, use a securely configured connection to your server.

Watching with someone else

Both people must be able to reach the same media server. Create a private room, share its room code, and select a seat. A room code does not configure remote server access.

Current PC VR controls use controllers. Quest hand controls and movable menus depend on the installed build. Voice chat and Meta profile avatars are not promised by these releases.
