Your own media server, and a player that is yours.
Nielix is the player for your own films, series, music and photos, on TV, phone and computer. The server runs at your place and is free. If you want more, I offer a Premium subscription per server.
Nielix is only the player. The software contains no films, series or channels.
The short version
Your own player
Libraries, a TV app and a web app that play your own files. Everything stays with you.
A free basic server
The server and the apps cost nothing to use. You do not need an account with me.
Premium per server
One subscription per server. It covers every user and device on that server. The key is fetched automatically.
No tracking in the app
No analytics and no ads in the app or the server. The server only sends me something if you ask it to.
