Overview

A polished desktop video player for locally stored films and series. Instead of navigating raw folders, Local-Flix presents your collection in a Netflix-style browsable interface — with posters, descriptions, and genre tags fetched automatically from the TMDB API.

Features

  • Auto-fetches cover art and plot summaries from TMDB for every title in your library
  • Genre tagging pulled directly from the API
  • Filter and sort by genre, movie vs. series
  • Threaded loading so the UI stays responsive while fetching metadata
  • Local playback via PyQt5 media integration
