Popcorn Time

Visit the project's website at https://popcorntime.is.

This project would absolutely not be possible without the original developer's hard work into making Popcorn Time what it is today. All credit should go to them, we're just trying to help the community :)

Getting Started

If you're comfortable getting up and running from a git clone, this method is for you.

If you clone the GitLab repository, you will need to build a number of assets with npm.

The master branch which contains the latest release.

Requirements

  1. You must have git installed
  2. You must have npm installed

Running

Runs the app without building, useful for testing

  1. git clone https://github.com/PopcornTime-CE/desktop.git
  2. cd desktop
  3. npm install
  4. npm start

Error

The video could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported

  1. Go to your popcorntime directory desktop and paste/replace libffmpegsumo.so in it.

Building

Builds the app for a packaged, runnable app

  1. npm install
  2. gulp build OR node_modules/.bin/gulp build depending whether you have gulp installed globally or not.
  3. You can also build for different platforms by passing them with the -p argument as a comma-seperated list (For example: gulp build -p osx64,win32
  4. There should be a build/ directory containing the built files

Community

Keep track of Popcorn Time Community development and community activity.

Versioning

For transparency and insight into our release cycle, and for striving to maintain backward compatibility, Popcorn Time will be maintained according to the Semantic Versioning guidelines as much as possible.

Releases will be numbered with the following format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>-<build>

Constructed with the following guidelines:

  • A new major release indicates a large change where backwards compatibility is broken.
  • A new minor release indicates a normal change that maintains backwards compatibility.
  • A new patch release indicates a bugfix or small change which does not affect compatibility.
  • A new build release indicates this is a pre-release of the version.
