Straumr lets you watch
Fast, easy, smooth — a native player you can actually customize ⚡ Free on desktop forever. No ads. No account required. Just hit play ▶️
Coming soon · Free on desktop · No ads · No sign-up required
What you get
Simple on the surface. The useful stuff is still there when you need it.
Solid playback
Built on libmpv — handles messy files and streams without drama. Tracks, fullscreen, stats, keyboard control.
Clean UI
Dark desktop layout that doesn’t look like 2008. Fullscreen modes that make sense. No random panels everywhere.
Make it yours
Rename, hide, favorites, custom categories, preferred languages, rebindable keys. Set it up once.
Free · no account
Desktop stays free forever. No ads, no forced sign-up just to open the player and watch something.
Live & streaming sources
Guide, logos, quality groups, long lists that stay usable. Strong workflow if you live in live TV and catalogs.
Local & libraries Coming
Drag-and-drop, open file / folder / URL, and library servers like Jellyfin — on the roadmap, not vaporware.

Beta is real software. The rest is planned product, not a maybe-someday slide.
