VibeTV
The server half of VibeTV

VibeTV Manager

Not everyone has a k3s cluster in a Linux homelab, and you have better things to do than babysit a custom AIOStreams. This is one Mac app that runs a private, all-in-one streaming server for the whole house, ready for VibeTV on every iPhone and Apple TV.

  • Runs on your Mac
  • No cloud
  • No account with us
  • macOS 14+

You'll need a Real-Debrid plan and a free TMDB key. The app walks you through both.

Set up in about 15 minutes.

TMDB → Real-Debrid → your TV

A built-in Tutorial ticks itself off as you go: get a free TMDB key, pick a Real-Debrid plan, paste two tokens, turn on Tailscale, sign in on the TV. No YAML, no Docker, no terminal.

Everyone gets their own profile.

Household → QR code → Sign In

Add the people in your house. Each gets their own watch history and Continue Watching. Signing in a TV is a QR code or one Quick Connect click.

Switches, not addon soup.

Movies and TV · Anime · Subtitles

Three plain switches turn on a sensible set of sources and catalogs, including rows for what's on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video and friends. The real names live in Advanced, for people who enjoy that sort of thing.

Watch from anywhere. Privately.

Tailscale, not port forwarding

Your phones and TVs reach the Mac over your own private Tailscale network. Nothing is exposed to the public internet. Works with VibeTV on iPhone and Apple TV, and with Infuse and Stremio.

Updates · Backups · Starts at login

Signed automatic updates, a backup before every one, and it starts when the Mac does. If something breaks, Logs → Export Diagnostics makes one file to send to whoever helps you.

Security

Boring, on purpose.

What protects your Mac, your accounts and your home.

  • Signed and notarized

    Developer ID signed with Apple's hardened runtime, notarized and stapled.

  • Private network only

    The server listens only on your Mac. Devices reach it over your own Tailscale network, with no port forwarding.

  • Secrets in the Keychain

    Real-Debrid and TMDB tokens and config passwords live in the macOS Keychain, never in plain files.

  • Sandboxed server

    The streaming server and Tailscale run in a macOS sandbox. They can write only to their own folders and can't start other programs.

  • Signed updates

    App updates and server runtime updates are cryptographically signed and checked before install.

  • Password on every config

    Each config needs its own password, and creating one needs the admin login.

  • No analytics

    No telemetry, no tracking, no account with us.

  • Your data stays home

    Configs, watch history and backups stay on your Mac.

Give the Mac mini a job.
