Runs on

Press play, and it starts while still downloading

Skip ahead and the download jumps there with you.

  • The TMPlayer desktop player over a demo video: the title and chat at the top, a timebar, and buttons for subtitles, audio, speed, picture shape, volume, the mini player and fullscreen. The player's timebar up close: the played part up to the playhead, then a lighter part already downloaded, then the part still to come.

    Watch while it downloads

    Seek past the downloaded part and the download follows.

  • A demo series on a phone: its artwork, one of four episodes watched, a button to resume the second episode, and Season 1.

    Shows in order

    Each series gets its own page, with episodes grouped by season.

  • Two rows of demo video posters on a phone, marked 4K, 1080p and 720p, each with its year, size or number of versions.

    Plays the files people send

    MKV, MP4, AVI and TS, with subtitles and audio tracks, or subtitles from OpenSubtitles.

  • The player on a television with a card in the corner: next, S01E05, starting in 12 seconds, with a Play now button.

    Picks up where you stopped

    Continue watching on launch, and the next episode after a countdown.

  • A search in a demo chat on a television, typed as harbor lines, finding every Harbour Lines episode.

    Finds it when you mistype

    Typos and missing accents still find it, and so does the remote's microphone.
