# Weave Player

> Play the films, shows and music you already own, on every screen in the house. One purchase, no subscription.

Weave Player is one face of the Weave family from Epiphani Studios. Weave Player plays the films
and shows you own, Weave FM plays your own music, and Weave Radio holds the streaming services
and stations you already listen to. All three are the same application and are covered by a
single one time purchase called Weave Pro.

## Price
Weave Pro: $34.99, one time, in United States dollars, sold by Epiphani Studios LLC
through Polar as merchant of record. One purchase covers the household and every Mac, iPhone,
iPad and Apple TV in it, and everyone who lives there. There is no subscription and no renewal.

## Platforms
macOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS.

## What it does
- Plays what you have: libmpv on FFmpeg, decoding in hardware through VideoToolbox. The original bytes stream straight to the device that is playing them, so nothing is re-encoded on the way and nothing loses a generation.
- Libraries on more than one Mac: Each family member keeps their collection on their own machine, and Weave Player joins them into a single view, marks which library each title came from, and seeks across them.
- Films and music in one app: One index covers video and audio: films, shows, albums, artists, covers, the play queue and Now Playing.
- Names things correctly: The metadata pass reads TMDB for film and television and MusicBrainz with AcoustID fingerprinting for music, behind a confidence gate that leaves a title alone rather than guessing at it.
- Your streaming services: Channels puts the services you already pay for into the same window as isolated tiles, so one app is the place you press play.
- Dropbox as a shelf: A Dropbox folder joins the library as a member alongside your local drives.
- Knows what is coming: A 14-day release strip sits under the shows you follow, with a calendar feed you can subscribe to.
- Built for the family: Kid profiles filter by rating, and everyone keeps their own watch and listen state on a shared library.

## Where the library lives
On the owner's own machines. The Mac application indexes the folders it is pointed at and serves
them over the household's own network using Bonjour discovery, so playback comes from the copy the
household already owns.
