Questions and answers.
Short and honest about what Cinezen does — and what it doesn't yet.
Yes. The catalog, downloads and the built-in player are free — no account. There are no paid plans.
Yes. Cinezen plays video with its own mpv-based player: chapters, episodes with auto-advance, audio and subtitle track selection. Nothing extra to install.
Yes, that's the main flow: hit Watch and the player starts, while the timeline shows which parts are already downloaded.
No. The catalog, search, downloads and playback work without signing up. Accounts will come later — for lists and cross-device sync.
Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit) today. macOS and Linux builds are planned.
You choose the download folder. Cinezen keeps your library tidy and never touches anything outside it.
Automatically. Cinezen checks and installs updates in the background — nothing to download by hand.
A browser extension that syncs browser playback with the desktop app. Installs in one click.
We don't host content and we remove metadata and links from the catalog on substantiated notices. The process and requirements are on the "For rights holders" page in the site footer.
