Designed for spatial viewing

Calm interface, deep capability. IdlePlay stays out of the way and keeps your library fast, readable, and ready for XR.

Plex, Jellyfin, local, SMB, WebDAV

Bring your existing library. Browse artwork and metadata, then play instantly across all your sources.

Always complete artwork

Missing posters, backdrops, or metadata? IdlePlay pulls from TMDB to fill the gaps across all your sources so every title looks polished.

Immersive formats

Support for SBS, Top/Bottom, and 180°/360° content, with format-first playback controls.

Picture in picture

Keep playback running while you browse, search, and adjust settings, without breaking flow.

Gaze driven controls

Look to highlight, pinch to select, designed around spatial ergonomics and comfort.

Smart library indexing

Local files and SMB shares get automatic TMDB matching. Rich artwork, metadata, and ratings appear alongside your Plex and Jellyfin libraries.

Request & expand

Found a title not in your library? Request it right from the discovery feed. IdlePlay connects to Overseerr and Jellyseerr to route requests to Sonarr and Radarr. Your library grows without leaving XR.

Playback diagnostics

Real-time smart notifications for direct play, HDR, bandwidth, and frame drops. Full stats overlay with codec, resolution, and network metrics at a glance.

Video post-processing

Built-in tone mapping, debanding, and CAS sharpening filters. Fine-tune exposure, gamma, black lift, and highlight compression in real time.

Resume playback

Pick up where you left off. IdlePlay remembers your position and resumes automatically across sessions.

Swipe to seek

Drag across the video to scrub forward or back. A live overlay shows how far you're jumping.

Simple pricing

One plan. No tiers. No ads. Calm by default.

FAQ

Do I need a server PC?

No. If you have Plex or Jellyfin, you can connect to those servers. For local playback you can use headset storage. For SMB, any NAS or shared folder on your network works.

Is this designed specifically for Galaxy XR?

Yes. The UI is tuned for XR interaction and readability, with a calm layout that feels system native.

What is the Overseerr integration?

If you run Overseerr or Jellyseerr, IdlePlay can send media requests directly from the discovery feed.
