Deimos Cinema guide

One player for TVs, phones, and computers. Point, tap, or use arrows — OK opens, Back is Home. Uploads encode to 720p H.264; NVIDIA GPUs use NVENC when ffmpeg supports it. PayPal unlocks Pro.

  2. Sign in or register.
  3. Activate this player — or paste a key if you already bought one.

Done when you are signed in and Home shows the tiles. Keep a copy of the key.

Standard = 1 year. Premium = 3 years. Ultimate = lifetime. One player → one account. Up to 3 players per owner. Activating the same player twice does nothing. Shop keys also work under License. Deimos does not store your video files.

02b · Encode

How videos are encoded

Need ffmpeg on the machine that runs the player. Cinema and On-demand Docker images include it. Windows and Mac use it if ffmpeg is on the PATH.

  1. Upload a file or paste an MP4 URL. Deimos writes a 720p H.264 + AAC MP4 (faststart), a poster JPEG, and an HLS copy.
  2. If the PC has an NVIDIA GPU and ffmpeg lists h264_nvenc, encoding uses the GPU (NVENC). If that fails, it uses CPU libx264.
  3. Playback is the 720p MP4. Force CPU with FFMPEG_ENCODER=x264, or GPU with FFMPEG_ENCODER=nvenc.

Same picture on every TV and browser: 720p H.264, AAC stereo, 128 kbps. NVIDIA makes the encode faster; the file you play is unchanged.

Stock Docker ffmpeg often has no NVENC. Run the host binary on a desktop with an NVIDIA driver and an ffmpeg build that includes NVENC (most Windows ffmpeg builds do).

IPTV. Home → IPTV. Live is livestreams (Public demo: NASA TV, France 24, DW, NHK World-Japan, 3ABN). On demand is an M3U of films or episodes. Add M3U and pick Live or On demand. Optional EPG for Now / Next on live lists.

Free: 1 playlist of your own (the Public demo does not count), 250 channels. Pro: unlimited playlists, 2,000 channels each. Deimos does not sell channels. Don’t import “free IPTV” dumps.

03 · Together

Watch with others

You’ll need: an account. A guest key only if you don’t already have Pro.

  1. Sign in.
  2. If playback is locked, open Guest Key and pay for your account.
  3. Watch. You stay on the same second as the host.

Done when the status line shows more than one person watching. Tick I am the remote only if they want you to control the film.

04 · Help

If something fails

The film is silent

The player tries to start with sound. If it starts muted, tap the picture once — that is Unmute. The player cannot override the device volume mute.

Go Pro does nothing

Only the owner of this player can activate it. Visitors use Guest Key. If this player is already activated, it will not mint a second account.

Upload wants storage keys

Create a bucket with your storage host, paste the keys under Storage, then upload.

I paid but have no key

The thanks page shows the key. Copy it, then License → paste → Activate. If the page is empty, wait a few seconds and refresh.

An IPTV channel won’t play

The link is dead or locked to another country. If the same URL fails in any other player, the list is the problem. Re-import the playlist to refresh it.

How are my uploads encoded?

720p H.264 + AAC MP4, a poster, and HLS. NVIDIA GPUs use NVENC when ffmpeg supports it; otherwise CPU libx264. Set FFMPEG_ENCODER to auto, nvenc, or x264.
