MEdiaCenter

Self-hosted. Family-first.

Everything your family loves, in one place.

MEdiaCenter brings live TV, movies, music, games, photos, and chat together on a server you own — so movie night, game night, and family calls all start from the same front door.

The whole house, one homepage

Less app-switching.
More being together.

MEdiaCenter is the place where the family’s media, memories, and everyday tools live side by side. No more hunting for the right app, the right login, or the right folder.

Watch

Your library, ready for the couch.

Movies, series, recordings, and the family theater — with a home screen that remembers where everyone left off.

Live TV & DVR

The guide, the game, the news.

Browse channels, see what’s on now, and record the moments you don’t want to miss.

Listen

A soundtrack for every room.

Albums, radio, podcasts, karaoke, and concerts — with a player that follows you between screens.

Play

Game night, without the setup.

Family board games, arcade classics, a 3D casino, and big adventures — all from the same menu.

Remember

The photos stay in the family.

Shared albums, home movies, a family tree, and a year in review — all private to the people you invite.

Connect

Closer than a group text.

MeChat, video calls, walkie-talkie, shared files, and a family board for the little things.

Made for a household, not an audience

Everyone gets their own seat at the table.

Give each person a profile, a watchlist, and a space for their own music and photos. Keep the kids’ corner separate. Share the calendar. Plan the next movie night without leaving the living room.

  • 01 Separate profiles for every family member
  • 02 A kids’ section with a gentler front door
  • 03 Shared photos, calendar, family tree, and board
  • 04 Video calls and chat built into the same place

Private by design

Your media.
Your hardware.
Your people.

MEdiaCenter isn’t another subscription trying to become the middleman for your family’s memories. It runs on a computer you control, and the only accounts are the ones you create.

Open your center
01

Self-hosted

Your files stay on your server. No uploads to a third-party cloud, no surprise storage bill.

02

Invite-only

Every account is created by the family admin. There are no public profiles and no strangers in the feed.

03

Admin control

Choose who can see what, manage devices, and keep an eye on the health of your server from one dashboard.

Three steps to movie night

A home for your media
in an afternoon.

01

Put it on your server

Run MEdiaCenter on a home PC, mini PC, or NAS. Point it at the folders where your movies, shows, music, and photos already live.

02

Invite your people

Create family accounts, choose who sees what, and set up the kids’ corner. No public sign-up page, no algorithms.

03

Press play

Open it in a browser on the couch, the phone, or the TV. Everything is waiting where you left it.

Already part of the family? Your center is waiting.

Good questions

A few things
worth knowing.

The short version: it’s your server, your library, and your family. Here are the details.

Is MEdiaCenter a streaming service?

No. It’s software that runs on hardware you own. You bring your own media, tuner, and family accounts. There is no subscription catalog and no third-party streaming account required.

What can I connect?

Live TV tuners and guides, movie and TV folders, music and podcasts, photo libraries, games, cameras, and the family’s everyday tools. If it lives on your server, MEdiaCenter can give it a home screen.

Who can use it?

Only the people you invite. The family admin creates accounts and decides what each person can see. There are no public profiles and no open registration.

Does it work on a TV?

Yes. MEdiaCenter runs in the browser on a computer, phone, tablet, or TV, with a remote-friendly TV layout for the living room.

Where does my data go?

Your media stays on your server. MEdiaCenter serves the interface and your files from your own hardware; there’s no upload step to a separate media cloud.

How do I get access?

Ask the family admin for a one-time pairing link, then open it once on your device. After pairing, tv.mymediacenter.org opens your center. Unpaired devices are intentionally shown a blank page.

The front door is open

Your center.
Your domain. Your family.
