Your library, in a private cinema.
Reel Room plays films, TV, and music from your Jellyfin server — or straight from a local or network drive — onto a virtual 4K screen, inside hand-crafted theatre environments. Lossless quality. No subscription. Your room, your rules.
A home theatre that travels with you
Put on a PCVR headset, settle into a curated space, and watch what you actually own — in original quality, with no streaming service in the middle.
Your server — or your drives
Connect to a Jellyfin instance on your network, or point Reel Room straight at a local drive or network share. It reads your full library — films, series, music — respecting your folders, posters, and metadata.
Lossless first
Direct-plays original files when your hardware can. Where transcoding is needed, audio stays high-fidelity and H.264 / HEVC video is stream-copied — never re-encoded.
3D movies, automatically
Side-by-side and over-under 3D films are detected straight from your library and shown with true stereoscopic depth — in every environment, no setup. For untagged files, a 2D/3D toggle is one click away.
Hand-crafted environments
Sink into cozy Home Zen rooms or cinematic Theatre Zen spaces — each with its own lighting, ambient audio rig, and decor. More rooms arrive after launch.
Full in-VR HUD
A purpose-built world-space UI puts scrubbing, chapter jumps, environment switching, and music controls on a single motion controller. Nothing hidden behind a menu.
Music mode too
Albums stream to a music-tuned room with album art on the screen and an audio rig in the space — a queue you can shuffle, repeat, and seek.
Multi-headset by design
Built on OpenXR — tested on Meta Quest and Pimax, and compatible with any OpenXR PCVR headset, with controller bindings tuned per device.
Settings that follow you
Your Jellyfin login, room configurations, and playback preferences sync across machines via Steam Cloud — set up once, pick up where you left off on any PC.
No subscription. No telemetry.
You pay once. Your watch history stays on your Jellyfin server. Your network traffic stays on your network. Your library stays yours.
Pick a room. Set the mood.
Each environment has its own lighting, ambient audio, and decor — switch between them in-headset with a flick of the stick.
Point it at your files. That’s it.
Reel Room never asks you to upload, re-encode, or migrate. Point it at a Jellyfin server on your LAN — or a local drive or network share — and it works: Blu-ray rips, anime collections, family videos, FLAC albums, podcasts.
- Plays from anywhere — a Jellyfin server, a local drive, or a network share (NAS / SMB).
- Up to 140 Mbps streaming covers 4K Blu-ray bitrates without compromise.
- Direct-play first — H.264 & HEVC are stream-copied, never re-encoded.
- Lossless audio on the music path — FLAC and lossless AAC preserved.
- Your metadata, respected — folders, posters, and watch state stay on your server.
The HUD lives where your hands are.
Every screen is world-space UI, every interaction is motion-controller native. There’s no flat menu floating in space, no mouse cursor, no awkward gaze-pointer.
- Analog scrub with ramping speed, chapter jumps, and an env-picker — all on one controller.
- Seated, standing, or roomscale — recenter is automatic and glitch-safe.
- Controller bindings tuned per device across the whole OpenXR ecosystem.
If it speaks OpenXR, Reel Room runs on it.
Tested on Meta Quest and Pimax, and compatible with any OpenXR PCVR headset — tuned per controller, so the headset you already own is the one it’s made for.
