On the first start Quven finds the servers on the network by itself.

The first five minutes.

From the installation to the first film, with nothing to set up by hand.

  1. Install One package with the server and the app for your system.
  2. Sign in With your Quven Account, which is free and links the apps to the server.
  3. Choose the folders Films, series, music and books, where you already keep them.
  4. Watch On the computer, on the television and on the phone.

Coming from Plex or Jellyfin? In Settings › Import, Quven shows what it will bring over before it writes anything.

For those with a server

First start on Linux

The Linux package is a server without a window. Make the file executable, start it, then link it to your Quven Account and approve the server at the address the last command prints. On ARM64 use the linux-arm64 file name.

chmod +x Quven-Server-1.5.10-linux-x64.AppImage
./Quven-Server-1.5.10-linux-x64.AppImage start
./Quven-Server-1.5.10-linux-x64.AppImage account link
Read the Linux guide

Release notes for every version are in the changelog. First installation? Read the self-hosted media server guide.

The apps for phone and TV

They connect to your server on their own, at home and away.
