A Powerful and Fast Popcorn Time Client

Features

Huge database: The API collects most of known movies (6000+) and shows (3000+)

Performance: A strong effort has been made to get the best performance from UI navigation and downloading

How does it work

Frontend

Framework

The app is a .NET 4.6.2 application using WPF framework.

Basics

It communicates with its own API to query movies, shows, trailers, cast, assets and torrents. The app includes a video player (ffmediaelement) and a torrent handler (libtorrent). It is also able to cast to a Chromecast device.

Advanced

The app can update by itself automatically using an incremental update system.

Popcorn also sends usage data to Azure Application Insights.

Backend

The API is a ASP.NET Core app which serves movies and shows from SQL Server database. It also supports caching using Redis database.

The assets (images and torrent files) are stored on Azure Blob Storage.

Supported platforms

Windows 7+ is supported (Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10).
