Import and Export

You can export medias from the player. Export can contain:

  • just the manifest data (media meta information like title, original poster/media url etc, once imported back into the player, player will have to fetch poster/media from the original source website)
  • just the medias (poster files, media files)
  • both manifests and medias.

You can also make your export encrypted by password. To import it back again user will need your password.

Typical usage could be:

  • export media files so you can use it elsewhere
  • export manifest file, and share it with your friends. they can import it into their player and download the content themselves.
  • export both as per your requirements
