About This Software

Reel Room is a VR home theatre that streams films, TV, and music from your own Jellyfin server onto a virtual 4K screen, inside hand-crafted theatre environments. Put on a PCVR headset, sink into a curated room, and watch what you actually own — in lossless original quality, with no monthly fee and no streaming service in the middle.

Features

• Stream from your own server. Connect to a Jellyfin instance on your home network. Reel Room reads your full library — films, series, music — and respects your folder structure, posters, and metadata.

• Lossless first. Direct-plays original files when your hardware can. Where transcoding is needed, audio is preserved at high fidelity (FLAC and lossless AAC on the music path) and video is stream-copied without re-encoding for H.264 and HEVC sources.

• Hand-crafted environments. Choose between cozy “Home Zen” rooms and more cinematic “Theatre Zen” spaces, each with its own lighting, ambient audio rig, and decor. More environments arrive post-launch.

• Full in-VR HUD. A purpose-built world-space UI gives you scrubbing, chapter jumps, environment switching, and music controls — all on a single motion controller. Nothing is hidden behind a menu.

• Music mode too. Albums stream to a music-tuned environment with album art on the screen, audio rig in the room, and a queue you can shuffle, repeat, or seek.

• Multi-headset by design. Built on OpenXR, runs on every major PCVR headset, with controller bindings tuned per device.

• No subscription. No telemetry. You pay once. Your watch history stays on your Jellyfin server. Your network traffic stays on your network.

Your library, your way

Reel Room never asks you to upload, re-encode, or migrate. Point it at a Jellyfin server on your LAN and it works — Blu-ray rips, anime collections, family videos, FLAC albums, podcasts. If Jellyfin can serve it, Reel Room can play it. Up to 140 Mbps streaming covers 4K Blu-ray bitrates without compromise.

Built for VR, not ported to it

Every screen is world-space UI Toolkit, every interaction is motion-controller native. There is no flat menu floating in space, no mouse cursor, no awkward gaze-pointer. The HUD lives where your eyes are; the controls live where your hands are.
