Android TV · Fire TV

A player for the media you already have.

Point Meridian at your own Jellyfin, Emby or Plex server, or at a playlist you hold — it plays what you give it and nothing else. Meridian supplies no media of any kind.

The problem

Typing a URL with a D-pad is miserable.

Sixty-four characters, an on-screen keyboard, four arrow keys. One typo and you start again. Meridian puts a short code on the TV, you scan it, and you type on the thing already in your hand.

  2. 02Type your source on your phone

What it does

Four things, done properly. Everything else stays out of the way.

A guide you can read from the sofa

Your playlist's own guide data on a proper timeline, at TV distance — not a wall of small text.

Metadata from your own library

Titles, artwork and episode order come from the server you connect — matched and tidied, never invented and never sourced elsewhere.

A player that doesn't break

Hardware decoding, subtitle and audio track switching, resume where you left off, and a buffer that survives a weak connection.

Every source in one place

Jellyfin, Emby, Plex, an M3U playlist or an Xtream login — added once from your phone, then side by side on one home screen.

Install it, then pair from your phone.

Free to try. No account needed to pair a source.
