Products that do what Multiplex – An App to Watch Torrents with Your Friends does
Hey HN! I just released Multiplex, an app to watch torrents together. It provides an experience similar to Apple's SharePlay and Amazon's Prime Video Watch Party, except for any torrent instead of a specific streaming service, and uses WebRTC to synchronize playback positions between the people watching without requiring a central server. It's written in Go and allows the use of a central HTTP to BitTorrent gateway[1] if a viewer can't use the BitTorrent protocol on their own device. I'd love to get your feedback :) [1] https://github.com/pojntfx/htorrent

Hello everyone! I'm currently in a journey to learn and improve my Elixir and Go skills (my daily job uses C++) and looking through my backlog for projects to take on I decided Elixir is the perfect language to write a highly-parallel BitTorrent tracker. So I have spent my free time these last 3 months writing one! Now I think it has enough features to present it to the world (and a docker image to give it a quick try). I know some people see trackers as relics of the past now that DHT and PEX are common but I think they still serve a purpose in today's Internet (purely talking about public…

Hey HN! I've been working on Muxamp for over a year now, and I decided that there's no point in keeping the source closed. (I never planned on making money from it.) I've learned a lot since I started, and I hope others can benefit from its release--and perhaps teach me a thing or two as well :)

I've made an web app to create collabrative watchlist with my friend(s). Easily create the list, invite your friends and start making movie lists private to you. Check it out! I am open to feedbacks. If you find any bugs or some feature suggesitons I'll do it in a couple day or hours. Thank you.

We've been working on a custom engineered collaborative filtering algorithm not only to recommend movies for one person but for several to watch together, at the same time. We're still in closed beta but would love to get feedback before launching.

Hey HN! I just released hTorrent, a gateway that allows for retrieving torrents through a plain HTTP interface. It supports seeking, which means that it can be used to stream media directly using e.g. MPV without having to wait for the download to complete. I'd love to get your feedback :)
