Cinemmaski

A sleek, Netflix-style video player for Windows

What it does

I love how Netflix presents content — cinematic and immersive. But playing local files on Windows? Every app felt outdated. Nothing felt premium. So, I built Cinemmaski. A modern, Netflix-inspired video player for Windows. Powered by libmpv, no subscription needed — internet only fetches metadata. 🎬 Dark, cinematic UI ⚡ Powered by libmpv 🖥️ On the Microsoft Store 📂 No cloud, no tracking Available for $2.89. Would love your feedback! 🙏

    Pixeltune, a nicer chiptune and VGM player2024 · pixeltune.org · ▲80

    10 years ago I began working on Muki, a web-based MIDI and chiptune player which I eventually announced here on HN[0]. It was a fun weekend project. Over the years I received numerous requests from people that wanted more: more music, more features, more playable formats, you name it. Eventually I began working on a complete rewrite of the app (this time for real), and, realizing that each year another chiptune or MIDI website went offline, I decided to start archiving them for preservation. Today, 10 years after the first release, I think it's finally time for the new, nicer version to hit…

    Mayo – A lightweight, web-based audio player that works offline2025 · mayo.clumsy.fish · ▲26

    Here is the backstory: I used to use YouTube Music, but then I deleted my Google account. I didn't want Spotify because I hate it for various reasons, and at the same time I wanted to show off my programming skills. So here we are. --- On the client: solidjs + tailwindcss + minisearch. IndexedDB as the database. One web worker to download audio to OPFS. Another web worker for indexing with minisearch. On top of this a service worker to precache static assets and make the app work offline. On the server: bun + astro + sqlite + ffmpeg. Full-text search is implemented with fts5. Astro Actions…

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
