SailVideo (NAS/SMB player)

SailVideo

Native local and network video player for Sailfish OS.

SailVideo is designed as a Sailfish-native video player for videos stored on the phone, removable storage, home NAS servers and HTTP/HTTPS sources.

It uses QtMultimedia and the Sailfish GStreamer playback stack and provides SMB2/SMB3 network playback through a local seekable HTTP Range bridge.
