Recently, we have received a lot of user feedback regarding issues such as how to use VidHub, mounting empty files, and where to watch movies. Don't worry, we have prepared a detailed user guide for you!

1. Introduction to VidHub: Create Your Own Private Movie Library

VidHub is a movie player that differs from domestic platforms like Aiyou Teng, which provide a large amount of self-owned resources. With this software, you can play your personal movie resources. VidHub can automatically fetch and categorize detailed information about movies, including posters, actors, summaries, etc., to provide convenience in creating your private movie library.

2. How to Create Your Private Movie Library

After the initial download, your homepage may appear empty, but there's no need to worry. Click on "File Source," select "Add File Source," and you can add local directories, SMB, WebDAV/AList, etc. You can directly mount various major cloud drives like Aliyun, Baidu Cloud, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, and more. Additionally, you can use WebDAV to mount NAS, 115 Cloud, Quark Cloud, PikPak, and others. For detailed instructions, please visit this link.

3. Why Are Resources Not Displaying Correctly After Mounting?

This may be due to scraping errors. VidHub uses TMDB for scraping, so if there is no relevant content on TMDB, scraping may not be completed. Moreover, scraping needs to match naming conventions. For detailed information, please check here. If there are naming errors, VidHub also supports batch renaming, which is very convenient.

4. Possible Reasons for Mounting Failures and Solutions

• Failure to mount the cloud drive may be due to authorization issues. If authorization expires, simply log back into the cloud drive and reauthorize.
• WebDAV mounting failures could be due to incorrect port, account password, or path entries. Check and correct them accordingly.
• If WebDAV mounting is successful but no files are visible, verify if the path is correctly filled.

5. Subtitle Mounting Failure or Gibberish Text

• Gibberish subtitles: For Chinese subtitles, after selecting online subtitles, click on encoding, and choose Chinese (GBK).
• Subtitle mounting failure: File names must match and all files should be in the same directory.

6. How to Convert Traditional Chinese to Simplified Chinese on Apple TV

First, for the configuration items: In the settings, in the Apple TV language settings, place Simplified Chinese as the first preferred language. In the input method, Traditional Chinese should be available. Turn on Siri and set it to Mandarin (Taiwan), and select China as the region. Also, turn on the dictation function.

When inputting, select the Traditional Chinese input method on the input method interface, and then use voice input. At this time, it will be in Simplified Chinese.

7. Where to Set Skip Intro and Outro

For Emby/Plex, if the server itself has the skip intro function enabled, the skip intro and outro buttons will automatically appear.

For other videos in the media library, the chapter information of the video file will be obtained. If there are intro and outro chapters, the skip intro and outro buttons will automatically appear.

Open the software settings, enable the automatic skip intro and outro function, and you can manually set the intro and outro time when playing the video.

8. The Displayed Network Speed is Inaccurate

The real - time network speed displayed on the playback interface is for reference only. As long as the video can be played smoothly, don't worry too much about it.

9. The Poster is Displayed Incorrectly or Not Displayed

• It may be that there is no poster on TMDB. You can update the poster on TMDB.
• It could also be that due to a network error, the scraping didn't work. Check the network and try scraping again after some time.

10. The Video Feels a Bit Laggy When Playing at 2x Speed. Why?

• Insufficient Processor Performance: Speeding up video playback requires more processor resources to decode and render the video. If the processor performance of your device is not sufficient to support this speed, it will lead to lagging.
• Insufficient Memory: Speeding up video playback may increase the memory usage. If the memory of your device is insufficient, the system will start using virtual memory, which can cause performance degradation and lagging.
• Lack of Hardware Acceleration Support: The hardware acceleration of some devices may not support high - speed playback, which may result in lagging or unsmooth video playback.
• Network Issues: If you are playing the video online, insufficient network speed may also cause the video to lag because the video cannot be loaded in a timely manner.
• Problems with the Video Itself: Some videos may not be suitable for speeding up playback because their frame rate or encoding method may not adapt well to high - speed playback.

11. How to Enable Spatial Audio

• Enable the spatial audio setting: Open vidhub - Settings - Playback - Enable spatial audio.
• The vidhub video needs to be in a playing state.
• The current device needs to support it.
