Coming soon to Apple TV

Everything is on tonight.

Rerun Guide turns your Plex, Jellyfin or Emby library into channels that run on a schedule, like TV used to. Flip around, land on something halfway through, stay for the rest.

2How it works

Set up on the couch. Nothing to install on your server.

1

Connect your library

Pick Plex, Jellyfin or Emby on your Apple TV. Plex and Emby sign in with a code you type on your phone; Jellyfin just needs your server address.

2

Get your channels

Rerun Guide reads your movies and shows and builds channels from genres, decades and series. Noir on 4, sci-fi on 7, the classics on 9.

3

Flip around

Every channel keeps running on its schedule, so something is always on. Land on it live, or start from the beginning.

4Features

Less choosing. More watching.

The guide: channels down the side, tonight’s programs across, with Charade on The Matinee 46 minutes in.

A schedule that keeps running

Channels play whether you’re watching or not. Open the guide and see what’s on now, what’s next, and how far in you’d be.

Program info for D.O.A. with Watch live and Start from the beginning buttons.

Walked in late? Start over.

Join anything live, or start it from the beginning. It’s your library, so you never miss the opening.

Channel surf with the remote

Swipe up or down to change channels while you watch. Swipe left to jump back to the last one.

The channels list, where you add and edit your own channels.

Make your own channels

Give one actor, one director or one show a channel of its own. Pick the order, and turn trailer breaks on or off.

9Supported servers

Works with the server you already run.

Plex

Sign in with a code at plex.tv/link. Your Plex Media Server libraries show up automatically.

Emby

Rerun Guide talks to your server straight from your Apple TV. There’s no add-on, plugin or container to set up, and your library never passes through us.

Read every line before you trust it.

Rerun Guide is made by soyboi llc, the small independent shop behind soyboi.tech. Like the beacons app, its code is public.

Rerun Guide

The whole codebase is on GitHub.

  • No account, no analytics, no ads.
  • No backend. Schedules are worked out on your Apple TV from the clock, so there’s nothing of ours in the middle.
  • Build it yourself, file an issue, or send a fix.
