MKStreamer

MKStreamer sends locally stored Mac videos to compatible players on the same local network.

Our take

Choose it for watching personal movie files on a nearby TV or mobile device.

HLS output, subtitle selection and stream links help bridge files and playback devices.

Keep in mind: The Mac and viewer must share a local network; playback depends on the receiver, codecs and network. This is not a general offsite streaming service.

What you can do

  • Stream to compatible Apple TV, Smart TV and Chromecast setups
  • Share a stream link or scan a QR code on a phone
  • Choose available subtitles and alternate audio tracks

Good for

  • Homes sharing personal video files from a Mac to local screens.

Consider alternatives for

  • Users needing remote access from unrelated networks or guaranteed playback of every file.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: macOS 10.15.
  • The Mac and viewer must share a local network; playback depends on the receiver, codecs and network. This is not a general offsite streaming service.

Privacy & permissions

Stream links and QR codes provide access to media on the local network; share them only with intended viewers and use a trusted network.
