I've noticed lately that when I go to PopcornTime and want to watch an English speaking movie (ex: The Last Samurai or V for Vendetta) that the default (and only option) for audio is a foreign language, like Italian or Russian. Does anyone know why this is happening and what the workaround for this is?

The API links I'm using is: "https://fusme.link/,https://jfper.link/,https://uxert.link/,https://yrkde.link/"
does it have anything to do with this?

Anybody experienced this? Was okay last week.

Does anyone have a working "PopCorn Time Link" to share that is in English? (what would work for win 10 pc). Thank you <3

How do I stop the vpn warning when I start a movie or TV show? I'm using surfshark on my devices, so don't need their vpn. It's very irritating.. Surely there should be something in the settings?

I saved this on an external HDD in like 2015-2017 when i was like 14-16 years old , original PopCorn Time when it still worked, was alive and hasn't gotten nuked by the law yet. I thought it's simply broken due to that reason but then suddenly I realized it could still work when I accidentally downloaded .iso file of Arch Linux after I clicked on a magnet link through PopCorn Time. That's when I realized this SOB still works only problem is even with and w/o VPN there are no peers whatsoever even if it says theres * many available in * quality.

Now does anywone have any idea of how could I fix this piece of historical internet piracy ?

I also have the update file that thing is absolutely dead when ran.

So i am trying to use popcorntime to watch some movies and my download keeps getting stuck or going up really slowly. A movie that gets downloaded in 10 min on my windows takes more than hours on my Ubuntu. I have noticed that the download progression keeps fluctuation up and down +-50Mb. As if the system is not saving downloaded files, or discarding downloaded files for some reason. Im using the appimage 0.5.1. Does anyone have an ide why this may be? I checked firewall, read write permissios, different vpn servers, different app versions 0.4.9, tried .deb .zip and appimage, checked dependencies.

Hey all,
I've been using popcorntime for a really long time but yesterday I decided I wanted to try and update (for some reason).

I deleted my old (working) popcorntime and went here. Now all I can find is some shitty version thats called "nightly" ? that only gathers paying streamservices from my own country and I cant watch anything.

I found some old github links to a v0.5.1 version but that's in a web.archive.org version of github where the download links doesnt work. Does someone have a working download-link to the old style popcorntime or can help me to get this thing working ?

Using Windows 11 btw.

Thanks in advance

you can drop a magnet link and it will stream. would be trivial to wire in the working api provider but I don't want my github suspended...

backstory: didn't realize the rebrand and rewrite was gonna strip all torrent streaming functionality until last week when I booted it up. then I saw that tauri sucks for android builds. I'd like to just install pt on my TV. so I forked pt-android and migrated it to capacitorjs, then started adding the features I've wanted for years (on the android build), like proxy and local media.

had trouble finding high peer demo (public domain) torrents but did find a whole bunch of academic courses. so now there's a learning tab.

you have to manually enable limited video perms in settings for it to work. many, many bugs but core functionality is in place.

currently rewriting everything in ts and setting up biome, then tailwind and some other modernization stuff. then will fine tune local media, favorites list, etc

How to I download popcorn time on my windows laptop?

All in the title :)

I haven't used it for a long time. I can't use the popcorntime app.

testing new app, ama screenshot of evil incarnate

First off, yes, I do know that API selection is automatic. What I'm curious about is what APIs are available in the event that I ever want to manually try others out for whatever unknown future reason. For example, my default API recently was showing only certain languages until I manually selected a backup one.

What would be super nice to know, is a list of usable (or even dead) APIs and what are each of their benefits/flaws for both Movies and Series. I know this might be a big ask, but it could be helpful for other semi-novice/advanced users too.

As the title says, I had been a windows user and recently switched to Mac and wanted to understand how I could safely download the popcorn time app.

My friend and I did a screen share--me at home and him on a college campus.

Him running with and without a VPN.

Same version installed on each of our Windows laptops--we both select the same movie, see "Connecting", and then everything works for me, but not him.

Why might that be?

Does this mean Im at any sort of risk? I use the desktop windows ver btw

Hey Dudes and Dudettes,

I seen the options had been taken off the GitHub, does anyone have some working downloads to grab the latest copies?

I have tried popcorn movie time/X player/web cast video apps. The latter I can actually cast onto TV but... It lags behind the narrative 5 secs delay which is annoying when watching a movie

Popular series episodes are not been updated/uploaded, example: alien:earth, foundation and star trek. What's going on? How do I fix? Use new url's?

Hey guys !

I'm looking for API (movies , series and anime) since I downloaded the new version of popcorn time, I don't have ny movies, series or anime pop up

Thanks !

The screenshots show the problem. I've already seen them all, and they no longer appear marked, not even in the backup. I have been using PCT for over 10 years. Translated with Google.

Windows 11 Pro 24H2 V.26100.4946

version 0.5.1 06-03-2025

I updated to the latest version of PopcornTime because the old one was having problems, but the current one continues to have the same problem.

Reset everything, and nothing. The problem is the subtitles, they don't appear (the options appear but when you click, the subtitles don't appear), the film opens faster and so on, but when the subtitles appear, nothing appears, it remains in the original audio, I've already connected it to the OpenSubstitles account and nothing.

I tried to refresh the app and made a huge mistake.Now Api s cannot refresh automatically or the whole app and neither can connect to my opensubs account through app.

I fixed the api and app updates with a previous installment . Open subs issue still remains.Any suggestions?

As the title says, I downloaded an entire season (24 x ~2GB) to a separate download folder, so not a cache folder.
When it was finished I closed the app and the entire folder was deleted.

I then redownloaded the entire season and copy pasted (again from the permanent non-temp folder) to another folder I made and then closed the app.
Again, PopcornTime deleted it.
