## Features
- **Native Desktop Experience**: Serves Any Media Web Client in a native desktop application.
- **Fixes Plex Windows Arm's annoying bugs**: No more skipping, black screen and stuttery UI!
- **Optimized Performance**: Built with Tauri for minimal resource usage and fast startup times.
- **Change Url**: Change the URL to any web client server you want. i.e tailscale VPN or local network
- **Control Video Brightness** Change video brightness with `alt + [`and `alt + ]`.
- **Picture in Picture Mode**: Toggle between normal and picture-in-picture mode with a simple keyboard shortcut `alt + P`.
- **Video Enhancement**: Real-time GPU-accelerated sharpening with multiple presets including Contrast Adaptive Sharpening (CAS). See [Video Enhancement Documentation](docs/video-enhancement.md).
- **RTX VSR**: Works with NVIDIA RTX Super Resolution, making your media extra crisp.
- **RTX HDR**: Works with NVIDIA RTX HDR, making SDR content better looking on HDR monitors.
## Usage
1. Launch the application
2. Click "Continue to Web Client" on the welcome screen
