Lumen vs NasV

Lumen is a personal video library and player designed to give you complete control over how you organize, browse, and enjoy your videos. Import videos from Photos, Files, or supported storage locations, create custom collections, build playlists, and tailor the playback experience to match the way you watch. Whether you’re managing a handful of favorite clips or a large video library, Lumen helps keep everything organized and easy to access. Unlike many video players, Lumen focuses on customization, flexibility, and privacy. Your videos remain under your control, the app is designed to work with the media you already own, and unlike many other video player apps, Lumen does not use any ads at all.

Your photos, videos and NAS. One library, four ways to watch. Open your own media from Photos, authorized folders or an SMB / WebDAV NAS. Find content in Library and resume where you left off. FOUR VIEWING MODES Classic gives you full playback controls. Living Room Frame puts family photos first. Travel Replay revisits journeys by year with a shuffled queue. Editor Review uses a filmstrip to switch between media, inspect file information and rate photos. A CLEARER LIBRARY Browse collections with compact controls and clear loading states. Search filenames, sort by name, date or size, filter photos and videos, and return to favorites, playlists and viewing history. MORE CONTROL WHILE WATCHING Browse photos and videos together. Adjust fit or fill, playback speed, audio tracks, subtitles and the sleep timer. Apply zoom, rotation and mirroring directly from the player. NasV attempts recovery when network playback stalls and provides clearer failure messages. Support for MP4, MOV, MKV, TS and other files depends on codecs, source and device capabilities. YOUR CONTENT STAYS YOURS No NasV account or ads. Your device accesses the sources you select directly, without routing media through a developer media server. NAS credentials are stored in the system Keychain. NasV does not provide movies or other media. Access only content you have the right to use.
