详情介绍:
Movie Engine helps you build a movie, TV series, and video-on-demand website with WordPress. Manage movies, series, seasons, episodes, and people; import metadata from TMDb; configure video sources; and display your catalog using blocks or shortcodes. Powered by our proprietary Custom Movie Engine Player (CMEPlayer) — a high-performance OTT video streaming engine featuring adaptive HLS streaming, multi-resolution quality switcher, dual WebVTT/SRT subtitles, thumbnail scrubbing, 2x hold-to-boost speed, audio booster, and mobile touch gestures.
Use Movie Engine for a movie database, a streaming-style catalog, an IPTV directory, an ad-supported video website, or a membership platform. Some advanced monetization and automation features require Movie Engine Pro.

- New: Monetization Video Ads Upgrades — Added support for custom video ads with
logo_url,display_url,cta_text,midroll_offset, andmidroll_repeatcontrols. - New: App Stream Authorization Filter Hook (
movie_engine_stream_is_authorized_app) in Stream_Controller allowing cryptographic HMAC-SHA256 native app streaming requests to bypass browser-specific anti-hotlinking while keeping assets protected from unauthorized extraction. - New: Mobile App API Integration Action Hook (
movie_engine_render_pro_mobile_app_api_card) in ApiSettings. - New: Mobile App Settings Sanitization Filter Hook (
movie_engine_sanitize_mobile_app_api_settings) in Settings. - New: Modern Pro Admin UI Styles, card layout enhancements, badge styling, and dark mode support for mobile and TV app API management.
- Fix: Prevent duplicate player mount race conditions and video request aborts during server toggles.
- Fix: Stream controller lifecycle and access control authorization headers for cross-platform playback.
- Security: Direct video stream hits in the browser address bar or hotlinks from external websites are blocked with strict referer and origin verification. External browser hits automatically redirect to the host single movie or episode page.
- Security: Subnet IP binding and signed streaming URLs protect video assets against unauthorized sharing and playback extraction.
- New: Studios & production companies shortcode ([movie_engine_studios]) now supports pagination ("true"/"false"), search filter input ("true"/"false"), and slug-based or ID-based include/exclude filtering.
- New: Studios shortcode supports limit, offset, and orderby (name, count, id, rand) parameters.
- Fix: Mobile header site logo and branding title click blocking resolved with proper pointer-events and stacking context.
- Fix: Mobile header search toggle icon visibility restored across responsive breakpoints.
- Fix: Mobile header search input collision fixed with clean full-width header takeover, smoothly hiding the logo and menu toggle while search is open.
- Fix: Prevent multiple simultaneous video playback when toggling servers or browser tabs.
- Fix: PSR-4 metabox autoloading and player stream 403 authorization handling.
- New: Settings → SEO. Set the title and description for movies, TV series, seasons, episodes, and people. Use {title}, {year}, {genre}, {overview}, and {site_name}. Empty values are left out.
- New: Schema is printed for movies, TV series, seasons, episodes, and people. A page with no poster leaves out the image. A page with no overview leaves out the description. TMDb scores are not shown as reviews collected on your site.
- New: Settings → General still has the schema and Open Graph switches. Those switches now control what is printed on the page.
- New: When Rank Math, Yoast SEO, or All in One SEO is active, that plugin prints the title, description, and social tags. Movie Engine fills an empty title or description, and adds movie or TV schema only when that plugin does not already have it. If more than one of those plugins is active, Movie Engine does not add another set of tags.
- New: A new import saves the title and description from the templates. Titles already on the site use the templates the next time someone opens the page. You do not need to import them again.
- New: Settings → Automation → Telegram. Each site uses its own bot token and channel. The saved token is not shown again.
- New: Publishing a movie or TV series sends one message with the poster, title, year, rating, genres, description, and a view button. Episodes imported with that new series do not send their own message for 24 hours. An episode added after that sends only when New episode message is on.
- New: A bulk import sends one list after the run. Choose how many titles to show, from 1 to 10. The rest are a Read more button. A single title still sends its own message.
- New: A fallback image from the Media Library is used when a message has no poster, including every bulk list.
- New: Weekly and monthly top views and top rated lists stay off until you enable them. Each list sends at most 10 titles.
- Fix: Disable Right Click no longer opens the ads link on its own. A phone long-press only hides the menu. The ads link opens on a mouse right-click or an Inspect shortcut (F12, Ctrl+Shift+I).
- Fix: Single Episode page mobile layout and responsive design. Video player stays at the top with single-row scrollable server switcher below it, trending section positioning is fixed, and episode list cards show clean episode number, title, runtime badge, and play button.
- New: Monetization → Fake Player tab and player overlay hook (
movie_engine_player_container_overlay) with responsive screen wrapper styles. - New: Lazy Load Player / Click-to-Play option (Settings → Player → General). Defers video player and external iframe loading until the visitor clicks to play, rendering a sleek backdrop and play button. Greatly improves initial page load speed for pages with heavy external embed sources.
- Fix: WordPress Media Uploader (
wp_enqueue_media()) availability across all MovieEngine settings admin pages. - Fix: Monetization settings sanitizer properly handles and persists Fake Player checkbox options.
- New: Library, Grid, and Search can show a TMDb list. Add
tmdb_type="day"for today’s trending,weekfor this week,now_playingfor movies in cinemas or series on the air,popular,top_rated, orupcoming. Example:[movie_engine_library post_type="movie_engine_movie" tmdb_type="day" limit="16"]. Only movies and series already imported on the site appear, in the same order as TMDb. The list is saved for one hour, so the page does not call TMDb on every visit. - New: In the block editor, select the Library, Grid, or Search block. Under Query, choose TMDb list. Leave it on None to keep sorting the titles already on your site.
- Fix: Trending, Top rated, New releases, and Upcoming still sort your own library. Choosing one of those no longer falls back to the newest posts.
- Fix: The TV Series list keeps the real episode total when episodes are added after the season. Later imports update that saved number without counting the whole catalog on every list load.
- New: Content Requests — visitors can ask for a movie or TV series with
[movie_engine_request_form]. The form can also show on empty search results and in live search when enabled under Movie Engine → Requests → Settings. - New: Movie Engine → Requests admin — filter by status, search, bulk delete, and mark requests pending, approved, available, or rejected. HTML emails notify admins of new requests and requesters when status changes (optional reply message).
- New: After a title is imported, a matching request can link automatically and move to Available. With Movie Engine Pro, Find content opens Bulk Import with the request prefilled.
- Fix: Form fields and live search use a single focus ring (no stacked outline + shadow).
- New: Library, Grid, and Search can list titles from Available content requests. Add
content_requests="available". Example:[movie_engine_library content_requests="available" limit="20" pagination="true"]. Only linked (Already added) movies and series appear. Limit and pagination work like a normal library. In the block editor, under Query, choose Content requests → Available (linked).
- Deleting a TV series also removes its seasons and episodes. Deleting a season removes that season’s episodes. Deleting one episode removes only that episode. Restoring from Trash restores the linked items too.
- Fix: Watch Page on small screens keeps server buttons in two columns inside the page. Long server names stay on one line. Slider arrows no longer stick out and create a sideways scroll.
- Fix: Episode page on small screens stacks the series title and season label, keeps the date and runtime on one line, and keeps Add to Watchlist on one line.
- Fix: A slider with no width no longer freezes the page while building dots.
- Fix: The TV Series admin list saves season and episode totals on each series, so opening the list does not count every episode again.
- Fix: A series page keeps an ordered list of season and episode IDs. Later views load only the current episode page, not metadata for the whole catalog.
- Fix: Related titles are chosen from a short recent set. Rating and views lists reuse a saved ID list for 15 minutes.
- New: Disable Right Click ads link (Player → Security). When the option is on, a link field appears.
- Right-click, Inspect shortcuts, and an already-open Inspect window send the visitor to that link. If the link is empty, the page stays covered until Inspect is closed.
- Right-click is blocked on the page and on ad slots (header, sidebar, footer, popup, corner, and player ads).
- Fix: External Player URL templates keep placeholders such as
{tmdb_id}when settings are saved.
- New: Import Images setting (Settings → API) — choose Load from TMDb (remote URLs) or Download to Media Library for movie, TV series, season, and episode posters/stills.
- New: Poster Image URL meta and Media tab field — Featured Image overrides remote URL when set (same pattern as person photos).
- Improved: Frontend poster resolution uses Featured Image → TMDb poster URL → episode still fallback across cards, heroes, player, SEO, widgets, and search.
- New: Person Profile Image URL (TMDb) — import stores a remote URL instead of downloading every actor photo into the Media Library.
- New: Person photo priority — Featured Image first, then TMDb profile URL, then placeholder (single, cards, cast, admin list).
- Fix: Watch Page sidebar no longer prints raw
[movie_engine_ad_sidebar]when ads are disabled. - Fix: Admin Persons “Photo” column shows TMDb URL when no Featured Image is set.
- Added Popup ads control with delay, dismiss memory, and optional re-show after close.
- Added Sticky bottom-right ads with minimize strip and optional full close.
- Added Sidebar ad slot (300x250) in Monetization → Ad Slots for Watch Page and
[movie_engine_ad_sidebar]. - Added Single Movie layout style: Classic (
/player/) or Watch Page (inline player). - Added TMDb Discover helpers for language, country, and genre filters.
- Fixed Container Max Width setting (removed hardcoded 1290px override).
- Fixed Watch Page Player Top ad so only one ad shows above the player.
- Fixed empty or placeholder-only ad codes (e.g.
#) so they are not rendered.
- Movie Engine Library — full library with filters, layouts, and pagination options.
- Movie Engine Grid — movie/series grid without the search UI.
- Movie Engine Search — library with search enabled.
