METADATA PROVIDERS
FluxPlay Cloud acts as a caching middle-man between selfhost servers and upstream metadata providers. You enable providers per media type and section, self-hosted libraries still decide ordered fallback, and Cloud handles rate limits and image proxying.
Movies & TV Shows
TMDB | Metadata | Primary source for movie/TV descriptions, cast, and posters. |
MDBList | Ratings | Optional ratings aggregation used as a metadata enrichment source. |
OMDb | Ratings | Optional fallback for additional ratings and poster URLs. |
Fanart.tv | Art | High-resolution logos, clear-art, and backdrops (enrichment). |
AniList | Anime | Keyless GraphQL provider for anime/manga metadata and cover art. |
MyAnimeList | Anime | Anime/manga metadata (requires client id or token). |
Books & Comics
AniList
GraphQL for manga series, staff, and cross-media links.
MyAnimeList
Volumes, tracking fallback, and cross-media links.
ComicVine
Western comic metadata standard.
Google Books
Novels and standard literature.
Music & Audio
ListenBrainz
Open-source scrobbling stats.
Last.fm

Rate Limit Management
FluxPlay Cloud automatically respects provider API limits. Provider matrix toggles and org-wide availability are configured in the Admin Console under Providers.
Selfhost Servers
Selfhost servers call FluxPlay Cloud cache endpoints (search/title/images). Cloud stores normalized IDs and can enrich images from multiple providers to keep clients stable even if a provider is temporarily unavailable.
