Connect media sources
The first Waitlist source set focuses on 115 cloud drive and local videos, with more cloud drives, NAS, and WebDAV sources planned.
Cloud drive / local disk / NAS media bridge
Watch huge videos on Quest / Plex without downloading them first
CloudPop bridges cloud-drive and local libraries into your local media setup. It exposes stable local entries, then proxies the real stream during playback so VR / 4K videos can be browsed, indexed, and played like local files.

Pain point
VR / 4K videos that weigh dozens of GB should not require a download-first workflow.
Downloads take time, consume local storage, and force you to move files between playback devices.
When Plex scans a mounted cloud drive, thumbnails, metadata, and probing may trigger many remote reads.
Skybox, VLC, TVs, and tablets often need different paths to the same video library.
How it works
Compress the playback path into three steps.
CloudPop does not replace your player. It creates a stable, scannable, proxyable local entry between your media source and playback devices.
02 · STEP
Generate stable entries
Turn remote or local videos into media-library entries and expose stable local playback URLs through CloudPop.
03 · STEP
Play on the local network
Access the library through Plex, DLNA, STRM, or direct players. CloudPop reads the real stream when playback starts.
Pipeline
A full path from source to VR device.
Every node stays on your local network. CloudPop sits in the middle to scan, index, and proxy, so remote content appears as a local media library.

Use cases
Built for VR playback, useful for regular local-network playback too.
Device names help users recognize their workflow and do not imply official compatibility. Start with players that support DLNA, Plex, or local-network playback.
Quest / Pico + Skybox
Discover CloudPop from a VR player through DLNA, then browse cloud-drive or local-library VR videos directly.
Plex media library
Let Plex scan the local media entries generated by CloudPop while keeping posters, metadata, and multi-device browsing.
TV / tablet / VLC
Use DLNA, Plex, or HTTP streaming players on the same local network to access the same video library.
First guide
Use 115 cloud drive as the first complete playback example.
CloudPop keeps a broader multi-source positioning, while 115 is the first practical example because it is the initial supported cloud source with a clear large-video use case.
- Connect 115 with QR login
- Choose a video folder and generate local media entries
- Play from Skybox, VLC, or Plex

Comparison
Not every media problem should be solved with mounting or downloading.
Option A
Manual download
Fine for one-off playback, but every device switch means moving the file again.
Most stable playbackFully offline
Option B
Cloud drive mounting
Feels like a local disk, but library scans may trigger heavy remote reads.
Familiar browsingNo extra service
CloudPop Recommended
Local entries + playback-time proxy
Scans stay local; the real stream is fetched only at playback. Built for large libraries.

FAQ
Questions before joining the Waitlist.
Which media sources does CloudPop support now?
The current Waitlist focuses on 115 cloud drive and local videos. CloudPop is designed as a multi-source media bridge, with more cloud drives, NAS, WebDAV, and object storage sources possible later.
Does it work with every VR headset?
We do not claim universal compatibility. If a player on the device supports DLNA, Plex, local-network libraries, or HTTP streaming, it may work with CloudPop. The real experience depends on the player, network, and video encoding.
How is this different from AList or WebDAV mounting?
CloudPop is designed so media servers scan local entries and access the real stream only during playback, reducing remote reads caused by scanning, thumbnails, and probing.
