Everything you watch, in one place

Live TV & TV Guide

Click a channel and it plays right in the banner. A scrolling guide shows a week ahead, with reminders and catch-up.

A Home made for you

Continue Watching, what's on your favourite channels now, and recommendations worked out on your Mac.

Movies & Series

Rich detail pages, one season at a time, resume points, and Up Next as the credits roll.

Multi-View

Watch up to four channels at once, side by side, each one playing on its own.

Record & download

Record with one click, or by keyword with Series Link. Download films and episodes to watch offline.

Cast to your TV

Send what's playing to a TV or speaker on your network, then bring it back to your Mac from the same spot.

A beautiful picture

HDR, an Ambient Glow round the picture, Match Frame Rate for smooth sport, deinterlacing and sharpening.

Subtitles & captions

Subtitles you can retime, plus experimental live captions made on your Mac for channels that have none.

At home on your Mac

A mini-player, smooth full screen, media keys, a parental lock your Mac checks, and sync between your Macs.

Your viewing stays on your Mac

  • Keychain for every sign-in. Server addresses, usernames and passwords are kept in the encrypted macOS Keychain.
  • No tracking of any kind. No telemetry, analytics, accounts or advertising. Nothing you watch is sent to us.
  • Sandboxed. The app reaches only your own service, the update feed and the folders you choose.

ElBee Player is a media player. It provides no channels, playlists or content; you sign in with your own service and are responsible for having the right to watch what you play.
