Cliparr 3.1 just released with an overhauled native-like mobile experience and a new cropping tool.
- Release Announcement: cliparr.dev
- GitHub Release: GitHub
What is Cliparr?
Cliparr is an open-source, self-hosted companion tool that integrates directly with your Jellyfin and Plex media servers to make extracting video clips from what you are currently watching seamless.
Cliparr performs 100% of its media tasks, including transcoding, directly in the browser and works on all devices.
What is it for?
Creating clips from your media library: memes for forums, short clips/GIFs for social media, or clean video segments for personal archives and sharing.
What does it need to run?
Almost nothing. Any modern smartphone, tablet, or desktop can run Cliparr. Host it locally alongside your media server and install the PWA directly to your device. It requires no external internet connection and can edit local media completely offline.

Can it use the native subtitles yet without requiring us to manual add our own?
That was always the case! I only added custom subtitles somewhat recently. Either way, yes.
