One month of Xperience, ~6,000 of you, and I read every single comment. Thank you.

One month ago today, Xperience went live.

I built it because I wanted a cleaner, better-looking way to browse and organize catalogs, and honestly I figured a handful of people might find it useful.

A month later, there are around 6,000 of you using it. I still don't quite have words for that.

I've tried to read everything: the praise, the "hey, this is broken," and the "can you please add…" It's shaped nearly every update. A few things people keep bringing up that mean a lot:

  • The posters and artwork (the part I obsessed over first)
  • Pushing changes straight to your account, no reinstalling the addon every time you tweak your setup
  • Collections that actually look clean and organized
  • The catalogs. Seeing Xperience in people's top lists still doesn't feel real

I want to be clear about one thing: this community is spoiled for choice right now. There are great tools out there and genuinely talented people building them. I'm not here to tell anyone to ditch what they love. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who took a chance on a brand-new addon in its first month.

As for what's next, a lot. A few things I'm heads-down on:

  • Faster, smarter search
  • Personalized recommendations
  • Even more catalogs, collections, and artwork sets

I'm shipping something every few days, and the roadmap keeps growing because of your feedback.

If you're using Xperience, thank you, sincerely. If there's something you wish it did, drop it below. I read everything, and there's a real chance it ends up in the app.

Here's to month two.

Back-to-Back Bangers - Xperience update: AI search, AI-built catalogs, and a fully customizable home layout

Another batch of updates landed on Xperience (the visual catalog builder for Nuvio — curate, style, and sync your streaming home with no JSON required). This is the biggest one yet, so here's the rundown.

Create catalogs with AI

You can now describe a catalog in plain English and Xperience builds it for you. "Mind-bending sci-fi from the last decade", "cozy mysteries for a rainy weekend" — type the prompt, preview the results before adding, and regenerate or tweak the prompt right from the editor if it's not quite right. It even names the catalog for you if you don't. AI catalogs live in their own section and drop straight into your home screen or collection folders.

There's also an "AI for you" row that recommends titles based on your taste, and it now properly skips everything you've already watched on Trakt.

AI search

Search doesn't have to be a title anymore. Ask for what you're in the mood for in natural language and it figures out what you mean. Regular search got smarter too: searching an actor or director now blends their filmography right into the results.

Home Layout

This one's been asked for since day one. You can now arrange your entire home screen exactly how you want it: drag any row anywhere, mix collections and catalogs freely instead of being stuck with fixed groups, and pin rows so your favorites stay locked at the top. The layout syncs across your devices.

Edit any catalog, per catalog

Every row now has its own editor: rename it, filter it by year, change the sorting, or shuffle it. No more one-size-fits-all rows.

Custom lists got a big upgrade

  • Add lists by ID from Trakt, MDBList, or public TMDB lists through a new import modal
  • Sort controls for Trakt, AniList, Simkl, and MDBList list catalogs
  • Connect your TMDB account for personal home rows
  • Importing from a Nuvio setup now converts your existing Trakt/TMDB/MDBList list sources into native, reusable catalogs, and you can name them

Quality-of-life

  • New filter to hide everything you've already watched, everywhere
  • New filter to hide content from specific countries (if K-dramas keep flooding your rows, this is for you)
  • Real IMDb ratings and English fallback for episode data, so episode lists stop showing blanks
  • More metadata languages with a searchable language picker
  • Hundreds of new cover art options: network logo sets in 17 styles, decades collections, anime backfills, and more

New: a complete Xperience guide (every page and option, in plain English)

A lot of you, especially folks just starting out, asked for a proper walkthrough, or weren't sure how Xperience is actually different from AIOMetadata. So I built one.

There's now a full guide on the site. It's free and needs no login:

https://xperience-app.com/guide

What's inside:

- What Xperience is, and a clear side-by-side with AIOMetadata

- A 5-minute quick start

- The setup wizard explained step by step: every option, what it does, and the gotchas (the TMDB v4 key, poster providers, filters, collections, the install link)

- Dedicated sections for Settings, Avatars, and Badges

- A plain-English glossary and an FAQ / troubleshooting section

It also follows your app language, so it's available in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, and Greek.

If you've ever wanted to point a friend at Xperience but they found it confusing, this is the link to send them.

Feedback welcome: if anything in the guide is unclear, missing, or wrong, drop a comment and I'll fix it. Same goes for anything you wish it covered.

New here? Start with the guide, then ask anything below and we'll help you get set up.

Xperience now lets you drop any public Trakt or MDBList list straight onto your Nuvio home

Another batch of updates landed on Xperience (the visual catalog builder for Nuvio, curate, style, and sync your streaming home with no JSON required). Starting with the big one.

Bring your own lists (Trakt + MDBList)

You can now paste any public Trakt or MDBList list URL and Xperience turns it into a real catalog. No JSON, no manifest editing.

  • Works as a home row (Step 2) and as a collection folder source (Step 3), grouped under a new "Custom" section
  • Just paste the URL and it figures out whether it's Trakt or MDBList on its own
  • Public Trakt lists need nothing, MDBList lists use your own MDBList key
  • The list name carries through so Nuvio shows it the way you'd expect

This is the one a lot of you have been asking for. If there's a curated list out there you love, it's now one paste away from being a row on your home screen.

Filters

  • Hide content I've already watched. New Step 1 toggle that drops titles you've finished on any connected tracker (Trakt, Simkl, AniList) from the discovery rows. It leaves your own tracker rows and search alone, and if a tracker is down it just leaves the row as-is instead of emptying it.
  • Exclude by country of origin. Hide titles from countries you pick (set KR if you want K-dramas out of the generic rows, for example) across every catalog and search.
  • Step 1 preferences got reorganized into clear sections (display language, content maturity, country of origin, content to hide), and the country picker is sorted alphabetically now.

Content & sources

  • World Cinema got a lot bigger. Added Greek, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Filipino, and Cantonese, plus Portuguese, Russian, and Turkish rows, each tuned per language with Latest and series rows.
  • Anime collection got reworked. Trending, Most Popular, and Top Rated now come from AniList so they line up with the MAL community packs, while Latest and Upcoming pull from TMDB so brand-new and unreleased stuff actually shows up. Also added an "Airing Now" row.
  • Greek is now a full app UI language and content language.
  • Cleaned up the browse sources. Popularity rows have vote floors now so a random spike can't push some unrated single-vote title to the top. Added more director rows (Ridley Scott, Cameron, Peter Jackson, del Toro, Coppola, Spike Lee, Greta Gerwig, and others) and new mood rows (Revenge, Magic, Coming of Age, Martial Arts, Vampire, Satire).
  • New Networks collection so you can browse by broadcast/cable network.
  • Also added a Runtime group (Short, Standard, Long, Epic), Kids family franchises (Toy Story, Shrek, etc.), a Trakt "Recommended For You" row, and did some folder cleanup (K-Drama moved out of Anime, among others).

Badges

Reworked badge colors. You can apply a color to all your badges or just one group, the panel got redesigned with a live preview, there's a custom color picker now, and the swatch colors actually match what shows up.

Builder & fixes

  • Step 4 remembers which Nuvio profile you last pushed to and preselects it.
  • Fixed a Nuvio login error that could wrongly kick you out of Xperience.
  • Fixed actor and director rows that wouldn't load for big-name actors with hundreds of credits. They page through properly now.

Cover art

New logomark cover sets for the Networks collection, and backfilled covers for the Decades, Anime, and World Cinema folders.

Xperience update: AniList, anime via Kitsu, personal Trakt & Simkl lists — and a new live uptime page

Pushed a batch of updates to Xperience (the visual catalog builder for Nuvio — curate, style, and sync your streaming home, no JSON required) over the last two days. Here's what's new.

New: a public Status page

You can now check the health of Xperience at any time:

https://xperience-app.com/status

  • Live status of the core platform (website, addon delivery, database/auth, asset CDN, sign-in captcha)
  • 90-day uptime history for each component
  • An incident & scheduled-maintenance feed, so you'll know about planned work ahead of time
  • Status of the third-party providers it relies on (TMDB, Trakt, Simkl, AniList, Kitsu, and more)

If something ever looks off, this is the fastest way to tell whether it's the service or your own setup. It auto-refreshes and works well on mobile.

Also shipped in the last two days

Content & sources

  • Anime overhaul: anime now comes from Kitsu with proper absolute episode numbering, so episodes line up correctly instead of being lumped into one giant season.
  • AniList integration: link your AniList account and pull your lists as rows (PunchPlay and Wetrakr are scaffolded as "coming soon").
  • Your personal Trakt lists as home rows, plus Trakt liked lists and Simkl completed/ratings/currently-watching with sorting.
  • Personal sources are now split into separate Trakt and Simkl sections.

Filters & control

  • Hide adult content toggle (on by default) and per-profile category exclusions (anime, reality, kids, documentaries, and more).
  • Live preview now shows the filters you have active.

Builder UX

  • Collapsible catalog sections with a single expand/collapse-all toggle in Steps 2 & 3.
  • Folder hero in the live preview now shows the title logo + backdrop.
  • Smoother scrolling, badge backgrounds that fill behind transparent logos, and assorted layout fixes.

Cover art

  • New logomark cover sets for film & TV collection folders.

Xperience update: brand-logo cover sets + Simkl support

Quick follow-up to my last post. Here’s what’s landed since then.

Brand-logo cover-art sets. Carrying on from the cover stuff last time, there’s now a set that drops the actual brand logo onto your studio and streaming-service folders. Around 23 studios are covered so far (A24, Marvel, DC, Pixar, Studio Ghibli, HBO, Lucasfilm, Lionsgate, Universal, Warner Bros, Paramount, Sony, DreamWorks, Illumination…) plus the streaming services. Each one comes in a few treatments (clean glow, duotone, monogram, etc.) in both landscape and portrait, so a whole row of brand folders ends up looking consistent.

Simkl support. If you’re on Simkl instead of (or as well as) Trakt, you can now hook it up. Works account-wide or per profile, and you can have both connected at the same time. Connecting it adds a “My Simkl Plan to Watch” row and pulls your Simkl Completed history into the AI “For You” recommendations.

A few smaller things that also went in:

  • The app’s now available in Italian (on top of English, German, Spanish, French and Portuguese).
  • Added TLC, HGTV and Food Network as folders under Streaming Services.
  • Detail pages are self-sufficient now, full cast (with photos), directors/writers, trailers, age ratings and release dates come straight from Xperience, so you don’t need Cinemeta/AIOMetadata installed to see them.
  • Search and non-TMDB lists (Trakt/Simkl/MDBList, IMDb Top 250, etc.) now show in your profile’s language instead of always defaulting to English.
  • Plus a round of catalog fixes so collection folders reliably resolve to streams.

If you use Simkl, curious how that’s working for you and which studio logos you’d want added next.

Xperience update: 4 new collection cover-art sets + filter your catalog by country of origin

A couple of Collection sets I have been working on:

New cover-art sets for your collections. Four new poster sets you can apply per collection in the Step 3 cover picker, each with one consistent style and font (the tile text matches the folder name):

  • Obsidian — a minimalist dark-gallery look (black gradient, silver motif, thin type). It covers every folder across By Decade (incl. era mixes like 90s Action), World Cinema, For You & Trending, New & Latest, Awards, and Anime, so a whole collection comes out consistent.
  • Mural / Mural Film / Mural Frame — three genre-art styles for all 23 genres: painterly double-exposure (Mural), and two cinematic photographic looks (Film, Frame).

Filter your catalog by country of origin. You can now restrict your whole catalog to content from the countries you actually watch:

  • Multi-select with search — pick any countries (Korean, Japanese, French, Spanish…), or leave it empty for everything (the default).
  • Backed by TMDB origin-country data, so it's accurate per title.
  • Applies across your catalog; set it once in Step 1 setup or later in Settings.

Great for building a focused regional catalog (e.g. K-content only) or filtering out origins you're not interested in.

Cover-set screenshots attached. Which set is your favorite?

New Xperience update: a brand-new landing page, way more catalog sources, Latest & Top Rated rows, and fresh cover art

Another round of updates is live. Picking up right where the last post left off, here's everything new.

A brand-new landing page

This is the big one. The site got a full redesign from the ground up: new layout, new components, and a much clearer pitch for what Xperience actually does and how to get started. If you've sent the link to someone before and it didn't quite click, give it another look. It finally looks like the project it's become.

Consider chipping in to keep it going

Along with the new landing page there's now a Support option built right in. Xperience is free and that's not changing, but the CDN, hosting, and API costs are real and come out of pocket. If the app has saved you time or made movie night better, a small donation genuinely helps keep the lights on and the updates coming. Totally optional, no pressure, and hugely appreciated.

A lot more catalog sources

Big expansion here:

  • World Cinema collections so you can browse beyond the usual Hollywood rows
  • Era Mixes catalogs for diving into specific decades
  • New decade, anime, studio, and runtime-based sources for much finer-grained browsing

Latest & Top Rated tabs on genre folders

Genre folders now have Latest and Top Rated tabs, so you can flip between what's new and what's best-reviewed without leaving the row.

More control under the hood

Added declarative TMDB filter and sort knobs, plus a max-rating filter so you can keep things within whatever rating ceiling you want. Cleaner content control across every catalog.

Fresh cover art

  • New Anime cover sets across the Kaptain, Editorial, and Gradient styles
  • New World Cinema covers to match the new collections

Smaller fixes

  • Pinned the profiles header so only the cards scroll now (no more losing the header on long lists)

As always, tell me what's working, what's broken, and what you want next. Thanks for using it.

Weekend Xperience update: endless catalog rows, smarter AI recs, a big mobile cleanup, and faster loading

Spent the weekend shipping a bunch of stuff and wanted to keep you all in the loop. Here's everything that landed Friday through today.

Catalog rows no longer stop at 100
The biggest one. Catalogs were capped at 100 items, so studio/network rows (Apple TV+, Netflix, etc.) just dead-ended. They now paginate properly, so rows keep loading as you scroll deep instead of hitting a wall.

Smarter AI recommendations
The Gemini recommender now looks at your full watched history from Trakt instead of just your recent plays. Recommendations should feel a lot more "you."

Mobile got a serious cleanup

  • Sticky search and toolbar headers so controls stay put while you scroll
  • Fixed a scroll trap a few of you ran into
  • Bigger touch targets and responsive text sizing
  • More compact wizard headers so there's less wasted space

Wizard Step 3 improvements

  • New "Delete all collections" button to start fresh fast
  • A "Resolve folder issues" dialog that cleans up empty folders in one go

Badges

  • Regenerated the golden animated pack
  • Better stream-matching across every badge set
  • Cleaner badge + group management and a more consistent editor

Avatars

  • Better search, filtering, and sorting
  • Smoother gallery transitions

A few more things

  • New Illumination and Legendary studio covers
  • Moved covers/avatars/badges to a CDN, so assets load noticeably faster
  • Trakt logins auto-refresh now (fewer surprise re-logins)
  • Clearer messaging when you hit an API quota
  • A little confetti when your setup pushes to Nuvio successfully

As always, let me know what's working, what's broken, and what you want next. Thanks for using it.

Weekend Xperience update: endless catalog rows, smarter AI recs, a big mobile cleanup, and faster loading

Spent the weekend shipping a bunch of stuff and wanted to keep you all in the loop. Here's everything that landed Friday through today.

Catalog rows no longer stop at 100
The biggest one. Catalogs were capped at 100 items, so studio/network rows (Apple TV+, Netflix, etc.) just dead-ended. They now paginate properly, so rows keep loading as you scroll deep instead of hitting a wall.

Smarter AI recommendations
The Gemini recommender now looks at your full watched history from Trakt instead of just your recent plays. Recommendations should feel a lot more "you."

Mobile got a serious cleanup

  • Sticky search and toolbar headers so controls stay put while you scroll
  • Fixed a scroll trap a few of you ran into
  • Bigger touch targets and responsive text sizing
  • More compact wizard headers so there's less wasted space

Wizard Step 3 improvements

  • New "Delete all collections" button to start fresh fast
  • A "Resolve folder issues" dialog that cleans up empty folders in one go

Badges

  • Regenerated the golden animated pack
  • Better stream-matching across every badge set
  • Cleaner badge + group management and a more consistent editor

Avatars

  • Better search, filtering, and sorting
  • Smoother gallery transitions

A few more things

  • New Illumination and Legendary studio covers
  • Moved covers/avatars/badges to a CDN, so assets load noticeably faster
  • Trakt logins auto-refresh now (fewer surprise re-logins)
  • Clearer messaging when you hit an API quota
  • A little confetti when your setup pushes to Nuvio successfully

As always, let me know what's working, what's broken, and what you want next. Thanks for using it.

Small Xperience update

Pushed a few improvements over the last 2 days:

  • Live preview redesign — the preview now has a TV/Mobile toggle and actually looks like the real apps. TV mode shows the Nuvio TV home with the full hero (backdrop, logo, synopsis) when you click a title, and Mobile mode renders your setup inside a phone frame with the swipeable hero, section headers, and bottom nav. Way easier to tell what your addon will look like before you install it
  • Final step cleanup — the last step of the wizard used to throw like 10 buttons at you across four cards. Now there's one "Push to Nuvio" button that saves your addon and collections in one go (with a little confetti moment when it lands), and the Stremio install + manual setup options are tucked into collapsible sections below it. If you haven't linked your Nuvio account yet, the button walks you through that first (you can still publish with urls)
  • Light mode is real now — the app was basically dark-only before. Light theme actually works, contrast is fixed in a bunch of spots, and switching themes does a smooth crossfade instead of flashing
  • Hide from home works on Mobile too — catalogs you mark as hidden from home used to still show up on Nuvio Mobile's home grid. They now stay hidden there while still working inside your collection folders
  • Badge editing got smoother — editing a badge opens a proper dialog now, and you can swap a badge's look from another set without rebuilding it

If something looks off, let me know.

Pushed a bunch of updates today: Avatars, Nuvio account linking, new covers + badges

Shipped a good chunk of stuff today, here's the rundown.

Avatars page
New gallery of profile pictures for Nuvio. Tap one to copy its image URL and paste it into your profile, or filter by franchise (Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, Bluey, Nat Geo…). About 270 in there right now.

Link your Nuvio account
The big one. You can now connect your Nuvio account in Settings. Once it's linked you can:

  • assign an avatar straight to a profile instead of copy/pasting URLs
  • push your manifest and collections to a specific profile right from the wizard, no more juggling addon URLs by hand

You pick which profile each push lands on, and if you run more than one Nuvio account you can point different profiles at different accounts.

New cover art
Added 34 streaming-service logo cover sets for collections — a few different looks (duotone, spotlight, monogram, etc.) with both landscape and portrait versions. Nice if you want your Netflix/Max/Apple TV rows to actually look the part.

Badges rebuild
Redid the signature sets with proper logos across the board, plus some new ones: SeaDex, IMAX Enhanced, DTS / DTS-HD MA, Crave, Crunchyroll, and the Dolby combos (Atmos/TrueHD + Vision). Also threw in a "Ghost" set if you just want the bare logos with no chip background.

Logos on titles
Movies and shows now show their logo art instead of plain text when it's available.

Small batch of Xperience updates, new Badge Studio + catalog/poster fixes

Pushed a bunch to Xperience over the last two days, figured I'd drop a quick rundown since most of it ends up in Nuvio.

The big new thing is a Badge Studio. You pick a badge style, tweak it, hit publish, and you get a hosted JSON link you paste into Nuvio under Settings → Layout → Fusion badge JSON URL. You can stack up to 3 packs and choose top or bottom placement.

Credit where it's due: this whole thing started from an HTML file u/voidxo built and sent me. He couldn't keep up with it and didn't want it thrown away, so he passed it on and just asked to be credited. So big thanks to u/voidxo, wouldn't exist without him. I rebuilt it into the app and added a few badge styles on top (some glass/gradient/outline looks with real logos, plus all the usual 4K/HDR/Atmos/codec stuff) tuned to render cleanly in Nuvio's chips.

Other stuff from the last couple days:

  • Catalogs run on Trakt now instead of MDBList. Should be way more reliable, fewer empty or broken rows.
  • TMDB lists pull all their pages now, so big lists actually load fully instead of cutting off after the first page.
  • Better poster fallback so you get fewer blank posters when a provider doesn't return one.
  • New Editorial Portrait cover set for the Awards & Canon collections.

Screenshots of the new badge page below. Let me know if anything breaks. https://xperience-app.com

Some quality-of-life updates went out this week

Pushed a few things to Xperience this week that should make setup less of a chore. Quick rundown:

Settings page (the big one)

You can finally save your API keys (MDBList, TMDB, the poster providers, Gemini) in one place. Set them once and every new profile you make fills them in automatically, so you're not pasting the same keys over and over every time you start a new profile. There's also a button to push your saved keys into all your existing profiles at once if you want.

Account stuff and the dark/light toggle live on that page now too.

Cover art

Added a picker so you can switch the look of your collections and folders. A few styles to choose from now (gradient, editorial, and the Kaptain set), plus a bunch of new art for genres, streaming services, and the trending rows.

Editing on your phone

Folder editing actually works properly on mobile now. Sticky headers, smoother scrolling, way less fighting with the layout.

Smaller stuff

- Your changes autosave as you go, so closing the tab won't wipe your edits.

- Added Portuguese and Hindi as content languages (on top of French and German).

That's it for now. If something feels off or you've got ideas, drop a comment. I read everything.

New in Xperience: swap every cover in a collection at once, and a pile of fixes from your comments

Hey everyone,

Quick follow up to my first post from last week. The response was way better than I expected, a ton of you signed up, built profiles, and actually sent feedback. Thank you, genuinely. Adoption has been great and honestly most of what I shipped this week came straight out of your comments.

If you missed the first post, it's here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Nuvio/comments/1tqhm9n/built_a_web_tool_to_configure_your_nuvio_and/

Tool: https://xperience-app.com

The new thing: cover sets

You can now restyle an entire collection's art in one click instead of editing every folder by hand. Open a collection, hit Apply cover set, pick a look, and every folder swaps at once. The cover image, the hover GIF, and the tile shape all change together so the whole row stays consistent.

The first sets were inspired by Kaptain's community collection covers. Those are genuinely what got me going on this, so shoutout to them. Right now you've got Default, Kaptain's Actors, Kaptain's Genres, and Kaptain's Trending, with more on the way.

Fixes since the last post

- Better Posters integration added, a few of you asked for it

- Fixed Better Posters covers that were falling back to generic TMDB art

- Spanish added, plus a few more languages

- Squashed the import bugs so the big community packs (like Nuvio Perfect Collections) come in clean

- Sorted out the Brave loading issue, turned out to be a local storage thing

There's a subreddit now

Made a little home for the project over at r/Nuvio_Xperience. Updates, questions, bug reports, screenshots of your setups, all welcome there.

Feedback and collab

Still want to hear what feels off or what's missing. And specifically on cover sets, if you make cover art or have a style you'd want as a set, I'd love to team up and add more. Drop a comment here or come find me in the new sub.
