Keys grant access to HLS stream URLs without a dashboard login. Anyone holding a key can stream anything inside its scope.
Handing out a key. Two URL shapes work, both scoped to the key:
Direct HLS (VLC, mpv, embeds, any HLS player):
https://…/s/<key>/<Folder>/<Episode>/master.m3u8
Browser watch page (no login needed):
https://…/watch.html?k=<key>&p=/<Folder>/<Episode>.mkv
In the library, right-click any converted video and choose Copy stream link to build these automatically.
