Watch together with friends who run their own Usherr, no Discord needed: a one-time code links the two Usherrs through an encrypted relay.
In Broadcast: Server, People, Linked Usherrs.
In Classic or Neu: Settings, Movie night, Linked Usherrs.
Under Server, People (in Classic or Neu: Settings, Movie night). Switch on Link with other Usherrs: it’s off until you do. The line under it says whether the relay is connected, and warns if this server’s clock is off (screenings only start together with the right time).
Each Usherr keeps one outgoing connection to the Usherr Link Relay, run by the Usherr project. No port is opened and nobody sees your home address, and everything is encrypted and signed end to end, so the relay can’t read any of it. My own relay uses a relay you run yourself (the small usherr-relay program).
Type it in Name linked Usherrs see and press Save. The Fingerprint is there to compare with your friend, if you want to be sure you linked the right Usherr.
Press Make a code, then Copy, and send it to your friend. A code works once, for 24 hours; Cancel stops it early.
Got a code from a friend? Paste it under Join with a code and press Link. If their Usherr isn’t online right now, you’re linked as soon as it is (within 24 hours). A mistyped, used, cancelled or expired code says so.
Each link shows when it was last heard from. Rename changes its name here only; Unlink tells the other Usherr and stops the link on both sides at once. Next: invite them to a screening, or make a crew together.
