Orpheum
A Private Media Server
Orpheum is a private media server — like Netflix, but free, ad-free, and by invitation only.
• Content: Thousands of movies, hundreds of TV shows with thousands of episodes, and nearly 100,000 music tracks.
• Requests: Don’t see something you want? Request it. Most requests appear within minutes to a few days.
• Cost: Nothing. Orpheum is a hobby, not a business.

P.S. You’ll have received an additional email from Plex — ignore it, it’s automated and harmless.

Next Steps
Once you’ve joined Orpheum and created a Plex account, install the Plex app and optionally adjust a few settings.

Install Plex (Required)

Plex is the free app you’ll use to watch — available for nearly every platform.

  1. Install it on every device you plan to use. ⓘ
  2. Or watch in any web browser, though the apps give a better experience.
  3. Open the app, sign in with your Plex credentials, and start watching.

Request Content (Optional)

If something you’d like to watch isn’t on Orpheum, request it via Seerr.

  1. Go to seerr.asktheubergeek.duckdns.org.
  2. Sign in with your Plex credentials.
  3. Search or browse Movies and Series, then click Request on anything you want.

Manage your requests:

  • Check request status under Requests in Seerr’s sidebar.
  • Click your account icon (upper right) to customize your settings.
  • Optional: enable auto-requesting from your Plex watchlist. ⓘ

Privacy (Optional)

All Orpheum connections are encrypted, but Plex has its own commercial interests — ads, rentals, live TV, and data collection.

Plex displays its own commercial libraries — rentals, ads, live TV — alongside Orpheum’s. You can hide these and forget them.

To opt out of Plex’s data collection:

Support

  • You’ve been added to media@asktheubergeek.net, a low-volume support list for questions and issues. Typical response time is under 24 hours.
  • You can unsubscribe at any time without affecting your server access.
