You can probably expect some additions to the interface as the Beta train pushes further along. The only other visual aspect is along the left-hand side - a fairly comprehensive genre list with categories ranging from Animation and Biography to Film-Noir and Fantasy, and a search field. The interface is extremely straightforward, with a Netflix instant queue-style quilt of film cover art popping up upon startup. The movie had an impressive array of eight available subtitle language options. Surprisingly, within 10 minutes of dialing in the Popcorn Time URL and downloading the needed software, we already had a 1080p copy of the film running beautifully (considering the quickness with which the program operates), with much of the film on the way to being entirely buffered. After an easy software installation, one can quickly browse through a library of new and still-in-theaters films and pick one to watch in 720p or 1080p HD resolution (it’s not all brand new or in-theaters stuff we came across films as old as 1945’s Notorious and 1951’s Strangers on a Train).Īs a quick quality test, we downloaded the software and booted up the recently-released Thor: The Dark World.
Currently under development for eventual Windows, Mac OSX and Linux releases, Popcorn Time is a handy tool for seasoned film (torrent) buffs and novice cinephiles alike. Now the site is starting to see some healthy traffic and word of mouth advertising. Popcorn Time sprung up on the Internet about a month ago, but recent coverage by TorrentFreak has placed it under the spotlight. Today, all one needs to avail themselves of torrented media is Popcorn Time.
But now those long-winded explanations and drawn-out instruction sheets are no longer necessary.
