Settings
Each server has its own Settings tab. Your preferences are stored on the server, per user — set them once and every device you sign in on uses them.
Language preferences
Choose your preferred spoken language and subtitle language. When a movie or episode offers multiple audio tracks or subtitles, the player picks your preferred ones automatically; you can still override per video from the player controls.
Playback settings
Tune how media is streamed to this device's account:
- Direct play — play files as-is when your device supports the format, for the best quality and lowest server load.
- Transcoding — let the server convert media on the fly when needed.
- Maximum video height — cap the resolution (for example on a metered or slow connection).
Because these live on the server, they follow you across devices.
Cluster info
The cluster page shows the health of your Ister server: the nodes it runs on and their status. Useful for a quick "is everything up?" check.
Activity
The activity page shows recent happenings on the server — what has been played and when.
