F.A.Q.
Translated by @wuffe
What is Kinonet?
Kinonet - it's a robot that automatically searches for movies on Internet. These are not pirated resources. We do not store movies.
What are the characteristics of the bot?
Speed. Simplicity. Minimalism. Movies are found through Google, so it allows you to find movies in different languages
In which language is Kinonet written?
Initially in PHP. Then it was rewritten in GO.
How many movie movies are available on Kinonet?
Over 13016 and 14000 series (in Russian only)
How it works?
We have a database that stores information about movies. When you send the name of the movie to the bot, it checks first in this database, and if it finds the information corresponding to the movie, it connects to Google the API to search the movie file (Search with the following parameters: name and year of the movie), it finds different sites and tries to extract the .MP4 link of the movie (among the first five sites found with Google Search). Therefore the bot is not a pirate.
Why the bot can't find some movies?
We can add the movie information to the database but we can't do anything if the bot can't find the .mp4 file from the movie as it searches for third-party resources. So it is necessary to wait until they add the movie. This happens most often with the latest movies or the very old ones.
Update. In the new version of the bot you now have the possibility to add movies. To do this, you must have a direct link to the .mp4 file. To add it you will need to run the / addVideo command
How to watch movies with subtitles?
Use a third-party video player. We recommend using MX Player or VLC.
These applications are free (downloadable from the Playstore) and support subtitles (automatic search).
Link to MX Player on Google Play
How to download the movie?
Reset the default opening settings
Find a movie on the bot and click on "Watch"
The application menu (continue with) opens, select the download application you are using
If you are not using a download application, open the movie in a browser and download it
How to complain about the movie?
The possibility of adding the video file of the movie has certain consequences. For example, a user can add a "not suitable for all" video (+18). If you find a video of this kind, do not hesitate to let us know - @kinonetDev. We will delete the video in the day. You can also manually remove the video uploaded by other users. To do this, click the "Update Video" button and enter another address (or leave it blank) for the .mp4 file
What about advertising?
There will never be any advertising on Kinonet
