How it works
At its most basic level, madlad.tv provides a browser based torrent client.
We provide an in browser streaming torrent client via a library called webtorrent. Using the browser version of webtorrent comes with limitations, specifically a lack of usable peers and limited codec support from browsers themselves.
To work around these limitations, we have created an optional server download and an account system. We use your account only to connect you securely to your server from the outside world.
If you've downloaded the server and connected it to your account, your server will do all of the torrenting (connecting to many more peers), then change the format as needed and stream directly to you over https. The server also supports watching together, so bring a friend!
