CineVault - Movies, Series & Live TV OTT Script (Laravel Netflix-Style Streaming Platform)

CineVault — a complete streaming platform in one Laravel script

CineVault lets you launch your own Netflix-style streaming website: movies and series with an HLS player, live TV with a programme guide, subscription plans with Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, PayHere or bank transfer, one-paste IMDb / TMDB import, cloud video storage and a fully editable admin panel. Built on Laravel 13 with a browser installer. New in 1.1: every language has its own URL (/es, /hi, /ta ...) with hreflang tags and a multilingual sitemap.

New in 1.1: every language gets its own URL

Your main language stays at /movies; every other language lives under its code: /es/movies, /hi/series, /ta. Search engines index each language separately.

• hreflang, x-default and canonical tags on every page
• Sitemap lists every page in every language with its alternates
• The footer language menu jumps to the same page in the chosen language
• Four languages included; add Spanish, French, German or any code from the Translations page and its URL is live at once

Translate the whole site from the panel

Every interface string has an input per language, with an untranslated filter and a rescan button. No files to edit.

Search, filters and rich cards

Genre, language, country and rating filters, instant search suggestions, IMDb rating badges and free / premium labels, in any interface language.

Title pages with real data

Poster, IMDb rating and votes, Metascore, cast with photos, reviews, trailers, audio and subtitle tracks, watchlist and share.

Subscription plans and free trials

Unlimited plans with screens, quality, downloads, ads and profiles per plan. Free trial, coupons, referral rewards, invoices. Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, PayHere and bank transfer with admin approval.

Live TV with a programme guide

Channels by category, featured channels, now / next programme, EPG grid, M3U and XMLTV import, free or premium channels.

A full admin panel

Dashboard and analytics, catalogue, users, subscriptions, payments, plans, coupons, reviews, messages, pages, menus, ads, announcements, e-mail templates, staff roles and activity log.

IMDb / TMDB import and cloud storage

Paste an IMDb or TMDB link, preview and import ratings, cast, photos, reviews and episodes. Upload videos from the browser to Bunny Stream, Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Wasabi, Backblaze B2, Google Cloud Storage or your own server.

Note about the importer: IMDb often blocks direct requests from server IPs, so add your own free TMDB and OMDb API keys under Settings → Catalogue for a reliable import. The demo uses a basic OMDb key and returns limited data.

What you get

• Full Laravel source code (unencrypted) with the vendor folder
• Web installer and illustrated HTML documentation

• MySQL 8 or MariaDB 10.6+ (SQLite works for small sites)
• Apache or LiteSpeed with mod_rewrite (cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin) or Nginx

Install

1. Create an empty MySQL database and user in your hosting panel and select PHP 8.3 or newer.
2. Upload and extract the cinevault folder contents into your domain folder (public_html). The root .htaccess forwards requests to public/; enable "Show hidden files" in the file manager.
3. Open your-domain.com/install: requirements check, database, admin account, optional demo content.
4. Add the cron line shown on the last installer step.
5. Log in at /admin and open Settings: e-mail, payments, storage and catalogue keys.
6. Import titles with IMDb / TMDB import, add live channels and publish.

Add a language

Admin, Translations: type a code such as es, press Add language and translate. The page your-domain.com/es is live immediately.

Updating from 1.0.x
