+## Python video file server (mp4/mkv)
+This repo also includes a small Python server that serves local video files with **HTTP Range** support (required for HTML5 `<video>` seeking).
+
+- Put your files in: `./media/` (repo root)
+- Served as: `http://localhost:8001/media/<filename>`
+- List endpoint: `http://localhost:8001/api/media`
+
+### Install
+
+```bash
+python3 -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Run
+
+```bash
+python3 video_server.py
+```
+
+### Use in the web player
+Set the movie's `video_src` (or `vod_link`) to something like:
+
+- `http://localhost:8001/media/MyMovie.mp4`
+- `http://localhost:8001/media/MyMovie.mkv`
+
+If the Node app is on a different origin/port, the video server enables CORS by default. You can lock it down with:
+
+```bash
+export CORS_ORIGINS="http://localhost:5000"
