Adaptive HLS, tuned for anime
Crisp 1080p HEVC 10-bit with an optional H.264 fallback, cut into 6-second CMAF segments that seek instantly.
夜空 · the Aniclipse stream origin
Your streams, straight from the night sky.
Yozora is the private video origin behind Aniclipse. Originals stay byte-for-byte safe, a separate worker turns them into adaptive HLS, and every viewer gets a signed session you can revoke in a click.
- 1080p HEVC 10-bit

Features
Everything a stream origin should do, nothing it shouldn't.
Built for one job: getting your own encodes to Aniclipse viewers quickly, safely and with a clear audit trail.
Signed, revocable sessions
Each viewer gets their own short-lived session. Idle ones expire, a bad one is cut off in a click, and tokens never reach the logs.
Originals, untouched
Files are stored byte-for-byte and verified with SHA-256, so what you uploaded is exactly what is kept.
Subtitles & previews
English subtitles from the file itself or AI transcription, plus a poster frame and seek-preview thumbnails.
A worker that stays out of the way
Encoding runs on its own machine at low priority and reports progress live. If it stalls, the job is handed on.
Made for Aniclipse
Titles are keyed by AniList id and checked against the Aniclipse CDN. A small API tells the site what is hosted and opens playback sessions.
How it works
From file to first frame in three steps.
No manual packaging, no copying playlists around.
Ingest
Upload in the console, or rsync into the inbox. Files named like 154587/01.sub.mkv ingest themselves once the copy finishes.
Encode
The worker probes the file, encodes it, makes thumbnails and subtitles, then uploads a checksummed package that is published all at once.
Play
The site asks for a session and the player streams from this host with Range requests, and with cross-origin access locked to Aniclipse.

Yozora has no public sign-up or upload. It is the engine room behind Aniclipse; operators sign in to manage it.
