Cinematic color for every video. Reference-grade grading, real-time upscaling, HDR playback, and video scopes — free to play, and Kuro PRO unlocks the pro color tools. Kuro is a native macOS video player built for accurate color. It plays a wide range of formats through libmpv and adds a full real-time color-grading and monitoring pipeline powered by Metal — matched to a professional Rec.709 / Gamma 2.4 reference, control by control. ■ Professional Color Grading (Kuro PRO) A complete primary toolset matched to a Rec.709 / Gamma 2.4 reference. • Lift / Gamma / Gain wheels, Offset, Contrast, 3-Way color wheels • Temperature / Tint, Hue / Saturation, tone curves (Y / R / G / B) • Load 3D LUTs (.cube), and export your current grade as a LUT ■ One-Click Auto Adjust (free) Analyzes the current frame and sets white balance and levels automatically. Everything stays editable for manual fine-tuning. ■ Real-Time Upscaling Bring low-resolution video to crisp detail with MetalFX, Anime4K, or Apple's AI super resolution. ■ HDR Playback HDR sources are tone-mapped beautifully to your display's real brightness headroom. ■ Video Monitoring Waveform / vectorscope / RGB parade / histogram, plus a spot probe to read exact pixel values. ■ Complete Playback Nearly every video format, hardware decoding, frame step forward / back, resume-position memory, playlist, subtitles, playback speed, and multiple fit modes. ■ Supported Formats (highlights) Video: MP4 / M4V / MOV / MKV / WebM / AVI / DivX / FLV / WMV / ASF / OGV / RM / RMVB Broadcast / DVD / camcorder: TS / M2TS / MTS / MPG / MPEG / M2V / VOB / MXF / GXF / DV / 3GP Raw video streams: H.264 / H.265 (HEVC) / AV1 / VP8 / VP9 / VC-1 Streaming: M3U8 (HLS) and direct http(s) URLs Stills: PNG / JPEG / GIF / BMP / TIFF / WebP / HEIC Plus any format macOS recognizes as video. ■ Audio Audio track switching, A/V sync offset, and a night mode. ■ Privacy First No data collection and no tracking.
