Great app, with opportunity

Loving this app and happy to see it is out of TestFlight! There seems to be an issue with audio playback when playing through a stereo pair of HomePods connected to a 4k Apple TV. The lipsync is off and after working through settings and noticing that this is the only app we are seeing this issue persist, I want to drop a note to make the developer aware. Thank you for your hard work and looking forward to the evolution of this app!!

Works OK. No DTS 7.1, Atmos or Dolby Vison. Video issues on new Apple TV 4K

This app needs some work. Will not play video unless experimental force direct play is turned on. If this is off, video resolution looks terrible, if it even plays. I have a brand new Apple TV 4K red generation running latest tvOS. This app does not play tru-hd 7.1, Atmos or Dolby vision. If the movie is in 7.1 you will hear no sound. Must change to 5.1 format. Also don’t have your Apple TV set to Dolby vision. If you do, this app will not work correctly and colors will be messed up. Make sure your Apple TV is set to 4K SDR. Would be nice to have ability to add folders without having to go into media and then my folder. Add this to the home screen

Tried the Infuse Player by another developer and it works with all the above without any issues. Only give this app two stars because it’s free. Hoping you can fix the issues mentioned above

Still slow to load/no refresh

The app has come a long way, I remember when you couldn’t even watch live TV and kept crashing

Would be good if it cached the list (no pictures. Or with an option to cache pictures too to make it faster), so it doesn’t need to constantly try and check the whole server (which takes a long time if the library is big)
When you finish an episode, it doesn’t prompt to watch the next one, and if you go to home, the next episode doesn’t appear.. so you got to manually refresh the app and wait for it to load (or go to the series and choose the next episode)

Also would be good if the app allowed which media folder to show/not show on home, and an independent live TV tab option instead of having to go to media->live TV (it would help specially on Apple TV as if you want to go to live tv, you have to go media->library and if you want to go back, you need to go to home and wait for the library to sync again)

If the app cached the server list and refreshed at home to show the next episode, I would finally stop using the old web based one
