It scans my network share just fine (unlike the Nvidia Shield Version) but it does something that no program should ever do. This is still surprising, because all these media apps (Nastify, VLC, MrMC, Video Explorer) are using some form of ffmpeg and doing SW decode. Its the only one, which plays every video file in my collection.Įxcept for.iso files of course, but I have hardly any.iso images in my collection.ĭont you need to have something running on your PC to use it inFuse has no issues with that. I played around with VLC, but dont see the added value besides Nastify and Video Explorer, which look very similar and are also VLC based.Īs I mentioned in terms of UI, feature set, Im a big fan of MrMC. TrueHD and DTS MA are decoded by MrMC to PCM 5.1 () and pushed as PCM to my receiver.ĭTS and AC3 passthru on Infuse works as well My receiver is an Onkyo TX-NR636 doublepost1452678106doublepost. It doesnt transcode - the MKV files played video only, no audio. It saw my MacBooks Plex library, twice actually - once as DLNA as I have that turned on, and something else (UMB I think). I just did a test rip of Cape Fear (1991) to H.264.

I am not getting any audio for my mpeg 2 files which play fine in MrMC, NAStify and Infuse Pro.

They should allow for a list view - No problems playing 1080p MKVs with reasonably high bitrate (x264). The charter of VLC doesnt allow use of any code that isnt freeopen source. I understand why that is the case, but it would be nice if they could offer a paid version with a Dolby license.Īlso, Apple TV covers the Dolby license on the ATV4 (IOS, no), so hopefully its a misunderstanding on the part of the VLC team and will be corrected ASAP.
