![]() ![]() We’ve worked pretty hard and we would love to hear your feedback and suggestions (and bug reports!). The app will automatically find subtitles in many languages for whatever you are playing (we’re very proud of our matching algorithm, from our tests it works better than current subtitles tools out there).īest part for the end, all of the above works on Chromecast and Airplay, just one-click away! ![]() The app embeds its own custom VPN that is used to protect your privacy when playing non-local files. The app can play local, web and Bittorrent video files in all formats instantly. We’re a bunch of internet geeks that were getting tired of how hard (and how many different apps it takes) to do one very simple thing, playing videos in a modern way. I'll post newer observations later:Īn Android app that could synchronize with the computer content and be used as a remote would be awesome (Google Home works but is limited to play/pause of course).Ī library feature (that could scan folders and classify files as Series > Episodes) would work terrific with the combination of the above, but I understand also that it makes the whole thing heavier, so I don't know if it's a really good idea.We are releasing the first beta version of our app: Soda Player (for Mac and Windows). Quick remarks from a brief usage, it's more about long term suggestions, I'm pretty sure you guys already have your ideas about that. Where do you plan to get your revenue from ? It's definitely more fluid with H.265 videos (Videostream struggles a lot), also looks less heavy for the processor, plus the automatic subtitle handling works great and free. I use Videostream but I'm probably going to change for your player. We’re super open to feedback and suggestions, either here or via the website livechat.įor those who do not have the free beta, you can download it at (Mac/Windows only for now). ![]() We want to make sure It Always Works™ but we also want to offer the best experience to people with more capable devices and higher quality needs, that’s why we’re asking for your help to:įind out about bugs (if you have a file that can’t be played somehow, please tell us).įind out about the actual capabilities of high-end devices (ex: HEVC profile/level that can be played by the Chromecast Ultra, the NVIDIA SHIELD, the MIBOX).įind out about how you use your Chromecast/TV/Sound setup so we can make the app fit your needs. If audio requires transcoding, choose the best codec (for example, on the Google Chromecast, DTS 5.1 will be transcoded to Dolby Digital/AC3 5.1 if supported). When transcoding video, use hardware encoding when available (Mac only, Windows coming very soon)ĪAC, MP3, FLAC, Dolby Digital (AC3) and Dolby Digital Plus (EAC3) Pass-through.ĭTS pass-through will come very soon (some devices like the NVIDIA SHIELD seem to support it). HEVC (H.265) pass-through (we’ve only activated it for Chromecast Ultra and NVIDIA SHIELD for now, see more info below on how to help us fine-tune it). The app takes the specific device capabilities to make the decision (that includes codec profile/level, resolution, framerate, channels, etc.). This means that the app will remux and avoid transcoding whenever it can, for both video and audio tracks, for local and bittorrent video files. The latest update (BETA 2.0) brings smart video and audio pass-through/remuxing for Chromecast (and AirPlay). Hey! We’ve been working very hard for the past few days improving the TV experience. ![]()
