Apps MrMC v3.2.0 on tvOS/iOS released

[Scott Davilla]

MrMC version 3.2.0 brings a big change in AppleTV and iOS platforms. Along with the addition of support for the new AppleTV 4K with 4K display, we bring in HEVC hardware decoding. Finally, the Apple embedded devices are on par with our supported Android devices. Not only that but MrMC supports rendering in glorious HDR colors on the AppleTV 4K (when connect to an HDR capable display). This make MrMC the first video media player not using the native avplayer on tvOS/iOS that can decode and display HEVC/HDR content.

In addition, several Opacity skin bugs and issues have been resolved. Opacity is looking quite nice and was definitely worth the effort.

For more detailed list of fixes/features, see https://mrmc.tv/2017/10/19/mrmc-3-2-0-and-mrmc-lite-3-2-0-hevc-h-265-hw-acceleration-on-ios-11/

For those that want to try MrMC, we also have MrMC Lite which is free.

For those that are wondering, hevc/hdr is also supported in MrMC Lite.

As always, our forums are open for issues and questions.

Ohhhhhhh, tvOS 11.2 beta with automatically switch video display modes to match the native frame rate and dynamic range of video content.

Let the race begin

This feature will only support the AppleTV 4K right?

Yes.

MrMC v3.3.0 with dynamic range and display rate switching (tvOS 11.2/AppleTV4k) is brewing. Let's see how long it takes Apple reviews to get through the Thanksgiving Holiday backlog.
