Apps NAStify Player, my app to play your videos stored in any server!

I noticed, no SMB/CIFS options here perhaps i am doing something wrong or it isn't in the app. Also doesn't appear to be picking up any uPnP enabled devices on my network

They should be on the Main Page under Servers. You should see your SMB/CIFS Shares with the IpAddress Next to them. Then below that a section for the uPnP (DLNA) Servers with IpAddress Next to them.
Are all you devices on the same SUBNET. Like 192.168.1.*
If you still can not see them I would contact the developer.

Hi Sylver - long silence in this thread. Any news to report on an upcoming update?

I have not see anything from him in a while. Also, no changes to the TestFight.

I really only use the Apple TV App. But just looked at the iPhone App. And the iOS Version does not appear to support Windows Shares (SMB/CIFS). However, my iPhone does see the uPnP SHARES. However, the uPnP (iOS an tvOS)doe not show the IpAddress like the SMB Shares on tvOS.
 
Hey there, sorry for the lack of news, but later today or tomorrow I'll post a new beta with :
- Some bug fixes
- A fix for HDHomeRun devices that were not working well previously
- Audio passthrough that is working (yeah finally)
- Preliminar NFS support (it works but there are some performances issues)
 
Could really use an upgrade to the UI. Looking at basic icons just doesn't cut it for me when others have movie covers and info pulled in from databases.

Yeah, i ended up buying the Apple TV app. It found the NAS / other computers on the network.
 
Sylver:
My primary use has switched to .mpg files. Currently having some problems in playing .mpg files in Nastify so I'm not even able to test the AC3/DTS pass through per your request in TestFlight.

When FF a mpg file, the scrub bar stays at 0.00 until pressing play, the file does then jump to new position, but then buffers, starts, buffers, etc.

My previous test WTV file plays perfectly.

We missed you, glad to have you back.
 
I can stream my TV channels from my Panasonic to my ATV via DNLA but can't with the IOS app, it's just empty.

Hope you've not changed anything with the code since early March that's going to make its way onto the ATV app.
 
Wanting to test this app on my Apple TV, but not really wanting to spend money on another media player app I'm not sure about.

Would one of you fine folk mind testing a file for me?

File 1 or 8 (same file, just different audio) from this link.

I have tested this same file across a few different apps.
- Infuse - stutters considerably as the camera pans out and into the sky (5-14s) - this is the case with or without subs
- MrMC - similar performance to Infuse, however has stylised karaoke subs playing as well.
- OneVideoLite (Custom S/W Decoder) - video freezes at the start of the camera pan, audio continues
- OneVideoLite (H/W Decoder) - I can't remember which (custom or system h/w decoder), but the video played smooth, just with messed up colours. The app updated today (28 March) and now both H/W decoders give a completely black screen, so I can't remember which was better.
- HD Player Plus - very minor stuttering, exceptionally better than Infuse

And out of interest I tried the same file on Infuse iOS (ipad air 2). Smooth as butter.

Thanks

Did you post this to Infuse support too? They might be able to explain why or fix the ATV app to make it play the file better.

Sent it through late last night. Hoping for an improvement with 4.1 (when out) :)
 
AVC High 10 profile is tough to do. Specially when tvOS does not permit tapping the hardware decoders like you can under iOS. Under iOS, you can use videotoolbox and friends. Under tvOS, videotoolbox is prohibited, so all video decode must be done using software decoders.

I suspect that nothing under tvOS can handle them right now. That might change in the future, depending on access to the hardware decoders. You 'could' get access to them if you self-build Kodi or MrMC, turn them on and side-load via Xcode. This bypasses the App Store review where such usage would be rejected as prohibited.

I'll grab the samples and see what might be done, but don't hold your breath :)
 
Update: 720p flavors of Hi10p h264 seem fine. With Hi10p 1080p flavors, they are fine until the picture fames get complicated with rapid motion. Have to wait for FFMpeg to get more asm/neon code for them or tvOS permits access to hw decoders.

This is with pending MrMC 2.x series.
