Located my movies folder and then waited for metadata to load. After successfully loading the metadata went back into my movies list however the movie disappeared.
Also I know this is just a beta but I'm hoping for a watched/unwatched list and maybe a liabrary to search by genre. Also Siri integration?
when i click on a file on my windows share (avi, mov, etc.), the movie does not begin to play!
Hello guys.
It sounds like you are the favorite selection screen, which is a bit confusing right now if you're using a language other than English.
This screen is actually only designed for selecting favorites. Favorites are what are shown in the main menu, and how you would actually access the video files.
To select a favorite, highlight a particular folder and hold the touch pad button until the popup appears.

All are planned for a future version.

Do you by chance have more that one video in these folders, like a trailer perhaps? Any other files?
I believe sort by date only applies to actual files, at least for now.
This will depend a bit of your Wi-Fi signal strength. How many folders are we talking about, and how long is the loading time?

I can help for French translation if you want, and for issues that I've noticed, I have no idea how to connect my Trakt.tv account, but I'll try in English, it will maybe make more sense...
I also have some error loading files with the "Dolby on HDMI" option enabled, an error message appears and after it plays the file but with a constant buzzing sound. When the option is disabled, files are working fine.
And also I don't know if it's a bug or a feature (as it's also like that on iPhone/iPad app), but after loading metadata for some tv shows, these folders are at the end of the list, separated from the folders that are not treated yet. Is there any way to add an option to force the alphabetical order even for folders with no metadata?
But it's working really great for a first beta, well done!
So far, I am satisfied. Adding a few favorites worked well. Metadata was added fast. Playing a movie starts really quick.
What I miss is:
- background picture on tv-show
- option to choose subtitle size in pts instead of small/middle/big
- smaller favorite buttons on home screen, sommore will fit without scrolling.
But overall: very great job, worth the wait
A few comments...
That's it for now, I will start checking playback and any other issues...
Same thing here.
No, i checked this.
All folders only contain a single file. And some folders contain subtitles too.
Ok, that explains it then.
Above 1000 folders in a single source. The source is on a gigabit ethernet connection, and the ATV4 is using WIFI 5Ghz band with an above 300 mbit download and upload speed ( I checked ) as the 100Mbit ethernet on the device seems is slower.
The Loadtime is about 25 seconds long....
Search by folder name would be great. Right now all of the movies that are not being recognized is because it is searching embedded data on the file? Names don't appear as the file name, I have to edit and fix the metadata.
thanks James, is now working!!
So far so good!
Would like:
List View. This would make scrolling through large numbers of files much quicker. This is already an option in iOS version.
Don't sort folders then files. Have them continuous, so everything is in strict alphabetical order.
Other than that, I love it!
TV Shows with more than one season are shown as simple folders.
Those folders are taken into account when sorting by date, they're always at the top.
Installed and working here. A technical question if I may... When I play non-H.264 video, does Infuse have to transcode to H.264 first, or can it send decoded video direct to the HDMI?
In other words if I play an MPEG-2 or AVI for example, is it:
a/ MyVideo.avi -> Infuse -> H.264 -> HDMI, or
b/ MyVideo.avi -> Infuse -> HDMI
Curious to know if Apple lets you send raw video out or only H.264.
Not on the beta but I've heard that the app does not respond to the 10 second forward/remind feature when you touch the glass trackpad to the left and right. Well this feature be added before the release. This seems like an essential feature.
Many features should make more sense when using English. Naturally, we'll have everything translated for an official release.
With Dolby/DTS over HDMI enabled, Infuse will send the unchanged Dolby/DTS audio to your TV receive. If you're hearing buzzing, then it's likely the device connected to your Apple TV doesn't support this audio format, and disabling the setting is recommended.
Right now Infuse will display folders first, then movies, then tv shows, then everything else.
Thanks!

Infuse does support showing metadata for a series, with seasons inside, but you would need to organize your shows in a format with each season in it's own folder (Series/Season x/files).
E.G.
Lost/Season 1/Lost.S01.E07.mkv

Thanks. #1 and 3 are already in the works. We'll look into #2.

I'm not getting any DTS-HD MA/Dolby TrueHD Passthrough. It only plays DTS core and standard dolby digital. I have DTS/Dolby Over HDMI set to on.
Tried on files served over Plex DLNA and direct through SMB.
You can add/select subtitles through the playback settings menu. Swipe down while a video is playing to access this.
Good suggestion.
Great!
It's something we're planning to look into after the initial release.
Thanks for the feedback.
A dark mode, like on iOS, is in the works for 4.1 or 4.2.
In the works for a future update.
We'll look into it.
Thanks!

We're planing to add the filename to the edit metadata page.

Are you using one of the supported folder structures?

Everything needs to be decoded, no matter the format.
Some formats (like h.264) are eligible for HW decoding, which is inherently better than the fallback of SW based decoding. This has a more noticeable difference on mobile devices, as HW decoding will greatly extend battery life.

Working pretty good so far but I have som minor stuttering (inconsistent framerate) when playing bigger files around 20-30GB.
Other that that I would like:
- Have one folder for movies and one for series containing and gathering files from multiple sources (folders).
- More subtitle size options.
- The ability to pick different artwork covers.
Keep up the good work!
Will there be support for deleting files? or at least a visual clue for watched/unwatched movies?
Great first beta by the way...
