Files not read on Apple TV 4K - upgrade to pro version required

Platforms Apple TV

Hello,

I am using infuse 6.5.5 (3375) on my appletv 4k for a while. I use it to read mkv from a HDD plugged on my internet box. Everything was fine but for a couple of mkv, when i launch them, the app redirects me to a page for upgrading to infuse pro.

Before I decide to buy the pro version, I would like to understand why some files are read and some aren’t. Main difference I noticed between files is audio format. Files with AAC 7.1 are read, files with TrueHD 7.1 or DD 5.1 are not read.

thanks for your help
Mat

Welcome to the forum!

The way I understand it is the free version won’t play the files that require the Dolby codecs and others that Firecore has to pay royalties to use.

Thanks for your answer.

I just got the pro version and it works. You are right it seems to be related with the audio codec.

Best regards

Glad it worked for you!

I’m sure you’re going to enjoy the features in Infuse.

The lifetime subscription is about the best way to go too!
