Watch Party on tvOS (Beta) & Real-Time Sync
- Dedicated Sidebar Watch Party Tab & Lobby: Embedded Watch Party directly into the main sidebar with its own dedicated space (
TVTab.party) for effortlessly joining rooms via short codes or hosting rooms with instant QR code sharing. - Host Directly from Scene Menu & Details: Launch new Watch Parties instantly from the Siri Remote Scene / Insight panel while enjoying any stream, or right from the Details screen before starting playback.
- Real-Time Cross-Platform Chat (Incoming): Stay connected with party members on iOS, iPadOS, Android, and desktop with real-time chat message toasts during playback (read-only for now; Apple TV remote keyboard reply coming soon).
- Stream Together with Your Chooms: Watch the new Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2 with your chooms — synchronized playback across all devices keeps everyone frame-accurate with automatic drift correction, resilient reconnection, and host seek broadcasts.
- Guest Shared-Source Playback: Seamlessly connects guest playback to host-provided streams with explicit privacy consent and fallback protection.
Independent Multi-Service Scrobble (Trakt, Simkl & More Together)
- Simultaneous Multi-Service Sync: Completely overhauled scrobbling engine to sync watch progress and completions independently across Trakt, Simkl, WeTrakr, and MDBList without cross-service interference.
- Profile-Scoped Credentials: Scoped all scrobbling tokens, watch history snapshots, and MDBList authentication strictly to individual local profiles.
AetherEngine 7.46.0 & Playback Core Upgrades
- AetherEngine 7.46.0 & FFmpegBuild 3.9.0: Upgraded core AetherEngine playback pipeline with FFmpegBuild 3.9.0, adding native DTS:X height channels via patched
dcadecoder (x_heightsoption). - MPVKit with MoltenVK 1.4.2: Upgraded vendored MPVKit package with MoltenVK 1.4.2 for enhanced Vulkan-on-Metal rendering stability.
- Live Stream Startup & Recovery: Fixed live playback startup hangs and gracefully retained recognized live state until coherent finite timelines are established.
- Forced & Embedded Subtitle Fallback: Respected forced subtitle preferences while automatically falling back to user's preferred embedded audio and subtitle languages when external subtitles arrive late.
Scene Menu Frame Capture & UI Enhancements
- Active Playback Frame Capture: Added high-resolution video frame snapshotting directly inside the Scene panel.
- Preferred-Language Trailers: Intelligently resolves and streams trailers matching your primary interface language.
- Custom Poster URL Patterns: Expanded regex patterns and catalog matching for third-party metadata feeds.

Known issues
- Picture in Picture requires a supported Apple TV 4K / tvOS 15+ device.
- Physical Apple TV playback, HDMI/HDR/Dolby Vision, AirPlay receivers, Atmos hardware, and live-TV paths still need real-device validation; the Apple TV Simulator cannot play AV1.
