Frequently asked
- Which formats does it play? Playback runs on libVLC, so the answer is broadly "the ones a system player refuses" — MKV, unusual audio codecs, subtitle formats AVFoundation does not read. If a file will not play, say so in the community with the container and codecs; that is usually enough to tell a missing feature from a broken file.
- Which network shares are supported? SMB, NFS, SFTP, FTP and WebDAV. Vunio browses them itself — you do not mount the share in Finder first, and on iPhone there is nothing to mount at all.
- How does subtitle search find the right file? It sends a content hash of the video alongside the title. A hash match means the subtitle was made for exactly those bytes, which survives renaming, and it outranks every other signal except language. Your language preferences are an ordered list, not a single choice.
- Why does Assrt need my own token? Assrt's rate limit is counted per token, so a token shipped inside the app would put every user in one bucket and throttle all of them at once. Enter yours in Settings → Assrt; OpenSubtitles works without one.
- Do my Mac and iPhone libraries sync? Not yet. Libraries, resume points and settings are per device.
- Is it on the App Store? Not yet — it is in TestFlight, and it is a beta in the honest sense of the word.
