Version 3 takes a new approach of using Media Extensions that add support to AVFoundation for non-native file formats and video codecs instead of using QuickLook extensions.

(Long-time Mac users may remember Perian which performed a similar function with the QuickTime framework before QuickTime was replaced by AVFoundation).

  • Support for NotchLC in .mov (thanks to @dev-joss)
  • Faster video decode, particularly VP9
  • Improved thumbnails - tries harder to avoid all black or all white thumbnails
  • Improved handling of VBR audio including Vorbis and Windows Media Audio
  • Faster playback after a seek
  • Fix for missing cover art
  • Fix for DivX in .avi
  • Fixes for Windows Media files
  • Fix for MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video

Requires macOS 26 "Tahoe" or later.
