4K Content Playback #14

Open anthonylavado opened 4 years ago

anthonylavado commented 4 years ago

We should see if there's any way to enable direct play of HEVC/H265/x265 content. Currently it fails, even if transcoding is disabled.

According to this, Xbox should support playback of H.265 in UWP apps.

For Webview-based apps, it seems like EdgeHTML supports it partially as well: https://caniuse.com/#feat=hevc

Sorry if this is not the place to ask, but are there any plans to develop a native UWP app (not using webview)? I see there is a uwp-rewrite branch...

heyhippari commented 4 years ago

There are plans, but unfortunately the person writing it has been MIA.

We lack contributors able to write UWP apps, so we don't really have any updates, unfortunately.
