Atrium: Media Player

About this app

Atrium plays your library — the one on your own server — with the look and the manners the television asks for. There is no Atrium account. You type your server's address, sign in with the user you already have, and that's it. What you see and hear is what you put there. WHAT YOU GET • Movies, shows, collections and music, each with a screen of its own. • Continue Watching and Up Next: pick a film back up, or jump to the episode you're due, straight from the first screen. • HDR10 and Dolby Vision video, with Match Frame Rate. Multichannel audio. • Audio and subtitle language selection, chapters with thumbnails, and an info panel while you watch. • When an episode ends, the next one. Automatically or on your say-so — your call. • Search across the whole server, sorting, genre and decade filters, and a letter bar that crosses a thousand titles in two moves. • Music: artists, albums, songs and playlists, with a queue, shuffle, repeat and background audio. • Featured content in the Apple TV's top row (Top Shelf). • In Catalan, Spanish and English. PRIVACY Atrium collects nothing. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking. Your server's address and your session live in your device's Keychain and go nowhere else. WHAT YOU NEED A media server of your own, compatible with Jellyfin (10.9 or newer) or with Emby. Atrium is an independent client; it is not affiliated with, nor does it represent, the Jellyfin or Emby projects. With Emby, HDR video is tone-mapped to SDR: its server doesn't describe the video range, and the Apple TV won't switch to HDR without it. Everything else works the same.

NEW • LIVE TV. If your server has channels, Home gets one more tile and the list behind it. Each row says what is on now and how long is left, with the channel's logo or its number. Beside it, the focused channel's detail with the programme's image and synopsis. • And a grid, to find a channel by its face: with four hundred channels and half the list without guide data, the logo is how people recognise them. The pill at the top switches views, and you always come back to the one you left. • Your channels first. Hold "Select" on a channel to make it a favourite and show only those. The filter is remembered. • List order or by name, with the alphabet on the right as in your libraries. • A channel's detail: what is on now and what comes next, with the time of each. • A player built for live, not for a film: no total duration, no scrubbing bar, no chapters, no resume; instead, which channel you put on, what is on now and how long is left of the programme. Press down for the synopsis. And here we need your help, because no two Live TV setups are alike. Ours is a list of internet channels; yours may come from a terrestrial, satellite or cable tuner, and then the signal is interlaced and often MPEG-2 with MP2 audio — three things no Apple TV can render or decode on its own. The app detects this and asks your server to convert it, and we have tested that with signals built here, but not with yours. Try your channels and write to info@vdata.net: whether they show, whether they sound, whether they run smoothly. If one will not start, tell us which and where it comes from. FIXED • There were whole servers where the app was useless. One library of a kind the app did not know about — audiobooks, games — and it loaded none of them, for every account on that server. For the same reason, a child account with parental controls blocking unrated games could not sign in at all. The app no longer holds your server to a fixed vocabulary. • "Who's watching?" now has a way out, and if an account fails to open it says so instead of returning you to the same screen in silence. An account is only forgotten when the server says it is no longer valid. • The screen saver no longer appears in the middle of a film. • The time bar no longer disappears after two or three jumps, and scrubbing forward no longer leaves the video hanging. • A flicker from the TV no longer sends the rest of the film through the server's converter. • Music no longer keeps playing under a video started from the featured area. • With "Playback Information" on, the remote works again.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
