I read it here
What are those supported formats?
Right now, the new player can direct play the following formats:
- Supported containers: mkv, mov, mp4, mpegts, mpeg, mpegvideo, avi, flv, ogg
- Supported audio codecs: aac, aac_latm, ac3, alac, flac, dca, vorbis, opus, eac3, mp1, mp2, mp3
- Supported video codecs: h264, hevc, vp8, vp9, h263, mpeg1video, mpeg2video, mpeg4, vc1 (in iPhone 7 and newer, iPad Pro from 2017 and newer, and in Apple TV 4K)
- Supported subtitle codecs: ass, dvb_subtitle, vobsub, eia_608, pgs, microdvd, movtext, ssa, srt
Then I went back and re-read and further down it says live tv is not supported.
