Cheers, I’ve filled in the form for beta access. Very keen to see how this goes.

Edit: I noticed that the post was specifically about high bit rate files. This stuttering issue happens for me even on low bitrate 480p content and doesn’t seem related to anything about the file. It’s also unlikely to be throttling given infuse has no issues with any content and my device sits on the TV stand with complete airflow. Hopefully just switching to the updated API is enough.

Looks like it’s high bitrate or using the newest ATV 4K:

high bitrate HDR content and/or using the latest 2022 (fanless) Apple TV.
