It’s been clearly stated that, if a monthly/yearly sub lapses, Infuse will stop working (or fall back to the free version?). The fact that there’s no discount for a lifetime sub, while those who choose a monthly or yearly sub get a free month/year, also rubs me the wrong way. ~$100 in my local currency about 1/2 the cost of an AppleTV HD. I could almost convince myself to treat a lifetime subscription as a one-off purchase, except for a few things like: That said, Infuse suits my use-case much better than the others I’ve tried so far (though Emby comes close). Because of that, I’ll be sticking to Infuse 6 Pro (standalone) until it stops working - unless the free version of 7, or one of the alternatives I’m currently investigating, pans out. Nothing against or Firecore I’ve just been burnt too many times before with so-called ‘lifetime’ subscriptions that aren’t, subscriptions that stop working when the company closes or loses interest, and ‘updates’ that remove ‘little-used’ functionality I use or have become reliant on. Put simply, I will not buy subscription software. Even more so when I discovered that the stand-alone version had been dropped. I’m not a regular visitor to either the Firecore website or these forums, so the release of v7 took me by surprise when I learned of it the other day. If those issues are due to a permanent change in Apple’s APIs, will v6 standalone also see an update to continue working when TVOS 15 is released?Īnd is there a list of differences between the free and subscription versions of v7 available? I seem to recall there was for 5 & 6, but I can’t find anything beyond the vague “Additional video formats”, “HD quality audio”, etc mentioned on the Features page. I also see that there’s playback issues with the TVOS 15 beta. If I install the ‘free’ version of Infuse 7, will it co-exist happily with the standalone v6? That is, will I end up with two separate & working versions to choose from, each using their own library etc & not interfering with each other - or will it replace, corrupt the library of, or otherwise render the existing installation of v6 inoperable?Īlso, glad to see there’s plans to update v6 for when TVDB drops their old API. I’m currently using Infuse 6 Pro (standalone) on an AppleTV HD (4th gen).
