Still needs true AirPlay, but a superb player! – Outplayer Review

Outplayer is, without question, a superb video playback solution. Are there things about the interface that I wish could be configured differently? Sure (I’d love to see support for custom thumbnails rather than auto-generated images, for example… and the ability to assign a “folder.jpg” image to a collection rather than seeing even smaller thumbnails of the contents would be quite nice!), but in terms of on-device playback and file management there really isn’t anything to criticize. My ONLY lingering disappointment with Outplayer is that it does not (yet!) support true AirPlay and ChromeCast output. Although “Screen Mirroring” will allow you to send video to an Apple TV, there is an unfortunate drawback, since modern iPhone screens are a 2.16:1 aspect ratio: when video is sent to a 16:9 screen, it will have top and bottom letterboxing, because that output mode does not automatically stretch video to fill the vertical space. Adding true AirPlay support would elevate Outplayer from merely superb, to essentially perfect.
