Hello!
I'm looking for a video player similar to Infuse for iOS and macOS. I have lots of my favorite TV shows uploaded to my OneDrive and for the past few years I've been streaming them on my MacBook with Infuse. Infuse allows you to connect your OneDrive account directly to the app and can stream .mkv files on-demand without downloading them locally first.
I don't want the app to locally download an episode first. I would rather it just stream directly, downloading as it goes, I suppose. The main reasons for this are because I don't have a lot of disk space and want to conserve it as much as possible. I also LOVE bingeing shows, and don't want to wait 5-8 minutes in between each episode for a download (each episode ranges from 2-4gb).
The online video player does not open any of the episodes. It loads for a few seconds and displays an error message. The playback is completely fine before the upload, it is stored on an external hard disk. It is uploaded directly from that drive. If I download the file from the OneDrive website to my laptop, it opens and plays fine in QuickTime (macOS) and in Movies & TV (Windows). I know that the video files uploaded to OneDrive are uncorrupted because Infuse can stream them in 1080p with no problems. The encoded subtitles even stream properly.
Is there anything similar available for macOS or Windows? I can't stream my MacBook to my TV and there is no Google Cast option on the app. Screen Mirroring doesn't work, either. Infuse is not available for Windows, otherwise I'd use it there to be able to stream to my TV.
Thank you in advance!
