Infuse is polished, I lack nothing in it on ATV.

The way they do their list rendering is infuriating for large collections. Instead of showing titles + shimmer, its just big blobs of loading placeholders. So to find where you are in your list of movies you have to stop scrolling and let the content finish loading to get your bearings.

Its minor overall, but as a former app dev, poor list performance drives me crazy.

Also, for files in a directory with the same prepended string with long filenames(like full_show_name - S01E01), it displays just a fraction of the full filename in a list.

I need to sit there and wait for the filename to scroll horizontally to see what the actual episode number or name is. Instead of just showing the full filename on multiple lines, or showing the filename below the thumbnail.

Also:

- Flattens folders with a single file in it (so foldername/file.mkv shows up as just file.mkv in the parent folder), no way to disable this (https://community.firecore.com/t/avoid-flattening-tv-show-fo...)

- Doesn't show landscape artwork (embedded .png), only portrait, and if the embedded artwork is not portrait it grabs a random frame from the file instead of cropping the embedded artwork (https://community.firecore.com/t/use-landscape-artwork/26878...)

- If you exit a video before it's ended, but it's close to the ending, it marks it as played (so if you go back in you lose the playback position) (https://community.firecore.com/t/infuse-skips-end/23504)

Yes, I have these links handy because I've been tracking these issues for years and they're still not fixed.

Eh, my media is ephemeral, I don’t rewatch things. I’m sure as a former dev you could whip up your own in a couple of weekends and a Show HN :)
