THE EXPERIENCE
Less between you
and your videos.
Open a file, settle in and pick up where you left off. Percept Player brings the details together so you can focus on what’s playing.
Subtitles, your way.
Choose available subtitle tracks or add your own file. Adjust appearance and timing, with per-video preferences remembered on your Mac.

Your videos have
more to say.
From dialogue to the details around it, Percept Player is designed to work with your Mac’s audio capabilities and compatible listening devices.
Spatial Audio depends on the video’s audio format, your output device and your macOS settings. It isn’t available for every file or audio track.
Which Atmos formats are supported?
Compatible Dolby Digital Plus Atmos (E-AC-3 JOC) tracks can use native Atmos playback. Other formats use the player’s alternate playback path where needed. TrueHD Atmos is not converted to native Atmos; decoded surround playback does not preserve Atmos objects.

The details make the difference.
Switch audio and subtitle tracks, seek through a video and adjust volume with controls that stay close at hand.
Playback support depends on the codecs and tracks inside a file. HDR appearance depends on the source video, display and available brightness.
PERSONAL BY DESIGN
Your viewing stays yours.
Your viewing history, playback preferences and remembered file permissions stay on your Mac. The app has no accounts, advertising or developer analytics. Clear saved data whenever you choose.
