We just added an integration between SVPlayer and SVP 4 applications. ![]()
SVPlayer (on all platforms - Android, Android TV, iOS, tvOS) can now browse and play videos shared via SVPcast in SVP 4 for Windows/macOS.![]()
This means that your powerful PC will do frame interpolation with whatever method it can, including RIFE neural network.![]()
![]()
More info: www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVPlayer_with_SVPcast
Latest addition to our portfolio: SVPlayer TV for both Apple TVs and Android TVs, with UI optimized for big screens and remote controls interaction.![]()
![]()
You'll need latest Apple TV 4K (2022) or a high-end Android box (Rockchip 3588-based) to run this, and still 4K frame interpolation is beyond their possibilities, but at least we're now ready for the next-gen TV boxes (hey, NVIDIA, where's the next Shield? :D)![]()
![]()
Apple TV: install from App Store.![]()
Android TV: download APK from our web site - www.svp-team.com/get/
For those interested in VR playback, there's a new best-for-VR video player called HereSphere VR. Since the last month it supports SVP via Vapoursynth Filter. Highly recommended for every PC VR headset owner 😉![]()

www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:HereSphere_VR
SVPlayer for iPhones / iPads is here! ![]()
Works surprisingly well on everything better-or-equal than iPhone 11 (Apple A13 SoC). Minimal requirements is A10 SoC.![]()
![]()
Feel free to install and write a good review 😀 More good reviews - more features coming. Direct link: t.ly/j-UG![]()

There're a few free promo code (Apple only allows 100 codes) for the old SVP users (i.e. at least 1-month-old) - www.svp-team.com/ios-promo/
RIFE neural network optimized for NVIDIA RTX cards using TensorRT technology is a game-changer, cause now it's possible to run it on a middle-range cards. For example, RTX 3070 can handle 1080p videos up to x5 rate (120 fps) in a real time. And RTX 4070 Ti can do 4K. Even RTX 2060 is now good enough for 1080p @48 or even 60 fps.![]()
![]()
With the latest SVP update, TensorRT acceleration is as easy to use as any other SVP-provided interpolation method, in any video player or for a transcoding to high frame rate.![]()
