What Other Users Are Saying About Elmedia

I am extremely impressed by this app. I had previously tried using the FFᴘʟᴀʏ utility to play back VVC video, but it had such high CPU utilization that I couldn’t watch 4K content. Elmedia Video Player, on the other hand, is so efficient that it only uses about 3/8ths of my M3 MacBook Air’s CPU to play back 4K HDR VVC — the most computationally intensive video format available!
