Swiftfin: 4K HEVC Playback not working on iPhone Xr, iPad 7
I am currently testing the app with my devices. I have an iPad 7th Gen and an iPhone Xr, both running the atm newest ios/ipadOS release (14.6).
On both devices, AV1 playback does not seem to work. When trying to play back the “Summer Nature” 4k file from (https://www.elecard.com/videos), playback does not start. On the server side I see that the app is requesting direct play, which I would assume is correct since the VLC backend should support AV1. Same thing happens with the 1080p version of that file.
I also cannot play 4k HEVC files. Media info of one affected file:

This movie can be direct played by the iphone using the web-app with the native player option enabled.
Anyways, thanks for the amazing work so far!

Tested with the iPad now, the player rotates 180 degrees when starting playback (so its upside down), but it does play the previously broken h264 file.
