Is this the one from u/theothernt? I've been using his github aerial dream fork for a while now. If so, I'm glad this is on the store. It makes updating so much easier.

I can't seem to get 4k hdr to work. Any tips?

Awesome! Best screensaver app just got way easier to use

it works flawlesly... I know that it might go against what this is for,
but somehow, if you could get some widgets/dashboard working in here, it
could be the best screensaver ever.

Had used the GitHub version a while back. Happy to see it will get a lot more attention now and easier for me to recommend to people.

I have an idea to develop a simple Android TV screensaver. Where would I start? I have no experience with Android Development.

A quick Google Search is not providing me with any tutorials for the app I want to develop.

Is this better than aerial dream in some way?

Looks sumptuous but I'm getting video stuttering :(

Did the recent update mess up local videos for anyone else? If I try to check off Use Local Videos in the options, it unchecks itself right away. App isn't able to access my vids and all I get is a black screen.

Wondering if it's just me.

Yes! I have been waiting for months! It’s excellent.

My Pixel 3xl is not supported sadly

It probably should have been obvious to me but if you turn on the Apple 4k streaming option and your Shield is set to never sleep like mine you'll burn through a terabyte of data in a week or two.
I couldn't figure out why we were eating so much data after Xfinity started sending me the 1.2tb data cap warning emails since we typically top out around 250gb. Finally traced it back to the Shield network utilization and had the realization that the app doesn't cache any of the videos (or there are enough that it never repeats). So I definitely suggest pre-downloading the videos and putting them on your own network.

Not showing as compatible with my Sony TV. Deliberate or unintended?

Thanks for making one of the best, if not best screensavers made available.

I have it set up on a 4k HDR projector playing through a nvidia shield pro and it looks incredible. Of all the things I play, this gets the most comments and we often just sit there watching the aerials and picking out things like people walking, etc. it’s so cool.

I do have one question/ask: is there any way to get a non-Dolby Vision stream? most projectors are HDR10 and don’t support Dolby‘s HDR implementation. It ends up being tinted with purples and green. I just wonder if a third non DV stream is available. This also happens on other videos that are Dolby Vision. Thanks!
