macOS · Video player

Play any video.
AirPlay it to your TV.

Ripley plays the formats your Mac usually won’t — MKV, WebM, AVI, WMV — and streams them straight to your Apple TV, subtitles and all. In a player that looks as good as it plays.

Ripley on macOS — a glass window streaming a video with an audio waveform, an AirPlay target, and a queue of videos on a colourful desktop

One player. Every format. Any screen.

Plays any format

MKV, WebM, AVI, WMV, MP4 — one window for every codec. AVFoundation handles the standard stuff; a bundled VLC engine quietly takes the rest.

AirPlay to your TV

Send anything to an Apple TV in up to 4K. Even formats Apple TV can’t open natively are transcoded on the fly — with the subtitle burned right in.

Subtitles, sorted

Embedded tracks, sidecar files (SRT, VTT, ASS, SUB), or a one-tap OpenSubtitles search. Tune the font, size, and colour to taste.

A queue that remembers

Drag in a folder, reorder, shuffle, and autoplay. Ripley remembers where you stopped and picks each film up exactly where you left it.

AirPlay

Your Mac picks it. Your TV plays it.

Pick a device from a glass route picker built right into the window. Ripley discovers every Apple TV and AirPlay speaker on your network, streams in 4K, and burns the active subtitle into the stream so it shows up on the big screen too.

  • Up to 4K, toggled per session
  • Subtitles burned into the AirPlay stream
  • Even MKV & AVI, transcoded on the fly

Subtitles & design

Looks as good as it plays.

Ripley is a single floating glass window over a living desktop — no clutter, just the film. Subtitles come from the file, a sidecar, or a one-tap OpenSubtitles search, and you style them your way: size, font, colour, and background.

  • Embedded, sidecar & OpenSubtitles sources
  • Per-track size, font & colour
  • A light or dark glass mode, your call

  • Native macOS app
  • Apple Silicon only
  • macOS 14+
  • No ads, no subscriptions

Coming soon to macOS.
