Features Five portals, one controller
Everything you watch, hear and play.
Vesper has five sides: films, live TV, smooth motion, hi-fi music and games. Scroll to fly through each one, or jump along the timeline at the bottom of the screen.
Cinema Your own library
Your films, treated like films.
Vesper plays the files you already own, from a local drive or a network share. Vesper is built around reference-grade scaling and HDR tone mapping. It switches the display to each film's native frame rate and passes lossless audio to your receiver as a bitstream.

Live Bring your own sources
Live TV, on your terms.
Point Vesper at your playlist, your program guide or a network tuner. It builds a channel grid you can surf with the D-pad. Nothing comes preloaded, so what is on the grid is what you put there.

Motion Frame interpolation
Smooth motion when you want it.
Most web video arrives at 24 or 30 frames per second. Vesper can generate the frames in between on your GPU, in real time, so motion holds together on a fast display. It is one button, and it stays off until you press it. It works on video Vesper decodes itself, so protected streams are out of reach.

Sound Hi-fi included
