@_pajarito was able to compile Stremio for Apple Silicon, and I think we can do the same. One thing to note here is that it will save a lot of battery life, but we should also make sure that hardware video decoding is enabled. That will be the biggest battery life saver.

It's laggy and also consumes too much battery. HDR content plays but the HDR effect is not present. I'm not complaining though, it's open source and free, this is just a humble request to the project developers.

What do you mean by laggy? I had M1 macbook pro for almost 3 years now and there is nothing 'laggy' it plays 4k content without issues. Be sure to enable hw accelerated decoding in the settings.

I have the M1 Pro and it does lag sometimes. Hardware acceleration is on but it's not really supported on macOS including HDR. That toggle doesn't change anything, try for yourself. And this application is a battery hog, no doubt.

I can drop a recording some other time, but pressing every button has significant delay and animations are choppy

Seems like the main issue preventing a build for arm64 is libmpv, which wouldn't be an issue if Stremio wasn't using 6 year old binaries of it. As said in #326, switching to meson would make it significantly easier to manage cross-platform builds.
