Vela Xtream vs Ceau Player

Vela is a fast, private player for your own Xtream IPTV subscription. Bring the credentials your provider gave you and Vela turns them into a library you can actually navigate: instant search across whatever your own subscription carries, categories you can filter and favourite, and playback that handles the formats other players choke on. • Search that finds it as you type — partial words, actors, genres • Categories you can search and star, not just scroll • Plays what iOS normally cannot: Matroska, AVI, HEVC, AC3 and DTS audio • Subtitle and audio track selection • Picture in Picture, AirPlay and background audio • Continue watching, favourites, and next-episode playback • Credentials kept in the iOS Keychain, on your device Vela includes no content, no channels and no provider. You need an existing subscription with an Xtream-compatible provider. Vela Pro unlocks search. A 14-day free trial starts when you sign in; after that, Pro is USD 4.99 per year. Vela Pro is an auto-renewing annual subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings after purchase.

Ceau Player contains no advertising or cross-app tracking. Remote notifications use Firebase.

Media URLs, playlist contents, credentials and viewing history are not included in analytics. See our privacy policy for details. Optional iCloud sync is limited to credential-free source descriptions and app preferences. PLAYBACK FOR REAL-WORLD MEDIA Powered by VLC for broad support across common live-stream and video formats. Ceau Player does not provide, host, curate, or sell media content. You must only connect sources and media you own or are authorized to use. Apple Watch: browse your IPTV sources, groups, favorites and recents on your wrist. Supported HTTP(S) HLS and video streams use the system player; other supported HTTP(S) streams offer audio playback. The Watch app can run independently of iPhone.
