1.4
- Every Aerial video: From the very first Aerials in San Francisco to the new space videos shot from the ISS!
- 4K HEVC: With the launch of Apple TV 4K, many videos are now available in this format. Aerial will show you the best format available based on your preferences.
- Different videos based on time: Want to see night videos at night? You can either specify your sunset or sunrise time manually, or, if your Mac is compatible with Night Shift (see here for a list of compatible Mac), get those automatically (you do not need to enable Night Shift).
- Feeling Dark?: Aerial is now compatible with Dark Mode in macOS 10.14 Mojave, and can play night videos when Dark Mode is enabled.
- Descriptions: Wondering where an Aerial view was shot? Aerial can now tell you as they play.
- Full offline mode:: Behind a firewall? Just copy the cache folder from another Mac and you are all set. You can also disable all streaming.
- Better cache management: You can now cache your favorite videos individually, no need to grab them all. Or just stream them as you go, they'll get cached automatically too.
And many bug fixes!

1.4 Beta 9
This version adds support for the new tvOS 12 videos. Please notice that some of the videos from the previous versions will not be available in this version, as Apple no longer uses them on tvOS 12.
- Fix "Done" button not closing on Mojave
- Adds optional video description
- Support for 1080p H.264/1080p HEVC/4K HEVC
And other fixes
1.2 (old release, don't download this) trying to fix stats bug
- Adds caching everything on demand through Preferences
- Removes duplicate videos.
NOTE: The manifest loaded from Apple includes some video files twice, although with different names. Aerial now goes through and does a HEAD request to all videos to get their content lengths and culls the list with that added information. Takes a second longer to start the screensaver, so I'll be looking into caching this in the future.
