Mac newbie here. Please recommend a bittorrent client and media player for M1 MacBook Air (macOS 11.3.1). ΜTorrent doesn’t support Big Sur and QuickTime Player doesn’t display.srt subtitles. Thank you so much! VLC, the extremely popular cross-platform media player software, just got a big update which brings native support to Apple's M1 Macs. The free open-source media player now features an updated 3.0.

Jan 19, 2021 VLC, the popular open-source media player, has received an update that brings native support for Apple Silicon M1 Macs. VLC was previously available for Intel-based Macs, and was running fine.
VLC is updated for Macs with M1, but its implementation is again as problematic as Chrome or Edge. VLC, the most popular media player for any platform, has finally been updated to be compatible with Macs with M1, and done, like many other applications, without changing anything aesthetically.
I've successfully ripped/played 4k bluray disks with Makemkv and vlc with my intel mac (2015 macbook pro).
I'm currently using M1 Mac mini, and Makemkv is working seemlessly with any 4k bluray disk that I have.
But the problem is playing them with VLC (apple silicon version).
I checked VLC in Integration tap in Makemkv preferences, opened the disk in VLC, and then got this message: 'This Blu-ray Disc needs a library for AACS decoding, and your system does not have it.'
I figured the 'libmmbd.dylib' file does not automatically go into the lib forder in VLC, so I manually copied and pasted it into VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/lib, all to no avail.
My guess is that VLC silicon version doesn't support playing 4k blurays, so I tried the older version of VLC (intel CPU version), and put libmmbd.dylib in it, and opened the disk.
The monitor turned into pink and my mac crashed and rebooted.
