Sports

• A Sports tab lists the day's games, each with the channel carrying it. Fixtures come from API-Sports (one product per sport: football, basketball, baseball, ice hockey, American football, handball, volleyball, rugby and AFL) and from SportAPI.ai, which leads for football; keys are build-time credentials like TMDB's and Trakt's, and a per-provider daily request budget keeps a free tier alive across a day of opening the tab. Every fixture is matched out of the user's own EPG - a programme naming both teams is the evidence, with tiers for team-named channels (US regional sports networks) and competition-named listings ("NHL", "Top 14"), aliases and three-character prefixes for the way guides write sides ("Man Utd" for Manchester United), and the listing's description as a second chance - and OK watches the matched channel, with a picker when more than one carries the game. With no feed configured the tab still fills itself in from the guide's own live sport, and a media-server or plugin-only setup has no channels to match against, so the tab stays hidden there (the Settings pane says why). Settings > Sports: show/hide the tab, pick which sports to list, and add the curated M3U guide (epg6) as an EPG source in one tap.
• The board reads as a scoreboard, not a list of sentences. Kick-off and state sit in a fixed left column, the sides stack with their scores in matching boxes, the competition sits beneath them, and the channel carrying the game is a chip with its logo and number on the right; the board leads with what is in play, then what is still to come, then results, and a header band gives the day, the game count and how many are live. A mode row switches between Live now (the games in play plus the guide's own "On now" listings, shown with the listing's blurb) and Upcoming, sport chips filter the board with a count each, and live games sit two to a line as half-width cards. Tennis, Darts, Cricket, Snooker and Boxing join Formula 1 and Golf as guide-only sports, and the live classifier reads every supported language, accent-folding and squashed or spaced phrase matching included.
• Guide text, end to end, behind the tab. epg_programs gains the listing's description (DB v5, migrated in place) filled by both XMLTV <desc> and Xtream, a channel's timeline comes from the panel's whole stored table rather than the short EPG (four entries against 140-380 on the panel this was measured against), XMLTV feeds may arrive gzip-compressed, a sync filters programmes to the device's own tvg-ids, and a portal without them is met by the channel's name. Starting a game hands over every channel the guide matched to it, so the player's live version picker offers the other broadcasts beside the channel's own quality variants.

Network shares

• SMB and WebDAV join the provider types, with browse and play on the TV. SMB goes over smbj (SMB2/3) and WebDAV over PROPFIND with Basic auth; entries stay out of the catalogue and open a browser overlay in the settings slot, with Back walking up one folder. An smb:// URL is served by a Media3 data source that reads the share directly (seeking included) and WebDAV plays as an ordinary HTTP URL carrying its Authorization header, so resume, subtitles-in-container and the external-player hand-off all work. The phone-pairing QR form learns both types, and the TV verifies a QR-added share immediately and reports what it found.

Player

• Versions lists everything a search found - torrents and debrid included. The resolver publishes what it found and keeps collecting after playback starts, so Versions offers one entry per site (its mirrors are interchangeable), a Torrent entry opening the full release list (quality, seeders, indexer) and the debrid service a torrent will be fetched through when an account is configured; picking one re-opens that source alone, and the auto-pick (web first, torrents when nothing web resolves) is unchanged.
• One Find & Play button on a title with no source. The toolbar's Find button hides while the primary Play relabels itself and returns when Play means play again.

Providers and plugins

• Dead Reddit-scanner providers are dropped on launch. Entries proposed by the scanner are re-probed the way the app would use them (the Xtream login call, the Stalker handshake, or an HTTP status for a playlist, under a 20s per-request cap) once per app open, and the ones that no longer answer are removed in one write, named in a toast and the session log; an offline launch removes nothing. A candidate added mid-session is re-checked there and then and, if it does not answer, added switched off rather than deleted - and a panel that starts failing during playback is probed after the third failed play and reported as stopped responding, once per session.
• Cloudflare challenges stay off the player. A site resolve still in flight when playback starts can no longer promote its challenge WebView over the stream: the bypass asks one gate before showing any UI, and a challenge raised moments before playback begins is dismissed, failing its caller so the queue moves on.

Translations

• Every locale gains the missing screenfuls. The sports section plus debrid, diagnostics, network shares, Simkl, skip segments and subtitles - around 190 keys per language, each with its own plural categories, brand names left untranslated, and every format specifier audited against the English source.

Fixes

• The guide's times sit on the clock's half-hours again. The ruler was labelled from the current minute - "Now", 12:17, 12:47 for a guide opened at 11:47 - so its times never matched the usual :00/:30 marks or the programme blocks beneath them; it is now anchored to the half-hour, with a "Now" lead cell running to the next mark and the blocks lining up under it.
• The Live TV rail lists categories in the provider's own order. The sidebar used to float sport/UK names to the top and alphabetise the rest, scrambling the order the panel itself lists them in.
• Cards scrolled off the top of the Sports board hide behind the mode pills and sport chips instead of painting over them.
