Live TV
- Switch Stream keeps a single connection, so switching a channel's stream no longer drops the channel or reverts to the previous stream.
- The app now follows your own Dispatcharr account's permissions instead of assuming an admin account. DVR, Movies and TV Shows appear when your account has access, and recording works for any account allowed to manage the DVR.
- When a stream is refused because your account or the provider is out of connections, the player says so and offers Retry instead of failing quietly.
- A channel that keeps ending now waits longer between attempts instead of fighting other devices for the slot.
- A slow channel gets more time to start before another stream is tried, and the app learns how long each channel usually takes.
- A stream that ends cleanly no longer leaves a connection open on the server.
Player
- Player Info Card: choose what appears on the info card in the player, from the channel logo and name to the program name, time, subtitle and description. Settings > App Behaviors.
- The info card now shows the program subtitle and description.
- Playback recovers from a video decoder failure by rebuilding the player, which fixes frozen video with continuing audio on some devices.
Guide
- Program art keeps its own shape, so landscape stays landscape and posters stay posters, and it scales with the app-wide Text Size setting.
- Fixed focus getting stuck at the clock or in the top menu, and focus now returns to the guide if it is lost.
- Channel List Options apply immediately instead of after leaving and returning to Live TV.
Settings
- The reveal button now works with a remote, and every password and API key field has one.
- Fixed the Display Scale labels running vertically on phones.
Playlists
- Changing a playlist's credentials now signs in as that account, and a playlist signed in as the wrong account repairs itself.
