It's recommended you take a backup of .dizquetv or .pseudotv folder (or your docker volume) before trying a new version. Just in case so that you can revert back with no issue. dizqueTV will attempt to migrate your folder to the new version. pseudoTV users please rename the folder to .dizqueTV before running this.

Changes in 1.2.0:

1.2.x versions are considered edge versions. Which means that they come with new features that change dizqueTV in a noticeable way and aren't as thoroughly-tested as the stable versions. Check the Versions page at the wiki for more info about what version to pick.

1.2.0 brings plenty of features, most of them are related to the channel editor.

Improvements
  • The Channel editor has been reworked altogether.
    • Tabbed interface, settings are divided in 5 categories: Properties, Programming, Flex, EPG and ffmpeg
    • Tools now render in a vertical side-bar. The position (left or right) can be configured and the web interface will remember if you had the tools visible and their position. They also received visual improvements and a reorganization.
    • Tool help now renders next to their buttons.
    • It's now possible to configure how Flex time segments will render in the TV guide.
    • The minimum length required for a program to appear in the TV guide (or else it is treated the same as flex time) can be configured.
    • Channels can have their own resolution and video framerate/buffer settings , separate from the global configuration.
  • New channel tool: Time Slots. It allows you to create lineups for a large quantity of days following a time-based schedule you pick for the channel's programs. TV shows can be played ordered or shuffled. The schedule can be edited after being applied. It is also available as an endpoint so that this feature can be part of automation.
  • Maximum framerate setting in ffmpeg tab. It's 60 fps by default. Many TV clients don't support 60fps well, so setting it to 30 fps might help in playback.
  • New channel tool that can fast-forward or rewind the channel's programming.
    • Channel overlay featured renamed to Channel Watermark, its positioning and width is percentage-based by default. But the width can be set to a fixed size if you want. A different image can be used so that it doesn't have to use the same image as the channel's icon. There's an option to enable looping in animated pngs or gifs (and you can use animated pngs and gifs)
Minor
  • It's now possible to add channel redirects to completely empty channels
  • It also has the new favicon from 1.1.2

In addition, 1.2.1 comes with all the bug fixes from 1.1.3. And the following 1.2-specific fixes:

  • The Safari bug with rows that look super tiny has also been fixed for the channel editor in 1.2.1.
  • Fix #163 The option "Minimum program duration to appear in TV guide" now accepts duration 0.

Note about a Plex DVR bug

There's currently a bug in Plex DVR that makes it repeat videos instead of advancing to the next episode. Please read this Plex bug report for more info: https://forums.plex.tv/t/live-tv-restarts-show-after-completion-in-web-player/634004
