New in 2.1 UPDATE
Player and UI
- EXIT PLAYBACK? confirmation when pressing CIRCLE in the player —
and playback returns to the page that started it, not the home menu - WEB BROWSER tile removed from the main menu
- BROWSE USB now scans all USB ports (usb0-usb3) at once in one list
- Left analog stick navigates every menu like the d-pad; hold it in a
direction for continuous auto-scroll - Decoder fluidity: AV1/VP9 UHD software decode skips in-loop filtering
on non-reference frames (same treatment as HEVC), and live UDP/RTSP
IPTV streams open with a low-delay, fast-probe configuration - Network stream anti-freeze pack: PTS discontinuities (HLS playlist
restarts, IPTV source switches) re-anchor the clock instead of
exploding the A/V delta; a sustained >3s desync snaps back in sync;
a stalled audio consumer can no longer deadlock the demux (the oldest
audio packet is dropped so video keeps flowing); network packet queues
grew to 384/384; after an underrun playback holds until ~1.5s of video
is buffered; HTTP gets an 8 MB socket buffer and auto-reconnect on
4xx/5xx errors - The bundled FFmpeg already includes every relevant decoder module
(H.264, HEVC, AV1, VP9, MPEG-2/4, AAC, AC3, E-AC3, DTS, TrueHD, ALAC,
FLAC, Opus, Vorbis, WMA, PCM) and protocol (HTTP/S, HLS, RTSP, RTP,
UDP, RTMP, MMSH) — compatibility is limited by CPU speed, not codecs
IPTV
- IPTV hub with 3 entries: CHANNEL LIST, CUSTOM URL / STREAM, LOAD M3U FILE
- Dedicated channel list page: TRIANGLE searches channels by name/group,
SQUARE reloads playlists; channel cap raised to 2500 - M3U scanning now covers
/data/PS Playplus every subfolder of usb0/usb1
Stremio (native addon client)
thanks to Stuey-81 for providing his work on [Nuvio-Portable] (https://github.com/Stuey-81/Nuvio-Portable)
- New STREMIO tile (stylized PC icon): a native Stremio-compatible
client (Nuvio-style) built into the player — no web engine needed - MOVIES and SERIES pages with posters (disk-cached), title details
and episode lists for series; TRIANGLE searches inside the catalog - Addons from txt: paste your addon manifest URLs (one per line) in
USB0/PS Play/Stremio_addons.txt(auto-created with a template) or in
/data/PS Play/Stremio_addons.txt— both load automatically when you
open the Stremio page - Every addon media URL gets a playback attempt (http/https/magnet-like
schemes alike); if it cannot play, the ffmpeg error is shown - STREMIO > SETTINGS: add an addon manually with the system keyboard,
force-reload the USB txt file, or open the addon list (set active /
remove) - Catalogs always come from a catalog-capable addon; stream sources
are aggregated from ALL installed stream addons, like real Stremio —
stream-only addons (ex. Torrentio, AnimeSub+, ...) so it doesn't break the
MOVIES / SERIES pages - Stream sources open directly in the native player (HTTP/HTTPS/HLS);
torrent-based sources are listed but not playable yet, need a
Tidier /data
- All app files now live in
/data/PS Play/(log, resume state, web
history, Stremio addons, poster cache) instead of flooding the
system /data folder; 2.0 files are migrated automatically
