XCUI Streams v3.8.8

This release fixes playback startup/navigation and fully repairs Search across modern Xtream providers.

Highlights

Search now queries the real Live TV, catch-up, VOD, and Series catalogs, including providers requiring category-aware VOD requests and older legacy panel fallbacks.
A cancellable progress window shows the active search section and overall percentage.
Closing a search result returns to the same query and results; reaching the main menu clears that active search so the next Search starts fresh.
Live TV keeps the canonical channel name visible when EPG data is present instead of allowing the current programme title to replace or obscure it.
Generated PVR M3U entries use the real channel name for tvg-name and preserve the provider EPG ID for programme matching.
Last Played and Recently Watched now follow Kodi's playable-item resolver contract, eliminating associated directory/focus errors.
Playback activates fullscreen automatically without leaving resident plugin threads behind.
Clear Cache confirms before deletion and shows an explicit result.
Endpoint fallback, JSON persistence, credential encoding/redaction, icon probing, and network timeouts are more robust.
