v1.10.0 — Update checker + refreshed README

Added

• Opt-in update checker: one-time consent (default off), background new-version check, gentle notice via a Settings badge and What's New banner. Toggle in Settings -> Playback.
• README: live download badge, current version, Telegram contact.

Install: Apps2Samsung (recommended) or Tizen Studio CLI — see README.

v1.9.0 — Tokenized live playlists play reliably

Fixed (BUG-017)

Tokenized live playlists (e.g. kliv) no longer die after the first frame with Connection lost / Shaka 4032:

• Stale-segment and disabled-variant failures retry with a fresh playlist fetch (new token)
• Access-denied (403/401) at load retries twice with a fresh token before erroring
• Clearer messages when a live stream breaks up; removed invalid Shaka config keys

Install: Apps2Samsung (recommended) or Tizen Studio CLI — see README.

v1.8.0 — Settings remote fixes + stream compatibility

Fixed (BUG-011 – BUG-016)

• Settings remote OK now saves — playlist renames persist, quality toggles no longer revert (BUG-011)
• Enter inside Settings text fields works on TV — Proxy URL saves, playlist forms submit/advance (BUG-012)
• Crashing channels retry in compatibility mode instead of cryptic engine errors (BUG-013)
• Unrecognized channel links are probed and retried with the correct format; error codes corrected to Shaka 5.x with real 403 detection (BUG-014)
• Proxy hint position fixed to bottom center (BUG-015)
• Settings back-button spacing fixed (BUG-016)

Install: Apps2Samsung (recommended) or Tizen Studio CLI — see README.

v1.7.0 — Black screen fix + plain English errors

v1.7.0 — Black screen fix + plain English errors

Fixed

• BUG-010: Black screen on some IPTV channels — Shaka Player now correctly detects raw TS/MP4 stream formats, HLS date-time sync is enabled, and video element errors are caught and shown to users.
• Faster failure feedback — Streams that won't play now fail in 15s instead of 30s, with a clear error message.
• Reconnect limit — Stops retrying after 3 attempts and shows a clear message instead of looping forever.

Changed

• All error messages rewritten in plain English — No more technical jargon. Users now see messages like "This channel could not play" instead of "MediaError code 2003".

Install

Download the .wgt file and install via:

tizen install -n EN-IPTV_Player_v1.7.0_79d627f.wgt -s <TV_IP>

v1.5.0 - New App Logo

v1.5.0 - 2026-08-30

• Updated community JSON for auto-release detection.

Files

• EN-IPTV_Player.wgt — Ready to install on Samsung Tizen TV

v1.4.0

v1.4.0 — Channel Name Marquee Scroll

Added

• Channel name marquee scroll — long channel names auto-scroll horizontally in the sidebar so the full name is readable

Fixed

• Sequential channel numbers in sidebar
• Channels sorted alphabetically within groups
• Sidebar scroll not showing focused item at bottom of list
• Instant channel switch on Up/Down, toast auto-hides after 0.5s
• Consistent Left/Right sidebar navigation

v1.3.0 — Responsive TV Scaling

What's New

• Responsive TV scaling — UI components scale proportionally based on screen size
• Minimum 1.35x scale — Components are 35% larger for comfortable couch viewing
• Settings page — Now uses 100% width instead of fixed 1920px

How It Works

The app detects your TV's screen resolution and scales all UI elements proportionally:

• 1080p TV → 1.35x scale (35% larger)
• 4K TV → 2x scale (double size)
• 720p TV → 1.35x scale (minimum for readability)

See CHANGELOG.md for complete history.

v1.2.1 — Back Button Fix

What's Fixed

• Back button now closes sidebars one by one — Left sidebar closes first, then right sidebar, then exit
• Previously, back on left sidebar showed group list instead of closing it
