v2.0.1 — 2026-06-14

Playback polish and fixes from real-TV testing on top of v2.0.0.

  • Keep the screen awake while watching — the TV screensaver no longer kicks in during playback
    (live, movies or series); it returns to normal when you pause or stop.
  • Renderer modes — the renderer picker (Settings → Video Player) now offers Smooth (default —
    the direct, TV-optimized path), Auto (picks per device), and Quality (the full mpv GL
    renderer — heavier on weak TVs). Each option shows a one-line hint.
  • Recovers from a busy decoder — a stream that doesn't start (e.g. the hardware decoder is still
    busy right after a TV cold-boot) is now retried automatically a few times before any error shows,
    instead of getting stuck. A transient hiccup no longer drops you to the slower renderer for the
    rest of the session.
  • Smoother subtitles, quieter logs — the app-drawn subtitle overlay is fed more efficiently
    (no more constant background polling).
