CineFuze 1.3.7

CineFuze 1.3.7

• No stutter with interlaced films: in 1.3.6 an interlaced film (1080i, e.g. a TV recording or a DVD rip) could lose dozens of pictures a second, the picture stuttering every 200 ms. The player now watches the decoder's real picture rate (an interlaced film comes out at twice the rate its file states) and hands the pictures to the display ahead of their time by that. Measured: no picture lost in a minute of the same film (353 in 10 seconds before); 60p Dolby Vision and 24p films with subtitles still play without a single one lost.
• Subtitle delay: the first row of the player's subtitle panel moves the subtitles against the picture, as the audio panel does the sound – Left / Right by 0.1 s, held by 0.5 s, up to 60 s either way; OK sets it back to 0. It is for the playback, and the AI translation's subtitles follow it too. (#30)
• Sources: on Settings / Sources a source's whole address (smb://server/share/folder) has a line of its own, with the buttons under it – beside the buttons it was cut to "smb://19…". (#39)

CineFuze 1.3.6

CineFuze 1.3.6

• AI subtitle translation (Gemini): an English text subtitle translated into your language while the film plays, always ahead of the picture. Its source can be the film's own English text track (MKV), a file next to the film, one loaded by hand or one downloaded from OpenSubtitles. Settings / Subtitles / "AI subtitle translation (Gemini)": a free Google AI Studio key is enough (aistudio.google.com/apikey) – type it, or scan the QR code with your phone and paste it there. The language to translate into is a setting of its own. Lines translated once are kept for the next time you watch.
• Online subtitles (OpenSubtitles): in the player's subtitle panel, with no key and no account. For your own files it also sends the file's fingerprint, so subtitles made for that very release come first; for an add-on's stream it searches by the IMDb id. The hits come in the subtitle language, the interface's language and English; the one you pick is downloaded and loaded straight away.
• Load a subtitle file by hand: from the subtitle panel, off the network (SMB) or the box's own drives – for an add-on's stream too. A subtitle that is not UTF-8 is read in the usual code page of its language, so accented letters come out right.
• Settings: the subtitles have a category of their own now (language, forced only, size, background, colour, AI translation and its language). At the bottom of the screen a long description rolls up by itself after a few seconds, so all of it can be read.
• No stutter at a subtitle change: with SDR and HDR10 films a picture could be lost at a subtitle change (measured: 8 in 90 seconds). The player now hands every picture to the display ahead of its time and between its refreshes, as it did for Dolby Vision pictures only – on the same film, 79 subtitle changes without a single one lost.
• Hybrid films (Dolby Vision + HDR10+): with the setting on HDR10+, HDR10+ really reaches the TV. The box's Dolby Vision core took the metadata before, so Dolby Vision was sent anyway.
• Dolby Vision detection: dual-track profile 7 MP4 films (base and enhancement layer in separate tracks) showed as SDR on the detail page and in the INFO panel, although they played as Dolby Vision. Every film's facts are read again at the library's next refresh.
• Identify: the search field also takes a TMDB number or an IMDb id ("603", "tmdb 603", "tt0133093"), and a themoviedb.org or imdb.com link can be pasted in. For a bare number the films of that title come first, then the film of that number.
• Sources: on Settings / Sources the ▲ and ▼ buttons reorder them; the Folders view follows the same order. (#38)
• Seek preview images: when their making is interrupted (a film starts, the screensaver, the app goes to the background), it goes on from where it stopped instead of starting over.
• Cast: a long name or character name simply disappeared from its cell; it is now shortened with "…" on the detail page, and written in smaller letters in the full cast list.

CineFuze 1.3.5

• Frame by frame (Amlogic boxes only for now): while a movie is paused, Left / Right steps one frame, held it seeks as before; the OSD shows "Frame n · h:mm:ss.mmm". Exact on Blu-rays too (ISO, and a movie taken over from the Dune's Blu-ray menu).
• Search your own library: the magnifier in the header (or the remote's Search key) – films, TV shows, collections and albums as you type; accents and a leading article don't matter.
• Detail pages: the countries a film or show was made in next to the director, and the age rating as a badge after the star rating. The rating is that of the TMDB language's country (Settings / Library / TMDB language, now with regional variants such as English (United Kingdom)); without one there, the US rating, marked "US".
• Title order: a leading article doesn't count ("The Matrix" under M, "A Beautiful Mind" under B), in the A–Z jump row too.
• TMDB server (Settings / Library): your own API address, image address and API key, for where TMDB can't be reached; left blank, TMDB's own.
• TMDB lookup: "&" and "and" (and the other interface languages' "and") are the same word ("Tom and Jerry" finds "Tom & Jerry" and back); in the manual Identify dialog Down always reaches the Search button.
• Music: WavPack (.wv) files go into the music library with their tags, cover and length (the movie player opened them before); APE files' tags are read too.
• Music: the spectrum moves for DSD128 / DSD256 tracks as well; the player names the DSD class ("DSD256 · 11.3 MHz").
• Seek preview images: their making shows on the wall's top line (the movie, its per cent, the movies to go).
• Local drives (USB): the whole drive is no longer listed every 5 minutes (the disks can spin down) – it is looked at when the app comes to the front and when a drive is connected.

• Remote: the digit keys jump to that tenth of the movie (5: half way, 0: the start).
• Realtek boxes (Dune Real Vision 4K, Zappiti): a movie taken over after the Dune's Blu-ray menu no longer gets stuck (error -1002).
• Add-ons: add-on files saved oddly install too (a double BOM, Notepad's "Unicode", a Windows code page, the file saved as a JSON string) – they failed with "Value … of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject"; what is no add-on file (a saved web page, for example) gets a clear message.
• TMDB lookup: better title guessing from file and folder names (dash-separated and glued names, a year in front, a second title in brackets, more release words).

CineFuze 1.3.3

CineFuze 1.3.3

• Hybrid movies (Dolby Vision + HDR10+) play as Dolby Vision by default – some TVs (Philips, MediaTek) switched to HDR10+ although Dolby Vision was playing (Settings / Playback / Hybrid movies).
• Music on Dune HD boxes (Settings / Audio / Music at its own sample rate): no more stall a moment into every track, nor after a seek.
• Player: after the chapter list (MENU) of a paused movie, Play on the bar can be reached again.
• In-app update: CineFuze starts again by itself after it on every box – on Realtek boxes (Dune Real Vision 4K, Zappiti) it closed and stayed closed before. (There, coming from 1.3.2, this one update still needs a manual start.)
• Movie page: the file's name in the Technical details card (Settings / Appearance, off by default).
• Add-ons: CineFuze add-on files built on TMDB's lists (with CineFuze's own TMDB key, a genre filter); a Stremio add-on kept as a file installs from the server address it names; browsing the box's drives on Android 11+ (TVs, for example) can ask for "all files access", without which add-on files do not show. See ADDONS.md.

• AV1: 4K AV1 movies play on the box's hardware decoder – before, there was no picture and the refresh rate did not switch.
• Edit menu (formerly Menu tabs): the order of the tabs and categories can be changed too, Left / Right on a row moves it (Settings / Appearance).
• Collections: a movie's versions (4K and 1080p, other cuts) are on one poster on the collection's page too, with their count.

CineFuze 1.3.1

• HDR10+ as Dolby Vision: HDR10+ movies can play as Dolby Vision 8.1 on a DV TV, dynamically: frame by frame from the movie's own HDR10+ metadata, not a static mapping like VS10 (Settings / Playback, off by default).
• Spoiler guard for TV shows: the pictures of episodes you have not seen yet are blurred, optionally their descriptions are hidden too (Settings / Appearance).
• Trailers: YouTube trailers with an ad in front of them (Disney, Pixar and others) now play; a countdown shows in the trailer's place while it waits.
• Trailers: a video that does not play is skipped for the next one, and several trailers in a row load again.
• INFO panel: HDR metadata for add-on streams too.
