v4.0.0

Hyperion Android Reborn v4.0.0 - the big one.

What's new

• Codec (compatibility) capture method - routes capture through an H.264 encoder/decoder. Fixes black frames on TVs where the standard path returns nothing (TCL, Amlogic, Hisense, ...) and offloads the work to the hardware codec. Pick it in Settings -> Capture Method.
• In-app update checker - you'll be told when a newer release is out and can install it right from the app.
• Capture Resolution setting (Small / Medium / High) for low-RAM devices.
• Home-screen widget to toggle the grabber on/off with one tap (plus the existing quick-settings tile and Toggle shortcut).

Also fixed

• Crash on fresh installs / unset settings
• Reconnect not retrying at startup + a socket leak on screen pause/resume
• Lights not clearing when stopping
• Color command sending the wrong value (blue showed as red, 'clear' showed red)
• Audio visualization never getting mic permission
• A bunch of smaller stability and performance bugs

One universal APK - works on phones, tablets and Android TV (Android 5.0+ / API 21+).

v2.4.5

fixing all issues, this has been actually tested for once lol, but seriously yeah issues should be fixed now.

v2.4.4

Even more fixes

so sorry guys, there was a lot of issues that im trying to fix.

v2.4.3

Redoing update logic and fixing user issues

I have hopefully in this update fixed the update issues and the app can now fully detect and install updates, as well the permissions issue should hopefully be fixed

v2.4.1

**Fixing update issue **

Fixing the issue where itw as checking for updates and spammed it, honestly just more annoying than anything else.

v2.4.0

Fixing issues with memory and TCL tvs.

Comes from @emd and @DASZr on the hyperion forums, the memory issue for content should be reduced and i redid the mapping and the tcl issue is because of the tcl watchdog, i should have hopefully fixed it within this update, however if it isnt working for tcl tv, please follow these steps

Go to Settings > Apps > Hyperion Grabber
Enable "Auto-start" or "Allow background activity" permission
Some TCL TVs have this in Settings > Privacy > Special app access > Auto-start

v2.2.3

HDR was the biggest mistake and wasted nearly 2 hours of time, honestly the fact they want u to send a 720p is shocking.

anyway its removed, and lots of performance enhancements this update.

v2.2.2

Boosting resolution for needed hdr calibration in hyperhdr, idk why it needs 1080x720 or something i forgot.

v2.2.1

Need to stop testing on production..

NV12 had a bug and would cause it to not be sent to the hyperhdr/hyperion server, fixed in this update, aswell disabled NV12 on default as i do not believe its supported in hyperion.

V2.2

Adding HDR support for HyperHDR and enabling auto update and some general improvements.

HDR is enabled by default, but can be disabled in settings, aswell auto updater can easily be ignored, hope you enjoy.

Have a happy new year!
