✨ New in 0.23.1

• 📊 Now playing stays put. In Settings → Activity & logs, streams are listed in the order they started.
  With two or more playing, the list no longer reorders itself every few seconds. Episodes show their show, then
  "S1 · E3 — Episode title".
• 📺 Episodes in Kodi's player controls (Kodi add-on 0.14.1). An episode played from the Reelhouse screens shows
  its show with "S1 · E3 — Episode title" under it, the info panel shows the season's cover, and its Next line
  names the episode that comes next. Films show their year and poster.
• 🎮 Android app on a TV remote (app 0.13.1). The focus ring fits small buttons such as Request on the
  Requests page, and Right from a search box reaches its ✕, which clears the search.

⬆️ Updating

• Server: pull the new image and recreate the container. Your settings, libraries and watch history are kept.

✨ New in 0.23.0

• 📺 Live TV in Kodi, the way Kodi shows its own channels. Reelhouse's own player controls show the programme's
  start and end, its progress, how far into it you are, when it ends, and the channel's logo. From them you can
  change channel, record (the button turns red while recording), see the programme's details, and open Kodi's
  subtitle and audio/video settings.
• ⏸️ Pause live TV in Kodi, and go back or forward 10 seconds, with Kodi's InputStream FFmpeg Direct add-on. The
  Reelhouse screens offer to install it the first time they open.
• 🔀 Smoother channel changes. The channel you're leaving keeps playing until the next one has started, so a
  channel that can't play no longer stops the one you're watching.

📱 Installing the Android app

Runs on phones, tablets and TV boxes such as a Fire TV, with Android 7.1 or newer.

Step by step

1. Download reelhouse-0.13.0.apk from the assets below.

Tip

When you upload a newer APK later, every phone offers the update in the app's Settings.
