VodMax 0.6.16
VodMax 0.6.16 shows the picture of catch-up programmes on LG TVs, adds a volume control to the web players, takes the provider's full link in the Xtream Codes server field, and stops a false "recordings disk full" warning on phones that run VodMax on their own.
Fixes
- Catch-up with sound but no picture on LG TVs. In the browser and the LG TV app, a programme from the provider's archive came as an MP4 made on the fly by the server, which LG's own player does not handle: the sound started, the picture did not, or playback stopped after a few seconds. The archive now comes as MPEG-TS at playing speed and plays through the same player as recordings. Seeking, pausing and going on to the end of a programme still on air work as before. This needs FFmpeg 6.1 or later on the server (the Docker image, Debian 13 and Ubuntu 24.04 have it); with an older FFmpeg, such as Debian 12's, catch-up plays as before. The Android app has its own player and does not change.
- "Recordings disk full (0.0 GB free)" on a phone used as the server. VodMax running inside the Android app does not record, but the status check measured the disk of the folder the app runs in, Android's read-only system area, which always has 0 bytes free. The warning was false and is gone. This one needs the new APK.
- Guide warnings in your language. "Guide of … not updated" showed the provider's error in Italian ("guida: risposta HTTP …"). It now follows the interface language, also for external guides.
- A catch-up request replaced by a newer one (for example while seeking) is no longer logged as a failed conversion.
New
- Volume (#8): a mute button and a volume slider in the player of films, series, catch-up and recordings, and in live TV. The level is remembered on each device and is the same for live TV and films. With the slider selected, Up and Down change it; Left and Right still move along the bar. Not in the Android app, which uses the device's volume keys; on iPhone and iPad only the mute button shows, since there the level belongs to the buttons on the side.
- The provider's full link as the Xtream Codes server. Paste
…/get.php?username=…&password=…or…/player_api.php?…in the Server field: user and password fill in by themselves and only the address stays in the field. The credentials are stored encrypted like typed ones. Before, the link was refused with "use the dedicated fields".
Updating
vodmax-update on a server, the new image for Docker. The database does not change. Update the Android app too if you use the phone as the server (the disk warning). The LG TV app loads the interface from the server, so updating the server is enough there.
In breve
La 0.6.16 fa vedere l'immagine delle repliche sulle TV LG: l'archivio del provider ora arriva come MPEG-TS a velocità di riproduzione e lo riproduce lo stesso player delle registrazioni (serve FFmpeg 6.1 o più recente sul server; con uno più vecchio resta come prima). Arriva il volume nei player web e nella diretta (#8), e nel campo Server di Xtream Codes si può incollare il link completo del provider: utente e password si compilano da soli. Sul telefono usato come server sparisce il falso "disco delle registrazioni pieno" (serve il nuovo APK), e gli avvisi della guida sono nella lingua dell'interfaccia. Il database non cambia.
