v0.8.4-alpha.1
Pre-release
Pre-release
⚠️ Alpha build — this release is for early testers only. Take a backup before upgrading, expect rough edges, and please report anything broken. Regular users should wait for the upcoming beta.
🎬 Sources and series
- Every configured addon is now visible in Sources, with its result, retry state, and an individual Fetch action in both players and the native TV source browser
- A full episode guide is available in the player; missing episodes can be fetched without leaving playback
- Series Showcase now opens season-pack search, probes only addons that returned magnets, and labels pinned sources clearly
- Single-stream playback keeps clean catalog metadata, while stale addon responses and same-name collisions no longer corrupt merged results
- Quick Play is simpler: arrange a source priority list, then control its behavior with two focused switches
📺 TV experience
- Landscape title cards now work across every Home layout, with larger, better-proportioned live-channel shelves and IMDb ratings on Spotlight cards
- Spotlight navigation is faster and more reliable, including rapid DPAD travel, vertical moves, and opening the sidebar from the left edge
- Showcase and Spotlight transitions are smoother, with preloaded textures, restored artwork fades, unclipped parallax rows, and named action buttons on focus
- Fixed Android TV IPTV HLS streams that could repeatedly stall during playback
📡 Live TV and downloads
- Scheduled recordings resolve the latest channel resource when they begin, so refreshed stream URLs do not break captures
- Profile changes no longer silently cancel queued downloads, desktop recordings, schedules, or native jobs
- Retrying an IPTV load error now re-reads saved sources before fetching again
👥 Profiles and addons
- Addon data, credentials, transfers, backups, and native subtitle lookups are kept isolated to the active profile
- Disabled addons remain visible in the Addons hub, making them easy to find and re-enable
- Startup failures show a redacted diagnostic view that can be shared without exposing private profile data
