Is this the local video library/iptv combination player I’ve dreamed of? Take my money!

This app is beautiful, really good work! Very fast zapping time on playback of channels.

Could you also add support for Stalker servers with MAC address based authentication like STB Emu? That would be amazing!

Your application looks promising.

Any screenshots on how it looks on the Apple TV? I just shoot you an email, I’m eager to try it out ;)

My french is really bad so I can't understand all the settings. Do you have a english or german translation file?

PukJB

Looks amazing! But French isn’t really my thing :( any option to get English?

BradzleyB123

By External Screen Support does that mean Chromecast?

PukJB

/u/LillyPlayer looks amazing! Playback is fine! Maybe add an option to deinterlace. Also a bug or I do something wrong. At TV i don’t see any of my channels unless I press a transparant button then I see the channels categories.

But I only see a empty screen when I’m on tv. Films and Series are nice looking with the box art etc

Also maybe add option to choose from hardware acceleration or software

Stop audio/video when going to home screen as the audio continues you really have to press stop before it stops

Really enjoying the app. Works well. And id be willing to help translate if needed as i speak french as well :) The only thing that bothers me is the lifetime price. It is absurdly high. Tivimate (the best iptv player on android) had a lifetime price that was less than 20$. Are there any plans to lower this or have a sale? In Canada, the price is 55$ ??!

Amazing app ! I'd really like to test it on Apple TV as it seems to be the app I was looking for !

Only thing is I think the search function is broken on iOS. When I try to search a movie on my iptv, it does nothing :(

Skyscreamers

Great little player, quite powerful actually, so far on IOS I like the layout, will test it more but bravo to you on a great start

Looks pretty cool. Fair play to you. I just downloaded it for the iphone.

Just wondering if there's any advantages over Plex? I currently have a lifetime membership and use xTeve through it for m3u playback.

Bawk007

Plex integration would be awesome! The way Infuse does it.

Just had a quick test drive (on ATV) and like like it so far! Nice GUI and fast to navigate. Based on my limited use, just a couple of small things with room for improvements :)

  • Mixed English and French
  • When viewing a stream and swiping from above to reveal the menu there would be nice to be able to swipe from the bottom to close it and also have it to close automatically after a few seconds when inactive.
  • Swipe sideways to change channel, I maybe missing something but as far as I understand you have to press menu and choose a new channel/stream from there. Would be nice to change channel by swiping left or right.
  • Subtitle setting doesn’t seem to apply on all channels and can’t find a way to set a default language in the general settings.
  • Is there a way to add favorites?

Really good work, looking forward to see it evolve and improve in the future 👍

Edit: updated and the swiping for zapping channels works really good (and fast) 👍

Add one more wish, a preview of the channels in the list view.

Great as always some little ajustements but generally fantastic keep up the great work.

Is it possible to have .epg url support for m3u?

m3u and epg show under the “sources” tab, is it possible for m3u servers to show under the “tv” tab?

Once the menu button has been pressed the current stream shows in the background while menu overlay is on screen. Is there a way to return to the stream and exit the menu overlay? If not could swipe up be enabled to exit the menu selection overlay and return to the current stream?

Will tvOS version have upnp/Plex support?

This will definitely be a game changer as it integrates some functionalities that made me use KODI. So seep it up mate.

  • On a side note, I will advise that you be careful with price. It's extremely high compared to even apps like IMPlayer which comes with all sorts of functionalities including multi view on Android or IPTVX which is really really good on its own.
amgclk65

So far so good. Epg, looks like it’s in the works and would like the ability to create favorites list using the epg. I’ll definitely pay for that.

christiancs1969

As it is best one out there price is spot on

Catsevo9

i tried app it seems awesome im noob , had to figure out how to put m3u on it and was simple , the price you talk about is for what actually lifetime of what , do you offer subscription service id pay , thank you

-PressAnyKey-
