What's new
- ThystTV 1.3.1 adds Android TV remote navigation, improves large-screen gesture feedback, and fixes Following cleanup, bookmarks and chat metadata.
- Android TV and large screens - Use the D-pad to move between navigation items, browse lists and tabs, and reach - Stats controls with visible focus. - Reveal and operate player controls with the remote, including quality, speed, volume and More. Closing a popup restores player focus. - Focused tabs and channel headers stay visible. Channel profiles collapse to leave room for content while keeping the toolbar and tabs available. - Brightness and volume gesture indicators are larger on wide video surfaces and adapt to short or resized windows. - Playback-speed labels avoid long decimal values.
- Fixes and translations - Following releases destroyed pager and list views, adapters and observers. - Refreshing bookmarks preserves their saved identity and updates metadata and art. - Growing VoDs keep saved positions beyond an outdated duration. Cached or missing artwork no longer causes an automatic restart; explicit timestamps still win. - Local follow status works when an account ID remains without usable API tokens. - Chat profiles use the correct viewer for follow-date lookup where permissions allow it. Failed permission checks still allow the profile to open. - Chat-color responses are handled on HttpEngine and legacy Cronet. - Updated compatible German, Japanese, Spanish and Russian translations.
