Version History of vuplusTV

1.4.4

June 10, 2023

- fixing timeout issue with transcoded streams Some receivers take several seconds until they provide transcoded streams. When starting playback, the app ran into a timeout stopped playback and retried. Timeout duration is not longer and with each attempt it gets increased by 50%. This should be sufficient for most DVB receivers. In case you use transcoded streams, you can enable "remote connection" in the settings, which will just increase the timeouts for communication.

1.4.3

April 24, 2023

Hotfix for problems with remote connections

1.4.2

April 16, 2023

- fixed an issue with PIcons not getting loaded from STBs with older versions of OpenWebIF - fixed an issue with matching EPG-Data to some services - fixed an issue with outdated EPG-Data not being updated - fixed an issue with playback not starting correctly. In case Live-TV streams "end", playback window gets closed after a few retries - new feature: "Clear Cache" in Settings: This will disconnect from the STB, clear all cached files (incl. PIcons) and then re-connect to the STB. Especially useful when PIcons are not shown correctly. Refreshing the cached data may take a few minutes. I start to work on a major upgrade of the App with several new features. I am open for suggestions. Stay tuned!

1.2.1

October 18, 2019

Sorry for the delay. You took a long time until I was able to fix the recent issue with "malformed" Service References. I was not able to reproduce them with my setup. The problem showed up, when the Service list is not generated by a service scan but by using 3rd party plug-in lists. These often include IP-TV channels with "malformed" Service references. But finally with the support of my testers and users, who contacted me via vuplustv.com, I was able to fix the issue. - fixed the crash caused by IP-TV services with "malformed" references. - fixed a crash caused when trying to load PIcons from services, which are "hidden" but nevertheless are listed by the STB. The filter to ignore these services is improved - improved visual appearance of dynamically loaded recording locations. These most often are created by Enigma 2 plugins on the STB, but they are not registered in the STB configuration. Now it is easier to navigate through the seasons and episodes of the TV series you recorded. - added localization for Catalan (thanks to Eduard Quiros) - playback is again full screen on iPad Pro with iPadOS 13 - fixed issue with invisible top HUD after iOS 13 update - several further bugfixes and improvements.

Price History of vuplusTV

Description of vuplusTV

This App is a simplistic playback client for TV and Radio streams served by Enigma2 based set-top-boxes (STB) using the OpenWebIF web service running on the STB. Just enter the IP-Address and the port number of your Enigma2-based TV receiver and start watching Live-TV-Streams or Recordings stored on the STB. This App supports use of multiple Bouquets with TV and Radio services and multiple locations with recordings on the STB. With the upper HUD (Swipe Down during playback) you can select the audio channel and activate subtitles. The bottom HUD (Swipe Up during playback) enables zapping through LiveTV streams. During playback of recordings you can pause or use fast forward playback, which is limited because of using an HTTP connection for streaming. Enigma2 is a Linux based Open Source operating system widely used in receivers for satellite or cable TV. The App does not require file sharing (like SMB, FTP, NFS) enabled on the box. It only uses OpenWebIF via HTTP to read the Bouquets with your favorite TV stations and their current EPG information. Same applies for showing all the recordings you made on the STB. HTTPS for accessing OpenWebIF is not yet supported. FTP is used to backup some App data. This App is using VLCKit, licensed with its LGPLv2 license. VLC and VLCKit is a trademark of videolan.org. Vu+ is a registered trademark of Vu+ and Ceru Company Ltd., Korea. This App is not affiliated or endorsed by Vu+ or Ceru Company Ltd. The Vu+ Logo and vuplus as part of the product name are used with kind permission of Vu+ and Ceru Company Ltd. Special thanks to the www.vuplus-support.org forum and their members for the support and the testing efforts.

  • Great app for VU devices.

    Best app to stream content from vu devices.
    BTW ver. 1.4.1 intruduced a small bug on Macs with apple silicon: picons randomly disappear when going back to from player to main TV screen with channel list. It may be related to resizable windows.
  • Great app for VU+.

    Great intuitive app. Connects and works perfectly. Highly recommended. Thank you so much for adding HUD to TV app. Regarding last update: - head in HUD looks too sensitive. One swipe and you're at the end of 3h recording - after checking again skipping 1 min. back and forward works, but only with Siri remote and only by taping edge of the trackpad area and only when tap is selected in setting. Hard press and tapping does nothing in Siri remote (when tap gestures are off in settings) - in iOS app skipping doesn't work at all. Thanks for great work.
