What's New in Livedio
1.1
September 9, 2026
Livedio 1.1 is our biggest update so far. New 1. Record a live channel to your own server over SMB. Nothing is saved on this device. 2. Your recordings get a place of their own, so you can find and play them. 3. Schedule a recording from the guide or from a match. 4. Start a recording on another of your devices at home, for example let the Apple TV record while you are on the Mac. 5. Your recording folder and your schedules follow you across your devices. 6. Catch-up now reaches back as far as your provider really offers, instead of stopping after a few hours. 7. Home has separate shelves for favourite movies and favourite series, and you can merge them again. Fixed 1. Match reminders could arrive a day late. They now arrive on time, also when the app is closed. 2. Favourites added on the Apple TV never appeared on the Home screen. 3. On the Apple TV the remote could not reach the star and match buttons on a series page. 4. Some fixtures showed the wrong day and no channel line. 5. After a live stream reconnects, sound and picture come back into step much sooner. 6. Watched progress now syncs between your devices. 7. A playlist synced to a second device arrived without its guide address. 8. Sync kept uploading records that had not changed, which cost battery and data. 9. Recording is steadier: a dropped stream is picked up again, and a folder the share refuses to open no longer removes recordings from the list.
