About

Interlace Player

Read full description

Interlace plays your media server – Plex, Jellyfin or Emby – and your IPTV channels in a single, quiet interface. What you own and what is on air, in the same rails, the same search, the same player. WHAT IT DOES • One home: Continue Watching from your media server next to what is on TV right now. • A programme guide that groups your provider's channels, pins favourites and reads like a TV guide: now, next, tonight. • Plays what Plex struggles with: direct play for MKV, TS, Dolby Digital Plus, TrueHD and 7.1 through the built-in FFmpeg engine, with image and text subtitles rendered on the device. No transcoding on your server. • Made for the living room: the same app on Apple TV, laid out for the remote. Pick the Apple TV from your phone, and the phone becomes the remote. • Discover what is new on Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV+ and others with your own free TMDB key, and see where a title streams in your region. • Multiview: up to four live channels at once – the sound follows your pick, and on Apple TV any channel opens full screen and back. • Picture in Picture: keep a channel or film running in a corner while you watch something else. • Watch offline: download films and episodes from Plex, Jellyfin, Emby or your provider's catalogue (iPhone, iPad and Mac). Downloads continue in the background and pick up where they stopped. • Optional: connect Overseerr or Jellyseerr to request titles. WHAT YOU NEED • A media server, yours or one shared with you: Plex, Jellyfin or Emby. With Plex, remote streaming needs a Plex Pass on the server owner's account or a Remote Watch Pass on yours; on the home network it plays without either. Or skip the media server and use only IPTV. • For live TV: an M3U playlist or Xtream login from your own IPTV provider. Interlace ships no channels. What a playlist contains, and your right to watch it, is between you and that provider. PRIVACY • No account with us, no analytics, no tracking. Your credentials stay on the device and in your own iCloud keychain. INTERLACE PRO • Try everything free for 30 days. • Afterwards, watching needs Interlace Pro: 14,99 € per year (auto-renewing) or 39,99 € once. Browsing, the guide and search stay free. • One purchase unlocks iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Mac. Family Sharing included. • Terms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Interlace is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed or certified by Plex Inc., the Jellyfin project or Emby LLC.

About

SafeOne Player

Features
Read full description

SafeOne is a player for the IPTV playlist you already have. We do not provide or sell content: you connect your own provider's playlist (Xtream Codes or M3U) and SafeOne makes watching it comfortable. Designed in landscape, end to end. No rotating the phone, no menus meant for another screen: every control sits where your thumb reaches while you hold the device. WHAT YOU GET • Live TV with a guide — see what is on every channel straight from the list, with a progress bar. Open the day guide and tap a programme that already aired to watch it again, if your provider allows it. • A complete player — switch audio tracks and subtitles, adjust speed, set the sleep timer, lock the screen so nothing gets tapped by accident, and control brightness and volume by sliding over the video. Swipe sideways to change channel. • Movies and series — with artwork, synopsis, seasons and episodes. Pick up exactly where you left off, on any of your devices. • A home that changes with you — the cover shows what you left unfinished and what is new in your own playlist, with details and synopsis. • Profiles for the household — everyone with their own favourites and continue watching. The kids profile hides adult content. • Light and dark themes — sixteen combinations, for daytime and for watching at night without being dazzled. • Built to keep working — if a channel drops, it reconnects on its own. It stores your catalogue so it opens instantly and keeps going even when your provider has a bad moment. And if something fails, the diagnostics screen tells you exactly where the problem is. HOW TO START Open the app and you will see your device code. You can type your playlist details right there, load them from the web portal, or use the code your reseller gave you. Just want to see it working? Tap "Explorar demo" and try the app with royalty-free content, no sign-up. IMPORTANT SafeOne is only a player. It does not include, sell or offer channels, movies or events. You need your own IPTV playlist, contracted by you with the provider of your choice. Nothing is purchased or renewed inside the app.
