QuasiTV

For those unaware, plex recently had a data breach with compromised many of it's users passwords and were strongly encouraging password resets and unauthorizing all devices.  Those who did this may have found it annoying to re setup QuasiTV due to the loss of custom channels when logging in to a server. Fear no more!  1.6.0 will try its best to maintain custom channels if you log in to the same server as before.  On top of that, importing channels from other QuasiTV instances is now much easier with the addition of "Import All".  You now will now have the ability to import all channels (non duplicates) from a single server through a single selection instead of having to manually import each channel.   QuasiTV 1.6.0 (2022/08/25): Added ability to import all channels from another quasitv instance all at once Re-logging into the same server will no longer delete custom channels Updated exoplayer to 2.18.1

Movie posters finally look normal! 1.5.3 (2022/08/18): Player controls should now auto hide after 5 seconds of inactivity Fixed movie poster scaling in channel guide Other various fixes 

QuasiTV is now available on ChromeOS devices that support android apps / google play.  

QuasiTV 1.5 adds a new audio and subtitle track selection UI plus a lot of minor improvements.  The web admin UI was cleaned up a bit and I began updating the app to support Windows 11 and ChromeOS.  QuasiTV is not available through play store yet on ChromeOS, but after some more testing I plan on making it available in one of the 1.5.x patches. Another change is the ability to choose direct play support for specific audio formats.  Many times the device itself doesnt accurately report what it can support, so allowing the user to override seemed like the best option.  Right now only EAC3, AC3, DCA/DTS, and TrueHD have this ability, but please reach out to me via email / forums / discord if there is another format I missed (formats like aac / mp3 are supported on all devices via android).  Note: This might not work immediately since the audio format information needs to sync from the server, which is triggered to happen every 8 hours or so. QuasiTV 1.5.0 (2022/06/07): New: Added audio t

Changes over the last 2 weeks: 1.4.1 (2022-04-02): -Show polling server status when linking to plex/emby accounts -Force direct play now defaults to off -Improve error messages when failing to connect to servers on setup -New premade movie channels should no longer be scheduled in alphabetical order 1.4.2 (2022-04-08): Fixed transcoding on jellyfin/emby Improved transcoding video quality on jellyfin/emby 1.4.3 (2022-04-12): Plex Server: Attempt to use http connection if https fails Added 'Controls' option to main menu that shows popup with the QuasiTV controls

QuasiTV has finally been updated to support plex's newer tv show agent.  Premade channels previously would only use the "studio" field, which in the new agent was changed to contain the production studio instead of the actual tv network.  This made the auto channel generation not very useful.  1.4 will now retrieve each show's actual network from plex (if using the new agent) and use that for channel generation instead.  For those users wanting to regenerate their channels, go to the settings -> setup (not login) to rerun all the initial channel creation.  If you do have custom channels named after actual networks, I recommend either deleting or renaming them as it might conflict with the auto channel generation. Server selection is also now supported.  If more than one server is associated with your plex or emby connect account, you will be prompted to choose a specific server like in the image below. QuasiTV 1.4.0 (2022-03-29): Added server selection for users wi

I forgot to post about the 1.3.x updates.  It's mostly bugfixes.   QuasiTV 1.3.0 (2021-12-07): Updated dependencies. exoplayer to 2.16.1 Added 'Shuffle Show/Movie Order' and 'Ignore Specials' to channel scheduler rules Improved padding when editing channel scheduler rules  Fixed issue where episode description is blank in channel guide Fixed scheduling setting max consecutive shows to 1 QuasiTV 1.3.1 (2021-12-28): Fixed episodes/movie descriptions for Jellyfin/Emby servers Work on 1.4 has began which will contain a server selection UI for users to choose from multiple plex/emby connect servers associated with their account.  I also have a plan to support plex's never tv agent with the premade channel generation.  Plex has still not exposed the "network" field, but I do believe I can leverage their "network" filtering apis to determine the actual network of each show.
