This application is an Android TV streaming player that functions as a self-hosted IPTV client, a DASH live TV player, and an M3U playlist viewer. It is designed for television screens and supports navigation via remote control or touch gestures.
The player delivers live television channels using DASH adaptive bitrate streaming, adjusting quality based on bandwidth. Video sources are configured by loading local or remote playlist files in M3U, text, or JSON formats, or by scanning a QR code that encodes a URL or serialised playlist data. Users can switch channels, bookmark favorite channels for quick access, and persist those selections across sessions.
Beyond the core playback and navigation, the system includes automatic generation of release version metadata from git tags for build pipelines, supporting structured deployment.
