Great app!! Works very very well!! I've run this app on my Nvidia shield with next to no issues and if there were issues it was usually down to my set up. Was able to search and record my IPTV. I Moved over to a Philips TV and have this running also, albeit with a slight more awkward way of DVR recording, but this is the same for Philips and Sony tv's. Support is first class. Would love to see the app running like it should on the TVs but until then, it does what it says on the tin! Great app!

So far so good! I was looking for an app that integrated with my hdhomerun and live channels whilst allowing me to turn off timeshift to improve stability and take the strain off the storage on my shield. This app does all of that and provides plenty of settings to suit all types of setups. I also appreciate the option to get a month's subscription to try the premium services before committing to a one off payment. Thanks!

Great app allowing multiple iptv playlists. Lots of options for choosing which channels you want to include and the category you would like it to show up in. Better than other apps I have used and happy to pay for the full version. My only issue is when commercials start it seems to cause the video to buffer. On some channels it will return to the tv program, on others it will just freeze. Is there a setting I should be using? Using Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019. Edit - I turned timeshift off and life is good again!
