Vushio News

Needs Android TV Remote Service  from version 5 on. Because of the different vendor specific implementations of Android TV software, there can be problems which are not solved yet. 

The App was tested with the generic software Android TV versions 15 and 16 and I will try to fix problems I'm aware of.

There are Apps for Media Center and Android TV avaliable. On the phone, only the app can deliver links and not the website, both behind a login. Vushio does not support import, because it would need the users credentials. 

Only Android TV has a Netflix app. On the phone, all links from app or website are behind a login . Vushio does not support import, because it would need the users credentials. 

Joyn is a streming site in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, the Joyn Android phone app doesn't have a share option, only the website delivers streaming links. The Joyn Android TV app does not accept links from the network and therefore the platform is only supported on Media Center systems. On Android TV the app will open, but without showing the video from the sending link.

Sending text to different TV apps depends on the app itself and can have large delays of several seconds. 

To connect to Android TV, the Android TV Remote Service must run and have permission to nearby devices. Sometime you have to explicit "open" the app, otherwise the ports 6466/7 are closed. Similar remote access permission could be necessary, for example VLC as a player for SMB files.
