Vu+ Player for Android

Vu+ Player for Android is now available on Google Play.

It was developed with and for Vu+ users in mind but it should work with any receiver compatibile with Enigma2.

Here are some features:

- Internal video-player with OSD (On Screen Display). No need to download and install external video-player although many others are supported.
- Multiple connection profiles. All receivers on your network can be added
- Browse the EPG and individual channels
- Manage timers (add, edit, delete) either from EPG or manually. This can be done even when away from home
- Search EPG
- Grab screenshots from live TV
- Manage recordings
- Send on-screen messages
- Satellite signal strength meter for dish alignment and adjustment
- Integrated help (English, Italiano, Deutsch)

Some screenshots are attached as well.

If you have any questions, suggestions for improvements, bug-reports etc, please feel free to post them here.

Rgds,
tilleke

Any plans for an iPhone version?

There is already a Vu app for IOS but it has not been updated for quite some time.
tilleke may be able to tell you more himself but I do know he only had a contract to work on the Android app.
It would be great if Vu got him involved with upgrading or developing a new one for IOS.

Nice app, however when searching services in the app it does not populate the epg details.

Currently connecting to my vu duo. Running build 600

I have tried the apple version but it crashes - Won't open.
I use e2remote - feature packed.

great app

Hmm...Do you mean you have changed 8001 as video-streaming port on your receiver? In this moment, it is not possible to change the standard video-port (8001) in the Receiver-profile. However, it will be added.

Maybe as a work-around - it might work - try enabling Transcoding (even if you don't have a Vu+ Solo2) and change the transcoding-port into the port you want to use.

 

[shizik]

yes i have changed default port .
will try enabling transcoding and will inform you how is working

Hello, first off great app but I'm getting the same problem. I will try and give as much detail as possible. I am using your app with vu+duo with vix 3.0 build 562. My OpenWebif settings are yes/14402/no/08001/no. All settings are entered correctly in your app as everything except this problem work great.

If I press

Services/Then select any bouquet/ all channels show 'No EPG available'

If I then press on a channel and select EPG there is no data. If I then press Full EPG, I get 'Could not connect to your receiver! Check your connection and/or settings and try again'

This only happens with TV and not Radio for some reason. I can also search the EPG with no problems.

This fault does not happen with the app I previously used to use, Dreamdroid (not gloating just letting you know incase it is of any help to you in sorting the bug out).

Thanks for all your work in making this app and thanks in advance for any help in sorting this bug :thumbsup:

 

[tilleke]

Thanks for the bug report.

Any chance you can use a setting editor and save your settings and then send them to me using the email found in the apps page on Google Play?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Sorry for being a noob but which settings do you require (vu+ player, openwebif, vu+ player or all 3)? Also do you want a screenshot of settings or is there a program i can use to copy them?

I will help any way I can but I'm sorry I'm not sure how to do what you need. As always thanks in advance.

I am sorry for not being clear enough.

There are tools called Settings Editors (to be installed on a PC) which permit you to edit, import and export your bouquets and channel lists. I was thinking about one of these tools so you could export your Bouquet and Channel list. Some good tools are EnigmEdit and DreamBoxEdit. They are quite straight-forward to use. I don't think I am allowed to put a link but you can find them easily by googling.

If you have any other doubts, please let me know.
