I have seen this previously is that not infact the app that has for live sparkle tv ? looks like smarters customised to be like a launcher for external apps ?
good idea but i am not sure about it to be honest .
No problems with the app so far, however I am publishing the ads layout as open source on github so anyone can use it fo

You will love this app. Like me you love customisation and this has so much potential.

was wondering though does this feel more like a launcher than an app ? by the looks i may be wrong but it launches Sparkle tv your service movies and series and also an external app in the case above streamio ?

No this is Sparkle with an easier landing screen. The live tv, movies and series are all sparkle. When you click on live it takes you to the original sparkle main page, but the movies and series have been taken out of that part. The external app can be any app you want.

hi pal how did you manage to move the location of the info and get a transparent box around it please ?
Great work I been battling doing this for sometime.
I believe that the tube.php in the api folder is part of the trailer grabbing but not sure how it was constructed.the play trailer seems to have gotten lost along the way

What a gentleman Sanoj. Love your open source mentality, don't ever change!
I understand what the PHP file does when talking to TMDB. A little guidance on your calls from the app would be great (without anyone having to rev-eng obv)
Thank you again for all you do to move this community forward, along with everyone else who contributes... I've learned much from you and others here.

It's a serious mod, and I'm with you here... Not to my taste with the Smarters-esque layout. One of my admins hated Sparkle and Tivimate but this new mod, he's excited about. Not to my taste but still a new approach I havent seen so something to learn from.
where can I find this friend?
So want to help us all out what it he github addy
I will add it soon. It currently has a few bugs. Many people think that it is a .php file but it is actually created through java. Adding it to the app is quite a complicated process

The autoads.php file is what creates poster and has the TMDB API calls in it, then the app just uses a webview from my understanding. Are you changing it so TMDB API calls are handled inside the app instead now? That would be great and then just an option to add TMDB API key on the panel. Looking forward to release
That is awesome. eah I thought for sure it was php. I was messing around. Found that if I point the sports button to my trailer test it does let me click the play trailer button. LOL But That is why yours is awesome and mine is ike gum and duct tape LOL
