E2Stream v5.0 is now available to download from here: [download#26#nohits]

This is a major release (hence the jump to v5.0) and has had some significant changes made to the internal architecture to enable some new functionality

Change log:

v5.0 - 04/01/2015

* Added system sounds to the various functions within the app

* Return now exits from full screen back to the channel list

* Implemented a dialog control to handle new functionality

* Added confirm dialog when using return from channel list

  to exit.  This allows you to make the choice to: 

  - A: Cancel the exit request

  - B: Exit E2Stream App

  - C: Suspend the E2 box and Exit E2Stream

  - D: Deep Suspend the E2 box and Exit E2Stream

  Obviously, if you deep suspend the E2 box, you won't be able

  to use the app again until you wake it up again.

* Added parental control pin and settings to allow you to

  - lock to the starting bouquet only

  - lock the settings options.  

  The PIN is currently visibile in the settings screen when 

  unlocked and will be masked in a later release. 

* Re-architected player encapsulation and startup to allow for 

  an inline switch to the 'legacy' player to try and help with

  compatibilitiy on older model Samsung SMART TVs

* Added Advanced settings to allow you to change from the

  default video player to the legacy player that *might* be

  compatible with C/D Series SMART TVs.  The legacy player is

  only recommended for those with older model TVs, and is

  considered experimental with limited testing right now and

  comes with some known restrictions/limitations.

   - The info-bar overlay doesn't work

   - You have to return to the channel list (enter button) to

     select another channel

   - Skip doesn't work in recordings

   - Player doesn't buffer so might be susceptile to pauses

     if network is congested or slow

* Due to the large number of changes, the app will require you

  to re-input your settings on first execution following an

  install/update.   

Please note, the installation and setup requires you to enable a ‘develop’ account on your TV.
You also need Java v7 or v8 to run the installer.

Change log:

v4.0 - 27/12/2014

* Added paging of channel list using channel up/down in

  the list view screen. (Channel up/down still continues

* Corrected video count positioning in list when more than

  100 channels are in a bouquet and you are playing a double

  or triple digit channel number in the list

* Fixed more service name picon issues with non

  alphanumeric characters

* Fixed previous/next indicators in channel list to 

  highlight when there are further pages of channels.

  and wrap issues.

* Fixed pause on recordings play-back

* Now shows info-bar on pause, rewind, fast forward/skip

  when playing back a recording.

  problem - this needs a better fix to ignore empty 

  bouquets that will come in a future release.

* Resolved zap during full screen play back issue

E2Stream v3.7 is now available to download from here: [download#26#nohits]

Change log:

v3.7 - 21/12/2014

* Resolved minor issue on settings screen. < & > were in 

  the wrong location following introduction of the zap 

  option

* Prevented Bouquet Description from wrapping when the

  description is unusually long

* Modified info bar for recordings to tidy up the progress

  bar and style it like the rest of the info bar, but also

  to resize recording description and show the time 

  remaining

* Corrected progress bar length to prevent run over out of

  the container

* Fixed buffering complete notification issue which

  prevented skip from working in recordings

* Introduced 'alert bar' to alert on conditions, the first

  of these being 'Cannot skip whilst buffering'

* Improved speed of EPG retrieval my making multiple async

  requests for now/next rather than one large request

* Blocked a number of the remote control keys when in full

  screen playback to prevent issues

* Modified start-up to avoid double load of channels/picon

  status check to speed things up and avoid issues with

  picon checks/display

* Improved picon handling by resolving some filename issues

  and avoiding a double check when changing from channels

  to recordings and back again

* Separated REST calls over different XMLHttpRequest objects

  to avoid the race conditions created with the introduction

  of the asynchronous timer code

* Separated AV Player implementation to allow future 

  switching to the legacy player.  These changes are not

  available yet as further modifications are required to

  re-enable the legacy player implementation

* Re-introduced the legacy player class but not enabled yet

  as the Samsung APIs clash meaning a change in player will

  need a restart of the app and this is still to be implemented 

* With the above, implementation of an advanced settings

  screen (yet to be enabled due to some issues) to select 

  the player
