Please bring better support for Android TV Oreo

I’m still waiting for Live Channel support :disappointed_relieved:

Similar but different. The channels/rows are like categories and Tablo can do as many as they want on the home screen. Recently recorded like you did for Apple TV but also categories like sports, current live tv, etc all at the same time if the user doesnt toggle them off.

This video from the verge summarizes it briefly. After you’re done taking a look get to work on it :wink:

Thanks

Not to mention that they can be channels as well as shows. There could be live previews for ABC etc right on the home screen vs just images.

@orpheus Funny thing is if Tablo would have done Live Channels support back when they said they were going to they would already have full support for Oreo through the Google Live Channels app.

HD Homerun didnt have to make any changes for Oreo since they support Live Channels. It works amazing on Oreo.

So where did tablo commit do integrating with Live Channels?

Maybe you will get your wish.

But there are usually hundreds of ideas on a road map that never get implemented.

“Something we’d like to do” and not having an ETA is really not a commitment.

I kind of remember a promise from 2014 where tablo promised the Roku app would have feature/function compatibility with the WEB app.

How did that work out after 4 years. Tablo doesn’t even have consistent feature/functionality across it’s existing apps.

I’ve been developing software for customers for many years.

Telling a paying customer in writing their feature request is on their roadmap is absolutely a commitment. ETA or not.

Now lets get back on topic. Please find another thread to police/rant if you have no interest in Tablo releasing Oreo support for Android TV.

Don’t be foolish enough to assume I’m not interested in AndroidTV.

But my life will go on without tablo integration with Live Channels.

And I too was in R&D and I only believe that a feature is committed when product management indicates they are willing to schedule and pay for the feature. And it can be monetized against any other feature on the road map.

Any updates on this ?

Zippy has no interest in anyone pointing out flaws in Tablo’s implementations or plans.

It makes him feel uncomfortable. And we all know, if he feels uncomfortable, then it’s your fault for making feel so.

When I’m interested in AndroidTV, I use Plex on my Nvidia Shield/hdhomerun. So I really never feel uncomfortable. And I doubt that tablo would reveal it’s plans concerning 3rd party vendors until it’s already cooked.

But people are always speculating if the Nvidia Shield will be refreshed on a 2 year cycle at the end of 2019

What you just said has nothing to do with this thread.

Who?

How about “this is on the roadmap”? Is that a commitment, or not?

You managed to avoid that in your blind defense for the Tablo folks and their product.

Your cognitive dissonance shows very strong…

There are many things I would like to do.

But I can’t tell you if I can or will ever have the time and opportunity to do any of them.

But the rumors are that, as it’s approaching corporate budgeting time, Google is evaluating the future and direction of AndroidTV. And the same can probably be said of Nvidia and the Shield.

@zippy Please stop off topic ranting in random threads.

You are wrong anyway. Android TV has had tremendous growth. https://9to5google.com/2019/03/28/android-tv-operator-growth/

Let’s try to keep it civil folks.

We’ve been very focused on building out Tablo-specific features in the Tablo PREVIEW app. Until it reaches feature parity with all other apps (we’re getting close) that will continue to be our focus.

After that, we can consider requests like this.

But only if you start being nice.

Guy on skates…is this the year a Canadian team wins it? Can Ottawa cheer on the Leafs?
