Have something to say?
2 Bugs and 1 Feature Request - Only Watch Next and Continue Watching on the Home Screen
Good morning, I have two bugs to report: with the latest version of Dispatch (beta from the Play Store). When I try to log in to the admin account with a PIN, I have to enter the PIN within a few seconds, otherwise it gives me Auth Refuse. In non-admin profiles, the home screen only shows Watch Next and Continue Watching. It doesn't show YouTube, Stream, Prime Video, or anything else that it does in the admin account. I'd like to ask if it's possible to add the "hide app tab" feature. Thank you.
Plezy support
Add the option for the Plezy app to be used as an alternative player to the Plex app when opening content from the movie or television section of Dispatch launcher.
"no items to display" on the home page
for the last week or so, dispatch has been struggling to load the home page, i turn my tv on and it simply says “no items to display” i can temporarily fix it by going into my ATV settings and force closing it, then it launches properly, but once it (i assumes get suspended) in the background, it reverts back to “no items to display”
Ignore previous post, could not delete it. Reason I bought the app and what I would like to add
It look fantastic, no adverts, the Watchlist has the number of unwatched episodes. All that is missing is, in plex Watchlist when you click on the tv show it shows if it on plex player or on a streaming service, if on plex it will launch the plex player, if on a streaming service it will launch it and play the episode. OMG I would pay towards your development time
Fire stick support
Not sure if possible, but would be great if we could get this to work on fire sticks ?
Dolby Vision Not Working
When I start playback in the Plex App itself, Dolby Vision works absolutely fine. However when I start playback from the Dispatch UI, Dolby Vision never activates, it always goes back to HDR10. I have tried with both the Plex player and the Dispatch Experimental player, same issue. Using a Nvidia Shield Pro 2019 with Dispatch Beta 166. Any possible fix for this?
Music streaming support, such as Spotify apple music etc
Full Spotify, apple music ect would be amazing, with a music tab accompanying movies and TV giving a similar aggregated view of what you been listening too, fave albums etc
bug witht he apps list
i had this bug for a bit now but I couldnt figure out how to trigger it until now! so if i disable either the movies or television tabs the apps list breaks, pressing down on the dpad to try and select an app makes apps list reload, this also makes the profile and settings tab unselectable.
App Menu inaccessible
After upgrading to Beta Release v1.0.192 on my NVIDIA Shield, I can no longer choose any app from the App Menu. Pressing down on my remote just makes the app icons jiggle, but none can be selected. I also cannot access anything to the right of that menu button. I am on a Nvidia Shield (2019) running Android 11.
Feature Request
Good evening, I recently installed the Dispatch app, and I would really appreciate it if you could add these two features—then the app would be perfect for me. 1 - Translate the app into French. 2 - Add a feature that lets movies, TV shows, and anime scroll automatically on the home screen (I’ve attached a link to show you what I mean). I’d be thrilled to have these two features. Thank you very much, Dev.
User Switching Broken in Latest Beta Version
Hello, I have been using the latest beta version for the past two days, and since then I have been unable to switch users. I set up two users in Dispatch. One is the default user, and the second user is protected with a PIN/password. However, when I try to enter the PIN for the second user in the latest beta version, as soon as the numeric keypad appears, I immediately receive an "Access Denied" message before I can enter more than one digit, and I am taken back to the home screen. I have already cleared the cache and, on the third attempt, even completely reinstalled the app, but the issue still persists.
Various bugs on beta 1.0191
Hi i just want to flag a few issues I’ve been receiving on version build 159 - beta (V1.0191) Unable to use the experimental player for multiple profiles, it says playback error: source error every time. Unable to delete a user profile, it freezes on the confirmation screen and unable to select confirm or cancel. Refresh all media for this server - Visually it doesn’t seem that the button does anything when clicking on it. there is no confirmation if its actually refreshing or not. Netflix Peek isn’t sowing any peek items for me its just blank while other peek views do show content row. Feature suggestion - Would be helpful to sync settings with multiple dispatch instances. My family had fun creating the avatars on one device and a little bit painful to set them up on my other two streaming devices. Would be great to sync instead of tweaking the settings on each device to match the same settings and user permissions (e.g. Kids profile and settings). Thanks for creating the app and support
removal of the app button
first off, the new ui looks very nice! but i have a bit of a complaint with it, the old ui had a button all the way to the left to just open the app and it seems that was removed? itd be very nice if that was brought back, sometimes i dont wanna watch what shows up in the channel feed and choose to jsut go to the app proper. this change makes me have togo to the apps tab or pin it to the top bar which feels redundent when there could just be a button in the channel list itself
Playback initiated from Dispatch Home isn't visible in Plex
Starting playback from the Dispatch Home isn’t showing up as an active session in Plex and results in the content remaining unwatched after completion. I also have the Default Play Action set to “Go to info page” but it doesn’t seem to be working from the Dispatch Home. I’m running the v1.0.19 beta version.
unable to update to the current beta
on a google streamer 4k, I’ve noticed I’m not being served the latest beta, is there any known reason to why I wouldn’t be? My current version is 1.0.182 with the current beta being 1.0.19 (i am in the beta program and have gotten betas before)
Persistent settings/ profile avatars, etc across devices
Would be good to be able to sync some profile settings across devicess
pokeapi.co dns requests
why is dispatch calling out to pokeapi.co ? super weird, blocking it in my pihole but can’t understand why its even doing it in the first place
