Main Roadmap

This will make your launcher very popular!Stremio is an amazing streaming app for movies, series (and even live tv channels depending on addons installed)It is so simple, literally everyone can use it. A plug n play of kodi or similar apps. Streaming from many different sources, no need to set up a media server, which saves people space and money, and can be streamed from anywhere as long as you bring your compatible device with you.

I’m not sure if this is possible, but it would be cool to maybe set a folder where we store a few wallpapers and Dispatch rotates them maybe every “X” amount of time, or picks a random wallpaper every boot up.

Kodi smartlists + custom channels compatibility

basical

Google TV, Hisense U7 series, my volume buttons on the remote stopped working correctly. Earlier today they were working as expected, but tonight I can no longer hold the volume up or down, I have to press the buttons multiple times to change it. I uninstalled dispatch and they started working again, I will reinstall tomorrow and see if it is still happening.

My most recently added episode is a finale so it completes a season.

New Television not showing a completed season

Richard Ricks

My app peek isn't working specifically for Plex only. It just sits on trying to load and does nothing. This is on a Google streamer device. Same device in another room does not do this and loads perfect. Because of this I also realized the refresh all media button isn't doing anything. I tried using it in case it may help app peek but realized it doesn't even refresh my media as nothing new loaded.

Jellyfin Integration

Like a lot of people, I have seperate 1080p, 4k HDR and DoVi libraries, all containing the same films/TV shows.My libraries are easily distinguisable when multiple items appear on the 'continue watching' list because they have cover art or overlays with the resolution/format on the cover art.Because Dispatch pulls library images from TMDB rather than libraries, these distinguishing covers are lost, and I end up with multiple images of the same item on the front page which looks a bit daft. Is there a way to overcome this?

Duplicate items showing across 1080p & 4K libraries

Byertsy

that way i can map the quick settings to the settings button on my remote with something like tvquickactions

make an activity for the quick settings

Scratchki

Multiple Profiles + Profile Switching

1) Add support for connecting multiple plex (or jellyfin or emby, etc) servers.2) Merge duplicate items (likely tracked by tmdb_id) and show a server picker upon selection

Add Multi-Server Support

All languages to be added as well as any potential person who wants to participate in the translation, please comment to add a language (whoever comments participates in the language request) I will edit the post.• French (me)• Swedish (@Earl)• Hungarian (@Bilbo Zsákos)

Translate Dispatch into other languages (via a collaborative system)

Like on Plex a way to indicate if something is watched or not

I can't seem to find or enable the screensaver/Ambient Mode. With a stock Google Chromecast, you just hit back while on the homescreen and it goes into screensaver mode.This is an absolutely necessary feature for my family, we have Google Photos cycling in Ambient mode, and I can't live without my photos of kids, pets and food.UPDATE: I left the TV on while on the home screen of the Dispatch Launcher, and it eventually went into Ambient Mode, hooray! So it does work, I just can't trigger it manually. If I could trigger it manually, the only thing I have to say is "shut up and take my money!"

Activate screensaver by pressing "back" while on the home tab

Purchased a life time license little over a weak ago no issues until this evening. App is telling me to update to the latest Beta version when its already on the latest version there doesn't appear to be any updates available and only gives me an option to quit which it then reopens itself to the same message " Please update to the latest beta in order to continue testing"

The trending shelves/rows should sort by popularity rather than alphabetically, otherwise they'll rarely change from day to day and the launcher could look to be a bit stagnant. At the moment I have 5 or 6 Alien movies all on my homepage trending section.

Trending Movies/TV Are Sorted Alphabetically

Settings &gt; WiFi / BluetoothThen use the back arrow in the Chromecast/Google TV remote instead of the button (that I noticed after pressing back).This leaves you back in Dispatch settings with nothing selected and the remote no longer has any effect.A force close is needed to regain control as the remember navigation is enabled, meaning it just returns to the same inactive settings view on reload.

Google TV (TCL). Initial setup is successful, and home button works to bring you back to Dispatch launcher. After shutdown overnight, dispatch doesn't start automatically. Accessibility service must be restarted / re-enabled before it works again.

Auto-Start not persisting

Daniel Lehman

Hisense U8N, using the settings "cog" button on the remote. I would assume that the preferred action is that the Dispatch quick settings menu should open instead.
