Stremio integration

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.

Rotating Wallpapers On Home Screen

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.

Quality / Version Selection + Default Quality

Present users with a quality / version selector when selecting a media Allows users to set a default / preferred quality When multi-server support is added, this "version" selector should support versions across servers as well.

Nvidia shield notifications

Please add the ability to see notifications from the NVIDIA Shield such as low battery for remote notifications, internet not connected notifications etc.

Live TV (IPTV) Support

Please add a “Live TV” tab to the home settings. Integrate support for any IPTV service using M3U, M3U8 & Xtream Playlists as well as EPG (TiviMate preferred). This will serve as the ultimate launcher.

Now Playing Support

Add support for Now Playing notifications as well as the ability to open whichever app is currently playing media.

Plezzy integration

Hello, I switched to Plezzy recently due to Plex layout being a bit rough, it would be awesome if I could press watch movie and it knew to use that app instead. Thanks!

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.

NostalgiaTV Integration

If possible, please integrate nostalgiaTV (android app)

Kodi smartlists + custom channels compatibility

Seems that icons for this isn't implemented yet? Can't get both sideload app custom made channels, and Kodi's smartlist channels to show art/icons.

Jellyfin Integration

Duplicate items showing across 1080p & 4K libraries

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?

make an activity for the quick settings

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

Multiple Profiles + Profile Switching

Add Multi-Server Support

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

Translate Dispatch into other languages (via a collaborative system)

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)

Watch indicators

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

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

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!"

Beta version Expired

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"

Sideloaded apps

Please incorporate the ability to pin sideloaded apps. Thanks

App Images Disapearing

Despite apps icons and banners being loaded correctly during setup, they appear to have been cleared at some point and now no longer show https://preview.redd.it/dispatch-launcher-a-plex-focused-interface-launcher-for-v0-q5myffv3cbkd1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=fcf35155f52731ab2b0ae19433fcb8c5ff83a459

Chromecast with google TV microphone search not working

Once you search a movie with voice, you can see it briefly load and then go back to home screen

Trending Movies/TV Are Sorted Alphabetically

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.

Hung Settings Interface (Google TV)

Settings > WiFi / Bluetooth Then 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.

Auto-Start not persisting

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.

Pressing the settings button on physical remote opens the stock quick settings menu for half a second, then it disappears.

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.
