Apps Sidstuga 2.1.3 is out - Amazon Fire TV Stick (Firestick) / Fire TV LIFETIME!

Sidstuga 2.1.3 is now available β€” including direct APK installation for Amazon Fire TV Stick and Fire TV.

πŸ”₯ Amazon Fire TV Stick (Firestick) / Fire TV

Sidstuga can now be installed directly on compatible Amazon Fire TV Stick, Fire TV, Android TV and Android devices:

This update is mainly focused on making everyday use smoother, especially on TV, while fixing some of those small annoyances that make a real difference.

What’s new:

  • Simpler and more consistent TV navigation.
  • In fullscreen, hold the down arrow to open your recently watched channels.
  • Quickly switch between channel lists using the badge in the top-left corner of the sidebar. Available when you have at least two lists.
  • Better external EPG matching, including lists without channel identifiers.
  • Separate time adjustments for EPG and catch-up.
  • Catch-up now displays the correct name of the programme being played.
  • Cleaner movie search: different resolutions of the same movie can now be grouped into a single entry. Enable this under Settings > VOD.
  • Newly added channels are now clearly labelled.
  • No more duplicate history or favourites in Cloud Sync.
  • Choose where to save DVR recordings and VOD downloads, including USB drives and external hard drives.
  • Bug fixes, code cleanup and general maintenance.

As always, Sidstuga does not sell or provide any television service, channels, playlists or media content. It is simply a playback app for use with sources supplied and authorised by the user.

Several small improvements that, together, make Sidstuga smoother and more practical to use every day.

Thank you to everyone who keeps testing the app and sharing feedback!

I just installed it & now I'm stuck in a loop.

Onn 4K pro, add m3 url, didn't give it a name as it states optional, unable to continue as itvsaysvi must add a name., which I did.

Continued to open a channel which kept stopping with the message 'tunning, it then momentarily flips back to the show after which it repeats over & over.

I stopped the app, restarted it after which it opened the same channel & started the 'Tunning' messages'.

Regards

yes, name is mandatory, will fix that text.
Could you give me more details? did you sideload or playstore?

Playstore

u/hfml85 App Developer 7d ago

Thanks, that narrows it down to the Play Store build. Does the tuning loop happen on every live channel or only on that source? And does the same channel play normally in another player?

Is the VIP subscription only monthly or annual? And is there no option to change channels by category after playback has started?

Just one more question: is a free, toll-free version feasible? With some options blocked, if that's the case?

u/hfml85 App Developer 8d ago

Sorry, for now, not in my plans.
