As sometimes i go crazy coding always the same thing, this night i started another project lol, this months 4 apps are enough. I promise in August i go on holidays for some days hahaha.

This is the time for a TV!

I saw that many paid TV apps earn much but they disappear after some weeks, as the coders don't update the streaming links.

So i will do a server side list where to update all in a easy way, and to avoid the update of the app.

Features:
- Free to download
- Server side channel list
- Possibility to notify a not working channel
- In app purchase CHAT
- In app purchase FULL SCREEN + HIDE ADV
- Auto fade out after 5 seconds of the button

Long life to Steve!

Ok let's publish some screenshot of the tonight work

The server side with channel list is ready, so i don't need to update the app directly, but i will do all by the server side.
It was hard, but, i found about 800 channels in m3u8.





Stay tuned!

Long life to Steve!

Now working on the button disabling the MPMoviePlayerController controls.
So i can leave the space to see the advertising and the app can be free.

I will add also the possibility to buy the full screen feature and others for 0.89$
Maybe i will add also a way to record the movie

xGEKKOx I never realised you were in Italy, Montalbano no?

I guess You are using Tier 2 right? how did you embed a video streamer?

Yes i'm italian, from Naples.
Yes i use Tier 2, and the video streamer is done using AVFoundation from Apple.
I coded it manually to add the IAP for the full screen and hide advertise.
Usually TV apps got always on top, but they go down when the URL of channels change.

I hope mine will be the top 1 app for tv, as i update it from the server side, and it is free.
I wanna do this experiment to see if i can enter in the TV app world.

I wish you every success! And will try to remember to download it next year when I finally invest in Apple Development

Apple doesn't accept TV stream app anymore.
They rejected this app 2 times, and they ask me the documentation of rights of 3rd part.

Bha, so i start to think that Apple will not accept also radio streaming anymore???
Hmm Apple....

They just want to avoid a law suit, very understandable... the companies you are streaming from will just go and sue Apple, and not bother with you...

I did say speak to RAI

Eheheh, i'm unlucky as other apps was accepted.
It really depends on what the reviewer think.
I hope at least the iOS version would be accepted.

I've changed it with an edit box where to paste a url, but if you write in the edit box a "magic" word, you got the real channel list
I hope they will accept it, and i will give the magic word to all my friends
