It seems to be having trouble with DTS. Has anyone else encountered this? I get no sound on my rip of the Dawn of the Planet of the Apes BD.Also, some videos donât let me use an external player for some reason.
I have some content with DTS-DH to check the issue with DTS.
Can you give me a link do download exactly your rip so I can check?
Apparently it was DTS-HD after all, sorry about that.
One request: Can you make it display black bars for superwide or letterboxed HDR content? On my Sony A1, the bars are pitch black when viewing SDR stuff, but a terribly distracting gray when viewing HDR video. This issue does not occur with the built-in player, Netflix, or well as when using Kodi, so it must be fixable somehow. The only other app which does this is the official Plex one.

Can you give a picture how it looks?
I tried to play HDR Sony Demo (3840 x 2160) and there was no any problemâŚ
That´s cause your Demo is âFullscreenâ and got no Black Bars. Most Movies are 21:9 and then you got black Bars on a 16:9 TV above and beneath the actual Movie.
By the Way. Is it possible to show some Infos when you open the âMenuâ while playing a movie? On the Top left Corner for Example the Movie/Series Name, Season, Episode Name?
And is it possible to directly skip 10/15/30 (what ever) seconds with the left/right button on the Remote?

Thatâs why I every time ask for pictures, content or something else⌠Itâs better once to see, than hundred times to hear
But anyway I have no grey barsâŚ

Sure.

Possible but need to think. Because D-PAD is used for navigation between elements fistâŚ
Yea i got normal black bars too on my OLED with your app, no Problem there.

No problem, i do not know anything about that, i only know that this works on other apps too, but yea⌠I dont know âhowâ

But it could be the same yes.

Love that related movies are now included⌠any thoughts on something similar for movie collections?
Crashes have all stopped for me, long back press is a big plus and has stopped me exiting accidentally. Playback of SD and hd continues to be flawless on my side which is the BIG plus compared to jerky and stuttering official android app.
Yea, the improvements are very good :).
But the Navigation (for Example in the Movie Section) is still a bit jerky, takes forever to get to the âEndâ Movies, cause i cant use all the Alphabet Buttons :D.
But yea⌠Just the HDR and HD Sound Passthroughs and then it should be really fine 
Just noticed a couple of weird little things:
Home -> Recently added -> season of a tv show -> Press the right button top right to go to the next season -> Instead of going say s4 to s5, it goes to first season available, ie s4 to s1
I have a few random x files episodes recorded from season 4⌠1, 4, 7 and 20. However, in the series page for season 4, they are listed as episodes 1, 2, 3 and 4, so just concurrent numbers and not the actual episode numbers
Forgot. Clicking the option for filtering in main movies section, doesnât do anything. Sorting button works, filtering doesnât do anything

Hey,
Decided to give this a try, looking for better UI and fixing the 4k hdr grey bar issues on the sony bravia, but unfortunately the app doesnât launch properly. Its stuck saying XPLAY and spinningâŚ
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

I had a similar issue on my Sony. Off and on via remote did nothing, I had to turn the tv off at the mains to get the app and android to restart properly. It happened to me after I turned up the poster percentage quality if I remember rightly.
Iâm a hufe fan of Xplay for WebOS already and using it often on my LG TV.
I just realized that there is also an version for Android TV now. I just downloaded the apk from your post from March 23 (0312.03) and installed it ony my Nvidia Shield. After Starting it just loads the Xplay Start screen with the Xplay Logo and then stucks with a spinning circle.
