[RELEASE] Stream Link Manager for Channels

When using SLM to add movies would it be possible to add an option to add all movies from a collection at once or maybe to select multiple movies at once,at the moment say you want to add the Harry Potter movies you do the following:

Select Add Program

Type Harry Potter

Click search

Select the first Movie

Click Get

then

Type Harry Potter

Click search

Select the 2nd movie

Click get

And repeat,repeat,repeat

When we search for titles could we not have a tick box next to each movie so we can bulk select several titles at once?

This would be... difficult... from a technical perspective based on how SLM works, but I don't think impossible. I've added it as a request, but as a backburner item for now since it will require a fairly substantial rewrite of some functionality.

I'm also preparing a large release for next week, so won't be taking a look for a little while yet.

Oddly enough when using Channels and stream link manager on iPad the iPlayer links work, on Apple TV they don’t.

v2024.10.29.1540 has been released as stable. Here are some highlights:


NEW: Ability to filter out already bookmarked programs from search results, including setting for default choice

You can now by default and override during search have the ability to hide anything you've already bookmarked from search and new & updated results:

This option is off by default, so you must update in Settings


NEW: 'Bookmark Action' function for specific activities related to bookmarked programs.

Notably, this includes:

  • NEW: 'Bookmark Action' function for specific activities related to bookmarked programs.
  • NEW: 'Disable Get New Episodes' in 'Bookmark Action' makes it so a show no longer searches for new episodes during related processes
  • NEW: 'Hide' in 'Bookmark Action' removes all bookmarks status records (i.e., episodes, movie stream link) and hides the bookmarked program from lists and related activities
  • NEW: Changing 'Bookmark Action' from 'Hide' to a valid value will rebuild bookmark statuses (i.e., episode, movie watched status)


NEW: Ability to 'hide' a program during search so that it does not appear again (filtered out), unless edited to allow

To go along with this, there is additionally:

  • MODIFIED: 'Modify Programs' area does not list 'hidden' bookmarks, but has a button to show/edit if desired
  • MODIFIED: Can now edit bookmark items (i.e., 'Title', 'Release Year', 'Bookmark Action') when adding a program, the same as when modifying

MODIFIED: Made 'Save' and 'Cancel' buttons floating over episodes in 'Add Programs' and 'Modify Programs'

The Save, Cancel, etc... buttons are now floating!


MODIFIED: 'Files' area has been redesigned for selecting files from a dropdown

Files area is now flexible and much better looking:


General bug fixes and quality of life improvements
  • FIXED: Modal box (Please wait while processing...) was malformed on Add Programs and Run Processes, and did not exist on 'Modify Programs'

  • MODIFIED: Stream Link Mappings function to ensure save and add can only happen when they are supposed to, handle for no mappings remaining after delete

  • MODIFIED: Minor adjustment for finding country during 'Initialization' process

  • MODIFIED: References for 'End-to-End' Process now specifically include 'Stream Links/Files' in order to not confuse with any other current or future processes

  • MODIFIED: Scheduler processes in order to run multiple activities at the same time

  • MODIFIED: Made update rows function more generic

  • FIXED: Rare issue for 'New & Updated' programs where the offer icon was missing, resulting in a crash

  • NEW: Added ability to decompress '.gz' files

  • UPDATED: Home page, header, and other areas to reflect expanded functionality beyond Stream Links, including temporary SLM logo

  • PREP: Upcoming rebrand


I think that's about it... Oh, wait, I almost forgot one other small thing!
