v2023.09.25.0312

• Fixed: Up Next was not launching with Shortcuts

v2023.09.26.0222

• NEW: Added the ability to manage the clients listed as options for Siri Shortcuts. Visit Settings > Support > Remove Clients for Shortcuts to choose which clients you would like to remove.
• IMPROVED: Everything about how sections or shows are displayed via the API or Siri Actions has been rewritten to provide a better experience and allow for more sections.

These changes allow for more sections to work with these tools. Previously, launching sections on your Apple TV from a Siri Shortcut was limited to sections that were currently in the navigation. Same goes for Start Up sections. Same for the API commands. These changes now allow you to launch any section at any time with any of these tools, and they present a little better too.

This effects a LOT in the app.

• Launching things via Shortcuts (locally and on remote clients)
• Launching things via Channels API
• Remote Shortcuts
• Start Up settings

Please give this a big run and post any issues you run into in Community.
