fission 0.1.3

0.1.3 — playback setup that survives shared add-on origins, Collections that remember your place, and animated artwork

This update fixes a playback setup crash that could hit an installation whose add-ons share one network origin, makes Collection rows return you to exactly the card you left, and adds focus-driven animated artwork to Collection tiles. It is still early software — behaviour changes between builds, and a build can break.

Install

1. Install Downloader by AFTVnews from the Google Play store on your Android TV.
2. Open Downloader and enter the permanent fission code 7197071; it opens https://infusionplayer.stream/download/.
3. Choose 0.1.3, download infusion-tv-0.1.3-103.apk, and let Downloader install it.

The full procedure, including the adb path, is in the releases repository README. If you already run 0.1.2, install this build over it — your profiles, add-ons, watch history and Home layout are kept.

What's new

• Collection tiles can animate. On a Collections page the focused tile's artwork can now be a short animation instead of a still image, including the tiles in the Streaming Services collection. The animation is drawn at the size of the card it belongs to, cropped to keep the artwork's aspect ratio, stops when the tile loses focus or leaves the screen, and its download is bounded so it cannot run away with memory or bandwidth.

Fixes

• Playback no longer fails to set up when several add-ons share one network origin. Two installed add-ons served from the same host used to collide over ownership of that exact origin, and the affected title could not be played. Each add-on now keeps its own attempt and its own failure handling, so one add-on's problem still cannot take the others down with it.
• A Collection row returns you to the exact card you left. After opening a title's Details from deep in a row and pressing BACK, the row comes back with the same card focused and the same horizontal position — no jump back to the start of the row.
• Moving between Collection rows remembers each row. Navigating vertically from one row to the next returns to the card you were last on in that row, instead of the first card.

Known issues

• Some Peacock artwork looks soft. Those Collection tiles animate, but the artwork Peacock supplies is low resolution, so it looks less sharp than the rest. That is the source artwork, not a playback problem in the app.
• Sideload only. There is no store listing; new builds appear on the Releases page.
• Android TV only. There is no mobile installer; do not install the TV build on a phone.
• If you are not offered this update inside the app, download it from the Releases page instead.
• Focus, playback and presentation are qualified on the NVIDIA Shield and a Sony BRAVIA; other Android TV devices are untested.
• Installing over a test build signed with a different certificate is refused by Android (INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE); uninstall the old build first.
• Playback depends on the source you configure — your Jellyfin server or the add-ons you install. This build does not make every stream or provider play without interruption, and a provider that changes or withholds a stream can still fail to play.
• This is an alpha: behaviour can change between builds and some surfaces are still being polished.

Download both infusion-tv-0.1.3-103.apk and SHA256SUMS from the Assets list. sha256sum infusion-tv-0.1.3-103.apk must print the first value, and sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS must print OK. apksigner verify --print-certs infusion-tv-0.1.3-103.apk must print the second. The two values identify different things — the file's bytes, and who signed it — and neither proves the other.
