Dizquetv

Currently 1.1.x versions are considered cutting edge or beta versions. The feature that's being tested is Filler Lists. If you are looking for a stable version, check the [Versions](https://github.com/vexorian/dizquetv/wiki/Versions) page at the wiki.

Improvements

- "Filler lists" are collections of clips to play during Flex times. When setting up a channel's Flex time, you can attach Filler Lists to the channel and determine things like how frequently or probable a video from the list is going to be picked.
- Multiple channels can share the same Filler list.
- A channel can have multiple Filler Lists.
- Updating the contents of a Filler List, changes the Flex behavior in all of its associated channels.
- When you run 1.1.0 using a .dizquetv folder from an old version, the old Filler clips associated to each channel will be moved to separate Filler Lists with the channel's name.

Minor
- TV Guide is now the first tab of the page.
- Flex list uses virtual scrolling. Similar to the virtual scroll change we recently had to the channel editor, it should have less lag and the duration bars had to be changed to be horizontal instead of vertical.
- Also tweaked the Flex random algorithm a bit. It's hard to explain
- Limited cooldown option to 24 hours, because higher than 24 hours meant that the video would never play, due to implementation quirks.

Note about a Plex DVR bug

There's currently a bug in Plex DVR that makes it repeat videos instead of advancing to the next episode. Please read this Plex bug report for more info: https://forums.plex.tv/t/live-tv-restarts-show-after-completion-in-web-player/634004

Currently 1.0.x versions are considered stable versions. This means that they will receive bug fixes or really minor features but they won't receive big feature changes. If you are looking for a cutting edge version, check the [Versions](https://github.com/vexorian/dizquetv/wiki/Versions) page at the wiki.

Minor Improvements
- Now channel numbers from 0 to 9999 are allowed.
- m3u will now report the xmltv uri as url-tvg and x-tvg-url, this will speed up the configuration process in some iptv clients, notably tivimate supports it.
- Plex settings now specify that the bit rates are in Kbps.
- EPG settings have explanations for what cache and timer mean.
- Tweaked Default bitrates a bit.

Bug Fixes
- Fix Save Program button not doing anything at all.
- Fixed some issues that made error screen unable to appear and instead the whole stream crashed.
- Fix issue with channel editor silently failing to save a channel when it is very large.
-Channel tools will be disabled in situations where clicking them could make the number of programs exceed 50000. If the channel already had more than 50000 programs, the limit will be raised to its initial number of programs. This limit will eventually be configurable.
- Fix a case in which anamorphic videos still had issues when Plex transcodes audio but copies video.
- Fix null pointer when generating TV guide when rating is null.

Minor Fixes
- Tool Help fixes 126
- Fix 69 Infinite loop when you start playing a video near the end of the video in rare cases.

1.0.x versions starting with 1.0.1 are considered stable versions. Meaning that they will not receive new features, but they will receive new bug fixes until another stable branch replaces them for development.

Bug Fixes:

- Adding filler clips to a channel that already contains a lot of filler clips should be much faster than it used to be.
- Loading screen will only stream for 40 milliseconds instead of 1 second. Of course, if there truly is a delay or buffering for playing the first video, you will still see the loading screen for a longer time.
- Fix TV guide sending tons and tons of /status requests to the dizquetv backend, even after switching to another web view.
- Long (> 30m) blocks of consecutive short Flex periods will render as a big block with the channel name as opposed of getting merged with the previous show. Do remember that short (< 5m) videos are treated the same as Flex by the TV guide.

For native executable files look below:

1.0.0 is identical to 0.0.69, we are changing the way versioning works in this project.

- favicon for the web ui.
- New Channel Editor Tools: Replicate and Replicate+Smart Shuffle. They make the channel lineup repeat.
- Reddit icon to link to the sub-reddit.

Improvements:

- Channel Editor will now use virtual scroll for the programs. This should reduce lag when editing large channels and also means that akward horizontal bar is no longer needed to move around large channels. Instead all programs are accessible by scrolling down or up. This also means program durations are now represented by a horizontal bar instead of a vertical one.
- New channel tool: "Save/Restore TV show positions".

Minor:

- The tool buttons in the channel editor now have icons.
- Added a link to the discord server.
- Upgraded icons to font-awesome 5.
- It is now impossible to enable subtitles when Plex direct play is forced. Otherwise it would crash.


Bug Fixes:

- Fix issues with the error stream sometimes failing and exhausting the queue instead of playing.
- Fix 95 Redirects to Stealth channels not rendering correctly in TV guide.
- Fix 96 "Channel at night" using the redirect to pad time, instead of Flex time.
- Fix 103 Memory usage peaking when generating/updating the TV guide.
- Fix readme pointing to wrong unraid template repo.
