Stremio Tech Update #35 – LG TV Fixes and Stremio Web Updated

Posted on January 6, 2025 by Alex

Today we updated the LG TV app and Stremio Web.

After the LG TV app update from the 2nd of January, users that have 2020 LG TV models mentioned that they get a connection error when they open the app, others mentioned that they need to log in again every time after they exit the app.

Today we released an emergency update to the LG TV UI (v1.6.2) which we believe should fix these issues. (5 users with 2020 models already confirmed that it works for them)

We also updated Stremio Web (which is also the UI for Stremio 5 for Windows), here’s what changed:

  • Add side drawer to player for info and episodes
  • Move player audio tracks to their own menu
  • Improve player audio tracks labels
  • Addon actions are now single click
  • Dropdown now auto scrolls to selected season on the details page
  • Hide empty catalogs on board
  • Improved PWA style
  • Fix external subtitles offset issue for the new shell

Stay tuned as we have more surprises for our users!

    Please make the focus color accessibility on the buttons for the LG app. The current focus state is
    almost totally transparent and I can’t tell what is being highlighted.

      +1. There is not enough contrast on focused buttons (especially playback controls in the player). Otherwise, thanks a bunch for doing this!

    Update looks good but I’m still on 4 cause 5 doesn’t allow to turn off hardware decoding

    Please fix, on Tizen, the fractional playback speeds. It works just at 1x and 2x.
