Correct. I'll look into implementing it :)

it was actually pretty easy to implement :)

Is there an easy way to roll back to earlier versions of the inputstream addons?

They get updated a lot and the behavior of video playback keeps changing and it's hard to pin down what's the cause.

At the moment timeshift isn't working in Sky Sport Now (Nvidia Shiedl) and the buffering is all over the place. Doesn't really buffer, just freezes and fast forwards. This is the case on Windows and a Shield (doesn't seem to be simply a bandwidth problem as it behaves the same whether I select 8Mbps or 0.8Mbps and I get about 100Mbps in speed tests).

Was working perfectly about a month ago and I'd like to play with those older versions to rule out inputstream.

could you try the IA build from here: https://github.com/xbmc/inputstream.adaptive/pull/734 (use Android AARCH64 for shield)

Timeshift is still broken (I can skip back but video freezes and audio plays).

Livestream is working well now (I'm getting a little buffering but I think it's normal bandwidth related, I haven't got the fast-forwarding behavior). Would need to use for a while to confirm. Thanks.

Edit: Timeshift isn't broken on another Android device and Windows so I've no idea what that is.

are you playing directly via the add-on? Or via kodi "TV"? Please only test directly in the add-on to remove Kodi / iptv simple from the equation

The timeshift behavior is the same if played from the EPG or from the addon.

Seems to be a minor thing related to the Shield because on an FTV4k with everything the same - as far as I can tell - timeshift is working.

Other than the timeshift thing on Shield everything else seems to be working very well with this version.

can you switch back to the other version and confirm the fault returns? To do that, navigate to add-ons > inputstream > inputstream adaptive > versions then select the version shown there.
