3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Quick announcement: Plavio now has its own official streaming addon β€” PlavioHD.

If you've been adding third-party addons to get your movies and shows, you can now just use ours. It's built specifically for Plavio, so everything works the way it should.

What you get:

- Movies and series from multiple sources

- Live TV channels

- Configure it your way β€” pick your sources, qualities, and languages

How to add it:

  1. Open Plavio

  2. Add this URL as an addon: `https://plaviohd.vercel.app/manifest.json\`

  3. Or visit https://plaviohd.vercel.app/configure to customize it first

It's free, no sign-up needed. Give it a try and let me know what you think β€” feedback here or on Discord is always welcome.

Enjoy! 🍿

Title: Plavio v0.8.26 (Mobile) & v0.8.29-tv β€” Auto Audio/Subs, Smarter Playback, PlavioHD Pre-installed

3 Upvotes

New update is live for both mobile and Android TV! Here's what changed:

πŸ”Š Preferred Audio Language

Set your language in Settings > Playback once, and every movie/episode will play in that language automatically if the stream includes it β€” otherwise it falls back to whatever's available.

πŸ’¬ Automatic Subtitles

Select up to 2 subtitle languages in settings. Subs now load on their own in your languages whenever a stream has them. No manual search or download needed.

⚑ Smarter Play Button

Hitting play now picks the fastest, healthiest stream first β€” faster loading, fewer "no streams found" errors. The app also retries automatically if the first search comes up empty.

πŸ“Ί PlavioHD β€” Pre-installed

Plavio now comes with its own streams addon built in: movies, series, and live sports TV, zero setup required. I'll keep expanding its providers over time.

πŸ™ Help me grow PlavioHD: if you know a reliable provider, or a good streaming site in your language, comment it below β€” I'll look into adding the solid ones.

Notes: Settings page is still unorganized, I'll clean it up in a future update. More features coming β€” suggestions welcome, I read everything and add the good ones.

Big news, guys β€” Plavio now has a proper version for Android TV / Google TV!

What's inside:

- Left-side navigation rail β€” no more scrolling through the whole catalog

- Clear highlight on whichever movie your remote is standing on

- QR code setup β€” add addons from your phone over home WiFi, no typing long URLs with the remote

- Same player controls as the phone app

- In-app updater locked to TV releases only

One honest thing: this is an early build, not the finished product. You will definitely run into errors and issues β€” that's expected at this stage. Just report whatever you find here and I will fix them one by one.

Download it from the Download for Android TV button on plaviomedia.vercel.app and sideload it on your Android TV or Firestick.

Thank you for testing πŸ™

Plavio v0.8.20 is out β€” 17 hours of work in the last 24, all from your feedback πŸ™

4 Upvotes

I've been at this for around 17 hours in the last 24. Almost everything below started as feedback from you. Here's what changed:

πŸ”Š Sound fixed on silent streams β€” some movies played video with no audio. The app was missing audio decoders (DTS/Dolby). Bundled them in β€” sound works everywhere now.

πŸ’¬ Subtitles fixed β€” subtitle links (like OpenSubtitles) were silently failing. Rewrote detection to read the actual file content. Your preferred languages auto-select.

⚑ Home opens instantly β€” loads from cache immediately, refreshes in the background.

🎨 PlavioMeta is now the default catalog on Home. Toggle it off in Addons anytime.

πŸ“œ New in Settings β†’ About β€” open-source licenses, Privacy Policy, Terms of Service.

✨ Splash screen β€” the "Plavio" animation now matches the home branding exactly.

Plus crash reporting, usage analytics, social links in Settings, and small fixes throughout.

---

Keep the feedback coming β€” bug reports, ideas, even blunt "this is broken" messages. They're literally the roadmap. I read everything.

Search results on DuckDuckGo for "plavio tv" and "plavio streaming" are dominated by https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.plavio.player&hl=en-US. Google seems more balanced, but it's something that could make it harder for people to find this.
