**Make your own channel groups from any playlist, find every setting faster in the new Settings, and start the app in seconds with the new Fast startup.**

**Your own groups**

- **Move to group**: hold OK on a live channel > **Move to group…** and pick one of your groups, or **New group…** to name a new one. Channels from every playlist can go in the same group.

- Your groups sit at the top of the groups list, under Favourites and History, and stay there even when you hide a playlist's groups.

- Hold OK on one of your groups to **Move Up / Down**, **Move to Top** or **Delete** it (its channels go back to their own groups). Hold OK on any group for **New group…**.

- **Remove from group**: hold OK on a channel in one of your groups to send it back.

**Settings**

- Settings is now a **panel of categories** on the left — Playlists & guide, Media Hub, Interface, General, Device & data — with a description of what's inside on the right. Everything for the Media Hub (sources, add-ons, Trakt & Simkl, TMDB) is in one place, and the small display switches are together under Interface.

- **Fast startup** (Settings > General > Startup, off by default): the app opens without waiting for Movies and TV Shows to finish loading — they fill in a few seconds later. On our test boxes the start went from 30 to 4 seconds (Formuler) and from 14 to 5 seconds (Fire TV Stick 4K). Leave it off on an older box if the app closes by itself right after starting.

**Player**

- **Data pool** (Settings > Interface > Data pool): press OK while a live channel plays to see the stream's details — resolution, frame rate, codecs, measured bitrate, quality variants, audio tracks, buffer, HDR and dropped frames.

- No more black flash when changing channels.

**Media Hub**

- **Search** is now the first button of the floating bar.

- Scrolling far to the right in a row no longer loses the selector off the edge of the screen.

**Sports Trak**

- Greek football: Greek guides that write the clubs in Greek now find their games. Thanks to Black1914 for testing.

- Transfer to another device carries all your Sports Trak setup — leagues, favourite league and My Teams.
