v0.20.1
v0.20.0
[0.20.0] - 2024-02-21
Added
- Support for casting from the YouTube app (also known as Lounge API, or LeanBack)
- Connect to Playlet from the YouTube mobile app or from certain browsers (such as Chrome)
- Connect to Playlet from local network, or through the TV code.
- On the cast dialog in your YouTube mobile app, you might see two listings for the same device. E.g.
Roku TV
andPlaylet on Roku TV
. Use thePlaylet on
one to cast to Playlet, and the other one to cast to the regular YouTube TV app. - The functionality is still experiemntal, and has some limitations. To name a few:
- The queue does not perfectly sync between the mobile app and Playlet, espeically if it gets modified by the web app or in Playlet.
- Many functions (such as d-pad controls or setting the volume) are not working due to OS limitations
- Many functions (such as changing the subtitle settings) are not currently implemented
- ATTENTION: This feature is not very privacy friendly. When connected to a lounge, all network traffic (videos played, queued, etc) go through YouTube servers. For this reason, certain measures are taken:
- While Playlet broadcasts its casting capabilities to the local network, it does not connect to a lounge for the first time until:
- A device connects to Playlet (using DIAL/Connect using Wi-Fi)
- A
Link with TV code
is generated, by visiting theRemote
->Link with TV code
tab.
- Playlet disconnects from previous lounge sessions on start, and joins a new one instead of one continous session. In other words, restarting Playlet will disconnect your second device. This is a feature, not a bug.
- Playlet does not expose device details, and uses a randomly generated id on each start, instead of consistent device id.
- While Playlet broadcasts its casting capabilities to the local network, it does not connect to a lounge for the first time until:
Changed
- The queue no longer contains playlists. When a playlist is added to the queue, the entire playlist is loaded.
- It can take a few seconds to load large playlist before it can be added to the queue
- This is done to be more compatible more the lounge, which does not contain "Playlists in the queue" concept.
- The
Web App
tab is now calledRemote
. It can be used to open the web app, or connect using Lounge (cast from YouTube) - Removed
