Remote behavior
Use the D-pad to move through featured rows and the poster grid. OK opens the focused title or detail path. Hold OK adds or removes a title from Watchlist. LEFT at the first item/column opens Categories. Hold MENU opens Context Actions.
Movie and episode playback use the same production player as Live TV. Browsing Movies and Shows does not create a second playback engine.
Does IPTuner remember Movies and Shows I have started?
Yes. Supported VOD sections include Continue Watching and playback progress/resume tracking.
How do I add a Movie or Show to Watchlist?
Hold OK on a supported focused Movie or Show to add or remove it from Watchlist.
Does IPTuner support Shows with seasons and episodes?
Yes. Supported provider Shows include show details, seasons, episodes, progress/resume, and direct episode playback.
What can Unified Search find?
Unified Search can cover local EPG/programme data plus Movies and Shows in the local catalogue. Search scope options include TV, Movies, Shows, and All Media where available.
Can I use the Fire OS/system keyboard instead of IPTuner’s keyboard?
Yes. Settings > General > On-screen keyboard lets you choose between the TV-focused App Keyboard and the Fire OS/system keyboard.
Is TMDB required to use IPTuner?
No. TMDB is optional metadata enrichment. When configured, it can provide richer posters, cast/profile metadata, trailer/preview metadata, and supplemental recommendation titles.
What does IPTuner send to TMDB?
When enrichment is explicitly requested from an opened Movie/Show detail page, IPTuner can send an existing TMDB media ID or a title plus release year. It does not send IPTV provider URLs, playlist/server credentials, stream URLs, playback positions, or the full viewing history to TMDB.
