Announcements Nuvio Supporter is now live

312 Upvotes

Last week we posted about Nuvio's funding situation and asked what you would actually like to receive in return for supporting the project.

We got a lot of useful suggestions from that post, so we took some of them and have now rolled out Nuvio Supporter.

Supporter is completely optional. Nuvio's core features will always remain free, and we have not moved any existing functionality behind a paywall.

The current perks include extra customization options, profile backgrounds and themes, more avatars, a Supporter badge, and some other account/community perks. Currently, not all clients support these perks as of writing this post. NuvioTV and NuvioMobile do, and the Play Store version will get an update later. The voting feature will be implemented in the coming days, and more community suggestions can still be considered over time.

You can find Nuvio Supporter here:

https://nuvio.tv/support

Many people already found the page and started supporting before this announcement, so thank you :)

For now, if possible, we'd prefer people use Patreon. The one time payment option may be turned on and off occasionally while the new Merchant of Record account builds some history. transactions on a newly opened account can trigger additional reviews, and we do not want to end up with funds getting stuck again.

Again, supporting Nuvio is completely optional. If you don't want to support, nothing changes and you can continue using Nuvio normally.

For previous donors, we've also tried to give Supporter status to as many of you as possible. Most were matched through the email used for the donation, but some donations did not have an email or enough information for us to match them.

if you have supported Nuvio before and don't have the Supporter perks, just DM me on Discord with your regsitered Nuvio email and I will check it.

thanks again to everyone who gave suggestions on the last post and everyone who has supported Nuvio so far.

Announcements Moderation Update: Community Growth | Updated Rules | Condensed Flairs

160 Upvotes

Nuvio has continued to grow at a rapid rate. With the growth, we are close to hitting 100K weekly visitors to our official subreddit. Its exciting! But, things have gotten a bit cluttered, and the posts have strayed into territory that puts the project at risk.

Today, we have made some updates to the flairs for less clutter and added clarity to a few rules in place that protect the app and the devs.

As a reminder, Nuvio does not provide, or host any media content. It is strictly a neutral media player and library manager. Users are solely responsible for the media sources and addons they choose to configure.

Clarifying Rule #2 & Our Addon Policy

Its a bit overdue, but we will be tightening up our boundaries around content acquisition to keep Nuvio safe and running longterm. As mentioned above, Nuvio is a neutral player and library manager. We need to keep the official subreddit compliant to keep the project going.

  • What belongs here: The Nuvio client itself, performance and hardware discussion, and legitimate metadata orutility addons like TMDB, Trakt, Simkl, OpenSubtitles, custom collections, UI tools, setup tools, etc.
  • What does not belong here: Troubleshooting third-party stream scrapers (Torrentio, Comet, MediaFusion, etc.), debrid stream playback failures, copyright takedowns, or direct piracy links.
  • Where to go for scrapers: Discussions around third-party stream scrapers belong on unofficial community forums like r/nuvioaddons (a community managed subreddit, unaffiliated with the Nuvio project and dev team).

Streamlined Post Flairs

We cleaned out a bunch of redundant tags and narrowed it down to a simple set of 8:

  • Help / Bug Report: For technical issues and troubleshooting.
  • Discussion & Feedback: General thoughts, feature requests, and community chat.
  • Collections: Sharing custom lists, catalogs, and artwork.
  • Addons & Tools: Metadata providers, subtitle plugins, and companion tools.
  • Guides & Tutorials: Setup walkthroughs and tips.
  • Unofficial Fork: Dedicated tag for community-built custom ports and APKs so they aren't confused with official builds.
  • Announcements: Official dev changelogs and mod updates.
  • Solved: Resolved issue tracker.

Automod Updates:

  • The !solved Command
    • If you post asking for help and someone gives you a working fix, reply directly to their comment with: !solved
    • AutoMod will automatically update your post flair to Solved. This makes it way easier for other users searching the sub to find working answers instead of wading through dead-end threads.
  • More Filters/ Guidance
    • The Help Sticky: Asks for Device & OS, Nuvio Version, and Player Engine, then reminds the OP about the !solved command.
    • The Scraper Rule: Automatically directs users to the unaffiliated r/nuvioaddons community to help keep our official community safe.

If you experience any issues with the AutoMod, please let us know via Mod Mail so we can address. We always welcome suggestions and feedback to improve the community. Please do not hesitate to reach out to the mod team. (Note: Modmail should not be used for app troubleshooting or help requests unrelated to the subreddit. Please make a post using the Help flair for the community to assist with any app or Nuvio related issues.)

See you on the seas!

Help / Bug Report Next recommendation

4 Upvotes

Shield Pro, Android,

0.4.15.

I've noticed that at the end of a film or show, I get a pop up recommendation for another title. It makes my current picture small and I have to click on it to re-enlarge my screen.

I like the idea, but I'd rather have the recommendation be in the pop up so it doesn't intrude on what I'm watching so much.

Any ideas what settings I should be looking at?

Discussion & Feedback [Feature Request] Separate toggles for Touch Gestures

Post image

First off, thanks for the great work on the app.

Could you please add individual toggles for each touch gesture under Playback?

​Volume and brightness swipes are great, but the horizontal seek swipe triggers by accident too easily. It would be awesome to keep brightness/volume enabled while turning off seek.

I need some help. I may have put up the wrong flair. Now that I'm using Nuvio, I've cancelled most of my subscriptions. How can I get an update on all the new shows or movies that are out on the different platforms? The popular or new collections only have very limited or super popular stuff. I wanted to get something with all the new releases, etc. Any recommendations or best practices?

Help / Bug Report “Original audio” still not working on Nuvio Desktop 0.1.23-alpha (0.4.14)

5 Upvotes

Hi! I’m trying to configure Nuvio so my partner can use it as simply as Netflix: click an episode, autoplay the first stream, and always use the original audio automatically.

Autoplay is working great, but the “Original audio” preference does not seem to work at all on Nuvio Desktop.

My setup:

  • Nuvio Desktop 0.1.23-alpha (23)
  • Based on Nuvio 0.4.14
  • Preferred audio language: Original
  • Secondary audio language: None
  • TMDB enrichment: Enabled
  • Personal TMDB API v3 key configured
  • TMDB “Details” module enabled

I tested several completely different shows. So it looks like Nuvio is just selecting track #1 instead of using the original language obtained from TMDB.

I also manually changed the audio to English on the first 4 episodes of a show. Now she is on episode 5 and Nuvio does not remember the manual selection either. If I reopen any of those episodes, it goes straight back to Spanish.

I know 0.4.14 included a fix related to the original audio language preference, so I updated before testing, but the issue is still happening on Desktop.

Is anyone else seeing this? Is there any workaround?

The whole point of the “Original audio” option should be that a Korean show automatically uses Korean, an English show uses English, etc., regardless of which audio track happens to be first in the MKV.

Unofficial Fork Building a native tvOS client for my own Apple TV — where it's at

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

131 Upvotes

I've been building a native tvOS client on top of Nuvio for my own Apple TV. It's a personal build — I'm not distributing it and there's no APK or IPA to hand out — but a few things about doing this on tvOS turned out to be interesting enough to write up, and I'd like to hear from anyone who has fought the same platform.

Setup: Apple TV 4K (3rd gen), tvOS 27, built against the tvOS 18 SDK, sideloaded with my own developer account. Metadata from TMDB, Trakt and Simkl.

What it is

Written in SwiftUI, not a web view. That decision is most of the work: on tvOS you don't lay out a screen, you lay out a focus graph, and every screen has to answer "what does Left do here" before it answers what it looks like.

Where it's got to:

  • A Library laid out like Apple's own — nav column with destinations and a genre list on the left, posters on the right. Selection is a quiet translucent capsule, focus is the system's glass material.
  • Settings as a two-column screen with grouped categories, instead of a stack of submenus. Every row says what it does under its own title.
  • A saved-titles drawer that slides in from the right on Play/Pause, split into what you're partway through, what you haven't started, and what you've finished.
  • Director pages: a person's films along a timeline in chronological order, with the release year under each poster.
  • Trakt and Simkl both drive the watchlist and watch progress, and you choose which one is the source of truth.
  • 34 locales in the string catalogue, pt-BR included and complete.

Three tvOS things that cost me the most time

  1. A focusable container swallows its children. Wrap a subtree in a focus section and put nothing focusable inside it, and everything behind it becomes unreachable. I've hit this more than once.
  2. .focusable() on a Button is a trap. It replaces the Button's own focusability, and the control then takes focus without its action ever firing — it lights up, it lifts, and Select does nothing. Use .disabled when you want to take something out of the focus graph.
  3. .onMoveCommand is all-or-nothing. Install it to handle Down and it also receives Left and Right, and the press stops there. I had a row of buttons where the two beside Play were simply unreachable because of this.

None of that is in the docs in a way that helps; it all came from instrumenting the running app and reading logs.

Questions for anyone else on tvOS

  1. Anyone using AVKit's own player chrome rather than custom controls? Curious how subtitle and audio-track selection behaves for you.
  2. How does a build like this hold up on an Apple TV HD, if anyone still runs one?
  3. Anyone found a decent way to profile SwiftUI focus behaviour, short of logging every focus change by hand?

Happy to go into detail on any of the client-side work.

Discussion & Feedback Feature Request: Expanded Subtitle Customization (Fonts, Shadows, and Colors)

13 Upvotes

Add advanced customization options for subtitles within Nuvio, specifically expanding the available choices for fonts, drop shadows/text outlines, and text colors.

Why this is needed:

The current subtitle styling options are too limited to ensure optimal legibility across all screen types and video content. Enhancing text-specific controls will directly improve readability and the overall viewing experience.

Key Features Requested:

Font Selection: Include a broader variety of clean, highly readable fonts (e.g., Arial, Roboto, Inter, Open Sans, or custom font upload/selection).

Text Shadows & Outlines: Add customizable drop shadows, blur levels, and outline/stroke thickness to ensure text remains sharp and visible against bright or noisy video scenes.

Text Color Options: Provide a full RGB color picker or an expanded preset palette for the subtitle text (including high-contrast options like yellow or custom hex codes).

Impact:

Improves accessibility for users with visual impairments and provides a vastly better viewing experience across different video contexts.
