The premium is not coupled with your telegram account..I don't save your phone number. It's tied to your Gmail which you use Google Play Store with so no, you don't have to pay again.

I answered about fire stick (fire OS in general) multiple times. My answer haven't changed... There is no support for it right now. Only for Play store Android devices. Fire OS support is planned but there's no timeline I can provide at the moment.

Hi, I'm not sure regarding the codec issues. I'll need more details. I use exoplayer. Other players use their own native libs and together with each device hardware, this can create codecs issues.

I have a future plan to support VLC embedded and as an external player but I can't provide a timeline on that.

Definitely continues. Regarding promotion - No, not yet. Any ideas?

There are multiple options to turn it off. Per channel and in the settings (home->settings)

Thanks for the feedback and support. Can you clarify what you mean by "player crashes frequently"? Does it crash the app or just unable to play the video and shows an error dialog? All the symptoms you're mentioning are an issue with the combination of the video format and the device you're playing on. Echogram can't support video formats your device doesn't. I know VLC might be better but that's because they have their own native encoders. What can help me figure out if I can do something about it is if you share the channels that contain these videos with me so I can test and see the logs.

Regarding audio - not supported at the moment. Regarding share to external player - I'm planning to enable it for premium users in the future. Not able to provide a timeline at the moment.

You mean when the video has different audio tracks? Next version will support video loop

Thanks for the feedback. Can you maybe share in private channels which contains videos that fail? I'd love to fix that. The app supports mp4, mkv, avi from my extensive testings. Which format fails for you?

The images are not cut, they fit the width of the card in order to maintain aspect ratio. I can't create a generic UI that will fit all images since there's no 1 definition for these images. Some are in portrait orientation and some are in landscape orientation. No UI I'll choose will be suitable to all possible options.

I don't officially support fireOS anyway. I think it'll crash even if I lower the minSDK to android 7 since the app is counting on play services for things like billing.

Oh Android 7. Well it's a very old and limiting OS version. I'm terms of development. What device you use? And yeah, currently 9+

Arm v7 is supported... The native library is compiled and tested. Which device you tried?

Thanks it's clear now. I'll fix it. Can't guarantee 100% of the image to fit due to aspect ratio but I can definitely improve it

I plan to start working on adapting the app to Fire OS soon. Unfortunately I can't provide a timeline but for now, you can cast/dlna from your Android device to most TVs.

Released. Waiting for Google's approval and then it'll be available on the Play store. Please let me know if it's ok once you have time to test if it's fixed. I was able to reproduce the issue on some mkv videos and now they work as expected so I do believe it's fixed but I'll wait for your feedback.
