PS4 IPTV v0.3.0 by realityofai32-stack

You add the source yourself: an Xtream Codes account (server address, username and password) or the address of an M3U or M3U8 playlist. A playlist file copied to /data/PS4IPTV/playlists/ also works. There are no channels or accounts in the app.

An Xtream source gets live TV, films and series with seasons and episodes, search, favourites, and Continue Watching that picks up at the exact spot. Films and episodes can be downloaded to the console and played later without a connection. A playlist only ever shows up as live TV channels.

Audio and subtitle tracks can be switched while something plays, and Options in the player has aspect ratio, crop and zoom.

- Square: favourite, or download an episode
- Triangle: search
- Options: settings, or playback options in the player
- L2 / R2: page up and down, or skip a minute in the player
- D-pad left / right: skip 10 seconds in the player

The author lists some limits in this version. Streams on HTTPS addresses won't play, only plain HTTP ones. There's no programme guide, recording or timeshift. Video is decoded in software, so very high bitrates or 4K can stutter. Menus are in English or Turkish. Everything it saves, passwords included, stays in /data/PS4IPTV/ on the console.

V7 IPTV v0.3.0 is a major visual and usability update to the PS4 IPTV project, tested on a physical PlayStation 4.

V7 IPTV is the redesigned evolution of PS4 IPTV. It is the same app: same title ID, same data on the console. It installs over v0.2.0 as an update and keeps your sources, settings, favorites, history, resume positions and downloads.

> V7 IPTV is a client only. It ships with no channels, movies, series, accounts, subscriptions, playlists or provider credentials, and it is not affiliated with any IPTV provider. Bring your own legitimate source.

What's new

• V7 IPTV redesign and branding: new name, V7 logo and a complete new interface
• New black / charcoal TV interface with nine accent themes: V7 Blue, Cyan, Teal, Green, Purple, Magenta, Red, Orange and White. The base stays neutral; the accent colours only focus, buttons, active tabs, progress, toggles and selection.
• Redesigned Home: navigation bar, a Continue Watching hero with Resume / Details, and media cards
• Improved catalog browsing for Movies and Series: category rail and poster grid, sorting
• Redesigned details, Live TV, Search and Settings, plus updated Downloads and Favorites
• Better artwork fitting and poster quality: posters keep their own shape (no 16:9 crops), sharper poster images, channel logos never cropped
• Improved backdrop handling: provider backdrops when the source offers them, otherwise a quality-limited poster fallback
• Accelerated controller navigation: hold-to-scroll on every list (0.3 s delay, then faster and faster)
• 45-second Next Episode countdown for series episodes:
• ✕ Play now, ○ Cancel
• with no button pressed, the next episode starts when the current one genuinely ends
• Settings › Playback › Auto-play next episode, on by default
• Continue Watching integration: Next Episode works the same from Continue Watching and Series Detail
• Automatic season-to-season playback in the provider's episode order
• Offline-aware Next Episode: in offline mode the next episode must already be downloaded
• Native Kubuntu build workflow: this release was built and validated on Kubuntu Linux

Core features

• Xtream Codes accounts and M3U / M3U8 playlists, with multiple sources
• Live TV with categories, logos, favorites and fast zapping

This release PKG is built from the v0.3.0 tagged source. The V7 UI and core playback flow were tested on a physical PS4; the final 45-second countdown adjustment passed the automated release validation.

Release validation (Kubuntu, scripts/verify-ps4iptv.sh):

• clean build with zero warnings from the project's sources;
• 26,646 + 38 host test checks, 0 failures;
• download integration test 46 + 19 checks, 0 failures;
• English / Turkish localization checks;
• pkg_validate 28 OK, exact PKG contents allow-list, PKG secret scan, system modules within the pPlay-proven set;
• reachable-history secret scan CLEAN (fresh clone).

Known limitations

• HTTPS media streams are not supported by the bundled FFmpeg playback stack (streams play over HTTP, RTMP, UDP, RTP). The Xtream API, images, playlist downloads and offline downloads use libcurl and do work over HTTPS.
• M3U / M3U8 sources are Live TV only: no movie / series detection, Continue Watching or downloads.
• No EPG / programme guide, recording or timeshift.
• Video is decoded in software; very high bitrates or 4K may not play smoothly.
• Scripts:
• Thai, Devanagari and other Indic scripts, emoji and rare CJK characters show a box.
• Arabic and Hebrew use basic right-to-left reordering, not full shaping.
• Subtitles in scripts other than Latin, Greek and Cyrillic cannot be drawn.
