A full featured client for Stash on Android TV or Fire TV.
The app supports browsing, searching, and filtering just about everything including scenes, images, performers, tags, etc. The app also supports video hardware decoding when available so your server can transcode less.
The app is not intended to perform administrative functions such as scraping or editing details. Some curation tasks are available though such as adding tags or performers to scenes.
First of all, thank you for this amazing app! The user experience is fantastic overall and your app has replaced Plex as my go-to choice for viewing Stash content on my TV. You’ve done an amazing job with it!
The marker functionality and being able to essentially view a playlist of markers is something I’m especially excited about as that’s not something we can currently do with Stash itself. However, I have one issue that’s currently preventing me from using it properly.
When I sort the markers in various ways and especially randomly, some of the markers end up not loading properly, and clicking on them doesn’t do anything (or I get a crash, which happened in the previous UI):
I suspect this could be connected to the fact that I have a lot of markers (close to 30,000) and this affects how they’re loaded, but this is just a guess.
I’m glad you like the app! Sorry it’s not quite working though. It’s hard to tell what the issue could be.
30k items is a good amount, but I’d expect it to load eventually (it could time out though).
Make sure you update to the latest version of the app. If that doesn’t fix it, then the next step would be to gather the app logs. You can DM me here or on Discord to share the logs privately.
Hi again folks. I know I am new here and this post may come off as over reacting.
I recently starting migrating my collection to stashapp and wanted to try out the recommendation of the StashAppAndroidTV application too. The second time I when to use it however I was presented with a 60 second Advertisement that was injected before my own video played.
I want to be clear that I am not opposed to Advertisements as a method of monetization. We all need to pay the bills.
What concerns me is that this was not disclosed at all in the applications readme or documentation. Nor could I find any evidence of it from a initial review of the source code.
Whats more concerning is that the Advertisement we for a genre of content that as far as I can tell stash as not really accounted for in its development and was directly aligned with the content I was intending to view from my own collection. This would lead me to believe that my collection was analyzed to select this Advertisement to show me. If that is the case then I would be very upset as info like that of our collections in app like stash is not something I think most of us would want shared with third parties.
Now I know that the developer of StashAppAndroidTV may not be directly related to that of StashApp itself but It does give me pause all the same. If this kind of possible data harvesting was in this appliction without me knowing could it be in others in this community of applications.
I would like to have a conversation with the community that knows the project and code base better them me, a newcomer and get a better understanding about it all.
EDIT: Scratch everything I said. LOL the Advertisement was in my own video. I just had not seen that vid in so long I did not remember that.
Hey there, I’m the developer of StashAppAndroidTV! I’m glad you found out what showed the ads.
Just to confirm though: StashAppAndroidTV does not have any ads at all. The app does not send any data to third parties.
If you have the companion plugin installed on your server, the app will send error logs only to your Stash server. You can read more about this feature here.
The app does use GitHub’s API to see if there’s an update available and download it. The automatic update check can be turned off in advanced settings.
