Features

  • MVC is a movie list plugin for DreamOS settop boxes.
  • MVC implements a permanent sqlite movie cache which allows MVC to display the movie list with all its information without disk access. So, no spinners or delays due to disk spinup.

  • MVC implements exact event start time and duration rather than recording start time and duration which includes margins before and after the event as implemented in the standard DreamOS.
  • MVC provides various options to configure the skin to your liking.
  • MVC provides a smart jump function that conventiently allows to skip advertisements using the bouquet keys by adapting the skip distance automatically.
