Android TV application to watch content from F1 TV.
At this time, content from the current session and old sessions are available, including F1, F2, F3... Onboard channels when available are supported, as well as technical channels like the tracker channel, and on future I will bring documentaries (I hope).
This app currently use the F1TV 2.0 apis and support stream content of 1080p at 50FPS
Audio selection (language or no commentary) is supported.
Resolution selection (from 270p to 1080p) is available, however the app knows based on bandwidth what is the best resolution to pickup, this is built in with ExoPlayer.
Closed captions supported in english, spanish, dutch and german.
Application is available in English, Dutch, German, French, Portuguese and Russian. Feel free to translate it and open a PR :D
The app is available on Google Playstore
The app is supported on fire sticks / tvs, however due some technicalities I can't offer the app directly on Amazon store please refer to the releases page to download the latest apk and side load it.
The app itself is always sort of "beta", however you can join the public app beta (on playstore) by clicking on the following link (on your web browser) https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.github.leonardoxh.f1 by joining the beta you'll receive the features before anyone else, but it might mean that the app is uninstable.
I normally accept new features in PRs that bring improvements to the app, however, due some last recent bugs introduced in some PRs where I had to revert literally the whole PR for new features please create a github issue first before any code change and try to describe what you want to do as detailed as possible so we can chat on the issue and see if this is something we want to onboard or not, be in mind also that we do not work in this app full time, so the features have to be very well tested, so everyone can enjoy the races.
Also be in mind that the code of the app needs an extensive refactor.
I have created this app because the official F1 TV app does not officially support Android TV and even after sideloading it, it's not usable with a remote. The official website is also not easily usable with a remote. If in the future an official application would be available, I will happily abandon this one.
This will always be a free and open source app.
First of all thank you Groggy the original creator of this project that I forked without you this would never be possible.
Thanks to all contributors of f1viewer for their work on how to use the F1 TV API.
Thanks to my friend Thiago Andrade for the exclusive icons and color guidelines.
