Any chance for search within EPG?

Can we please have an x86 version for windows ?

Dear development team! I use this player on Windows 11. I really like it. But! It's not enough for me! I want to see a version for Android! When will I be able to use this player on my amazing tablet? Thank you.

I can not connect my xtream codes, it is rejecting it, tried in IPTV smarters, there it worked, also the m3u url works, but the code does not work

The program is great, but I have one problem. When I browse the EPG backwards, I can't start a program that was on earlier—my provider allows me to go back a few days. On Android, I use Televizo, and it works flawlessly. Is there any chance you could make it work?
