Features

Main app screen

Be In Control

Control up to four MythTV frontends and backends from the same app. The app can search for MythTVs on your network and connect to them automatically, provided that the frontend and backend are on the same machine. For more advanced setups or networks with peculiar settings, you can manually connect to MythTVs as long as you know the frontend and backend private IP addresses.

Remote control screen

The remote control screen features large buttons that are easy to press without looking down all the time. Some buttons, such as the directional arrows, feature repetition, such that you can hold them down and the action will be repeated until you let go.

  • Tap the left volume icon to mute and unmute.
  • One-tap commercial skip and sleep timer.
