NUPlayer

This project hosts NUPlayer, an unofficial, Android TV / Google TV player for VRT.NU content based on the Leanback library by Google.

Without the great and awesome work of the guys who wrote the Kodi VRT.NU plugin this project would never have existed.

Under releases you will find a first beta release but please do expect a lot of bugs. There is still a huge amount of work to be done. Get in touch if you want to help out.

For now only tested on Google 2020 Chromecast (the one with remote). Any recent Android TV box (TADAAM, Mi Box, NVIDIA Shield etc) should work.

Current status

Works (yay!)

  • VRT login
  • Live TV
  • Browsing / searching the VRT.NU catalog
  • Playback of any on-demand program in the catalog (including DRM protected content)

Doesn't work yet

  • Season selection, only the last / current season can be played
  • Only last 10 episodes of a season can be played for now (this is highest prio on backlog)
  • Resume points / video progress
  • Favorites
  • All stuff I didn't think about

Installation

  • Enable developer mode on your Chromecast (Settings > System > About > Android TV OS Build > Keep clicking it until it says "Developer Mode enabled")
  • Install a file manager (X-plore File Manager highly recommended)
  • Download APK from releases and transfer via file manager
  • Install
  • Enjoy!
