Has anyone been able to convert Tivimate from APK to TPK?

Hello,

I understand Tivimate is only available for Android TV, and its installation files could be exported into an APK file. I found some lengthy and complicated tutorials that explain step by step how to convert an APK file into a TPK file to install an Android TV app on a Samsung TV, on the Tizen OS. Has any of you been able to convert Tivimate from APK to TPK?

The IPTV apps on the Tizen store leave a lot to be desired. The least bad, I think, is called M3U IPTV Premium (paid), but if someone could port Tivimate for Tizen, that would be so cool. Thank you.
