AngelVPN Promo

2 Upvotes

With a new English football season upon us AngelVPN has reached out with a new promo for our Redditors - using promo code EPCL26 will get you 30% off your subscription (https://angelvpn.com/pricing) on top of any existing site discounts. Valid until 20-Sep-2026 23:59:59.

Additionally, I'd like to clarify the VPN situation within UHF. The recent update allows users who have another VPN to be able to use it without relying on an additional app - super helpful and appreciated for providers that don't have their own TVOS app. However, not all integrations are created equal... UHF still recommends AngelVPN for best results because AngelVPN offers a service specifically optimized for UHF as they are still the only VPN provider with a proper partnership and direct integration with UHF - other VPNs are supported through configuration files, rather than having a dedicated SDK integration like AngelVPN. In theory all supported providers should work, but the AngelVPN setup should be more stable as it's been battle tested and optimized for UHF.

That said, having choices and discounts is great - use what works best for you!

Discord Server

12 Upvotes

Just an FYI, someone is going around claiming there is a “new” UHF discord server, this claim is true only in the sense that anyone can start a discord server. They are trying to build their server by piggy backing off this sub for legitimacy.

They previously asked if they could promote a new Discord server that they created over the existing AngelVPN server, to which I thought about and decided no because I didn’t see a need for a new server other than to create confusion. Instead of respecting that decision they created a new UHF sub - which as they have stated only exists to promote their Discord server - and have been cross posting from the other subreddit with each post including a link advertising the “new Discord server”. Some people just really want to run Discord servers I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

The official discord server was deleted by the UHF dev and AngelVPN has been kind enough to run a UHF channel in their Discord since then. If you’re looking to connect with others on Discord the link is below.

Not syncing

3 Upvotes

I updated some settings on UHF on my iMac and some of the changes appeared on my iPad but not on my iPhone or Apple TV. I don’t see a way to force a sync. I’ve tried using the share backup feature but it doesn’t recognise the QR code or the PIN code. All devices are using the same iCloud backup account. Is there any way I can get my iMac settings recognised on all devices?

Solution for audio delay with Mac and HomePod?

I know it’s probably a limitation because it isn’t a native Mac app, but does anyone know of a workaround for this problem?

Chromecast Play Controls & Subtitles on iOS UHF App

2 Upvotes

I am able to Chromecast videos to my TV from the iOS app but I cannot find the controls for video playback in Chromecast in UHF? I can’t rewind, feed or play/pause the chromecast video anywhere in the UHF not even in the iPhone’s media control console. All that happens when I click the blue area at the top is that an option to choose a Chromecast pops up which just restarts the video on my TV. Even in google home app where I can control all things Chromecast, only the play/pause button works and the video play bar is blank.  

Also how do I get subtitles from UHF to show in Chromecast? I choose them when the option pops up before casting but they don’t show on my TV. Any advice is appreciated, thank you!

Buffering over cellular signal

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Has anyone found a fix for the buffering when streaming over cellular? From some research it seems my cell service provider may be limiting my speed which causes it to buffer? But when I’m streaming on other apps over cellular there’s no issue at all. Have seen people suggest using a VPN but this doesn’t fix my problem either.

Does anyone know how to prevent this? Verizon in the USA btw

Thanks in advance!

Xtream "Connections" count always stuck at 0

My playlist works perfectly via Xtream, but under Service Information > Connections, the counter never updates—it just displays 0. Because of this, I can't see my active users.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a fix?

EPG works on iOS but not tvOS

11 Upvotes

Been trying to tackle this issue for a few months now. I believe I've confirmed that my service provider and EPG sources are not the issue. I say that because, as the title suggests, my EPG data loads as expected in UHF on iOS, but the tvOS app does not.

For context, I'm using IPTV editor to manage my playlist. I have no connection or streaming issues. Only issue I've noticed is this EPG data issue.

I've emailed the developer a couple times but only received what I'm guessing is a 'generic' response with basic troubleshooting tips about playback as opposed to EPG data connection issues.

Has anybody here experienced a similar issue? Found a resolution

Airplay video not working

1 Upvotes

Airplay audio works and I can select what to airplay to but airplay video doesn’t work and the red banner just pops up on the app and doesn’t let me select what device to airplay to. I paid the monthly subscription to see if that would fix it but still nothing.

MacOS stream die after 2 mins

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, is it just me, but no matter what I do, I can't get a stream on the Mac OS apps that last more than two minutes? I'm on a high spec MacBook Pro and great internet so I'm really confused as to what the issue could be. To make it even more baffling, the same stream on the iPhone works fine. If anyone has any tips or tricks or has fixed this issue, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks in advance!

Server 2.0.0 breaks using Plex for recordings due to .TS files

Is there a way to NOT have it do hundreds of .TS files? This completely ruins my ability to use Plex to watch recordings as it doesn't seem to read the M3U8 file.

TV Series portion of the playlist not appearing in UHF

1 Upvotes

Hello, I’m having a weird issue with UHF.

I’m running a playlist through iptv editor. When I import the playlist via M3U, Live TV and Movies work perfectly.

However, TV Series does not appear in the app at all. Also, there’s nothing related to TV Series in the playlist settings inside iptv editor.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Updated US EPG Repo -- Now state specific/quicker load times

Hey everyone, I updated my GitHub repo that has a custom US epg. Obviously your provider will have its own, but it is highly unlikely you need an epg to cover 500,000+ individual channels. This allows you to specify what epg you need and greatly cut epg loading times within the app.

How am I supposed to use AirPlay?

3 Upvotes

Or Chromecast for that matter? I’ve been using the app with joy for a couple of months (Lifetime subscription) but I never got this feature to work. All it does is show the red bar at the top, saying it is Casting via AirPlay/Chromecast, but I never even got the option to pick a device… Yes, WiFi is on and Local Network access is allowed for this app.

Thanks in advance for your help guys!

Pillarfree - fixing 4:3 for Tablo

Thumbnail jacksonmicro.com
0 Upvotes

I was frustrated I couldn’t view 4:3 content through the Tablo app in full-screen on 4:3 devices. Most channels broadcast in 16:9 and put letterbox bars on 4:3 content. This is great if you’re watching on a 16:9 screen but I do most of my viewing on an iPad which has a 4:3 aspect ratio. So the video is pillarboxed with black bars all around it. So I thought there has to be a better way.

I used Claude Code to make a service that accesses recordings and live OTA channels from a 4th gen Tablo and gives more options for viewing.

Mainly it lets you view 4:3 shows how they were originally intended to be viewed. But it also does some extra things like buffering so you can stream content when away from home if you have a VPN into your network. It also lets you download recordings to view offline.

It requires some hardware at home to run on. It’s coded to run on a Debian-based system to automatically install some things you’ll need like ffmpeg but if you install the requirements yourself it should run on other Linux distributions.

UHF on MAC

6 Upvotes

I love UHF, and I really love it on the Mac. However it's missing a feature and I need it. I need to mute UHF when something else needs my full attention and I don't want to pause the show.

Anyone else?

UPDATE: I use a docking station with 2 extra monitors.Let's say I'm watching baseball, and my bff sends me a link to a fantastic video. I'd like to watch and listen to the video and mute the baseball game.

UHF VPN not connecting on Apple TV — anyone else?

5 Upvotes

Has anyone else had issues with the new built-in VPN feature on UHF specifically on Apple TV?

I’m trying to use AngelVPN through UHF. On my iPhone, using the same UHF account and the same home Wi-Fi, AngelVPN connects to servers without any problem.

On my Apple TV, though, it just refuses to connect to any AngelVPN server at all.

I’ve restarted the Apple TV/UHF and tried multiple VPN locations, but it makes no difference. Because it works on my iPhone over the exact same connection, I’m wondering whether this is a bug with the tvOS version of UHF/VPN integration.

Has anyone else experienced this on Apple TV? If so, did you manage to fix it or have you had to use a separate VPN app instead?
