Manage your sources
Edit a connection, choose content, pause a source or remove it deliberately.

Choose the correct type
Use the connector that matches the service: Dispatcharr, Xtream, M3U/XMLTV, FRITZ!Box, HDHomeRun, Jellyfin, Emby, Tvheadend, HTSP, TVMosaic or DVB-I. Available content and recording features depend on the connector and server.
Plex and unsupported server types are not interchangeable with these choices. A playlist URL belongs in the playlist field, while a server address belongs in the connector server field.
Change a source URL, address or login
Edit the existing source when its server address or login changes. Creating a second source is a separate action. Check the revised connection before saving.
When a checked connection edit belongs to the existing account, the source keeps its local library, category choices and personal references. A verified different account or a changed bare API-key account must be isolated instead of reusing another account's private data.
A plain address change should not request a new complete film and series setup. Newly enabled content or a genuinely incomplete original setup can still require preparation.
The old address does not have to be reachable to validate and save a working replacement. The existing source is kept if validation fails or you cancel; use the inline error to correct the new address.
- Open Settings, manage sources and select the existing source.
- Edit its address or login details. Keep the content areas you still want enabled.
- Check the connection and save the revised source. Your existing group visibility, favourites and saved library should remain.
- If the service identifies a genuinely different account, review the account change separately. A failed check or Cancel must not replace the saved configuration.
Choose what is included
Live TV, Movies and Series select the broad content areas a connector supports. Category visibility is configured separately. Selecting Movies does not mean that every personally hidden movie category should be enabled again.
Keep language and category choices based on your own needs. The app is not restricted to German libraries.
Pause or remove
Temporarily deactivating a source and deleting it have different effects. Deactivation hides the source from active browsing while preserving its stored configuration. Read the confirmation before deleting.
A source removal can also affect its saved references and future recording rules. Stop playback that uses the source before changing it. Backing up personal settings is a separate task from keeping a disposable image cache.
