nessViewer 2.7.6 available (Bild-Kino, MyVideo)

This version adapts among others Bild-Kino and MyVideo - Bild-Kino was adapted only one month ago. Also some of the providers offered by the extension were concerned.

As always: please report broken providers by mail to tvchannels@nessviewer.com.

nessViewer App 1.4.3 available now

After clarifying with Apple the reason for the rejection and making some changes, the new version of nessViewer App is now available a short time after the upload.

Originally this version should has been available since end of February because several internet tv offers were not available - we hope future updates will be available again just in time.

Unfortunately the settings have a liste mistake: it must be "safe surfing" instead of "save surfing". :-)

nessViewer App 1.4.3 submitted again to the app store

The Appple Developer Team has given us now detailed information why the app was rejected: the safe browsing may not load all content of a web page and the App Review Team found that this may result in "incorrect" rendering/displaying of web pages.

We now made the "safe browsing" optionally - this way the user can decide whether to browse safely or not (and to accept "incorrect" rendering or not).

For those who do not understand the reason for safe surfing: a lot of web sides load data from other providers and thereby give user data to these providers. By browsing (now optionally) safely only content from the web side is loaded (and thereby the user can avoid to give data to other providers).
Another effect is to avoid redirections to mobile web sides - which sometimes is helpful if one wants to use the "normal" web content.

nessViewer 2.7.5 available (YouTube movies)

About one month ago we adapted the YouTube movies at the MediaCenter - and now YouTube changed their web page code again. Not that the changes are visible... :-)

But one advantage have the changes - we can now offer the YouTube movies without advertisings again. Let's see how long it will work.

nessViewer App 1.4.3 rejected by Apple

Unfortunately the current version 1.4.3 of nessViewer App was rejected by Apple.
Currently we can not understand the reason for this - but we are trying to clarify with Apple their statement ("The app is not using the WebKit in a appropriate manner in the integrated browser.").
The rejection is surprising us in particular because all previous versions were released by Apple and we did not change anything at the integrated browser.

Until the clarification and release of the new version some of the internet offers (e.g. Free Movies Cinema) are not working (or - even worse - will lead to a crash of the app) - these errors were fixed in version 1.4.3.

As always we can only offer to send us the UDID of your iPad/iPhone/iPod touch - with the UDID we can send you a pre-release of version 1.4.3.
