Now DailyMotion has changed their web page: some videos are offered now in hight quality beside the normal quality.

At the "Center" tab in the preference "Prefer high movie resolution" can be set: beside Arte, ARD- and ZDF-Mediathek and SpiegelOnline now also DailyMotion will take this settings.

Also some providers of the extension were adapted.

nessViewer 2.7.7 available

This version fixes 2 minor bugs:
1.) Clicking on DailyMotion in the browsers "provider examples" displayed DailyMotion without the CSS (which resulted in a very bad display).
2.) At the "German Television" the videos of the podcast were not available due to an developing error.

ForUTV is changing their cinema movie offer: a new domain named "MobyMovies" and movies from Google and YouTube (beside the old ForUTV movies). This might get interesting in the future; currently ForUTV is not available any more and removed from the MediaCenter.

nessViewer App 1.4.4 available

Just after the last update some of the providers (especially the extended offer) did not work anymore. An imp who sees a connection between an update and the non-availability of some providers? :-)

Fortunately Apple has released this update just in time: thanks!

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.
