Amazon Fire TV

[XuluWarrior]

It turns out that Amazon chose not to include a usable implementation of Storage Access Framework for their TV devices and so a project like this still has purpose for modern development.

I like the clean UI of this project and the way you can add document providers and so I'm currently thinking of using it as the basis of my file browser.

Seeing as there's been no updates to this project for 4 years now, I'm assuming that it is inactive because nobody else is using it any more. But in case people are, I thought I'd reach out.

Is there anybody out there?

If this project is dead, do you have any recommendations for alternatives?

@XuluWarrior Hey! we are here.

Yes, the project is not been used right now that's why it does not receive updates.

Feel free to open pull requests to add support for Amazon Fire TV, we will take a look to the PR and approved if everything is OK.

Hi @joselufo

Good to know that there's someone out there.

I've been silent since my last post as I've been going down a rabbit hole of ideas and hacking away. (As well as thinking about the Fire TV UX, I've also been getting the cloud providers working with the new APIs)

I'm not an Android developer so some of my ideas are probably less appropriate than others.
Once I've managed to turn my hacks into shareable code, I'll create some PRs for feedback.
