Web application.

The web browser application is HTML5 and CSS based, powered by the Plum iTV HTML5 Video Player — an extensible, plugin-oriented player that supports HLS and DASH adaptive bitrate streaming protocols out of the box.

All HTML, CSS, and assets are static and served from the website's own server, while a dedicated API layer handles every dynamic action and subscriber-specific request. The web app is optimised to work seamlessly with all major browsers.

  • HTML5 & CSS based application
  • Plum iTV HTML5 Video Player included
  • HLS & DASH ABR protocol support
  • Optimised for all major browsers
  • Plugin-oriented & extensible architecture

Native apps across every screen.

Mobile is delivered as a native Android application (.apk) using the Plum iTV native Android Video Player — the same player as on Android STB / Smart TV — and as a native iOS application powered by the Plum iTV native iOS Player, an alternative to iOS AV Player. Both support HLS and DASH adaptive playback. Minimum versions: Android 5 and iOS 8.

For the living room, the same Plum experience runs on Android STBs and Android Smart TVs through a native Android application, plus dedicated builds for Samsung and LG Smart TVs. A built-in ChromeCast extension lets subscribers cast streams from their mobile device to any TV with a ChromeCast dongle connected via HDMI.

  • Native Android (.apk) — min Android 5
  • Native iOS — min iOS 8
  • Android STB & Android Smart TV apps
  • Samsung & LG Smart TV builds
  • ChromeCast extension built-in
  • Single shared player for Android & STB
