Tips & Tricks
Maximize your ynoTV experience with these specialized tips and advanced features.
Power User Shortcuts
Section titled “Power User Shortcuts”Beyond standard controls, ynoTV includes shortcuts for advanced users.
Source Management
Right-click any source in the Settings view for diagnostics.
Advanced Configuration
Section titled “Advanced Configuration”Startup View
Section titled “Startup View”Configure which page is displayed on launch under Settings → Startup → Startup View. Choose from your preferred starting page — whether it’s Live TV, EPG, VOD, or any other section — so ynoTV opens exactly where you want it every time.
40+ Themes
Section titled “40+ Themes”Customizing the look of your app:
- Explore 40+ built-in themes in Settings > Themes.
- Look for Neon and Glassmorphism options for a modern look.
- OLED Black Background renders dark-theme surfaces as pure black while keeping the accent color — great for OLED displays and saving power. It applies to the Dark & Dark Color themes in the V3 UI (and to custom themes via the matching OLED mode option: pure-black surfaces, no backdrop blur, flattened gradients).
24 UI Languages
Section titled “24 UI Languages”ynoTV’s interface is translated into 24 languages — Arabic, Bosnian, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Croatian, Dutch, English, Farsi, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, and Vietnamese. Switch any time under Settings → Language.
Minimize to Tray
Section titled “Minimize to Tray”Enable Settings → UI → Minimize to tray when closing and closing the window hides it to the system tray instead of quitting — so live playback and scheduled recordings keep running. Use the tray icon to reopen the window or fully quit the app.
Automated Backups
Section titled “Automated Backups”Never lose your setup. Under Settings → Import/Export → Automated Backup, ynoTV can automatically save a backup file at a regular interval — every hour up to every week — using the same format as the manual Export option:
- Pick the backup interval and how many backups to keep (1–20, oldest pruned automatically).
- Choose the backup folder (default or custom).
- Back up now saves instantly, and the last backup time is shown so you know it’s running.
Restoring is just as easy: use Import in the same settings tab, and your sources, settings, customizations, watch history, local library entries, and more come back.
Startup Behavior
Section titled “Startup Behavior”Configure your app to start exactly where you left off:
- Remember Channels: Reopen the last viewed channels on launch.
- Multiview Reconnect: Reassemble your last multiview layout automatically.
Source Name in Search Results
Section titled “Source Name in Search Results”When managing multiple IPTV sources, differentiating between channels with identical names across different providers can be challenging. Enable source identification in search results to improve channel selection accuracy.
Configuration Path : Navigate to Settings → LiveTV → Search tab
Enable Display : Toggle Include Source Name in Search to append the provider identifier to each search result
Benefit : Instantly identify which source a channel belongs to without manually checking, streamlining your search experience when working with multiple providers
