Multi-channel EPG

The multi-channel EPG (Electronic Programming Guide) is a menu based feature that helps users gather information about radio or television stations available. The information is continuously updated and displays the current program alongside a time stamp.

Prerequisite

In order to show items using Applicaster's Multi channel EPG you'll need to provide 2 types of feeds:

  1. Channels - A single feed containing a list of all available channels that you would like to present in the EPG screen. Channel logos should be supplied in 4x3 format & preferably centered in their bounds. You should use a transparent 192x144 pixels png image.

  2. Programs - A feed per channel that will hold the list of programs on that feed. Each program grid can open content, such as program show or player, that you implement in the feed.

Please read here how to implment EPG feeds

Android, iOS, LG TV, Samsung TV, Apple TV, Android TV and Fire TV.
