A digital media provider focused on multi-platform streaming approached Oodles to develop a unified application for Android TV, Firestick, and smartphones. The client aimed to improve streaming quality and user control across devices. To address their requirements, a scalable video playback app with IR remote support and content tunneling was designed.
