Kais Chebbi

Founder and engineer, My TV Player

Этот профиль написан на английском языке.

Kais Chebbi builds My TV Player: the Windows and Xbox clients, the web console, and the services behind them. The notes published here come out of that work rather than out of a content calendar, which is why they carry counts from real files instead of round numbers.

Every article states how each of its claims was arrived at. A claim taken from a specification names the section; a claim taken from a measurement names the sample and the day it was counted. Nothing is published until a reviewer has signed it off, and the reviewer is named on the article.

Направления работы

  • Playlist import

    The M3U and provider login import path: the parser that reads extended M3U attributes, the credential check against the provider's server, and the de-duplication of entries that a playlist lists more than once.

  • Guide data

    XMLTV ingestion and curation, including the per-region grabbers, the parser repairs that keep a malformed feed from taking a household's whole guide down, and the channel-id normalization that joins a provider's ids to a guide's.

  • Playback

    The libVLC-backed player in the Windows and Xbox clients: the stream watchdog, source failover, and the recording scheduler that books from the guide.

  • Platform

    The identity, catalog and metadata services, the household sync model that keeps favorites and resume points consistent across devices, and the operator console that runs them.
