AndroVDR vs Immich Uploader
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
AndroVDR
AndroVDR is an Android application to control the Linux based VDR.Features:remote controlviews for channels, timer, recordings, EPGsearch in EPG (epgsearch plugin in VDR required)display channel logos (not included)adjustable text size2 different layouts1 additional, user definable, layoutlayout change by "swipe" (Android 2.1)control with gesturesvolume control with HW-Keyscontrol multiple VDR’sSSH tunneled connection over internetWOL over WLAN or internet (long click on power-on)App2SDLive TV, needs streamdev server and an external player, such as VPlayerNote: This is a fork of the original app (were development stopped at v1.5 in 2012). It contains some adjustments to make the app working again with CM13+ (see this Forum thread) – and currently it seems to work at least up to Android 8.Though being a bit old, it seems to be in high demand and favored over newer apps, so I’ve made the exception to add it to this repo nevertheless, on special request by @STP_KITT. Updates are rather unlikely, though.
Immich Uploader
Immich Uploader is a small app that discovers media files on your Android device, then uploads them to your Immich instance. The app can be configured to remove media files from your device after successful updates. This can be configured individually by type of file (Photo, Screenshot, Download, or Others). The app needs INTERNET permissions for the upload as well as access to your media files, which it will explicitly ask for.
