# IPTVnator v0.17.0 🚀

This release brings a fresh look, smoother navigation, and several improvements across M3U, Xtream/Stalker, and the general UI. Plus, a major internal restructuring that sets the stage for faster development in the future.

## What's Changed

### M3U Improvements
* Display of the current EPG program directly inside the channel list
* Updated look & feel for the EPG sidebar
* Completely reworked UI for multi-EPG view
* Visual refinements to the remote control mode
* Ability to switch channels by typing the channel number on your keyboard

### Xtream Codes / Stalker Portal
* Unique look & feel for Stalker (STB) and Xtream Codes (XC) interfaces
* More compact sidebar → more space for channels and categories
* Added option to refresh the Xtream playlist

### General Updates
* New empty start page with a redesigned header
* Auto-refresh status indicator in playlist overview
* New option to reuse a single MPV instance when switching channels (faster zapping & less resource usage)

## Under the Hood

A lot changed behind the scenes to make future development easier and more stable:
* Fully restructured repository into a monorepo, which is an important foundation for upcoming features
* Updated dependencies across the project
* Improved i18n and translation structure

Note: PWA and Docker images will follow shortly in separate builds.
