Per-platform playback architecture

Agora has no tvOS SDK, so the playback layer picks an engine per platform.

  • tvOS: HLS playback via react-native-video, because the Agora SDK is unavailable on tvOS.
  • Android TV: the native Agora SDK, matching the live-streaming stack used across the Jeyad platform.
  • A single React Native app surface over two different underlying playback engines.

10-foot UI

  • D-pad and remote navigation.
  • Focus states and layout sized for the living-room screen.
  • QR device linking to pair the TV with a Jeyad account.

Engineering Notes

  • React Native across tvOS and Android TV from one codebase.
  • Playback abstraction that keeps the platform difference out of the feature code.
  • Shares the Jeyad platform's content model and live-streaming backend.
