Bobine for Android TV and Google TV

Bobine comes as an Android TV app: a dedicated APK (Bobine-TV) for boxes, HDMI sticks and TVs running Android TV or Google TV. It opens the big-screen interface, fully usable with the remote control, and plays the studio's classes without a mini PC.

PlatformFile
Android TV - Stable (V5.0.0)Bobine-TV-5.0.0.apk
Android TV - Beta (beta)Bobine-TV-beta.apk
Android TV - Canary (canary)Bobine-TV-canary.apk

What the Android TV app does

  • Dedicated Bobine-TV package (ID com.bobine.app.tv), separate from the tablet APK.
  • Leanback launcher integration with a 16:9 banner; no touchscreen required.
  • Opens straight on the big-screen interface (/kiosk), driven with the D-pad: arrows, center key and back.
  • Screen-saver prevention while playing.
  • External storage: a FAT32 or exFAT USB drive or SSD is detected to hold the classes outside the box's internal memory.

32-bit and 64-bit boxes

The Android TV package is universal: it installs on boxes with a 64-bit system as well as on those with a 32-bit system (armeabi-v7a ABI), as is the case for many Chromecast with Google TV devices and Xiaomi boxes or sticks despite their 64-bit processor. Android 14 (API 34) or later is required.

Installing the APK on the TV

Download Bobine-TV-<version>.apk from the table below, then move it to the TV with a USB drive and a file manager, wirelessly with Send Files to TV or Downloader, or through ADB on the local network. Allow the installation of unknown apps in the TV settings.

adb connect <tv_ip>:5555
adb install Bobine-TV-<version>.apk

Frequently asked questions

Does Bobine work on Android TV?

Yes, from Android 14 (API 34): a dedicated package, Bobine-TV, installs on Android TV and Google TV boxes and sticks, in 32-bit as well as 64-bit ARM.

Do I need a mini PC in addition to the Android TV box?

Not to play on the TV screen: the app embeds its own server. A mini PC remains useful for a dedicated 24/7 appliance with several screens.

Why does installation fail with INSTALL_FAILED_NO_MATCHING_ABIS?

Older copies of the APK did not cover 32-bit systems. Download Bobine-TV again from this page.
