Settings
Open Settings from the button at the top of the library (press Up from the first row of chats to reach the header). Up and Down move between rows, OK changes or opens one, and Back returns to the library.
Out of the box VueGram shows your groups and channels, and only their videos. Two switches widen that. Both are off by default, and both are stored on the TV only.
Show people
Off (default): the library lists only groups and channels.
On: the library also lists your private chats with people, and your Saved Messages. Bots are never listed.
The library reloads by itself when you go back to it.
Show messages
Off (default): a chat shows only its videos, as a grid.
On: a chat shows all its messages, newest first, as a list: text, photos, videos and files. In groups, each message shows who sent it.
- OK on a video plays it, like in the grid. Hold OK for the same menu (mpv, from the beginning, watched).
- OK on a photo opens it full screen. Left and Right move to the chat's other photos; Back closes it.
- OK on a text message shows the whole text.
- The search field searches every message in the chat, not only videos.
The switch applies to the next chat you open.
TIP
Turning a switch off again brings back the default view. Nothing is changed in Telegram either way.
Check for updates
Asks GitHub for a newer VueGram right away, instead of waiting for the automatic check. See Updates.
Last crash report
Shown only if VueGram closed unexpectedly. OK shows what happened: the VueGram and Android versions, the TV model and the technical details. It stays on the TV; VueGram never sends it anywhere. If you report a problem, you can copy it into your report, or delete it from here.
Log out
Signs this TV out of Telegram. VueGram asks first, then starts again at the login screen. Your watch history, pinned and hidden chats and settings stay on the TV; to use VueGram again, scan a new QR code.
