Android TV Netflix-Style App

I want a polished on-demand video application for Android TV / Google TV that feels as slick and intuitive as Netflix, yet is completely driven from a standard D-Pad remote.

Core flow
• The app signs users in with a straightforward email-and-password form, stores credentials securely, then lands them on a modern, card-based catalogue.
• All content lives in my private PikPak cloud. The app must authenticate with PikPak (API or WebDAV), list the video files, and cache folder structure locally for fast browsing.
• Each file is matched on the fly with TMDb, IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes so posters, backdrops, cast info and ratings appear instantly in the UI.
• When a title is selected, playback starts in an embedded player—ExoPlayer or a comparable native engine—supporting H.264/H.265, external SRT/ASS subtitles, resume position and next-episode auto-advance.

UI & UX expectations
The interface should comply with Google’s Leanback design guidelines: smooth focus animations, proper row snapping, left/right navigation, long-press context actions and an in-app settings screen—no mouse or touch targets. Performance must stay fluid on 2 GB RAM devices.

Deliverables
- Release-ready APK for Android TV 9.0+
- Full, well-commented source code (Kotlin or Java)
- README covering PikPak credential setup, metadata API keys and build steps
- Brief video or GIF walkthrough proving remote-only navigation

I’ll test on a androidtv with Google TV and a Shield TV; if the app installs cleanly, connects to PikPak, displays enriched metadata from all three providers and streams without stutter, we’re good to sign off.
