The Hercules Player is an application that allows customers to download videos to their computer or device for offline playback, along with streaming playback of videos for online playback.

The new version of the app will be used on browser-based versions of the application, as well as wrapped in native code and used as the iOS, Android versions, leading to a single HTML5 codebase that covers all platforms. This bug hunt will test the iOS native client.

Contest Scope

The only functionality in scope for this bug hunt is as follows:

• Playback of assets, both from the server and downloaded
• Specific user accounts in the forum
• Scheduling recordings for: Episodes, Series, Movies
• Live TV playback from the Guide tab
• Any inconsistencies in the playback, including the scrub bar, info, CC, SAP, etc...
• The specific items listed below

It's VERY important that ALL user accounts in the forum be tested. The different user accounts are tied to different regions and backend hardware, so if playback works on one user account, it could not work at all on another. You are limited to only those accounts in the forum, no others

See the new log requirement below for this bug hunt
