An event name does not identify a single channel or language. The useful viewing request includes the competition, fixture/session, feed and region.

A receiver plugin is not a general Linux desktop package. An Android APK or Windows executable is not a native Linux player.

Platform to identify: the Linux distribution, desktop and player version
