Works with Android Stock Browser and Firefox Android Browser
I had Added this to the
wiki but have removed it pending resolution of the following and specifically the ability to select media type on online sources add with the stock browser.
Suggestion: Is there anyway to grey out the Thumbnail URL box in Online Sources Add/Edit when Atom or Webresource is selected. Currently looks like the field is available but it cannot be selected.
Suggestion: Online Sources: Increase the space between the right hand Add/Edit/Remove buttons. They are too hard to select by touch on my little 7" android tablet. EDIT: This is an Andriod Firefox problem. it displays with a smaller font than the stock browser and ignores the space between the buttons even if the Firefox text size is set to Medium or Large. The Stock Android Browser works fine.
Suggestion: Online Sources Add: When touching a line to enter (source URL, Display name, or ThumbURL) using Android Firefox the line positions itself just above the keyboard. Be nice to move it up just a bit so the bottom line of the box is visible. Also the Source type box displays a funny symbol instead of a down arrow but otherwise works fine.
The Stock Android Browser is erratic. First, the Source Type box cannot be selected. This is a bug. It is stuck at Online RSS/Atom feed. Also If source URL is selected first it highlites and centers the sourceURL line in the middle of the upper space with a flashing cursor which works fine, but other times and for other lines (Display name, or ThumbURL) the line does not get highlited and it only centers to the middle of the upper space after the first character is entered on the keyboard.
Suggestion: Online Sources Add: "Other Web Resources" should read "Web Resource"
Suggestion: Online Sources Heading text: "and cached for a period of time." should read "analysed and then cached for future use." My understanding is that once a source is analysed by ffmpeg and its attributes cached, it will remain in the cache permanently so that it is not necessary to run ffmpeg again when refreshing or or using the feed.
Suggestion: Various Buttons on Android Touch Device: This may be an Android problem rather than th UI but when I press the Enabled box too long, I get a "Save Image" popup; And if I press the Access Box too long, nothing happens (I think it should open the popup box same as a short touch does); same thing with the add/edit/remove buttons. I think the action should be the same for both long and short touches but perhaps this is an Android limitation.
Suggestion: Online Sources Add/Edit Popup Box: If the screen is zoomed out and moved right to create bigger Add/Edit boxes for touching, the popup box Positions itself primarily to the right of the sources list rather than centered on the sources list as it does if the screen is not zoomed. This then requires one to drag the whole screen including the window to the center. This happens with both Android Stock and Firefox and I assume this is a browser problem.
Suggestion: Online Sources Add/Edit Popup boxes: The X box at the upper right is close to the edge of the box window which makes it hard to select, so if the X could be moved a little to the left it would be free of the right edge and more selectable.
Hope that helps.
