Support external links to open videos in other apps directly. #102

Closed cncb-gh closed 3 years ago

cncb-gh commented 3 years ago

This adds external link support to open videos directly in other Android apps from the SageTV library. This is accomplished by renaming and importing a small "placeholder" video in the following format: "TITLE.ESCAPEDURL.exlink". The ESCAPEDURL can be a direct video link (deep link) or an app package name if direct links are not supported. ".exlink" needs to be added to "seeker/video_library_import_filename_extensions" in Sage.properties.

Note that for some reason the OpenGLRenderer is not showing the captions TextView which is what I use to show messages to the user. I have also included a Toast message for now for this reason.

@cncb-gh

Can you see if you can resolve the merge conflicts in the branch. You may need to update to the master branch from this repository. That should resolve the issue I was talking about with the player setting. Let me know if you are having issues with it, and I can take a stab.

Thanks, Josh

I think I was able to resolve the conflicts.
