rsAuthScope not set: URL Validator not suitable for non public DNS names

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,
thanks for providing this nice app!

I stumbled upon a little problem when trying to connect to the Recording 
Service. I referenced the server by its DNS name. But unfortunately there is 
the org.apache.commons.validator.routines.UrlValidator class used for checking 
syntax for public domain names. This verification fails for the network 
internal DNS name. And it does without any notification to the user.

When I entered the IP address of the server, everything works fine.

-----  ServerRequest.java ln421:
private static AuthScope getRsAuthScope() {
        if (rsAuthScope == null) {
            if (urlValidator.isValid(ServerConsts.REC_SERVICE_URL)) { //--> false for my DNS
-----

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Enter any non public domain name, like "http://my-home-computer" for 
"Recording Service URL"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The connection shall be possible anyway. Or at least a error message should be 
shown.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Android 4.2.2 AVD

Fixed in Branch 1.1

removed the commons-validator validator library and changed it to 
android.webkit.URLUtil.isValidUrl  

Should work now :-)

Is this still not working in Version 1.0.1?

I could use some Feedback, because i have no possiblity to test that.
