Player intent #45

hi! It would be nice, if DroidUPnP would provide a player intent to play content from within other apps on a remote device.

done with commit 36f934a419865b73d80e71babf856a3a60e4ba8b

That is not what I meant. When opening a media file, DroidUPnP should be offered in the list of media players to play it on a remote device.

trishika commented 9 years ago

Ok, I put that into the TODO list :)

Great! The problem is, that I have to move videos into an indexed folder to play it via DroidUPnp on a remote device. The folder of my podcatcher isn't indexed, and it shouldn't. An alternative to an player intent would be an internal filebrowser to select the media files to be played. But with an intent, any other filebrowser could be used to select these.

Have a look at #70 for playback by folder (including external sd card) I also implemented a playback intent, but it only works for web URIs so far, not for local files.
