Announcing uidroid for Android

[mvallevand]

I am once again happy to announce a new client for NextPVR this time on Android. The client is called uidroid. Unlike sub's Android client the client has the same look and feel as NextPVR.exe for Windows. Similar functionality is available on Android using Kodi with knewc but this custom solution requires less memory and is easier to configure. If you prefer a modern Android GUI, then you should probably be using sub's app.

This client is standalone and uses the ExoPlayer player on Android for direct non-transcoded playback. ExoPlayer is powerful client and it keeps getting better.

If addition to NextPVR Live TV and Recordings you will be able to access your Video, Music and Picture Libraries including playback of mkv, mp4, webm, mp3 and FLAC files. The new AC-4 format audio is also support for ATSC 3.0.

To get started the Android apk is available at https://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.ph...#pid562489 and it will need to be sideloaded. Currently note this is a debug build and it includes extra logging.

For usage notes please check the information posts in the new support forum for this app https://forums.nextpvr.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=67 if you have any questions not answered by those posts please open a new thread unless it is specifically related to the thread.

This client is another project I created to support sub. As a result if you haven't made a donation of some kind in support of NextPVR the app will stop working after 7 days. If you need more time without donating you will need to completely uninstall the app and install it again. Contact sub via PM to get the required key information.

Once again thanks to VCR58 and BrettB,for testing and comments and of course to sub for making NextPVR and the UI Client interface possible.

"If you've donated to the NextPVR project, you should have received an email with a paypal transaction number. You can use this on your Settings->About page to register that donation."
Note that this transaction number is different to the one that Paypal gives you when you make the donation.

If it doesn't accept the paypal transaction number, you can try your paypal email address and it'll try to find matching transaction.
