This is a short list what is still to be done for the Android port.

UI Movie

  • difficult to understand the arrows, because it is not separated from the main button. Maybe a split would be useful. Or another icon
  • Preview has a weird translucent bar, that is not useful.
  • Preview does not let one play the movie? WTF?
  • The codecs are displayed, but not the language for audio, right?
  • I like the egg, but users don't understand it. CF all forum posts.
  • Should we invert the lock and the fullscreen button?
  • Text on the top bar should be on the same line, IMVHO
  • The red color is very weird since the rest of the UI is orange.
  • ICS in fullscreen still shows the status bar (see Controls for system UI visibility in http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0.html#api ) SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE probably should be used.

UI Audio

  • When selecting the Artist tag, it does not list the albums (nor a
  "All album")
  • Same for the genre
  • It shows (xxx songs), under the name in Artist, but not xx albums
  • The main icon when there is no album art is aliased. Is it only my phone?

UI Main

  • Should the scanning small bar be on the top or the bottom? Now, it feels weird because it moves the items down.
  • The About section is light...
  • Sort by and Refresh should be on the same line, prefs/About in the other one.

UI Preferences

  • Root and Directories are still very weird to manage. No clue what to do.

Missing functionality

  • Subtitles track selection in fullscreen Yes Done
  • Subtitles blending in the GPU
  • Network URL opening Yes Done

Bugs

  • audio crashes (seems fixed by the AudioTrack module)
  • overlay behind the video sometimes...

Packaging

  • Prepare a Beta package.
