[mythtv-users] MythTV Player 1.0 ready for testing on Android

[Daniel Frey]

This is an alpha release, however, barring any glaring issues, it will be
pushed to production pretty quickly.

This was cross-posted in the G+ Community setup for testing the app:

Mythtv Player 1.0 Alpha is ready for testing.

Just like when you registered for this community the first time, please
click the MythTV Player Beta Program link in the About this Community box.

You need to be on Android 4.+.

Here are some key features already implemented:
- View your recorded programs
- View your movies
- Globally search your recordings (movies coming soon)
- Queue a recording or movie for HLS Transcoding
- Launch an external player, if you so desire (we recommend VLC for Android)
- Material Design Theme

What is coming:
- Android TV Support (It is already in there, but I need to refactor the
code into a single APK and upload it into the play store for it to take
effect)
- Global search include movies
- Chromecast support

Once you accept the Beta Program, go to the link to the Play Store in the
About this Community box and install the app.

There are a few known issues.  After watching a stream, if you don't press
the back button, it crashes if you leave it on that screen.  There is also
an issue getting content to play from a secondary backend.

Please take a look and let me know what you think and if you have any
issues.

Unless there are any glaring issues, I am going to push this one pretty
quickly to the production release.
