REQ 1. Our media rss feeds are Atom, so need to convert from Atom to RSS 2.0 - need a web app to do that.
Sample rss feed:
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:opensearch= "http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/" xmlns:media= "http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" xml:lang="en-us"> <title>plugandplay: Featured Videos</title> <link href="http://plugandplay.mirocommunity.org/listing/featured/?" rel="alternate"> </link><link href="http://plugandplay.mirocommunity.org/feeds/featured" rel="self"> </link><id>http://plugandplay.mirocommunity.org/listing/featured/?</id> <updated>2013-07-15T11:56:30+00:00</updated><opensearch:totalresults> 555</opensearch:totalresults><opensearch:startindex>0</opensearch:startindex> <opensearch:itemsperpage>30</opensearch:itemsperpage><entry> <title>BUYRAL - Professional Clicking</title> <link href="http://plugandplay.mirocommunity.org /video/6712/buyral-professional-clicking" rel="alternate"> </link><updated>2013-07-15T11:56:30+00:00</updated><id> http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/tIwH7ptHCWc</id> <summary type="html"> <table>
REQ 2. Look at configuration of java cms Liferay's asset publisher so that it outputs full articles in media rss format, and aggregates all content types (users and multiple scopes).
REQ 3. Make the mobile app with no extra functionality - simply to load up and the html5 media player (OpenPlayer). Inside is just a web page.
Use android web app creator (this one? http://www.appsgeyser.com/)
REQ 4. Look at how to add playlist just by tilting the phone. Will it work?
