YouTube, for example, has a dedicated feed which was built to be used
like this. It comes with some caveats though, like lacking enough
information about the items and returning a limited amount of them.
Nonetheless, a nice option for users that like speedy updates but don't
mind this issue.
Now only the subscriptions from the selected group by the user will be
loaded.
Also add an option to decide how much time have to pass since the last
refresh before the subscription is deemed as not up to date. This helps
when a subscription appear in multiple groups, since updating in one
will not require to be fetched again in the others.
renamed NewPipe's language into App language, and same for all the
concerning thing (keys, comments…)
we now call assureCorrectAppLanguage(CONTEXT) in activities needing it
instead of changeAppLanguage(getAppLocale(CONTEXT), RESOURCES)
changeAppLanguage becomes private.
Before, the direct value was given to the user, now it uses the parsed
date so we can match the device's language.
To get the relative time from the parsed dates, we use the PrettyTime
library.
Also introduces a debug option to check the service's original value.
* use Java I/O (classic way) on older android versions
* use Storage Access Framework on newer android versions (Android Lollipop or later)
* both changes have the external SD Card write permission
* add option to ask the save path on each download
* warn the user if the save paths are not defined, this only happens on the first NewPipe run (Android Lollipop or later)
* full support for Directory API (Android Lollipop or later)
* best effort to handle any kind errors (missing file, revoked permissions, etc) and recover the download
* implemented directory choosing
* fix download database version upgrading
* misc. cleanup
* do not release permission on the old save path (if the user change the download directory) under SAF api
* re-work finished mission database
* re-work DownloadMission and bump it Serializable version
* keep the classic Java IO API
* SAF Tree API support on Android Lollipop or higher
* add wrapper for SAF stream opening
* implement Closeable in SharpStream to replace the dispose() method
* do required changes for this API:
** remove any file creation logic from DownloadInitializer
** make PostProcessing Serializable and reduce the number of iterations
** update all strings.xml files
** storage helpers: StoredDirectoryHelper & StoredFileHelper
** best effort to handle any kind of SAF errors/exceptions
Main changes:
* correctly check the available space (CircularFile.java)
* misc cleanup (CircularFile.java)
* use the "Error Reporter" for non-http errors
* rewrite network state checking and add better support for API 21 (Lollipop) or higher
* implement "metered networks"
* add buttons in "Downloads" activity to start/pause all pending downloads, ignoring the queue flag or if the network is "metered"
* add workaround for VPN connections and/or network switching. Example: switching WiFi to 3G
* rewrite DataReader ¡Webm muxer is now 57% more faster!
* rewrite CircularFile, use file buffers instead of memory buffers. Less troubles in low-end devices
* fix missing offset for KaxCluster (WebMWriter.java), manifested as no thumbnails on file explorers
Download queue:
* remember queue status, unless the user pause the download (un-queue)
* semi-automatic downloads, between networks. Effective if the user create a new download or the downloads activity is starts
* allow enqueue failed downloads
* new option, queue limit, enabled by default. Used to allow one or multiple downloads at same time
Miscellaneous:
* fix crash while selecting details/error menu (mistake on MissionFragment.java)
* misc serialize changes (DownloadMission.java)
* minor UI tweaks
* allow overwrite paused downloads
* fix wrong icons for grid/list button in downloads
* add share option
* implement #2006
* correct misspelled word in strings.xml (es) (cmn)
* fix MissionAdapter crash during device shutdown
New Mp4Muxer + required changes:
* new mp4 muxer (from dash only) with this, muxing on Android 7 is possible now!!!
* re-work in SharpStream
* drop mp4 dash muxer
* misc changes: add warning in SecondaryStreamHelper.java,
* strip m4a DASH files to normal m4a format (youtube only)
Fix storage issues:
* warn to the user if is choosing a "read only" download directory (for external SD Cards), useless is rooted :)
* "write proof" allow post-processing resuming only if the device ran out of space
* implement "insufficient storage" error for downloads
* fix content length reading
* use float overflow. Expensive, double is used instead
* fix invalid cast after click the mission body
* use a list for maximum attemps (downloads)
* minor clean up (DownloadManager.java)
* dont pass SharedPreferences instace to DownloadManager
* use a switch instead of checkbox for cross_network_downloads
* notify media scanner after deleting a finished download
Post-processing infrastructure
* remove interfaces with one implementation
* fix download resources with unknow length
* marquee style for ProgressDrawable
* "view details" option in mission context menu
* notification for finished downloads
* postprocessing infrastructure: sub-missions, circular file, layers for layers of abstractions for Java IO streams
* Mp4 muxing (only DASH brand)
* WebM muxing
* Captions downloading
* alert dialog for overwrite existing downloads finished or not.
Misc changes
* delete SQLiteDownloadDataSource.java
* delete DownloadMissionSQLiteHelper.java
* implement Localization from #114
Misc fixes (this branch)
* restore old mission listeners variables. Prevents registered listeners get de-referenced on low-end devices
* DownloadManagerService.checkForRunningMission() now return false if the mission has a error.
* use Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK when launching an activity from gigaget threads (apparently it is required in old versions of android)
More changes
* proper error handling "infrastructure"
* queue instead of multiple downloads
* move serialized pending downloads (.giga files) to app data
* stop downloads when swicthing to mobile network (never works, see 2nd point)
* save the thread count for next downloads
* a lot of incoherences fixed
* delete DownloadManagerTest.java (too many changes to keep this file updated)
