Feature Requests

Have ideas for new features?

2 Feature Requests: dynamically add older items to feed & display feed item description by default

Submitted by elmro on Tue, 02/07/2012 - 13:09

Hello,

I love DoggCatcher. It is probably the only app that I continuously use on my Samsung Galaxy. There are two features I miss from Google Listen, though, that would make DoggCatcher *perfect* as far as my podcasting needs are concerned:

Tab for Audiobooks, virtual feed or playlist

Hi Eric,

First of all, thanks for a great App. I have used Doggcatcher on a daily basis for more than 2 years and have also participated in some beta testing. However for a long time I have just enjoyed the app without any needs to wish for any changes.

Choose WiFi-only or any data connection for each feed

It'd be great if you could prioritize certain feeds which update no matter what versus ones that only update when you're on Wifi. With data caps and throttling, this is an important feature.

Alphabetical sort of the feed list

The ability to sort the feeds list would be a great addition. Alphabetically is preferred

Thanks.

Video Playback Usability Enhancements

Submitted by x_hobbes on Sat, 01/28/2012 - 13:25

Would it be possible to make these enhancements to the video playback?
- Adjust how far back/forward a video skips when pressing the [<<]/[>>] buttons
- Separate the buttons from the timeline and each other

Make skip back/forward controls long-pressable

Would it be possible, when i long press these buttons, for DC to display something like this

< 5s >
< 10s >
< 30s >
< 1m >
etc

....where the <> chars above denote buttons which may be pressed repeatedly to skip varying amounts of recording time?

Do Not Download or List "News" Items in Feed

Submitted by biochip on Thu, 01/26/2012 - 13:40

Is there a way to set a feed to not download or list any text "news" items? I only use Doggcatcher to listen to audio podcasts, and it's a huge pain to wade through a bunch of new text items (and then go through and mark each one as done) in order to find the new audio entries.

Thanks.

Presto Support When Playing a Video as Audio

Submitted by joshpennington on Tue, 01/24/2012 - 20:56

I have no idea if there is a way this can be compatible, but it would be awesome if you could have Presto speed up the audio of a video when you select "Play as audio".

menu button customization and sizes on home screen

Submitted by artymarty on Tue, 01/24/2012 - 18:38

On the main screen there are the menu items:
FEEDS PLAYING AUDIO VIDEO NEWS

I use these buttons to navigate to various features, however in some circumstances (while driving, or in the workshop etc) its a bit hard to hit the button you want accurately, and even more so now as these buttons seem to be getting smaller as more are added....

Can it be possible to customize this section as follows:
1) Make the buttons bigger or smaller (as per the player controls)

[REQ] customize the feed icon

Submitted by yotzmach on Sun, 01/22/2012 - 09:37

Can be useful for feeds that have a generic icon or no icon at all.
Also useful for feeds where the icon is not displayed because of a bug in the feed or in doggcatcher (e.g., http://www.mevio.com/feeds/noagenda.xml)
