Virtual feeds

A virtual feed uses a folder on the SD card as content for a feed. E.g., you can place audio files from an audio book in a folder and play them like a regular feed.

Steps to creating a virtual feed:

• Slide out the navigation drawer from the left side of the screen
• Select 'Subscribe'
• Select the advanced tab (all the way to the right)
• At this point you have two options
• Option 1 - "Choose an existing directory"
  • Press Choose an existing directory
  • Locate folder (using a file manager) on local SD card or Exrernal SD Card E.g. /sdcard/DoggCatcher or /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/audiobook
  • Press the 'Select current directory' button
  • On DoggCatcher's feeds screen, scroll down to the new virtual feed, long press & Update the feed.
    Flag all the items as new (this will make them appear in the playlist)
• Option 2 - "Let DoggCatcher creat a directory"
  • Press 'Let DoggCatcher create a directory' a dialog box will appear indicating which directory was created
  • Place your media files in the created directory
• Return to the feeds screen
• Update the feed
• Flag all the items as new (this will make them appear in the playlist).
• When you are playing files in a virtual feed, it is often useful to change
  the active playlist to be virtual by doing the following:
• Open the audio playlist (select Audio from the Feeds screen), tap the Playlist button, and select "Virtual
  Feeds."
