Timescape EDK (with Sample RSS plugin/ XDA)

Sony Ericsson has released the EDK for extending the default timescape and music app.
But i could not find any developers working on it.So i thought to post a thread here to bring to the notice of developers who are ready help in bringing more plugins for us.
The details about EDK and the sample guides/Code available at http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wportal/devworld/technology/android/edk/overview?cc=gb&lc=en
and sony ericsson developers are ready to help at google discussions at http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/8b3bf9a94628543d
With the sample code i was able to build an apk for RSS plugin which is working for me.It would be great if any one with rooted device upload screens for the plugin
Update1:The RSSPlugin_1.apk now loads and show images on the Timescape tiles for RSS feeds
Update2:I have added option to add XDA forum in the options of RSS plugin.
All you need to inout is the forum ID in text box.
Ex:For Xperia Play android development would be 1093 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1093
This is the only way i could think to get XDA..dont blame me if it doesn't work.The forum URL you are trying to add should end with f=XXXX
Update3:Changed XDA url to show Last changed threads instead of Last created Threads
PSlease remove previous version and reinstall.

The problem with these TimeScape plugins is that the way they format the information, only relatively small updates make sense. Tweets, Facebook statuses, and that kind of thing. Richer content is off limits.

I agree with you but plugins "GMail subject","Read Event from calender","Weather Plugin" etc would be useful.It's just my idea...
Of course, those are great ideas. But I think it's good to frame for what can be done and what can not.
Great plugin ..you made my day..thanks

Hi there, am in a trial of Stellio and awaiting my android wear device to play with it properly.
Being super critical here (apologies in advance) my only comment would be to tweak the phone homescreen widget a bit.
I love the options we are given with poweramp like adjustable background transparency, lots of different themes etc and I think with the clean and well layout design of stellio, the widget just lets it down a little.
But apart from that am loving your work!
pretty good app, but in the wear version of the song browser, its missing the album list after you select artist, it just goes to a list of all the songs by that particular artist. The addition of album list by artist as well as perhaps grid view in the phone browser would make this my go-to over poweramp.
Now my favourite music app.
Top Right conflicts a little with mini launcher, which I have in the top right position, but it's just one extra swipe needed.
love controlling music from my lg g watch:laugh:

Thanks for suggestion! I added it to my todo list. Very likely that i implement both suggestions.
Can anyone make a few screenshots of app on a rounded screen (moto360) ?
Hi.
Player does't work with Xperia Z Ultra (4.4.4), can't find any music files and force closes even if I directly choose the music folder (on SDCard1). Moto360 plugin also does FC every 10-15 seconds.
Очень жаль...
WBR, Draco.
I'm loving the look of this application! But how will it look on a Moto 360 smartwatch? Well, guess we'll see once it arrives :]

Tried to take screenshots using adb but the result is just the full screen square version instead of a cropped 360 version. I figured the goal was to see the layout so i just took pictures instead. Theres a bit of blur cuz its been resized from 16mp to 480 width :laugh: if you want the bigger ones i can post those also.
The link doesn't seem to work.. How can I get this app?
Been looking for an android wear music player that can do fast forwarding/rewind or scrubbing.. Does this support that?
Gone?

I've been using Stellio for awhile now. SOLID! AWESOME!
Any links to apk?
Or the owner purposely stopped distributing?

please at least give a few actual arguments and tell them how you'd like the icon to look like..

I'm sorry but where did I state that it was garbage? Seems like you're the one needing to give factual arguments, not me.
As for the icon, I think if a developer wants users to use their app instead of countless other apps that do similar things, they should be original and differentiate not sraight up copy something from other apps. In the case of this app, seems like they worked hard on it and I congratulate them, hopefully they will come up with a nice original icon that better fits their app.
I change this icon in the future. I'm not a graphic designer and so far i'm working on more important things...
I do not steal, I found this icon on google

Been using this for a couple weeks now and its a great music player. Since there is no native support for fetching album art I used one of the apps from the app store and now I have everything I need. It even works with my Pebble watch!
I hope you keep this thread updated with any new updates the app gets. I was following the thread in the Moto G forum.

How can I fast-forward or seek to a specific part of an audio I'm listening to? This is more relevant if my phone had to be rebooted or my player crashes while I'm listening to an audio book. When I restart the app, I may not want to start from the beginning but from the place I've stopped earlier.
The KitKat player had a progress bar that I could drag to a point where I want the player to start playing from. I'm unable to do that from the Lollipop Music Player.

I used it a month ago i was not able to seek but if u hold the next or previous track buttons u can fast forward or rewind
As i said i used it a month before things may hav changed now
don't make a girl a promise you can't keep - cortana
Add a seek bar please. Fast forwarding isn't precise enough.
Was fooled by the yellow download button, damn I'm stupid!

Plz add ripple effect(while touching buttons in lollipop) instead of the blue button which damages design of UI
This issue is faced in kitkat devices
