Who We Are • Ben Bedinghaus • Team Lead, Implementer, Tester • Jason Daniels • Configuration Manager, Implementer, Tester • Ryan Ware • Liaison, Implementer, Tester
The Project • Mobile application supporting SMIL • XML markup language “Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language” defines multimedia presentations • Playback of SMIL files • Creation and editing of SMIL files • Sending and receiving of SMIL files from one cell phone to another
The Platform • Why Android? • Java • Windows support • Ample documentation • Eclipse plugin & emulator
Player Implementation • File Types • text (txt) • image (jpg, png, gif, bmp) • audio (mp3) • video (mp4, 3gp) • Controls • Play / Pause • Previous / Next
Send/Receive Implementation • Send • Application zips XML file with referenced media files; uploads ZIP file to FTP server; adds new database entry. • Receive • Application thread created at startup queries database every 5 seconds for new SMIL files. • Application downloads and unzips file; removes file from FTP server and database entry; notifies user.
Send/Receive Implementation • Server: cscdb.nku.edu • FTP server • MySQL database • PHP scripts for interacting with database • send (add database entry) • receive (query database for messages) • delete (remove database entry after receipt)
Difficulties • Playback Performance • Player creates a new thread for every audio and video file during playback. • Lower audio playback thread priority. • Sleep video thread every quarter of a second.
Task Partition • Ben Bedinghaus • Manager(Send/Receive/File browser) • Jason Daniels • Player (Media Playback/Control) • Ryan Ware • Composer (Editing/Saving/Parsing)
Software ConfigurationManagement • SVN Google Code • Google ID with a supplied google password. • Subclipse • Commiting, Updating, Comparing • Microsoft Word (Track Changes feature) • SRS Document
Communication • First used • That was messy, used Gmail. • Congregated every Sunday, minus a few. • Superbowl • Easter • … when we felt like it.
