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:

• Create a feed using the 'add feed' action in the DoggCatcher menu
• Select 'virtual feed'
• 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
