EveryWord TV v0.3.0
The Fire TV app, carrying a real film.
v0.2.0 shipped the reader with five spoken fables. This build adds the
thing the project is actually about: Sintel, distributed by the Blender
Foundation under CC BY 3.0, playing full screen with the English
subtitles that came inside the film, lit one word at a time.
Nothing in those captions was written by us. The subtitle file is the
filmmakers'. Amazon Transcribe supplied only the timings and was never
asked what the words are, so the text on screen is identical, character
for character, to the file the film shipped with. 74 of its 75 words in
the sample cue anchored to a recognised word.
The film is inside the APK, which is why this is 67.6 MB where v0.2.0
was 41.7 MB. The reader works with the network unplugged.
Install:
adb connect <your Fire TV ip>:5555
adb install everyword-tv-v0.3.0.apk
Contains arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a and x86_64, so it installs on Fire TV
hardware as well as an emulator.
