Hi Nathan,
we currently don't intend to release on cydia. It was quite some hard
work to get this to iTunes.
We are currently discussing to add the custom URL field to the app
again. We thought it would be more user-friendly (settings are tested,
no entering of complicated URLs, etc.) this way and we hoped to get more
feedback about current adopters. But the feedback from several people
was that they would like to have this custom URL field again.
To overcome the 3G issue we want to add a caching of episodes. You
should be able to download the files while you are on wifi and can watch
the even if your are offline. But I cannot tell you when this feature
will be released.

I'm glad to see this app available but I must say I prefer the
previous version that allows custom URL configuration and 3G
streaming. Would it be possible to release that version to cydia? I
don't necessarily want our videos available to anyone who wants to see
them.

Hi,
the University of Onabrück is proud to announce that the Matterhorn 2GO App is
now finally accepted for iOS too. After some month of additional development we
have accomplished that the app is now fulfilling Apples guidelines. Now you can
finally watch lecture recordings on recent iPhones, iPads or iPod touch.
For general information about the Android and iOS app you should visit our
website [1]. Or you can go directly to the iTunes app store [2].
The Android and iOS versions are nearly identical, but the iOS version has the
restriction that videos can only watched on wifi [3].
Currently only recordings from Osnabrück are available there, but we are open
to add additional Matterhorn servers to the list. If you want us to add your
Matterhorn Server:
1. Be aware that your recordings become public available. We currently don't
support a login, so if you have used the authentification in Matterhorn 1.2+
only your public recordings will be available.
2. Your Matterhorn server must be reachable from everywhere. If it's restricted
to your local network only we can not accept it.
3. You must use RTMP-streaming. For an unkown reason the iOS version currently
only works with streaming (the Android version is fine with progressive
download too).
4. We recommend that you use the "encode media in different qualities"
workflow, as we would then use the low bandwith videos, which load much more reliable
than the default size.
If all conditions are okay for you please send me a mail with the URL of your
engage server, the name under which we should list it in the app and your
contact details. We will check then if everything works as expected and add it
to the list of available servers.
Regards
Rüdiger
