• APP (3rd party app)
  • Set Enabled = On
  • Set Type = APP
  • Set Static IP = 0.0.0.0
  • Set Port = 9091
  • Set Profile = Off
  • Set Live = File
• Set Stream 1 = On
• Set Multicast = URL
• Set URL = the Android Intent URL for the app (may include deep links for specific functions in the app also)

Android Intent URLs are the following format:

android-app://PACKAGE_NAME#Intent;component=COMPONENT_TO_LAUNCH;end

Both the PACKAGE_NAME and COMPONENT_TO_LAUNCH names are required.  You can find these by looking at the ADB log output when manually starting any app.  You can also check the NetPlay Compatible Equipment List for commonly used URLs.

Deep links:

You can optionally include "extradata" in the app URLs to directly perform actions within the 3rd party app, such as playing a movie on Netflix. 

android-app://PACKAGE_NAME/DATA#Intent;component=COMPONENT_TO_LAUNCH;EXTRADATA;end

The format of EXTRADATA is

• i.VAR_NAME=VALUE;   (integers)
• S.VAR_NAME=VALUE;  (Strings)

DATA is usually a web url (http://host/path)

As there is no standard covering what values can be passed to different apps, Google is the best way to find information on what values are needed. 

For Netflix, here is an example

 In that case EXTRADATA is not used, but DATA is as below

http://www.netflix.com/watch/NETFLIXID           (NETFLIXID is a unique value per title)

Further information on the Android Intent URL formats can be found at Android developer docs
