I ahve a hava platinum HD it will "sling" video to like 1 internet connection and 2 locals (I think, dont hold me to these numbers) I know it takes more connections than the comperably priced slingbox, I got mine used on fleabay for like 50$ it would be nice to controll my 500+ channel 250 hours SA2 tivo hak'd to the ma'x, and Id love to serve it up to my g1 in a long line or anywhere else I get bored, which is often.
one exists for the maemo hildon nokia N800 so maybe it wouldnt be a difficult port, it would be very cool and these boxes unlike the sling are very cheap, if HD is just 50$ imagine the deals you could find on a standard def unit, Id also like to see an xbox port of the same player, but thats a whole other discussion board, as it is it streams to PC, smartphone by MS, and windows media and xbox360(i think) so the standard is there to be sniffed if that helps any...

im in the same boat. i got a hava player a few months back, streamed it great to my old dash. then i got the g1. monsoon said they wont even start to develop a player until they watch the android market for a while to gauge interest..
i hope sling is getting their app out soon.... the petition is only growing
cool Im not the only one
I looked at prices and specs of slings and havas and the hava seemed to be the hands down winner...
if hava wont do it maybe somebody will R.E. it and we will get a hava player for anything we want, thats the reason HAVA needs to do it before the demand gets big, or somebody will want to stream the hava to sumthin they have thats not supported and do it themselves...
that almost sounded like a threat, but it wasn't....
bhang
edit:
an xbox version would be nice too....
dont need it. just install orb onto your pc where you normally watch your hava, and install opera browser on your android device. Set the default stream to 3gp and you can download a stream file that is about 700mb. Works great on my droid, but unfortunately the default media player does not use the full screen. The audio and vid is still great quality and the orb interface (mycast.orb.com) has a great interface for choosing the station you want to stream. I prefer it to the virtual controller of hava actually.

Can you explain how orb changes the channel of the ricochet that's connected to the hava? Thanks

Has sold me on android for my next phone.
Now if WM7 gets Zune support...
I've had a Hava for around 2 years now, they say early next year, look for the app a year after that... They rarely hit target dates.
Unofficial Hava Player for Android: It's called Testtube
sites.google.com/site/overvoltagesoft/home/testtube
It's still a little rough around the edges, but it's great someone took it upon themselves to do this.
Spread the word .

Thank you for this!!!! Just got my At&t Nexus and was thinking about my Hava player... I bought the app on my Iphone and loved it. This is going to be great... will install and give it a shot tonight. Assuming this works over 3G which will be a great advantage to the iphone player
TestTube Android HAVA Player
Search for TestTube on Market. I have a G1 and TestTube works great as a HAVA player on my phone. Setup was a little tricky. I had to port forward port 1778 on my router to my HAVA device. Other tricky piece of the setup was making sure I had the correct HAVA remote control code.
can not find the software anyplace....
Has anyone seen were it went to
I've been using testube for a while, using it for my titanium hd. I just heard that Monsoon Multimidea released the Vulkano app across many platforms and it's backwards compatible with the hava devices as well (not just the new vulkano devices). Its a free app, and though I havent used it yet, its seems just like what we've wanted.
Fellow iphone users have mentioned to me that the Vulkano app does infact work with the old hava devices.

OK. So yesterday I watched this hilarious link on the Apple Iphone4 on my computer.
Hitler mad with Steve Jobs
I sent this link to my friend as a text message to his iphone 3G which is upgraded to the IOS4 now.
Lo and behold, when he clicked on the link, the flash video was playing on this Iphone 3G.
I tried the link on my HTC Pure, it brought up Opera and simply gave me the message that I need to upgrade to Flash 10. Yeah right.... There is no Flash 10 for the PPC platform.
WTF
Because your friends iphone saw the link as a youtube video and ran it through their special iyoutube player to watch it. Where on your HTC you have opera and it doesn't really support youtube without plugins. I would try skyfire, or just use your own youtube app. WM youtube apps 100 times better the the iphone youtube low resolution app. So when he ran you link, the virtual steve jobs appeared and rerouted his link to play in youtube, where as is always true with windows, it does what you tell it to do. You told it to open a link in opera, and thats what it did. I persoanlly don't want the CEO of HTC to be deciding what app I open what with. It really all depends on how much spoon feeding you want your phone to do. If you want to not think about anything and have it just work or not work, go iphone. If you want to work on it and tinker with it to make anything work, WM's you choice.
Yeah. Emailed it to myself and it worked fine on my EVO... Looks like Apple only "Always has a leg up" only on you. ;-)
this is not a youtube video...
It is Vimeo.
and it ran it through the quicktime player.

No, they obviously just have an app that plays a veriety of streaming sites. I dont know why you think its a big deal.
edit: ahh there you go see what a 5 second google search can do: Vimeo uses HTML 5 as well as flash http://www.macworld.com/article/145836/2010/01/vimeo_html5.html

Not really. I hear Android has a flash player.... not that I would know or anything.
Vimeo has a special version of the website for iPhone/iPad. It looks up User Agent; and if it finds out iPhone is used, it brings up a compatible version of the site. Many website do this, especially for iPhone because it is popular and doesn't support flash.
The video here was .mp4 for iphone as it is nativity supported.
http://vimeo.com/blog:265
Also Vimeo has a version for Android, while Youtube has mobile version for almost every device.
P.S. If you use Firefox you can change your User Agent with User Agent Switcher for example.
So what is the user agent for the iphone?
i'll stick it on my Opera for WM and see if it works!

Once upon a time I remarked that websites will change to accommodate the iphone/ipad's non-flash OS and not the other way around, much to everyone's disbelief. I guess I see that happening now.

http://www.veoh.com/iphone/ You can do this on your pc also without having to download bloated Veoh app.If you using Dolphin HD go to browser settings and change "user agent" to ipad or iphone restart Dolphin,after that any site you visit will automatically take you to iphone site.
I snagged the bitbop beta app.

why do you need the IPHONE URL? I am running a modified version of FLASH and I just go to www.veoh.com and it works fine playing flash video..
$10 dollars a month and they STILL show you commercials? That is beyond ridiculous. You can get an entire netflix subscription for less with zero commercials.
Update on this..this app is well worth 10 bucks if you like to watch current shows (Glee, Family Guy, etc.). Being able to save the shows to your phone is sweet! Quality is fantastic (running CM 6.1 official) and the app scales with Restoggle.
I caught up on the last 3 episodes of "Terriers" and am in the process of watching the entire second season of "The League" right now.
It doesn't seem to limit how many shows you can download either and its all commercial free. If this app continues to add fresh content (ie "Justified" in January) to the already extensive list of better-than-basic cable channels, $10 bucks is a great value for being able to save and watch directly from my EVO.
Apps:
1.TIKL: Walkie Talkie App that works on 3g/4g and WIFI
2. Tango: Best Video Calling App that works better then QIK and fring as well as cross platform to iphone on 3g
3. Websharing: Awesome wifi file transfer that allows you to use 3g and wifi to share files from your phone to computer including, cutting,pasting upload delete.
4. Printer Share (Not Free but worth buying): Great Wifi printer app that lets you print anything you want off your phone..
5. Tune in Radio: Web Radio as well as streaming your local FM Radio Stations!!
6. Shazamm Encore: Awesome Music Identifier by listening to the song.
7. Slingplayer Mobile: If you have a slingbox this allows you to watch your cable box anywhere you go as well as records shows and what not
Games:
1. Trap: Jezzball Clone however more fun with power ups and items, so addicting!!!
2. Rat's Retaliation: Perfect Clone Of "Rodents Revenge"
3.Drums: Best Drum Set ive used on the market for free.
4. Xpiano: Awesome Full piano app
5. Chips Advanced: Chips Challenge For GBA Emulator, which i posted far back on the last page of games and apps.
These are my favorite free apps and they take me back to Microsofts Entertainment Pack, gotta love those games.
Have Fun with my recommendations!!

I second TIKL. Use it all the time.
Also, X Construct is a really fun, challenging game.
Your missing angry birds!
I need a fruit ninja support group.
I know I thought angry birds and fruit ninja were a given.. also I might add one more however needs some bugs worked out I recconebd. ZUMA REVENGE THE FREE ONE ITS LEGIT!!! SO AWESOME!

Heytell works really well. Its similar to TIKL but can be used across phone platforms.
Soundhound works much better than shazam.
i've been trying to find a file sharing program similar to websharing that you have listed but the exact opposite. i want to view files on my pc with my phone ive tried all with no luck that i could find
Check out DropBox. It is pretty cool and might do what you want.

I'm not sure dropbox can stream videos. That's the main thing I would like to use. I've tried orb and it would setup correctly but the phone wouldnt see it
Spiderman HD and Stunt Jet Cars are two best games I played so far and they play and look more like PS2 games.
Oh and NewsRoom is the app that I use the most.You can read tech and other news feeds real eazy.

I haven't gotten it to work yet, but I think that VLC has some promise for streaming media.
DropBox is great for just sharing files.
As far as other stuff I've found...
If you are an MMO junkie, there is Pocket Legends of course to get your mobile fix. But to check in with your friends, Ventriloid (free Ventrilo client) is a MUST have.
Until Skype gets their act together, check out ooVoo - does great video chat and has a desktop client! The paid version lets you do up to 6 way video conferences.
PLEASE help me find these games

I prefer TiKL over HeyTell. HeyTell is not realtime. HeyTell is not real PTT. It's got a purtier UI though.

You really shouldn't mention being able to get apps for free. A paid app is paid to compensate the developer and even if you aren't directly to the pirated app you are supporting it which goes against everything these forums stand for.
It is illegal to post links to warez or paid for apps on this site. Asking or linking to apps that are paid for, for free is against the rules and will not be tolerated.
I'll have to try out newsroom I use Pulse for RSS feeds.
Need for Speed is great.. best racing game on this phone IMO,
ALso try GURK.. good ole 8 bit RPG gaming.. it's soo addicting..
I just discovered a new app on the Epic General fourms.. called Droid Streamer
What a great app!
A little off topic, but to address flawlessbmxr's problem with orb... of course assuming everthing works except for the actual streaming.

To get orb to work over 3g (should already work over wifi) you will need to edit your RTSP Proxy Address one of two ways...
The first way requires that you know your MSL code for your phone... Enter ##DATA# into your dialer and you will be taken to a hidden menu, from there go in to Multimedia (or 'Edit->Others->Multimedia' if your on DK28 (or other Froyo)) and change the RTSP Address to 0.0.0.0
The second way requires that you have LauncherPro, ADW Ex (newest regular ADW might work too), or Any Cut installed on your phone. Just add a shortcut to one of your home screens and choose 'Activities->com.android.hiddenmenu->Multimedia(.Multimedia_Edit)' (as listed in DK28, may be slightly different in DI18)and then change your address as above. If your running ADW, you may need to choose Custom Shortcut, and click on Pick an activity to create the shortcut.

I've been using droidstreamer for a little over a week now. It does NOT have many vids. But, it does have full length movies and tv shows for streaming. It worked in 3g and 4g for me. And it's free . I usually just download shows and movies to my sd card and play through my video player though.

The reason why cable companies put all attention on ipad is because its where the money is. Sad but true.
Honeycomb its just one month old give it time.
When or even if Honeycomb tablets blow up out of no where and surpass the iPad in tablet marketshare (or whatever) then attention will be given to Android tablets. Until then, "Deal with it." Or.. y'know, get an iPad.
I work for comast, we will have a streaming app soon for iPad also but we are working on a honeycomb version also. Hope that helps
fwiw, dish network's streaming sling app for phones works perfectly in honeycomb.
Cablevision iO app is coming to android in the Summer apparently (along with remote control features built into the app).. I am anxiously waiting on this app too..
