The following apps don't seem to work on my G-Tablet:
Streamfurious
imsdroid
sipdroid
(Apparently, sipdroid may just be an audio issue)
Others have said that certain other video/audio streaming apps or VoIP apps don't work.
They all seem to have network streaming in common. Is there a framework or something missing from the G-Tablet? If so, perhaps we can provide it in one of the unofficial f/w's

i can streamtalk radio
I use TuneIn radio, UPnPlay, and they both work. Iheartradio seems to not work with anything anymore, but has stations i like. Streaming seems ok here.
Interesting. Iheartradio works for me on my EVO 4G. So does the Xiiaalite (or whatever the shoutcast renamed streamer is now).
I got Xiiaalite to work briefly the other day. Then after about 5 minutes it said it kept buffering. Iheartradio did the same but never started.
I believe it *MIGHT* have something to do with the ads being taken away. I'm just guessing. Or a broken pipe somewhere, but that wouldn't make sense if some other streamers are able to do it.
**Correction** i Reverted Adfree back and Xiialivelite still doesn't work, nor does i heart radio (((
I've tried to find a TV/video streamer that works with no joy SBP TV most notably doesn't work though the app is running fine on my PDN. Crystal TV and others all give me the same problem in that they seem to be unable to open the video or audio streams.
I'm running TNTlite 2.0.2

Someone suggested in the Slingplayer thread that disabling stagefright fixes slingbox streaming. I wonder if it would work for other streaming apps.

I'll have to try that. Anyone here a VLC user? I can't seem to get it to work either with any of the apps out there on the market.
I'm using TVersity to do my streaming. It has a flash interface that works quite nicely. It's not exactly what I want but it gets the job done. It's a little bit of a pain to setup, but it's the only solution I was able to get consistently working.
I had trouble getting the Slacker app to stream. I'm running a TnT Lite which has a modified /etc/hosts file to reduce ads, so I edited /etc/hosts and took out all of the "extra" entries that roebeet put in and it works fine, now.
I understand there's an app in the Market that will do this for you if you're not comfortable editing /etc/hosts or just don't know how to do it. Supposedly you install the app and then click on Revert.
Gmote works to stream your PC media
Gmote is the only app I've found that streams video from my home media PC to the Gtab.
AndroStream and VLC Stream and Convert, will stream over RTSP, but Gtab only plays audio.
Stream with Orb Live
I got used to the OrbLive app. That thing works great on my EVO, anyone have any idea why it cant work on the GTAB ?
FWIW I'm streaming my home audio library with AudioGalaxy just fine on vegan beta 3.
With Orb, I had much better luck avoiding the app and just logging in at mycast.orb.com and using the web interface. I found that setting the User Agent in Dolphin HD to Android made it easier to use. I was even able to stream movies from my NAS, which is pretty cool!

I am running an MT-DAAP server at home and the DAAP program from the market loads and streats great on the Tab running Vegan.
I haven't tried any video streaming since there is no Myth front end for Android yet.
Now that we have a working Flash for the Xoom, is it possible to mod one of the Hulu apps to work on the Xoom? I tried installing the one form SkyRaider from my Dinc. It installs and will even load but when you click on a video it doesn't run.
Any dev's that can weigh in on this would be great!
Hi
We have opened a testing request for the aplication "TV Shows Stream" and "Tv Shows Stream Lite"
The testing request thread is here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=977194
And the main thread aplication is here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903351
The aplication need flash player installed. It will play the videos from megavideo and other streaming site that are using jwplayer. The aplication is working fine in all 2.2 / 2.3 android flash capable tablets and in most of android devices with flash.
Any info will be welcome, thanks in adnvanced.
Downloaded the lite version from the market, the sound works, but the video doesn't show. Also, wanted to stay on track, any way to mod the Hulu apps?
Would Hulu work if you have flash player and then use the Browser in desktop mode (through hulu.com)?
I haven't gotten my Xoom yet so that's my pending theory right now.

No, Hulu will check your flash version which reports as android, so you have to fix that as well.
Also don't have my Xoom yet - but you can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990676

Thanks... Hopefully I'll get mine this week or next week. That thread looked like it works pretty well.
Think using hulu this way would be better than paying for Hulu Plus
I saw mention of a few people getting the Netflix app from the revolution system dump working on the fascinate. Did any of you have any luck? If so, what ROM are you using? I had no luck on AOSP.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Yes I had great luck and it even installed perfectly on the fascinate. Only thing it doesn't do is stream video. Apparently it doesn't on any phone as of yet but you can at the moment check your instant and dvd selections perfectly.
I've got it installed and working fine. Streaming does get an error but I saw it may have something to do with current drm setup.

Nothing is corrupt. It's just not fully finished yet and wasn't supposed to be leaked.
Some devs in the hacking forum seem to have tracked to a drm issue. I know in some of the later superclean roms there was an issue with battery drain from the drm service always running so Adrynalyne dropped it from the framework but created a patch to put it back if there was any issue. I'm on sc2.9v & I've got the netflix app installed & logged in to my acct. but can't connect to stream. Anyone not on superclean try the app with any success?
Ran the Netflix app under 2.9 and 2.9.1 successfully but with no video stream. All we can do for now is check DVD and instant queues.
It requires hardware DRM, and checks the cpu. No bueno.

Too bad. Thanks for looking into it.
Doesnt netflix instant require windows silverlight...
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I'm guessing beyond the DRM issue, Netflix simply hasn't activated the service on their servers yet for this app. So even right now on the appropriate hardware, it still wouldn't work.
Installed it on mine with rooted, personally cleaned out, stock rom - same result. Hoping that devs can get ahold of this and hack it up. Has anyone tried the playon sevice that is supposed to make hulu and netflix work?
I've tried the playon mobile but it definitely needs an upgrade do to it not having a wide range for working with routers. Believe me if anyone knows anything about networking it's me and mine is setup perfectly to run playon mobile. It has never connected for me at all. Which is a bummer because playon is on all my consoles in the house and it works great! I would try it out for sure because it is actually working for others on there router setups with playon mobile. I'm really looking forward to this netflix app though. I've been using it now for a couple of days and it works amazing except of course the "no streaming" not working right now. I've unpacked the netflix.apk and have looked at the coding and there's nothing we can do to make it work the way it should. In a sense netflix needs to click the "go" button if you will on there end to make it finally work.
I remember hearing that some new Android phones that will use the new (Qualcomm?) dual core chip will have something built in that will allow Netflix DRM to function and those that don't have it won't get that capability. I think it was from This Week in Google.
I use PlayOn for netflix.
I like it because it works but its a little slow.
Video Quality: 8
but being able to get netflix now:10

Does this convert the videos to flash I'm confused? I too witness silver light loading screens every time I'm watching nfx. How might this be possible
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I assume you have PlayOn installed on both you phone and PC, right?
I am pretty sure it is converting on the fly to flv or something.
When I select netflix and choose a movie I get a screen that says "buffering" for about 10 sec and then the movie plays just fine.
sound is a 9/10 and video 8/10
hope you get it working, if you like I can post a vid of it working
Can't wait to get a full netflix ported to this phone. Is this a codec issue?
I installed the NetFlix Queue manager that uses Adobe Air but am not having any luck getting it to work. It loads but I get a chrome error screen that the page isn't available, I believe that there is some reference to a token missing (or something similar). Anyone know if this issue can be resolved? I love the application on my phone and would love it to work on the tablet as well.
No one is using NetFlix Queue manager? I can't imagine anyone owning a tablet not wanting access to there NetFlix queue. Does this app work for others?
I honestly don't care about managing my queue from the tablet. I do most from my 360 or my PC....so I haven't looked at the app you are looking at.
I only care about watching Netflix on my tablet....and hoping for a Tegra2 supported .apk for this. PlayOn will do it...but I'm not paying an annual fee (PlayOn) for something I'm already paying a monthly fee for (Netflix) since that's all I'd do with it....watch Netflix.
Doesn't work for me either. Yes, I'm disappointed, because I have a media player than only works with the queue, so it'd be nice to be able to use the tab to manage it. Oh well...
The official Netflix apk that's floating around this forum may not be able to play movies on the GTab, but it works great for managing your Instant Queue.

Can anyone point me to this apk?
The new Hulu Plus app just came out and I've got a gTab with the following in the about tablet section:
Model: TnT G-Harmony
And 2.2
Tap UI version: TnT G-Harmony v1
Kernel: 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty
Build: FRF91
I've used this as my daily for a while. What do I have to do to get the tab to be seen as compatible with Netflix and Hulu Plus app? new build.prop? Thanks in advance.
Not sure if it fully works as I don't have an account to log in with...
However, it did stream the "free gallery" on my Gtablet running CM7.03.
Netflix definitely works on CM7.03.
I do not see them in the Market but they have both been posted around. For Netflix I just download it on my Droid (supported device) and transfer it over to my Gtablet. For HuluPlus, Droid-life.com has the app.
I've got the apk, but I get 'Device not supported' post install. Could you just try the install to see if your build is supported/no errors?
I'm searching for my new daily build and wondering what's best combo for flash, netflix, hulu plus now and video playback in general. Want to stick to Froyo I think until HW acceleration is better implemented on later versions. Also, I see baseline 1.2 and Caulk+Clem for best kernel. I'm not advanced but can follow the steps to drop a new rom on. What's your opinion and could you point me to a solid daily rom noting above?
Like I said.....it installed and I was able to stream the "free gallery", I just can't log in to see if it gives all/full functions of those with an account.
Running stock CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable)
It runs fine for me without any noticible issues. I didn't have to modify the build.prop or anything else; just installed it without any tricks.
I just watched an episode of The Daily Show and it ran great. The video ran much smoother than watching it via the hacked Flash file via the Hulu website so I'm thinking the video player in the Hulu Plus app plays video modified for mobile devices unlike the Hulu website.
Here is the apk. Enjoy.
Note: If you have videos in your queue that are tagged as "web only" then this Hulu Plus app will not play them. So I would recommend keeping the hacked Flash for Hulu so you can watch them via the web browser.

For Netflix I used the latest version from the Market and it works great without any build.prop mods. Same for the Hulu Plus app (see my previous post for apk). I'm running CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable) haven't tried it on my VEGAn 5.1.1 gTab yet.
It definitely works on Cyanogen 7.0.3. Got Netflix, Hulu+, & Flash on my tablet now.
If Plants vs. Zombies wouldn't lock up & it would boot up faster, I would have reached tablet nirvana.

For Hulu+, I see it in market using the mahimahi string in my build prop and the device set as olympus on a froyo rom based on calkulin 1.1. I too get device unsupported when launching.
For PvZ, you can get it working, but need froyo and this kernle: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128866

Thank you for this apk. It works flawlessly for me on Vegan GE. With the netflix fix posted earlier in the link below, and now this hulu plus app I don't ever see me needing to leave Vegan GE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15147560&postcount=13
so is there any way to get hulu+ working on froyo
hulu+ on Flashback 10.1
I've managed to get around the "device not supported" problem with hulu+ app working on flashback 10.1, but the video shows up in the bottom left hand corner with the top half of the vid cut off. I've tried setting the resolution of playback to every setting. I also tried different density settings for the display, nothing seems to be able to move the vid to the center of the screen. Anyone having the same problem? Anyone have any other ideas on how to get the video to the center of the screen? Sorry if this has been covered, did a search here and in the general questions sections, didn't see anything, I hope i didn't miss it...lol
I haven't tried it on Flashback but even if it works for you perfectly it will still limit what videos will play (only ones tagged "mobile") on it based on what agreements Hulu has with the content provider.
I stopped using the app on my gTab almost as soon as I installed it when I realized that I can play everything (tv, mobile, computer) Hulu has to offer via my browser and the hacked Flash for Hulu unlike the Hulu Plus app.
Just my two cents...

I don't think you missed anything. I've tried everything you have tried. The video doesn't move. I assumed that the app thinks this is an ASUS tablet which has a higher resolution. I tried editing build.prop but nothing has worked. Hopefully the new kernel will correct this for us. I cut off cable because of HULU and would like to have it on my tab as well. Just tired of looking at Froyo and Gingerbread.
up and running
Well i gave up on getting flashback to work right. Flashed CM7.1 and i have the hulu+ and netflix working...now onto get the hbo go and max go apps working.
