I am waiting on a Sprint Hero phone and building a Media Center. I think I will be building a Myth box and this app or one like it would be great for the phone.

Not sure what mythTV is.. but i think it was a way to stream video and music to you iPhone via internet from your home computer (?)
If this is it, "Winamp remote" works just fine to stream musik (havnt tested with viedo yet, will report back when i do)
It's really awesome
Edit: Video streaming did not work.. which is pretty weird, since winamp remote do have a flashplayer so you can stream movies to the nintendo wii(HTC Hero has newer flashplayer than wii, so it should be possible to stream to the hero(?))
I Might aswell email them about it

MythTV is a free Linux open source Media Center with a PVR and other addons. I thought it would be cool to be able to stream my recorded shows whenever I wanted to.
here are a couple of links that could show you more.

Thanks for you reply

There is already an app called mythdroid.
http://code.google.com/p/mythdroid/
I've tried it and could use my hero as a remote for my frontend, browse backend status; There is a patch to apply ton backend to have a better tv programs list. I don't think you can watch recordings or video on phone by now.

I know that the mythweb addon can do streaming to a browser on another computer. If an app on the Android phone could play the file that is streamed, it might work that way? I can't try it until I get my new phone.

Has anybody gotten mythdroid working? I can use it as a remote but playback on the device does not work.
Or does anyone know of a good upnp client that might do the trick?
Thanks

Anyone having trouble toggling to fullscreen while watching NFL Network using this app? The video plays fine small but when I hit fullscreen the stream stops. I'm running NFSfans 6.5 final rom. The video opens windows media player by default. Anyway to open the stream in TCMP or streaming media instead?

i cant get around the option to upgrade. I even did a fresh install of the app from the original sprint dump.

I didn't install any updater, but whenever i open the app it tells me to upgrade. The widget still works fine so I just keep that on one of the home screens. So to people who use this app we are kinda boned in terms of checking stats and listening to games, but as long as we use the widget we still get real time scores.
Oh, and also I don't know who likes what teams but if you are interested in listening to some games download "a online radio" from the market. My team is the packers and unfortunately I can't get any of their games, but I have listened to entire Dallas, Pit, and San diego games. Just search espn and it will give you all the available espn radio stations you can stream on your phone.

I dont get any prompts to upgrade. But I am unable to view the NFL Network Stream or the Live Games anymore. I get a black screen with Audio only. Used to work fine.
Other videos within the app work fine.
Anyone else get this?

I have the newest version v2.4.1-1.0.111 I downloaded the .cab file from the sprint site via desktop pc. The cab is named... nfl2009.cab for the HTC Touch qvga 240 x 320. Everything works fine except I cant view nfl network in full screen using the app via media player mobile. Someone in another post said it was possible to view nfl network fullscreen through Sprintv. Problem is I have verizon as a carrier.

[REQ] app to browse and open files on PC

ok so i have used remote desktops apps and everything but im looking for an app that just shows different drives on your home pc and able to open them up and play on your pc...
so it would kinda look like astro file manager but you can look though you pc
the closes that i have got was Gmote but they open it in there own player..
i wanna open and play it thought vlc
would be better to use wifi but bluetooth is ok 2
anyone come across a app like this???

Estrongs file explorer for both WiFi and BT.
Use search before using "new post", it helps.

Is there a way to open the files such as a .avi file and make it play on the computer from the mobile.. I Tired with that app but didnt work

By far the slickest way of controlling media on your pc or xbox1 or Linux box...
Install XBMC
Get XBMC remote from Google Code
It's superb.

Testing request of the aplication Tv Shows Stream

TV SHOWS STREAM (v3.2 or +) DOES FULLY SUPPORT MOTOROLA XOOM
THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR HELP, SPECIALLY TO "Xezuka" XDA MEMBER
------------------------------------
Hi,
We have been working on "tv shows stream" android aplication and we whoul'd really like to know if it is working properly under Motorola Xoom using android 3.0 stock .
This device is not being sold yet at Europe...and we can not wait to know if the aplication will work fine
You can find the full thread of our aplication here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903351
The lite version is free and you can find it on market by searching "TV Shows Stream"
Thanks in advanced for the testing, we will really apreciate.

what does you app do? is it just a streaming site client?

I thought it relied on flash support? If so, it no work ie until flash for honeycomb is available.

Not exactly.
I dont want to advertise the aplication here and thast why i didnt say a description, but basically the aplication searchs over internet for tv-shows links capables to be played directly on your device, with full screen support using megavideo, frogmovz, karambavidz and other hosting services. The search results are shown in a intuitive and easy to use interface.
You can find a detailed description in the xda thread of the aplication:

You are right, my mistake, i thught it was already availeable. So I will have to wait a bit more, thanks for the information.
Maybe I should close the thread and re-open it after flash has been released.

The app is now starting up, looks, and runs great. I've been waiting for this! Android 2.2~ version on my Droid X is amazing. Just waiting for Flash...

Just tried it out on both my Xoom and Captivate.
I am pretty sure things are working on the Captivate as they should, so used that as a guide. Hehe Test videos played through each host, low Res, but no issues.
OK.. on the Xoom the UI seems fine and works. Problems come up when playing the videos. When playing a Megavideo link the MV interface comes up with no player controls, nothing else happens. When trying Frogmovz or Karambavids.. I get a black screen with no video controls. Touching the center of the screen has triggered play/pause, but I just seem to get audio and no video is shown.
I tried out playing Megavideos through their website and that worked fine for me.

Hi,
The same problems have been reported by using unoficial flash version on htc evo. The solution was uninstall flash and reinstall from market.
Are you using the leaked version of flash 10.2 right?
It should be availeable on 18th on android market for all devices and it should fix the sound with no video issue.
Thanks for the infor, it wil really help us.

I have same issue with Xoom also. Works great and love the app on my fascinate.

Hello,
I have a paid for version of TV Shows Stream, it works on my Nexus One thanks very much for that. I admit that I probably never use it, but I like it and it works most of the time.
I have a Xoom, with v3.0.1 and the leaked Flask 10.2 APK. At this time, flash content via the stock browser seems to work fine but TV Shows Stream does not seem to work properly. All browsers come up with a blank window more or less, I tried a few megavideo and karambozworths.

Yes, it works great on the Nexus One but on the Xoom with the leaked 10.3 flash you can hear the sound but no video. Hope you get it working because it would be great to watch it on a larger screen!

I probably wouldn't be too concerned for now as the leaked version is having issues in other browsers as well. I'm not sure if that'd be because they don't see the leaked version or what... but as with the others, the app works fantastically on my Droid X but has no Video or Audio for the Xoom running the leaked Flash 10.2
Ill update again when its officially released March 18th and reinstalled.

TV Shows Stream full is my fav app and I use it daily on my Droid X with no issues. Cannot wait for xoom compatibility which as previously mentioned should be resolved when the official flash file is available on market March 18 if I read correctly. I will def uninstall the leaked file and load the official 10.2 release and report back on its usuability on my xoom. Great app btw dev. -

I have the Flash leak for my Xoom and I concur the app opens and you can see the list of shows but just cannot play the video (or see the video controls), just a blank screen.
However, I emailed myself a link for a show (from within your app) and then opened the link in the email with my broswer. The video played fine with no problems. Thus I assume when the official Flash 10.2 is released this week we will be able to load the video from right within the app - as I do on my Droid X.
BTW -great app - best money spent on an app. Keep up the awsome work

tv shows
I use the TV shows application all the time on my xoom. Right now u just have to email yourself the link for the video you want to play. I copy and paste the link in dolphin hd browser. Just make sure dolphin hd is in desktop mode. I doing this I can stream video fine, thanks for the great app also I have the leaked version of flash installed.

Hi
Is a usefull workaround but we have the intention to offer a better solutions.
We are almost sure that with the official release of flash player will work as it works most of devices, but we are already working in alternative solutions.
We have already a working solution in some video servers, karambavidz and Loombo (loombo will be added in next update) will have an option for watching the videos using any of the player you have installed on the phone, even native android player. FastForward and RW completelly working and very smooth playback, as not flash player will be used on those videos. More info soon, we are hard working right now on it.

Hi
Can someone uninstall the leaked version of flash and install the official 10.2 from market to chec if the problems still persist? Thanks in advanced.

Yes Haze, I've got the paid version and the behavior is the same. On the Xoom, the leaked version was 10.2.155.67 and todays version is 10.2.166.12 so I suspect very minor changes.

In the next update, Karambavidz video links will be able to be watched in the native android player or any other player , without the need of flash player.
You can also email yourself the link and open it with the dolphin HD broser as a temporary workaround, it has been reported to work fine.
We are working on it , thanks for the testing time.

Honeycomb Music App

Apparently some enterprising individuals have pulled the Honeycomb music app from the Xoom and made it into an apk. I had just finished applying a Skinomi screen protector when I saw the post so I won't be able to try it out until I get off work tomorrow. I was wondering if anyone had already tried and if so how it works, seeing as the app was designed for a tablet.

Works for me...
Running gadam v 1.1.1
Nice!
I have to say I prefer Rockon though.

Working on Calkulin's Gtab Rom beta1

so, does this support streaming already? can I play music from a mounted share? I've found not all music players allow me to choose where to pull the music from...

From what I can see......it "pushes" the music on your device to the cloud so that if you remove the music from the device you can stream it from the cloud.
So the music needs to be on the tablet first and then sync it to the cloud. From then on it can be available to the device even if removed from the device.

Yep, I saw another thread about the cloud syncing ability which is where I first found the apk. tcrews is right, it seems you need to have the music on your G Tab first, let it sync to the Google cloud and then you can delete it from your internal memory/SD card and stream it anywhere you have wifi.
EDIT: Here is the post about syncing. I'm not sure if the cloud sync requires 2.3.3 or if it would be able to sync on a Froyo build.

I honestly dont think this is working at all right now unless you have a rom running 2.3.3 that seems to be the rumor even though all signs point to it being able to work with the sync buttons and such however im running the new music on my droid 1 running UD and having the music set to stream and my gtab isnt picking it up at all so theres gotta be some type of issue here.
Guess ill have to wait for the real google music to launch officially.

Its not running on vegan 5.1.1

The actual streaming part of google music is working? or just the program itself.

I'm running Calkulin's Gtab Rom beta1, and this isn't working at all. I can see music in the app, but nothing plays and it doesn't sync. Am I missing something?

It works!
It works on the stock ROM too.
Pretty sweet!

I haven't had a chance to try the streaming yet. I'm running the 3/8/11 version of Vegan Ginger and saw under the account sync settings where you can select to sync gmail, books, contacts, ect... there is now a check box for syncing music.
May make the streaming on this player workable.
