[Q] Pandora, YouTube not working on Froyo 0.6.7 - Nook Color General

I'm running the latest Nookie Froyo (0.6.7) from eMMC and cannot get Pandora or YouTube to work. Pandora looks like it's working, but never makes a sound. YouTube says "There was a problem while playing".
According to the Froyo page Pandora and YouTube should work fine since 0.6.6. Did I miss an install step?
Here's the logcat for launching YouTube: http://pastebin.com/zXX1i4bU

[Q] No videos playing on nook color

ok so i recently flashed phiremod v3,the latest cm7 nightly and hc v4 and none of them seem to support video... i cant watch videos on youtube (website not app) yahoo or anywhere. any suggestions? thanks.
did you install flash? I have phiremod v2 with flash installed (from market) and youtube website works fine for me.
flash
yeah i made sure i downloaded flash from the market but i keep getting an error message saying this video cannot be played...
At this time CM7, phiremod (based on CM7) and brianf21's customized nookie 0.6.8 do not support video natively. They hope to fix that in future releases.
Since video is important to me, and not everything I watch is flash, I went back to customized nookie 0.6.7 and installed dalingrin's latest kernel. I'll get occassional FC, especially if advance or go back in video (fixed by reboot), but at least video plays.
video
ok thanks alot. i just wanted to make sure its not just something wrong with my device. im not so worried about the video as i still have my android phone, this is just a toy lol. but thanks again for the info.
Also HC doesn't have DSP either. Nookie 0.6.8 (DSP introduced in 0.6.7) worked when I tried but has a very small stutter like something occasionally running in the background. Went to Nook 1.1.0 rooted and can notice the small difference. A OC kernel might have fixed the problem but didn't try.

Video Playback on phiremod CM7

I am currently using CM7, phiremod v4.
I am not able to play my videos, getting "Sorry, this video cannot be played", when using the stock video player unlike on froyo.
On rockplayer, I tried using enabling the hardware decoding but ended up not able to play too, getting "This file cannot be played with SystemPlayer".
anyone having problems playing videos on phiremod v4, CM7?

CM7 and HC do not support hardware video decoding yet. Only Nookie Froyo and stock Eclair do.
I'm using CM7 myself and software decoding with Rockplayer or VPlayer works fine.

What is your LCD density? I think it's got to be set to 161 or greater for some apps like Google Map to work.
You can change it in the /system/build.props
I'm using CM7 v12 and mapps, with Wifi Location works perfectly.

I get a little audio lag. Its not spot on probably due to the lack of HW acceleration, but it was watchable.
on that note, youtube and other streams were also a little choppy

[Q] a DIFFERENT youtube problem -- no audio

I have a different YouTube problem. At least I haven't found any other post mentioning it.
I'm running Autonootered 1.1 Eclair with the signed HQ YouTube installed.
YouTube videos work great but there is NO audio with them. None at all. I don't think it is a hardware problem because audio works with other apps.
Had the same problem with the youtube that's installed as part of autonooter 3.
I've tried all the normal stuff... reboots, wiping data, etc.
Any ideas?

netflix

I wonder if anyone had managed to install Netflix and use it?
Flash 10.3 seems to be required. I installed Netflix and I can go select movie to play but it starts like is playing but stops and goes back to aplicario.
Same Problem
HUAWEI IDEOS S7 - Running Indonesian 2.2.2 Rooted
I loaded the newest Netflix.apk from the internet.
It installs fine, lets me log in fine, NO ERROR messages about my "phone" not being supported.
Go to play a movie and it loads the player, title of movie appears at the bottom of screen, you hear 1 second of sound, then it abruptly goes back to the netflix menus.
The same thing happens no matter which movie I select.
WE ARE SO CLOSE! Any ideas on how to fix this?

[Q] Hulu Plus App work for anyone?

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.
