Why no support from Hulu for tablets?

I'm curious why Hulu isn't supporting the android tablets yet... everything is supported except our tablets
I've seen alot of posts here for people trying to make it work, but that's it... nothing official
so is there a reason that we know of?

It is interesting there's a hulu app for the Kindle.

I have Hulu.com working on my Xoom.

Yeah, we have it on our fire and the ipad. No love for xoom
To make it work on the http though, don't the xoom need to have a hacked flash apk?

So what if there's no support for hulu. Pretty sure someone made it possible for xoom users to watch hulu on the browser. I did it awhile ago and the steps are really easy if you have rooted your xoom.

Well that's the problem... if it's rooted
why do I have to root my phone to do something that it should do from the start?
my atrix which runs a very similar OS can run hulu. it's the same damn thing almost...
or my gf. she won't know the R of Root if she wanted to root her tablet to watch family guy on hulu...

Pretty sure because the Kindle is based off of Gingerbread and not Honeycomb.

Very good point. Maybe ICS will bring Hulu without having to root etc...

How to capture on-screen video?

does anybody know how to capture video on Lg Optimus 2X? Screencast app doesnt work with tegra 2. are there any other options pls?

I have no idea what you're talking about or how to help you, but it might be nice to post some more info like for example what ROM you are using and kernel.

Well, i think Rom and Kernel dont matter here, i just need to know if there is any chance of recording video (of what im right doing on my phone) and i said i know there is a program for it (called ScreenCast, but this programm doesnt work with Tegra2/3 devices). So my question is, is there any other way to record like that?

eraldo I had trouble understanding what his objective is too, but I think I understand now... he wants to record video of what he's doing on the phone... like fraps for the PC.
You'll have to make due with screenshots I guess...

Tegra 2 does not support NEON, and does not manage the display via a framebuffer so screen video capture isn't possible.

Tablets are different and your device obviously uses a frambuffer the o2x does not, however tegra 2 doesn't support NEON at all.

You may use Droid Explorer or Android VNC Server, for getting video by usb cable on your PC. But for this method frame rate is very low.

I use screen recording software to do that. It is not only able to record onscreen video, but also can take screenshots.

Adobe ends Flash downloads on August 15th

http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/29/3...pported?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
on August 15th you will no longer be able to download Adobe Flash from Google Play.
So it might be a good idea to backup the APK.

Happy Birthday! ....no more flash support
lulz

*shrugs*

It still works with Jelly Bean from what I've read.
You never know, developers might decide to update flash themselves.
Sent from my SGH-I9000 using xda app-developers app

i've confirmed myself by running jelly bean on my galaxy nexus that flash does work.
i watched an entire episode of stargate sg-1 on amazon prime video and it was perfect.

probably old news, but in the google nexus 7 manual that google has put on their books store, it states that you can still download the normal android browser from the play store if you want to watch flash videos.
otherwise, with chrome, just go to www.youtube.com/html5 and enable html5 videos.

Tbh, HTML5 is the way to go. The only downside to Google not supporting Flash anymore in Chrome is that a lot of content out on the web still uses Flash, like games, etc. But with the web as it is (HTML5 and CSS3) there is no reason for websites not to develop for these technologies. It would make the removal of plugins like Flash so that content will run in the web browser natively. In a few years things will change though.

Is there any way to play amazon prime videos without flash? I've just been using the browser and flash so far...

You can download the app from the kindle fire but it is very buggy on any device other than the fire and nook color (same resolution). Also it will not work if your rooted.
Firefox, DolphinHD, ICS Browser+ all support flash and work on the Nexus 7 and probably better than the app will.

Flash Player
Here: Adobe Flash Player 11.1.111.5

Google just seems to be pushing the envelope to get rid of Flash, Lol
Everyone needs to start developing HTML5 anyways, what better way than this

I have a current flash .apk stored in my dropbox already. I'm not too worried. Now hopefully people like amazon will start using html5 soon....

It wasn't Google's choice, Adobe doesn't want to put anymore time and money into Flash for any mobile platform.

It's too bad Flash doesn't die all together. As long as it is maintained on the desktop, developers will still use it and widen the mobile/desktop web fragmentation.
Devs need to start using html5 PERIOD and Flash just needs to DIE. It had a purpose at one point, but in modern times Flash no longer has a place.

Humm I do not agree, do a search on all the new flash based web games coming out. Also have you SEEN the "tools" for html5 development? I guess they are fine if you are a C++ guy, but for design they suck and no where near flash.
The up side is many things can be saved out as html5 right from flash.
The reality though is you do design for desktop and for mobile for most sites, so the fragmentation is here to stay, and flash is going to be part of the desktop.

The app from the kindle fire was built for gingerbread. As far as I know it wont work on newer android versions.

Asphalt 7 crappy graphics

the videos of asphalt 7 are very impressive with high graphics, but on my P990 the graphics are crappy as hell. i think our phones are more than capable of running it on high graphics, so y does gameloft do this **** to us

M8 Asphalt 7 is officially not even released on Play store:cyclops:.More over the available versions are beta so don't get to any conclusions so soon.

the version your using is an unofficial version disseminated across the internet, so wait for the official release, having said that from the other games, like nova 3 and the amazing spiderman, gameloft doesnt give a damn about optimising the games on our phones, only apple devices and the galaxy s line

Enable visual effects.
If there is an .xml file named somthng like "config" in game folder? then you can enable all the visual effects in game by editing that file using a text editor.And almost all effects are supported by our P990.

when finally this game will be released for android?

I got it to work from my laptop with the stand alone sling app. I used the cast whole screen option.
Hope the android app builds in native support!

Stand alone sling app? You mean something other than through the website streaming?

Yeah, there's a standalone Windows desktop app. Last I checked it was still available on their website, although I don't think it's supported anymore.

Awesome I'll look into it when I get home thanks.

No go for sling box 500. If so I have to be in the same network and to do that I would have to go from Vegas to San Diego. Hopefully they get android support soon or at least CC supports whatever the online streaming users Microsoft silver light or something like that. Thanks for the info though.

Facebook has a Sling webapp that works on Linux through Flash, should work... keyword should, but you never know

The stand alone sling app is hard to find. Here is a link to the one I use.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20708654/SlingPlayer-2.0.3508-Setup-US.exe
I prefer it over the web apps. You can force it to stream HD and that is nice.
BTW, don't take any upgrade that the app offers or it won't work any more.

Confirmed the FB app for slingplayer worked for me.

Still not working
Hi,
I was reading through the feeds from this thread and followed to download the stand alone app for slingplayer.
Got the stand alone slingplayer to install and actually can see my slingboxes.
Now - I've looked everywhere on the slingplayer to be able to "cast" it using chromecast but sorry, I can't find any option to do that.
The slingplayer version I got is 2.0.3.508
Any help please to further explain to a rookie?
Thanks in advance.

Make sure you have the Chromecast extension installed in Chrome Browser.
Click the cast button in the browser and you will see a little gray drop-down arrow.
In there click Cast Entire Screen.

I do have the Chromecast extension installed to my Chrome browser and still not too succesful.
So I started the standalone Slingplayer, got the video I needed showing already on my laptop, went back to my Chrome browser, then onto Chromecast icon just next to the url field. No gray drop down arrow to indicate option for clicking Cast Entire Screen.

For some reason, I cannot stream using the embedded player. It connects and shows my slingbox 350 (with an amber/yellow light), but when I try to access it, it says "Unable to connect, please make sure your slingbox is on and connected..."
I can connect and stream using the normal watch.slingbox.com site, but as soon as I use the embedded, it doesn't work. I should also mention it works fine on my Nexus 4 and 7.
Any thoughts?

The announcement was today, finally, but guess what? No Solo or HD support. My Solo works perfectly - hate to buy another box. I wonder what the chances are of getting this app to work with legacy products... They claim on their website that the reason they couldn't add support was because the older boxes weren't capable. If they can stream to a Roku, they're definitely capable. I believe that about as much as I believe the original iPhone was not "capable" of sending MMS. I get that they're a business, but I hate when trying to force current customers to upgrade is so blatant.

Yep, Sling is lying.
I replaced my Slingbox in UK a year ago. They only sold the Solo and Pro HD then. Neither is supported now for Chromecast, despite these not yet being officially legacy
