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

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.

Hulu App on Xoom

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

Think using hulu this way would be better than paying for Hulu Plus

Crackle - Free movies and tv shows

I didn't see a thread for the Crackle app from Sony that is free in the Market. This app gives you access to a lot of free movies and television shows. I have it installed on both of my gTabs (one running VEGAn 5.1.1 and the other running CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (stable)) and it runs great. I have noticed that during some times of the day it seems that the network connection between Crackle's servers and my house come to almost a crawl. Other than that it's another great free way to watch movies and t.v. shows on our gTabs.

Can you please share the latest version of the apk, all searches outside US gives us the 1.0 version (which don't run on the gtab).
TIA

I've never ran that ROM so I can only speak to my experience with a gTab running CM 7.0.3.
It streams the video like Netflix/Hulu/Fox TV, it doesn't download it like the BlockBuster app.
Like I said on my original post, at certain times of the day or with certain videos it seems the network connection is super slow which can lead to white or black screens with only audio as the app is trying to buffer the video. Try it when you have the best WiFi connection possible. When at home I have 12 mb downstream and it plays fine for me 90% of the time.
As for the queue, it's just that, a queue like on Hulu. It's sort of a playlist so if you have several shows or movies in your queue they will play one after the other automatically.

Well I'll try again and thanks for the info.

I must say, I'm pretty unimpressed with it. Its organization is a mess, and it looks like it just has rather unpopular shows and movies on it.
I might be wrong. But it seems to me that I'm sticking with Netflix for the time being.

Some of us are too cheap to pay for Netflix.
It's still got a few decent movies on there, and Seinfield and Married w/Children are a hoot for quick watching. It's at least worth a download, even if you only watch a couple of movies and uninstall it.

Pretty awesome Running G-Harmony and watching Ghostbusters as I type this! Thanks for posting!!

Thanks OP Great App. Works great on my GTablet and Droid X phone

It sounds like Crackle is using Flash. And it's a well known issue that flash only kind of works in Bottle of Smoke. Flash will play audio but not video. Knowing this I will not bother trying to install this on my tablet which is running GTabComb (which is a 1.1 bootloader derivative of BOS). The only reason YouTube app works on BOS is because it is probably using html5 instead of flash in the app.

Could you u post the latest version?

[Q] Youtube HQ vids

I was curious if anyone has problems playing the vids on youtube that are HQ. If I turn off the HQ for the the vid then it plays no problem.
When I leave it on, a msg from the app displays just saying there was a problem playing your video please retry.
I've experienced this only in one other app recently released by funimation.
Hulu and netflix work fine for me. I have tried a multitude of roms to see if its linked to specific ones.

Question has been asked a million times . Anyways here's your answer, you need to use an older version of the youtube app for HQ to work. AFAIK the last working version is 2.1.6. Happy youtubing!

I have seen this a million times as well. But I never really paid any attention because I didn't care.
But yesterday I was testing some system app mods, so I ended up downloading YouTube from the market. HQ videos were playing for me.
I guess that's unusual or whatever. Maybe they weren't really HQ quality, I don't know. But they were playing.
Me and the kid watched funny cat videos for over an hour.
Non-opengl, no system mods that would matter.

Could you try it out again and report back?

I was afraid it was something app related. Its not a big deal. Was mostly curious as well as seeing if I could do some tweak to get the funimation app to work as well. Thanks for the help!

Okay, well I had flashed a couple of times since I posted that, and when I went to try it again, it didn't work. I knew I wasn't wrong the other day, so I reflashed what I thought I had been running before, and now the HQ videos are working with the current market YouTube.
The change between working and not working was I didn't flash the "take1" kernel like I had before.
So this is the setup. I am running a straight build from source, without opengl. I built it myself, but that shouldn't matter. It was built on April 8th, and comes with the standard kernel (no NAT filter or any of the new commits.)
The only difference between mine and the eyeballers (not counting any cherry-picking he may be doing) is that I compiled in a port of PDroid. There are some changes to some system apps, but I don't think that would matter.
Basically, anyone running a straight flash of eyeballer's April 8 build should have the same ability to run the videos with the HQ button on or off. I will not swear they are true HQ videos, I don't know that for certain. But the videos run either way.
EDIT: Let me know if anyone else has this working. I don't know much about YouTube or the whole HQ/HD thing and may be losing my mind.
I thought I had isolated the problem to a gapp, but now am not so sure. I will test again if no one else can get these working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a bunch of stuff, and don't want to keep doing it if everyone can see HQ with the above setup.
Maybe everyone can in any setup and only the few people on this thread haven't realized it yet. idk.

Ah I see you are using a CM9 build. There might be something to that. I'm on CM7.2 . Maybe in CM9 it got fixed somehow.

I thought it was working in cm7 as well. Maybe it was just a modded app though, which is no better than an older apk.
Well, unless someone with cm9 tells me it's unique, I will just assume everyone has it working. They probably do, I have never looked at it before I saw this thread the other day.

My experience has been that HQ sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I believe it is due to the actual quality of the video being played. For non-HD videos the HQ is lit up and the movie loads and plays fine. For HD videos that are actually HD you get the error message and have to uncheck HQ to get the video to play.
I have had this experience in several different configurations:
eyeballer's opengl builds, original kernel
eyeballer's opengl builds, updated kernel
eyeballer's opengl 4.9, updated kernel take 2 (current setup)
I would like to know if others have the same experience with "HQ" working for what seem to be non-HD videos and not working when the video actually appears to be HD.

Netflix on phone to chromecast?

I have Netflix installed on my phone but it doesn't show a chromecast button. Can it be done from within the app or just from Netflix on a comp?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium

Both. Do you have the chromecast app installed?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I believe you need the Chromecast app installed on your phone to get the Cast icons to show up in Netflix and other supported apps.

You do NOT need the chromecast app, but your chromecast does have to be setup and powered up. Should say ready to cast on the TV if you switch to that input.

works peachy for me right out of the box. The chromecast app does nothing but allow you to set it the device, find WiFi etc...

as soon as I open Netflix from my phone, the little icon to send it to my chromecast appears right away, but mine is turned on all the time .... Have you checked for updates? Otherwise I really dont have an answer aside from try turning it on first then launching Netflix

I could be wrong but how is it supposed to detect the chromecast if it's turned off? I would definitely assume it needs to be on.

No Chromecast Button On Netflix
I have the most recent version of Netflix installed on my LG Optimus L9 (P769) running JB 4.1.2. I don't have the Chromecast button, but I do have one for YouTube. My older Optimus V is running the same version of Netflix on either GB or ICS and it displays the Chromecast button. The Netflix layout is different between the 2 phones as well.

Thank you for contacting Netflix customer support.
Here is the transcript from your recent chat with customer support:
Netflix Joe
Awesome. Nice to meet you, Keith. How can I help?
You
I cannot get my Android phone to display the Chromecast button
Netflix Joe
Oh no, that definitely doesn't sound liek a fun thing to be dealing with. What kind of phone is it?
You
It is a LG Optimus L9 (P769) running Android Jelly Bean v4.1.2
You
I have the newest Netflix application installed
Netflix Joe
Awesome. Thanks for that info.
Netflix Joe
Just one sec while I dig up some info for us.
Netflix Joe
So Keith, is that chromecast and your phone on the same Network? We've got a troubleshooting article here Click Here for the article but it says the chromecast and the phone have to be on the same wifi network in order to communicate.
You
I also wanted to let you know that I have an older LG phone running an earlier version of Android and it works perfect with Chromecast and Netflix
You
I've read that article already as well
Netflix Joe
OK, cool. Glad to know your older phone is working.
You
The Netflix layout on the two phones is entirely different even though they are both on the same version of the Netflix app.
Netflix Joe
Yeah, the app varies from device to device based on the system specs of the device. It sort of optimizes itself.
Netflix Joe
So the phone and the chromecast are hooked up to the same wifi network?
You
they are on the same network. The phone that doesn't have the Chromecast button for Netflix does have the Chromecast button for both YouTube and Google Play Music
Netflix Joe
Good to know. Just a sec while I reach out to our research team about this.
I got them on the line now.
Netflix Joe
OK, they're asking to uninstall and reinstall the netflix app on the phone that isn't working.
You
about to do that now
Netflix Joe
Great, thanks.
Netflix Joe
Also are you able to download the chromecast app on that phone?
You
app is uninstalled, data and cache is cleared..about to reinstall...chromecast app is installed and operational on the phone
Netflix Joe
Awesome
You
app is reinstalled
Netflix Joe
Sweet, go ahead and try it again.
You
no chromecast button
Netflix Joe
OK, go ahead and go in the netflix app and scroll down to the bottom and get the version please.
You
chromecast app sees the chromecast device
You
2.4.0-216~40 [US/en-US]
Netflix Joe
OK, thanks.
Netflix Joe
And just to make sure, you are checking both the upper and lower right side of the screen for the cast button right? Kind of a silly question I know but just want to cover bases.
You
Yes, I have checked all corners
Netflix Joe
Cool, so they told me that they've seen this issue with a few LG phones and it's something with the phone not being read right by our system so they're looking into it right now to get it fixed and it should be working with your phone in the near future, they just added it to our tracker but the good news is one of your phone still works with the Chromecast right now and soon both will.
You
ok, thanks for letting me know that
Netflix Joe
Sure, no problem. Thanks for reporting the issue with us. Anytime there's a new device like this that comes out it takes a bit to work out the kinks and people like you really help speed that process along.

I understand. The device was only made available for sale on Wednesday, and I'm sure that you haven't been able to test every model of phone combined with every version of the OS

Yeah, for sure. Well can I help with anything else today Keith? It'd be a pleasure!

I have Netflix installed on my phone but it doesn't show a chromecast button. Can it be done from within the app or just from Netflix on a comp?

Cool, so they told me that they've seen this issue with a few LG phones and it's something with the phone not being read right by our system so they're looking into it right now to get it fixed and it should be working with your phone in the near future, they just added it to our tracker but the good news is one of your phone still works with the Chromecast right now and soon both will.

Hi you guys..I was having the same problem with a Droid Bionic, and I just wanted to let you guys know, I have a workaround/fix so you can get Chromecast working with the Netflix app working NOW instead of waiting for Netlifx to deal with it.

Let me know if it works out! Cheers.

Hey guys, sorry if this is in the wrong section. I purchased a couple of Chromecast devices but live in a country where Netflix isn't currently available. I have the 3 months free Netflix codes if anyone wants them?
