YouTube works fine in Opera and the Streaming Manager app but in Coreplayer Mobile it just constantly brings up the loading symbol when selecting a video.
Anyone else have this or know a fix? I am on Jacks 1.3 Lite ROM with the YouTube registry fix installed.
That's strange. Youtube works for me in Coreplayer. I am also using Jack's Lite Rom 1.03. I did not try if it works in Opera though.
You got to activate networkaccess in corplayersettings for youtube

It is ticked already
I can't get Youtube to work in Streaming Media
Have you tried ticking flv box in the file extensions/
I got an email from CorePlayer makers saying there is a bug and they are fixing it in the next release
I have come across a problem with Coreplayer and its YouTube, so I have decided to use this thread instead of starting my own using the same title.
Coreplayer plays YouTube movies. No problem with that, even more it plays them in excelent quality (setting h264 medium quality, flv high bandwidth). But for some reason it cannot stop them. When the video is over the loading sign (rotating circle) appears and the screen freezes. After a couple of seconds I hear audio as if the video started to play all over again, but the screen is still frozen on that last frame. When I press any button the audio stops as well and that is that. There is no other solution than removing the battery, which annoys me greatly.
Does any of you have the same problem and have you been able to solve it? Coreplayer plays youtube with the highest quality by farand would really like to see it work properly.
Anybody else with this wierd Youtube problem?
Except that it freezes my phone like, every 5 minutes, it works fine i guess.
Too bad I have to reset my phone every time, because if i wouldnt had to, it would be a good piece of software.
Using Coreplayer 1.3 btw.
Well I am pretty disapointed as well. The video playback of original divx files is jerky and if I have to encode I might as well encode to a file media panel recognises. And now the youtube thing. There are still podcasts, I hope I will not come across a problem there.
huh?
i dont get it... my coreplayer plays youtube great, and divx great... i did have the youtube option dissapear mysteriously, but i re-enabled it in the network setting and its worked great ever since...
ive watched 2 movies in divx - one was a fast paced action movie and it played absolutely perfectly the whole time. maybe you need to have certain settings ticked, or maybe the fact that ive used the various tweaks in this forum to speed up my sd card, and to optimize my cache settings and such is helping...
more info may help resolve this...unfortunately i dont know much technical jargon.. i fiddle until things work.
I got my core working again with an update, but the standalone youtube player and panel is MUCH easier and better to use.
Hi, i work with an HTC Touch Pro 2 and on it with the newest CorePlayer. But i can not watch any Youtube Videos. I can search, and browse the different categories. But when i want to start a video the player gets back to the starting screen.
The "normal" video playback works fine.
Why? Anybody else with this problem?
PS: I have activated the network settings.
Youtube has made a change to how their protocol works. CoreCodec knows about the isue and they said they have alreay fixed it on an internal build. Sadly we will probably have to wait a very long time for the fix to be released.
here, some videos work, some others not, like the 70% of them, just try to open but stop downloading without image
Anybody else getting this problem again?Youtube videos stopped playing for me since tuesday,i'm running coreplayer 1.3.6 windows mobile.
Yes same her, my CorePlayer 1.3.6 stopped playing Youtube end of July.
Is there any update out there?
Yep, doesn't work...lame
looked around and didnt see a post here in the g1 forum but it is possible to stream movies from your computer to your G1. just go to www.orb.com and your set. best of all its FREE!
can you be a little be more specific, it will be helpfull if you explein a little a couple of steps for this and how can you watch it on the g1.
note: I'm not trying to be ungreatfull
I just try it and is GOOD (running it, on my wifi) a little slow when watching a video but defenitly watchable, I think if they develope a software for the android like the one for Iphone this will be a killer application.
In order to use it you just have to download the software from the site and create an account, share your media files videos, mp3s, pics, documents and even your computer webcam. allow it in your firewall. Then just log in from your g1 browser, and you are good to go and enjoying all your files in your g1.
I used to use this all the time with my Wing and Tilt. Unfortunately, the video has issues. It doesn't work on the G1 through 3G as of yet. Rumors have it that Orb is in the process of developing an app... but that was spread around back in November. Who knows what happened with it since.
Be also interesting to see devices as PMP's with video out capabilities... something like vPOD's
I am able to get the video started over 3G but the video player keeps telling me "Sorry this video can not be played". I still hear the audio but the video always freezes on the first frame. Has anyone else tried this and got it to work?

Same problem I've had. I have been able to get a couple videos to play correctly, but I have not been able to figure out why they played and nothing else would. Oddly enough, even the ones that would play once would not play a second time.
you can do this with "gmote" also it much easyer
Androrb was just released. Check it out.
Has anyone been able to stream to the G1 using VLC?
I have tried using the same settings as the ones from the G1 video encoding thread (and lower), but it just won't play.
(I know the OP posted about Orb, but with such a generic thread title, this shouldn't count as off topic or thread stealing...)
I do want a DLNA / UPnP app for Android. I can get Tveristy working for streaming music, but it won't stream & transcode video.

I've gotten this to work in VLC in my LAN but not from outside yet. It took me forever to get this far, and I kinda just chalked it up as progress, and haven't done much with it since. Use the rtsp address in NSW or Meridian or whatever on your phone.
need to set h264 to 1,2 baseline and audio to aac in advanced settings first
Code:
:sout=#transcode{soverlay,ab=42,samplerate=44100,channels=1,acodec=mp4a,vcodec=h264,width=320,height=180,vfilter="canvas{width=320,height=180,aspect=16:9}",fps=25,vb=200,venc=x264{vbv-bufsize=500,partitions=all,level=12,no-cabac,subme=7,threads=4,ref=2,mixed-refs=1,bframes=0,min-keyint=1,keyint=50,trellis=2,direct=auto,qcomp=0.0,qpmax=51}}:gather:rtp{mp4a-latm,sdp=rtsp://0.0.0.0:5554/stream.sdp}
In your Android video player:
Code:
rtsp://local.server.address:5554/stream.sdp
Is T-Mobile blocking ports? I just tried that method in VLC and it works great with WiFi on, but with 3G I can't get anything.
I tried out an app I've used on my phone before for streaming. VLC Stream & Convert. Basically you leave VLC running on your PC, the app connects to it through the VLC web interface and lets you browse for files, once you pick something it has VLC convert it to an Android compatible format then streams the output to your device.
Since it can stream anything that VLC can play that means it capable of using ripped DVD. I tried it out with a couple ISOs I had on my file server and they worked. three were a few problems though. Obviously it's a video stream so menus won't work. That's fine if the DVD goes straight into the movie, but otherwise you can end up in a loop of the menu. I did find that you can pick which title you want to play in the VLC menu and it'll just switch over to streaming that.
Also, you have to run the app in zoom mode, not stretch to fit or the video is really small. Which was the only other snag I ran into, since the app was written for phone the video options Max out at settings for a smaller screen.
Have you tried Plex for streaming movies, its a lot more efficient way of streaming to your Xoom

I am trying to stream my anime using DLNA BubbleUPNP. My computer is running PS3 Media Server because its been a reliable DLNA server for me for quite some time on many different platforms. It is hosting over a terabyte of anime.
I am having issues with divx/xvid playback strangely. All my videos that require hardware acceleration (1080p h264s) work fine but older encodes using divx/xvid in an AVI/MKV container do not work. I've tried MX Video, dice player, rock player, and bs player. Only BS Player would seem to actually render the videos at all but it strangely cuts to the middle of the video.
I watch tons of anime so pretty much my older anime episodes do not work but newer ones do. I am running the latest CM9 nightly (3/29). Well any insights would be helpful. I would think any recent player would play my old anime without a problem but it just freezes and crashes. Sometimes it would play audio before it does that.
Sorry if this is in the wrong forums and I haven't had much luck finding an answer while searching.
Problem solved.
I am not entirely sure what I did but I did a few changes to the ps3 media server client and fixed everything. It may have been related to me changing the number of transcoding cores to 4 instead of 8. It somehow thought I had 8 cores. I also added avi to the streaming extensions of the Android.conf in rendered and that may have done something. (I actually dont know what that did but I just wanted to try)
So it seems I am able to use Dice Player, BS Player, and MX Video to watch my videos now. BS Player seems to be the most reliable but all the players seem very fickle. Dice player likes to try HW acceleration on everything then crashes. BS Player knows when to switch between SW and HW so it seems to be the most compatible. I really don't like BS Player because I can't seem scroll through the video which is pretty bad. I've also noticed my video stops for no reason after a while which is frustrating too.
I would like to know if anyone has a better setup with a particular combination that works for them best.
I'm also using Bubble pnp, but with TVersity and also Samsung's All Share. Both seam to work, though All share adds metadata to all your media files for thumbnail generation. So if you have a large library, it takes a while to generate the extra files the first time you start the program. but having thumbnail previews is really nice.
I've also been using Dice player, but on a different tablet without any issues on most formats. I'll try it out on my TP and see if I can get it to work.
One thing I've done, which is probably something you might wanna consider at some point if you plan on continuing to stream, is doing a permanent transcode of your video files. Handbrake is a free tool that allows you to transcode almost anything into almost anything else, and it has an Android setting. I really like how that works, personally. I have all of my video files (TV series, anime, movies, etc.) all transcoded into M4V files, and they all play gorgeously on everything - my PS3, my ATV2G, my tablet, my phone. Beats the crap out of the AVI files, and they're slightly smaller, too. H264 is the way to go, and this changes everything to work great for that. You can even soft-code and hard-code subs into the shows if you want.
As I said, my favourite part of all this is the files are universally accepted on everything. My TP, my Android phone (running CM7), my PS3, my ATV2G, my dad's iPhone, everything.
Hah, I am firmly against re-encoding all my anime because I have a lot and it just bothers me when I change things from its original format.
I wish these DLNA browsers software like skifta and bubbleupnp were more customizeable in their UI. They all function perfectly fine but sometimes I want to try some different layout once in a while. I can see thumbnails fine for everything but I think it would be better if there were more modern 3d effects to sort of flip through all my anime playing small clips. Overall, I really have no complaints of my set up and have just minor stability issues with certain anime encodings.
Using ES File Explorer and MX Player, I can stream XviD flawlessly with no transcoding of any kind. 720p MKV mostly the same. 1080p does naturally buffer quite a bit due to the high bit rate.
My PS3 media server method has stopped working for whatever reason . It seems anything with mencoder avi files just crashes any chance for playback for some reason.
I've looked into SMB file sharing via ES File Explorer + MX Video player but for some reason everything refuses to even run. I can browse my windows shares fine but I can't play anything. It actually worked at one point but I am not sure what changed. Streaming my anime seems so fickle.
I've tried using TVersity + BubblePNP and everything also worked flawlessly at one point. Then TVersity refuses to even load itself and crashes right away. This is getting a little sad.
I've tried Windows Media Center and shared my videos but it magically refuses to show all my folders containing only mkv and ogm files. These are apparently unsupported formats so they won't even show up in my bubbleupnp browser. Somehow everything that did show up worked perfectly.
I've tried and gotten a lot of different ways to work...but somehow it magically just stops working. I am hoping someone has like some magic bullet solution to all of this. As of now I can only play stuff that are hardware accelerated. Maybe I shouldn't be so stubborn about re-encoding all my anime but I really like it the way it is now lol.
Has anyone tried Serviio? I'm getting ready to upgrade my home file server and was searching for solutions when this popped up.
It seems to support transcoding and the like but would be interested in informed opinions if any are available.

So I reinstalled TVersity a few times and now it mysteriously works like a charm. I really like it now. Seems to reliably play all my stuff fine. The really cool part is I can host my files online and access it while away from home as long as my computer is on.
I also tried Serviio. It seems to really surprisingly well also. Its a little bit user unfriendly without a default GUI. I just used the Serviidroid app to configure the Serviio server so its fine now. I think its actually pretty good. I guess it lacks the polish of more mainstream programs but it seems to do the job just fine. I'll have to play around more to see if it chokes on anything.
For now I hope TVersity is my last stop because it seems to work pretty well when it works.
I recently (early February) factory reset my HD+ and then let it update completely to the newest stock software version before rooting it. Now, whenever I try to play a video, whether it is an m4v/mp4 file I manually placed onto the SD card, or a streamed video from Vudu, or a downloaded video from Vudu, or a streamed video from Google Play Movies, or a downloaded video from Google Play Movies, it won't play. At all. It opens up whichever video player I choose (I've tried the built-in player, BS Player, MX Player, and VLC), but the player will then load endlessly. I can't seek forward by clicking the progress bar. When I try to play a movie direct from the Vudu app, it buffers endlessly, even for a video I've downloaded. Same with a video from Google Play Movies. Sometimes the loading circle or buffer notice will freeze, and I'll get a notice that whichever app I'm using is not responding and if I want to wait or close.
I haven't been able to find anything about this issue that anyone else is having. Any ideas?
I'll take a wild guess that its from rooting stock.
