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.
I saw mention of a few people getting the Netflix app from the revolution system dump working on the fascinate. Did any of you have any luck? If so, what ROM are you using? I had no luck on AOSP.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Yes I had great luck and it even installed perfectly on the fascinate. Only thing it doesn't do is stream video. Apparently it doesn't on any phone as of yet but you can at the moment check your instant and dvd selections perfectly.
I've got it installed and working fine. Streaming does get an error but I saw it may have something to do with current drm setup.

Nothing is corrupt. It's just not fully finished yet and wasn't supposed to be leaked.
Some devs in the hacking forum seem to have tracked to a drm issue. I know in some of the later superclean roms there was an issue with battery drain from the drm service always running so Adrynalyne dropped it from the framework but created a patch to put it back if there was any issue. I'm on sc2.9v & I've got the netflix app installed & logged in to my acct. but can't connect to stream. Anyone not on superclean try the app with any success?
Ran the Netflix app under 2.9 and 2.9.1 successfully but with no video stream. All we can do for now is check DVD and instant queues.
It requires hardware DRM, and checks the cpu. No bueno.

Too bad. Thanks for looking into it.
Doesnt netflix instant require windows silverlight...

I'm guessing beyond the DRM issue, Netflix simply hasn't activated the service on their servers yet for this app. So even right now on the appropriate hardware, it still wouldn't work.
Installed it on mine with rooted, personally cleaned out, stock rom - same result. Hoping that devs can get ahold of this and hack it up. Has anyone tried the playon sevice that is supposed to make hulu and netflix work?
I've tried the playon mobile but it definitely needs an upgrade do to it not having a wide range for working with routers. Believe me if anyone knows anything about networking it's me and mine is setup perfectly to run playon mobile. It has never connected for me at all. Which is a bummer because playon is on all my consoles in the house and it works great! I would try it out for sure because it is actually working for others on there router setups with playon mobile. I'm really looking forward to this netflix app though. I've been using it now for a couple of days and it works amazing except of course the "no streaming" not working right now. I've unpacked the netflix.apk and have looked at the coding and there's nothing we can do to make it work the way it should. In a sense netflix needs to click the "go" button if you will on there end to make it finally work.
I remember hearing that some new Android phones that will use the new (Qualcomm?) dual core chip will have something built in that will allow Netflix DRM to function and those that don't have it won't get that capability. I think it was from This Week in Google.
I use PlayOn for netflix.
I like it because it works but its a little slow.
Video Quality: 8
but being able to get netflix now:10

Does this convert the videos to flash I'm confused? I too witness silver light loading screens every time I'm watching nfx. How might this be possible
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I assume you have PlayOn installed on both you phone and PC, right?
I am pretty sure it is converting on the fly to flv or something.
When I select netflix and choose a movie I get a screen that says "buffering" for about 10 sec and then the movie plays just fine.
sound is a 9/10 and video 8/10
hope you get it working, if you like I can post a vid of it working
Can't wait to get a full netflix ported to this phone. Is this a codec issue?
Just wanted to share what I came across, its was in zoom forums. Its a 10.2 flash with hulu fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12046595&postcount=1 tried it in my gtab and worked fine had to wait about 45 sec for it to get past can't load advertisement but then no prob. Just wanted to share it. I am using calkulins ROM 1.1
I agree that the Flash 10.2 is great and all, but this should be posted in the Themes and Apps section of the G Tab forums.
I just used caulkin's 1.1 and never had a problem with Hulu. Maybe it has 10.2 built in. I don't know. All I know is I never installed 10.2 alone.

Calkulin's is based around Froyo, and when I was using Vegan 5.1.1 I never had a problem with Hulu. Vegan 7, however, is Gingybread and until 10.2 I couldn't watch Hulu. The Hulu performance is...how to say "horrible and crappy" without sounding mean...well it's not great. But it's there!
Edit: Oh oh oh, I'm still asleep and just read your post again. I don't think Calkulin's has flash built in at all. Does it? Did you go to your applications settings and check to see what version of Flash you have installed?
Edit Edit: Ok, according to Calkulin's first post on his ROM thread, it does include a Hulu-fixed Flash player. I guess you learn something every day, right?
Moved to themes and apps.

There are work arounds I have seen that involve going through some other server / portal to that reads that servers ISP and then routs it to you. Rumor says playon will let you access outside the us but its a pay service. Good luck.
Oh and to make this relavent to the origonal post: This flash works better than my 10.1 fixed flash I was using.
I tried the 10.2 fixed flash and it did play Hulu but jerkily. However, I reverted to the older version because Opera Mobile would not find it. Dolphin HD did ok but Opera only finds the 10.1.x libflashplayer.so.
If it had played Hulu smoothly it might have made me go back to Dolphin but....
Has anyone tried installing the new music app? Its telling me my device isn't compatible. Stock the hero isn't (requires 2.2+) but I'm running cm7 (2.3), and I'm in the US. What else could it be?
worked fine for me. just installed it using the link you posted
running cm7 as well
I'm having trouble installing it as well.
I figured it out. It requires OpenGL 2.0+. You can do the build.prop trick to set your opengl version to 131072 and it will install after a reboot.
Oh, the build.prop trick. That's a love/hate relationship right there. Doesn't seem to work for me despite some users having success over at the CM forum.
Using CM7.03
Edit: After 3 hours of this post, it randomly showed up as downloadable on my Market. I guess the build.prop edit worked. Thanks for the tip, maxpower.
Installed it on CM7. There is no settings option I can see to allow streaming.
works...
It installed and works fine on my Hero (CM7.0.3). Not sure that I'm a fan yet, but it works. It would probably be better if i had a beta invite for Google Music.
Yea, the Amazon mp3 app can store music I buy in the cloud. I tried it out, and what I found was I never listened to that music and I've since just downloaded it to my phone and/or computer. This will have an appeal but I own tens of thousands of songs. I'm not gonna upload them or buy them again just so they're in the cloud.
~maybe I set it too high...
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.

That's interesting, what rom are you using?
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!

For those of us who want to use the older version until things get fixed or worked around in the roms, how can I hide the older apk from the market so I don't get spammed all the time to update?

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.
