wayyy WOFF TOPIC.. XBOX 360 Live update preview program

okay so i saw this on engadget and just had to make sure everyone checked it out to..
"Xbox LIVE Update Preview Program
I am happy to announce that we’re doing an Xbox 360 System Update Preview program for our next release, and the opportunity to sign up is now available. The Preview Program will give you the chance to check out ESPN on Xbox LIVE, Zune music, Netflix search, the new Xbox LIVE dashboard, and new updates to Zune video and Family Settings on your Xbox 360*. Much like we did last year, you’ll need to visit the Microsoft Connect site from this link and sign in with your Windows LIVE ID that is connected to your Xbox LIVE Gamertag. Once you complete the survey that is presented to you, the Connect site will notify you immediately if you’ve been accepted. A couple of points before you head off to register:
We’re looking for multiple thousands of participants, so your chances of making it in are good.
This is not for Kinect. You will not be receiving a Kinect sensor if you are chosen to participate.
This opportunity is open to all Xbox LIVE Members in regions where Xbox LIVE is available.
To avoid any problems, read the survey carefully and double check all the information your provide.
While both Xbox LIVE Gold and Silver members can sign up, Priority will be given to Gold members in the selection process.
I’ll be sure to updated this post if the program fills up."

Any TV show on XOOM app. Shenanigans? Or real?

I just saw this video on youtube, but I'm kind of afraid to sideload this after the virus scare last week.
Vid
If it's legit, I'm totally loading it up.
[EDIT]The link goes to a Megaupload page and the file is called app.apk
Looks a little suspect to me, but they guy in the vid has the XDA app, so who knows.

This app needs flash i think? Basically searches for shows on video sites like megavideo, frogmovz, etc.

Your best bet for streaming TV and Movies on the XOOM is going to be PLEX, in my opinion.
IF you only have a Windows based computer to host the server on then you will only be able to stream what ever local content you have at present. The Windows based server for Plex is still very much a work in progress.
IF you have a Mac to host the server on then there are many plugin available such as Hulu and Netflix, to go along with local content.
At present PLEX will give you a video subsystem error if you attempt to play video on the XOOM. I know for a fact that the XOOM is being worked on by the PLEX devs, and we should have a working version out in the near future.
I will post here in the Xoom Apps section as soon as we have it ready for our lovely new toy.

tv show streamer needs flash to work. you can find that in the market. Check out my youtube video on how to get free tv shows and movies

also check out jetflicks at the market .

It works fine on my Evo 4G. Scanned with Lookout. All clear. Don't know if that means much but yeah. lol
It works like a charm too.

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.

The app looks and functions fine except it wont actually play a video.
It will give me the message "Megavideo will load in a few seconds, please wait" and then just sits there.
If I touch the menu button I get the option to "Close Browser". If I touch the screen, it shows the progress bar at the top and loads the Megavideo site.
If I use the Karambavidz link it plays sound, but no video.
Frogmovz gives me the message to "Tap play and let the video load", but there is nothing to tap. The screen is black.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
We are working in an update that will be released soon, probably before monday that allows karambavidz and loombo links to be played without using flash player, using the android native player. Those links should work fine.
For the other links, you can email yourself the link, copy it, and open it with "Dolphin HD" browser (free on market). It has been reported on Xoom forum that they can use the links if they use in this way. I know is not a good way to do it, but is a temporary workarround.
More info soon in the application thread, we are working right now on the update, its almost finished.
Regards

Hi
TV Shows Stream v3.0 has been updated now (the lite version will be updated on monday likely), clean the market cache if you dont see the update.
Karamabvidz and Loombo links can now be opend with external player. (the android native player, rock player, vplayer or any other that you have installed on your device.
We will be working on how to improve the other video links performance over xoom in the next weeks. For the other devices flash 10.2 is working fine. (flash 10.2 is beta for honeycomb) .
Please,, report if the karambavidz and Loombo links works fine on Xoom using "External players" option. Thanks in advanced.
regards

anyone try out jetflicks? Its pretty much a membership to a website, but many many different shows to choose from. They seem to keep up to date pretty well. Dont pay for the application its only a link to their website.

Thanks, I would really like to, but I can't seem to find reliable sources for most channels. If you have information about rss feeds or similarly useful sources, please do share them.

Sport italia used to have their schedule here:
http://www.sportitalia.com/guidatv.aspx
However, altough the page is still there, I cannot see anything...
Rai Sport has it on http://www.rai.tv/, you have to select under "Diretta TV" the Rai Sport channels
Unfortunately I do not know about RSS, only about these sites...
Thanks for the feedback anyway, keep up the good work!

Thanks, problem is that sifting through those page html isn't always safe and actually quite boring, but I will try what I can do in spare time. I think a big uniform resource for channels could give a huge help, but there is no sight of it

Updated to 1.4, better interface, some fixes and TTS

[APP] Mood Projector -[R]- 09/27/2011 -[V]- 1.7

Name: Mood Projector
Update: version 1.7 is now live in the Marketplace!
--logging and graphing
--Mango update 2.0 submitted and awaiting certification
Description: Mood Projector builds on the Rage-O-Meter to allow a wider range of mood broadcasts over a larger network. It's easy: select the mood (rage is the default!), choose the level, edit the messge (if desired), and broadcast it. You can post it to your Facebook Wall, to the new Facebook Splosion Stream, or to Twitter (where it will appear the #splsn stream). You can send it by email or SMS. Integrated browsers let you look at the Facebook Splosion Stream and the Twitter #splsn stream. It is all packaged in a panorama control. Coming in version 2.0: local logging and graphing to track your moods over time. Also, more moods! Future hope: user-editable mood templates.
There is also an associated Facebook Silverlight app (with fewer features).
I'm still distinctly in the novice category, but I tried to make this app have a fun UI and decent graphics. Any advice, comments, etc., you have are greatly appreciated.
Free trial, paid version $0.99. Get it at the Marketplace here.

Version 1.7 is live in the Marketplace! Logging and graphing of mood levels over time. Mango version 2.0 is submitted and awaiting certification.

[WP7] Sat Rad Player - Listen to Sirius/XM on your WP7 Device

Sat Rad Player is a WP7 application that allows you to listen to your Sirius or XM subscription on your WP7 device.
You can use the application for free in trial mode which is fully functional, will never expire, but includes advertisements. Purchasing the application will remove the advertisements permanently.
Marketplace link to US version for US based Sirius/XM subscriptions
Marketplace link to CDN version for Candian based Sirius subscriptions (sorry XM isn't supported currently)
Please Note: In order to use this application, you will need to subscribe to the Internet Streaming option available from Sirius/XM.
The current version does not have access to every channel available through Sirius/XM. This is due to Sirius/XM not keeping their legacy streams up to date after a channel reorg that occurred early last year. I’m working on trying to get these additional channels added to the application. You can find a list of channels available at the following link:
Currently Available Channels
Features
Channel guide data is constantly updated so you know what’s playing on each channel at a glance
Capability to store a list of Favorite Channels
Background Audio – listen while running other tasks on the phone, or while the phone is locked.
When the app is running in the background, navigate to your next Favorite channel in your list by using the mini controller’s Back/Forward buttons. Hit the volume button to bring up the mini controller.
Channel guide quick select – easily search for and navigate to a specific channel
Hot List – like the song you are currently listening to? Add it to your hotlist, so you can remember what that song is for later, and if you like you have the option of purchasing it from the Zune Marketplace to download directly to your phone.
Support for both portrait and landscape orientations.
Theme aware – adapts to the theme you have selected on your phone.
Bluetooth Support - great for when you're riding your bike or motorcycle
Choose between High/Low Quality Streams (US version only). The setting is remembered by Channel.
If anyone has any ideas on what they would like to see in the next version of the app, please let me know! I'm very receptive to other's ideas.
And for any issues relating to the app, or any questions, feel free to post them here, use the 'Email Support' button within the app itself, or send an email to [email protected]. I'm fairly quick in responding to support emails.
Hope you enjoy the app, below are a few screen shots of it in action (click image for larger size):
