Poor quality from Plex

I think I am getting poor quality from Plex when connected to the TV its pretty pixelated... anyone else have that? Or is it an option I haven't played with
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Too little information to give you a good answer. But yes, there are options for streaming bandwidth for example that can affect quality.
On the main settings page on the plex app on the xoom, you can change bandwidth that it uses over local, over wan, and over 3g (not useful on wifi xooms). Above 2mbps and all my HD moves and tv shows look 100% HD on the xoom with no jitters, stutters, blurring, nor fragmentation. Couldn't be happier. I'm pretty sure that is the one major setting which will affect quality. That and the quality of the input video of course
edit: Also, I'm pretty sure there is an option to down-mix DTS to stereo on the server through the web browser interface. I would definitely recommend enabling that for playback on the xoom.
Ok all settings were on auto. Changes local to 5mbs but what is remote WiFi... when you are on WiFi but the media isnt?
Thanks

Remote Wifi is when you are still on Wifi, but a different network from your server (at a friend's or halfway across the world). The most important factor here is the upload speed capability of your server. I keep my Local at 5mbps, remote at 2mbps, and don't have 3g so can't comment on the last option (mobile broadband, 3g, or whatever they have it labeled, cant remember).
edit: Check out the Plex wiki on their website. It will answer pretty much every question you can think of. Extremely informative.
Looking better already! Odd that auto doesn't set itself pretty good when its local!
Also anyone have issues with video freezing when going into settings or pausing and the screen locking?

Since when does auto work right on anything?
No issues here, everything works perfectly.

The developer mentioned somewhere that the auto detection is pretty poor and that they would be working on it more in the future. The other advice about tweaking for each connection type is spot on as well

Asphalt 7

Hi sameone know how can we run this cool game on our phones ??? Maybe with 3D chainfire??? I cant download it from google store. Sorry my bad English

Is it because of Tegra 3 why the O4X can't run the game?
HTC One X with Tegra 3 can run it but O4X no????

Any ideas how to buy it?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
i think this has to do with the phone identifier, story says 4x is not compatible,
afaik the 4X is identified as x3 .... dunno, i cannot download .....
i sent a mail to gameloft, but .... they didn't answer .......
This is the best game.....
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
Gameloft answered me that the 4X HD is too recent. They have not updated their compatibility list yet.
But now we have root. If you want to buy this game, you can try this : http://www.howtogeek.com/116456/how-to-install-incompatible-android-apps-from-google-play/
it's too risky
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
What is risky with that? This and chainfire 3d should very easily get any app running.
(Or google the apk)

Why we should use chainfire 3d to open the game? I just pay in google play to download the game and normal to play....

I just buy and download it from Google Play (more than 1GB of data) and play normally, except a little lag while playing.
Sometime the game become not responding if you accidentally press Home and then come back.
Even when side loaded it just loops on intro screen for me.

Are you sure that the files were downloaded where they should be?
I cant say a lot but I think the files should be in a folder named "obb" in external sd, now I don't remember very well...
this is nonsence........
i have Optimus 2X and Optimus 4X.... and guess what?
On Optimus 2X Asphalt 7 i very smooth and playable, but on Optimus 4X it lags like hell and is unplayable! WTF NVIDIA/Gameloft?

No WiFi direct option while sharing...

Can any body develop the mods for LG optimus 4x HD for WiFi direct option to be available while sharing.
E.g. even when we connect through WiFi direct with other phone we are not able to share anything through WiFi direct cause option is not available when we open sharing option. Need some mod to integrate the same.

You can actually download WiFi cast from LG smartworld application.

I know WiFi cast but you can only transfer music, video, photos with WiFi cast but not anything else. That's why I am asking for WiFi direct option. And for what WiFi direct is given in 4x.

Video streaming not functioning - CM10

As the title suggests, I'm unable to stream video, this all happened after upgrading from CM9 to CM10. I've tried different apps, YouTube, TED, Netflix, neither work.
I can watch regular videos just fine, including 720p.
Any ideas what's up?

I'm using the semaphore kernel, and cyanogen nightlies.

Did you tried those streaming videos on any other phones as well.
Yes, the videos work fine on other devices...
I am able to watch clips stored on my phone, regular files, and I am able to watch clips on other devices (watched some 720p videos from my laptop with MX Player)
I am unable to stream video whether they are in the browser, the YouTube app; TED Talks app; Netflix app, or anything else.
What happens when I try is the thing loads, the duration of the clip is shown in the progress bar, but it refuses to play, just goes in an endless loop of looking like the buffering is finished.

try vplayer and see if it helps
I don't think you understand.
I don't have a problem with regular video clips (which is what vplayer does), i have a problem solely with streaming video.

Hi. First of all, did you fix permissions when you installed cm10? Was it a clean install? If so, try to stream your videos over WiFi, not over EDGE network. A few months ago I was unable to watch you tube videos on my PC and on my phone over WiFi (over 3G network it worked) and I called my ISP after that, in 2 days everything was just like before. YouTube worked again. So, it may be a problem with your ISP too (if using WiFi from home although is less probable).
Ultimately you can try dalvik/cache wipe and reinstall cm10 or try a different ROM, maybe it's gonna solve the problem.
I hope this helps.
Naw it wasn't a clean install (when going from CM9), I did the usual dalvik wipe but that was it. I was going to do a clean install once CM10 stable came out anyway, so I guess I'll take your advice and do a proper upgrade now...
The problem is persistent btw, wifi or 3g doesn't make a diff, but lets see what happens after the wipe.
Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
So I did a proper install: full wipe, installed cm10 stable, and flashed semaphore kernel 2.6.0.
After restoring my backup, everything worked. YouTube, TED, Netflix, regular video playback, all good.
Then today, no go, video playback works, but streaming video in either apps no longer works.
The only difference between today and before is that I tried using H/W+ decoder in MX Player, could that have broken it somehow?
Before posting I fixed permissions and rebooted, no change.
Ideas?

FaceNiff for x86 ?

Hi so has anyone got a working version of faceniff for our RAZR I or an x86 device ? I have the app installed and it runs and opens but wen I turn it on it starts then stops right away!
I am not using this as a hacking tool but rather a Netflix blocker
I noticed it seems to stop Netflix working on the net word but affects nothing else and its become a great way to stop my kids abusing Netflix all day
Sent from my XT890 using xda app-developers app
Couldn't get this working either: "Faceniff service stopped" it says...
Yeh I got it working on an old phone I have an mtk s3 clone it picks up profiles but doesn't show stuff but it works great as a Netflix blocker only problem is battery on that phone is gone and it only lasts 20 min
This all works great and just seems to block Netflix on my network and nothing else its a great way to get my kids out the house by saying Netflix instant working right now haha
