XBMC 13 with the Note 4 - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone been able to get s-pen detection working with XBMC? And does anyone have recommendations on sources to install, and how to go about installing them?
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app

1channel and icefilms. Just google "1channel addon" and "icefilms addon". The downloads should be in .zip files. When you have them, open XBMC.
Navigate to Settings > Addons > install from .zip. Find the zip files and install.
Go into video addons, install them, rofit:
I have it on my phone, tablet, computer and Android TV.

It could be their servers.
Are you using the same version of XBMC you always have? I know there was a recent update to 14.0 Kodi where some of the addons don't work as usual.

To install XBMC on your phone you just go to the XBMC website and download it for Android.
What I was listing was how to install the addons to watch TV shows and movies.

Get an addon called "Sportsdevil". You can stream any sport, use it every Sunday on my Android TV.

Being a newbie to this, what are the best or most popular add ons to get?

1channel and Icefilms

If you go to tvaddons.com they have a new version called tvmc. It is XBMC but has a pre-install of many repositories right after opening XBMC for the first time. Real easy for newbies.

Also, new add-on I found called Genesis is probably the best out there for movies and TV shows.

nice movie streaming app

There is a movie streaming app called droid streamer pro, it in the beta phase on the market so its free now. it only fills about 75% of the screen but is very watchable on the g tab. apparently the app dev is aware of the issue and is working on it. once this is fixed it will be a super awesone app. i was watching ironman 2 on it flawlessly (except the 75% screen) ....hope that dev fixes the scrern size soon cause that would be a really hot app!!!

US TV show apps

Im going crazy!
I am a big fan of US tv series and would love the Dexter app that Showtime give out for free. The problem is its region restricted and I cannot download the apk.
Same is true of the AMC and HBO general show apps!
So damn annoying! These are free apps but you have to be in the us to download them.
Would any kind American out there be able to host these files so I can download them?
I will be extremely grateful
Someone here could probably put them on multiupload.com......
If you could make a list of the apps you would like, I could try to get them for you
Fantastic
The free apps I would love are:-
http://www.appbrain.com/app/dexter/com.showtime.dexter
http://www.appbrain.com/app/hbo/com.hbo.android.activity
http://www.appbrain.com/app/amc-mobile/com.amctv.mobile
They are all region controlled so only available to the US for download.
So annoying!
If someone could put this on host with multiupload or whatever that would be perfect and really appreciated

Here you go buddy, hope they work:
Download
They probably would try to check for location even on starting.
A workaround is to use fake location apps. from the Market. Once you set the fake US location you can download and stream from any country.
Sorry to hijack but is there a way to watch shows like True Blood and Dexter without having a subscription to HBO or Showtime?
The best and legal way to do it is to stream it. There is an android app called amo Navi-x that will do that for you. On your computer you can use XBMC or Boxee with the respective Navi-x app.
Jgaf!
A million thanks to you sir!
Strangely the HBO app wont work on my Nook but it works on my phone. Apart from that all great.
Really appreciate your help there )
As for seeing the shows, personally I download them ^
They do show on Norwegian tv but always much later than in the US and I prefer watching them at a time that suits me also.
I have a media box that plays every media format and watch them in HD from that on my big screen.

I got the app and downloaded an episode of True Blood but it doesn't play well with Mobo. The audio isn't sync'd with the video and it only plays for about a minute and then cuts off. Bummer.
I use my Nook as a player for videos and have no issues with mp4 720p videos.

It gets illegal whe you share the file, meaning when you uploaded it or are sharing (i.e. torrents). Watching a streaming video is legal, the only one breaking the law is the person who uploaded and maybe the server owner where it is.

Hope the android app builds in native support!

Yeah, there's a standalone Windows desktop app. Last I checked it was still available on their website, although I don't think it's supported anymore.

No go for sling box 500. If so I have to be in the same network and to do that I would have to go from Vegas to San Diego. Hopefully they get android support soon or at least CC supports whatever the online streaming users Microsoft silver light or something like that. Thanks for the info though.

Facebook has a Sling webapp that works on Linux through Flash, should work... keyword should, but you never know
The stand alone sling app is hard to find. Here is a link to the one I use.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20708654/SlingPlayer-2.0.3508-Setup-US.exe
I prefer it over the web apps. You can force it to stream HD and that is nice.
BTW, don't take any upgrade that the app offers or it won't work any more.
Confirmed the FB app for slingplayer worked for me.

Hi,
I was reading through the feeds from this thread and followed to download the stand alone app for slingplayer.
Got the stand alone slingplayer to install and actually can see my slingboxes.
Now - I've looked everywhere on the slingplayer to be able to "cast" it using chromecast but sorry, I can't find any option to do that.
The slingplayer version I got is 2.0.3.508
Any help please to further explain to a rookie?
Thanks in advance.

Make sure you have the Chromecast extension installed in Chrome Browser.
Click the cast button in the browser and you will see a little gray drop-down arrow.
In there click Cast Entire Screen.

I do have the Chromecast extension installed to my Chrome browser and still not too succesful.
So I started the standalone Slingplayer, got the video I needed showing already on my laptop, went back to my Chrome browser, then onto Chromecast icon just next to the url field. No gray drop down arrow to indicate option for clicking Cast Entire Screen.

For some reason, I cannot stream using the embedded player. It connects and shows my slingbox 350 (with an amber/yellow light), but when I try to access it, it says "Unable to connect, please make sure your slingbox is on and connected..."
I can connect and stream using the normal watch.slingbox.com site, but as soon as I use the embedded, it doesn't work. I should also mention it works fine on my Nexus 4 and 7.
Any thoughts?

The announcement was today, finally, but guess what? No Solo or HD support. My Solo works perfectly - hate to buy another box. I wonder what the chances are of getting this app to work with legacy products... They claim on their website that the reason they couldn't add support was because the older boxes weren't capable. If they can stream to a Roku, they're definitely capable. I believe that about as much as I believe the original iPhone was not "capable" of sending MMS. I get that they're a business, but I hate when trying to force current customers to upgrade is so blatant.

Yep, Sling is lying.
I replaced my Slingbox in UK a year ago. They only sold the Solo and Pro HD then. Neither is supported now for Chromecast, despite these not yet being officially legacy

I don't know how many of you have used or own or owned jailbroken apple stuff but one of the best apps on apple was/is . Well they came up with an app finally on android and its awesome especially on the HTC one. Its like Netflix but a thousand times better and you don't need to sign up and pay monthly. enjoy all the latest movies and TV shows updated daily and on this beast phone. O and its an app just forgot to mention that!
Good find, thanks for sharing! There's lots of stuff on there been wanting to see.
Sweet! I was able to sideload onto my Sony Google Box and am streaming on my HDTV! Beats the hell out of Netflix!
Nice find.
Anyone know how to integrate this to use with my ChromeCast? I mean without downloading the video & using strictly the streaming feature.

I know on some tvs if you go from your phone you can choose third party player and it will stream. Also if you have Google TV Gmail the app to yourself and you can install it on your Google TV and it works that's what I did also. Now apple fans have one less advantage over android haha and you don't have to root your phone unlike the iPhone! Haha when using the third party player choose chomecast if you have to use an app if not you can always try the app cheapcast but that usually goes to another device ie. Phone to tablet but I don't have a ChromeCast to test it on I may try to go to my friends house and test it for you
WOW showbox has this season of "SONs of anarchy" which I dont think netflix or hulu has and one reason why I couldn't ditch my outrageous cost of direct tv. If this showbox lasts, maybe I can finally CUT THE CORD!!!
And with my LG smart internet tv, I just "play to TV"
You know they're gonna pull the plug on us soon...this app is too good to be true! I would even pay for this one!!
This app has been on iPhone for a long time I doubt they will pull the plug.

Yes, I have an MHL adapter. Haven't tried it yet with this, but I'm wondering if you can send it to the TV wirelessly from the phone without downloading the movie. I can do that in the Gallery by choosing the LG TV under Select Player.
You can try sending it over Dlna to the TV with the flipps app (formerly imedia share). I haven't had much luck with that in the past though. Miracast adapter should work wirelessly too though. There are a lot on the web, htc 's is the medialink

Plex now works with chromecast without plex pass

Yesterday Plex released an update to their app and it still sas that chromecast is only for plexpass members however I am not a plexpass member and now i can cast right to my chromecast from my phone or tablet. the only thing i had to do was uninstall plex and install it fresh on my device. for some reason if you just update the app the chromecast it will not work. let me know how it works for you guys!

The app version is 3.2.4.87. Make sure you uninstall your current version before you install this version.

Noticed that. I already have Plex Pass, but it is a bit useless to me until the channels are fixed for streams, as all of the halfway useful ones are not playing. :crying:

Uninstalled Plex from my phone. Followed your link and installed Plex, created an account and signed in, I now can access my plex server content from my SGS4 and cast to the Chromecast.

Great! Glad you got it to work. This enables chromecast support not all of the plexpass features.
