Stream Audio From Tab and Show HTML Page [Solved] - Google Chromecast

Hi everyone!
I'm working with a friend to make a app that we're kind of keeping low-key for the time being, but I had to ask about one of the concepts we were thinking about doing. Okay, so would it be possible to stream the audio from a tab to the Chromecast while showing a HTML page that we are making for the visual? The way we envision this working is through an app that communicates with the webpage and the Chromecast. Theoretically, is this possible?
Thanks in advance, everyone

Easy answer, Yes.
The thing you are looking for is a "Custom Reciever" application. If you google it you will find both code examples and a lot more information. (Can't link, new member)

Okay, awesome! That's really helpful. I'll have a go at that once we start getting back to the code once again. I really appreciate it

video chatting

What is the best app for video chatting form my gtab running TnT lite lastest. My wife uses Win-win on her laptop. Are there any that are stand alone no need for an internet connection just a home network.
Not exactly answering your question I'm afraid, but Yahoo messenger works for me for video chat between my wife's laptop and my G tab (or is that the other way around?)!
Could you please give your version of Yahoo Messenger + Video plugin
My version force close.
Thanks.
Under "About Messenger", it says version 1.3.1.4583
I don't know how to find info about the video plugin?
Could you attach apk for both please?
I am not able to find Yahoo messenger in the market. I did find a Y! Suites app an installed it it had a link for messenger when I clicked on it I was prompted to login so I did. I was then shown a offer to install yahoo messenger for Android, I click on it and get a,message that the protocol is not supported.
That is Odd. I was able to install Messenger 2 weeks ago on my GTab and now the market is showing the same results as you. No Messenger available to download.
I did find that it can be searched for from the PC web page, but mine shows installed already. Can't verify if it still be sent to GTAb or not. Might want to try that route.
Glad, I am not the only one having the app not found issue. Thought I was having problems with the market. I have had problems finding other apps that have been mentioned in the GTablet forum.
Anybody have a solution or a better suggestion as to which app to use that will allow me and my wife and kids video chat. Would really like to find an app that would allow this while not necessarily connected to the internet but still connected to a wifi home network.
As far as I know, there is software that allows video conferencing, but I highly doubt that they have been ported to google apps. I know most of those out there are meant for corporate use.
but there is a simple solution to video over your home wifi. move your location so you are in close proximity to your wife and talk to her....lol.
All joking aside I wish I could help you, but until someone creates an app that allows video over private wifi, your kinda stuck.
But I can confirm that yahoo video does work.
I thought thier is a new Skype release just out.

It's possible to run my ReelPortal app within your own network, because the server software is also available for free. However, there's a catch, when you first start the ReelPortal app, it needs internet access to retrieve data to start up. After that, you can unplug the internet, and it would work fine. Another catch is P2P mode would not work without internet access, because P2P actually relies on an Adobe server. But within your own network, Client-Server mode would be fine, because you'd be using your own server.
ReelPortal is designed to run indefinitely, so unless you exit the app, you don't need to reconnect the internet. When set up properly, it can serve as a video intercom within your home/office.
A brief description of ReelPortal: http://reelportal.blogspot.com/p/read-me.html
If you're interested, here's a long thread on using it with the gTab:

This thread, with confirmation from a Skype staff member, seems to say that it IS coming for Android but will be locked to a carrier - Verizon. Not sure what this means in terms of XDA being able to hack it for other devices, but there you have it.

Of course. It seems like everything is going the way of the AT&T/iPhone. "No one else can have it." That's crap.

[Q] Show the screen @ computer

Hello, I have to make an presentation showing an app I have developed. I have a SGS i9000 and I'd need to show the phone's screen at my computer's screen.
I'm looking for a program or way to do it, if posible avoiding tv output and other wired methods. Thanks in advance
There are a ton of apps that can do this, just search on los googles.
And this is definitely not even remotely related to Development, why on earth did you post here?

2 PDFs open at the same time and bluetooth?

Hey all!
I've had the tab for a while and its pretty much been with me for UNI alot more than my laptop.
I don't do much word processing, but alot of PDF reading. Sometimes I'd need to have 2-3 PDFs open (e.g one is the assignment question and one is reference). It's a real hassle having to open and close a PDF and also scroll back to were I was before.
I've read the Notion ink has "panels" where things are open at the same time... but that is a whole ROM thing. Any ideas?
Also, having seen the HP touchpad and pre phones, that "tap to share" feature is cool. I know its more a hardware thing, but I also know there is an app called bump which sends pics via bumping the devices.
Thing is, you need to be online for that. I'd usually tether my phone so that my tab has internet, but is there an equivalent using bluetooth? Bump to send anything would be nice!
Thanks in advance!

Any idea how to read 2 or more PDFs? I don't mean side to side (though that would be nice), even if I can just jump between two without reloading and all would be good enough

No problem.
Don't think there's an app on android as of yet on reading 2 PDF's at the same time, think there's a one in the Appstore (kno) but obviously that won't work on the Galaxy tab or any other android devices.

Well you can use 2 different pdf readers, and you can switch with the home button, by long pressing then chose the reader.
Hope it helps.

I actually just thought of that today too! I had repligo reader open and thought i might be able to open another PDF in adobe
I haven't exactly tried it, but I'll be back to report
I don't know if it will directly help or not, but there are apps that let you tether through Bluetooth. If I am not mistaken, PDAnet is one such app.

Xposed module for AA

Hi,
I only like to start a thread about the development of an Xposed module for tweak AA.
Someone is interested on it?
Reagards!

Oh yes - I would be very interested. I just have to wait for another 1-2 months until my car (A4) with AA/CarPlay support will be delivered.
Unfortunately I am not a developer but I'd be one of your first supporters and I will gladly test anything you guys develop .
Since Android Auto has a lot of limitations, an exposed module would be the best way to get rid of them.
Not a lot of replies. Looks like there are still not enough people who have Android Auto . We'll have to wait until it catches on I guess.
yes - I think so, too. But I am also still hoping, that manos78 will start the development anyway
Absolutely. For example here maps for Android Auto would be awesome
would also love to see some android auto mods
Me too !
Let me know if I can help by anyway
I'm interested.
I've got a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX on the way, so I'll be looking at doing some Xposed work, depending on what functionality is missing. Not everything can be done via Xposed (like making Waze work over AA), but it would be good to get an idea of what sort of additional functionality people are looking for on the AA platform.

Hey, it would be great to get rid of the limitation of only viewing few entries in a list when scrolling... I believe this is tracked via GPS, so it would be great to feedback a velocity of 0 to this process only.

Yep I only know about spotify and gmusic as well. You just end up using your Phone in the Hand, there's really no point in this restriction

Is there an error message shown when you've hit this limitation? I've found "Unlimited browsing is disabled because car is not parked." in the AA apk, but I'm not sure if that's the proper verbiage when it's limiting listview scrolling.

Yes. If you've reached the tap limit you'll get a "you cannot continue browsing unless you're parked" message.

Im sure it that setting. They all seem to have this scrolling limit once you get past say...5 items or so.

I still have my NEX on my workbench, so I can test this out later tonight. I believe it's in the AA SDK, so that individual apps don't have to determine if the vehicle is in motion or not. Shouldn't be too hard to work around.
Here's a request:
Would like to manage what apps show up on Android Auto (headunit)
For example, sideloaded apps currently do not show up

[Help] Override app links?

Whenever I click a specific URL in my browser (chromium-based right now), I want the URL to be sent to tasker directly instead of being opened in the actual browser. Chromium based browser usually lets you link youtube-urls to the YouTube app as an example. Is there a way to override/modify these app links and redirect them to another app instead?

Just out of curiosity, why would you need this in place? I'm having issues trying to get adm to take over from certain URLs.

AutoTools offers Web Screens. One of them is a Youtube player which plays videos on a floating windows. I thought it would be nice to make it pop up whenever I click a Youtube-url instead of it opening in the app.
I haven't spent a lot of time pondering this, but maybe you could repurpose this clipboard manager task.

Hey man, have a look at AT Player
You might be able to get it to do just that. Idk

The way I do it is use AutoShare commands. You can share the link instead of clicking on it, and it runs the YouTube web Screen. You can also watch the clipboard, as someone else mentioned, and if it matches http*youtu* run the task.
