Can you watch tv episodes from a CBS,NBC OR ABC website?
I can watch You Tube.
Do I need a different flash and does anyone have an .apk of one that works. I installed the one that was supposed to work with the Hulu.apk and it doesn't do that either.
Search the forums for fancast and hulu and you'll get some good leads.
As of now it seems fancast will work for some titles (maybe all for some users) and hulu is unstable for most.

Hulu works with hacked GLES optimized flash (WIN identifier instead of AND), browser agent set to "Desktop", and a clean hosts file (localhost only). Just don't mess with the video controls much or it sometimes freaks out...
Fancast pulls video stream from Hulu so it's basically the same thing...
If you go to www.surfthechannel.com you can watch nearly any tv show or movie to date. They are hosted on sites such as megaupload and stream beautifuly. Hopefully things work out for you.. enjoy!

LIVE TV ON YOUR PHONE
I wrote this guide along time ago in other xda-developers thread, this is the updated version.
There are several ways for watching live TV on your phone, I don't watch live TV on my phone, hope you find it useful though.
(UPDATE 10/15/2010)
TV SERIES ON DEMAND ARE AVAILABLE HERE: http://x.vu/179650
(UPDATE 7/14/2010)
First -MobiTV
After testing it out it is one of the best apps for watching TV on your phone, there are 2 versions, one included on the USA HD2 and the version found on the mobitv website.
Back in early 2009 I manage to hack the 1 day free trail version, it was after they release a patched version and removing the .vars wouldnt work anymore however I never notify mobitv about it, I never post my findings online because I didn't wanna get sued, however the hack doesn't work anymore.
Second -Mobile free TV http://www.mobilefree.tv
Never tested this one out.
Third -Skyfire http://www.skyfire.com/
Skyfire is one of the best ways to watch live tv.
Some useful links to use with skyfire are:
http://www.myfreetvsite.com
http://wwitv.com
http://www.mobilefree.tv
If you know more links please post your comments.
Fourth -SPB Online or SPB TV http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pocketpc-software/tv/
One amazing application with poor channel lineup, the programing suck (at least for me) thats all im going to say.
(update)
as off June 8th 2010 SPB TV is NOW FREE
Fifth -HandiTV http://classic.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=22918
I used this app once, didn't really like it.
Sixth -artn3r’s mobile tv http://winmo.artn3r.com/?p=12#more-12
In its early stages didn't got may attention because it had channels in German and some other language however it may be useful to you.
"This is my first windows mobile application, it’s a player for online
streaming content like movies or radio. I started this app because
everytime I wanted to view the tv news i had to open the opera
browser and navigate to the specific website. With this application,
only 3 taps are needed to watch your favourite tv or radio show!"
Seventh -Online TVx http://www.onlinetvx.com/
800+ channels this app will keep you entertained for hours, one of the features that many of you will quickly notice and will definitely like is that it has ADULT channels such as Playboy.
"Online TVx is one of the most popular and downloadable online TV programs in the Internet. This complete professional program gives you an instant access to more than 1000 TV channels categorized by genres and countries."
MORE LIVE TV LINKS CAN BE FOUND IN THIS THREAD HERE (which is the actual FULL guide)
Post your comments, links and programs you use.
wow cool thanks for this.
Thank you very much
thanks alot
downloading mobitv now if u know an hacker dont post here but email me xD
Nice one, thanks very much will test it tomorrow..
Too bad none of those "TV" apps show anything worth watching. Wish cable TV would start streaming even if for a fee. At least that way someone could watch something worth watching.
I still think ORB is really your best bet right now. You have to have a PC at home with a TV tuner - but it works quite well.
www.orb.com
...its freeware - and what you end up with is you can stream any TV channel you can get on your home cableTV or satalite to your PPC or any other computer. Really kinda cool.

Actually I stop working on hacking mobiTV along time ago since I don't watch TV and as soon as some one hacks it and makes a post online the guys over at mobiTV are on your case in no time trying to sue you.
i have SPB TV on my HD2, if i click on a channel it says Opening.. goes into landscape and goes back with the headin Opening and it stays there.
Works fine on my HD2
but Ihave a strong signal and get pretty fast download speeds (1.5 mps). Works even better on wi-fi speeds of 3.5+. A couple of stations seem to load the buffer and play then load and play again no matte what the signal and download speed.

I usually dont like to ask for help, but I have exhausted my resources searching and trying things. I am trying to watch hulu.com videos on my windows mobile device. Things I have tried and failed are listed below. Any suggestions, fixes, or workarounds are greatly appreciated and will benefit the entire community not just me.
1: Using Skyfire hulu.com attempts to start the video and then comes up on the screen that hulu doesnt support anonymous proxy configurations and that you must be in the US to view etc.. I am in the US and have even tried using my PC's internet connection for the internet on my Mobile Device and it says the same thing.
2: Using Skyfire fancast.com tries to start the video but just says loading and never actually starts the video.
3: Changing the UA string to various other things.
4: Using Opera Mini, Opera Mobile, and Pocket IE. All of which do not get as far as Skyfire.
Uzard web browser nearly does it. It plays the ads on hulu, but can't load the shows in its viewer (tcpmp).
What would be awesome is a hulu downloader. Most of those are dedicated to porn, though, lol.

Just as you said, ads play but not the actual show. Thanks for the reply though I like the browser.
this has nothing to do with dev or hacking, please post in the correct forum.
moved to Q&A.

I've been hoping someone would find a fix for this issue for several weeks now.
does anyone know if anyone is working on a hulu fix or app for the droid x. I know that the droid incredible has a hulu flash fix and app for there phone. Im just wondering if anyone has heard anything or know of a fix.
When I was on Windows Mobile I used skyfire browser to view the hulu site. It worked great. I haven't tried it on android though, but you may want to see if it works.
I cant get Hulu to show videos on any browser I use on my DroidX..
all say that the video cant be displayed on a mobile device or some garbage like that.
Try bitbop.com, they just released their Android app today to watch tv shows on your phone streaming or download. It is $9.99 a month after the trial, but you have to pay for hulu mobile on iPhone also. The content isn't quite as good as hulu yet, but they are more focused on mobile so it should catch up.
try this
I assume no one is working on a Hulu app but i found a awesome site that you can watch live tv like HBO, TBS, and so on right in the browser, here is the link.

Wow, this works very well.
Aside from YouTube clips I've been trying to find sites where I can watch old TV shows since Hulu and Netflix don't work. I'm not very adventurous so I have the stock build though I did use the Market Update procedure I learned here to get Market now running (thanks to all of you dedicated guys who teach us about these great features And at this point I've spent hours customizing the apps and desktop to just the way I want them so I'm even less inclined to flash the GTab.
Am interested in learning of any sites or apps that you run to watch shows or movies on the stock build. I really hope Netflix comes out with Android support real soon.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks much.
NBC.com works
I have found that NBC.com works using the stock browser and the flash beta linked on viewsonics gtablet site. Does not work with Dolphin HD or Opera for some reason. I have noticed that flash in general always seems to work best in the stock browser. Though the NBC video is kind of jerky the audio is good....could just be my connection...it is watchable though!

Could you please tell the class what rom you are using, and if there was a hack you needed to preform to make fancast work?
If you did apply a hack do you have a link to its instructions.
when i go to watch netflix movies on my gtab the website lets me click on the movie but wont play it. it does it on certain websites too to watch videos. any suggestions?
Netflix is using the Microsoft Silverlight plugin to play the movies in a browser. This is not available for Android.
Playon is supposed to be released for Andriod ..... it plays netflix ....that seems to be the closest, soon to be viable option
Android app supposed to come this century. Hopefully that will help our streaming woes.

If they ever do it that would be nice. I have Playon loaded on my server and using an app called upnplay I can access Playon, but so far have not been able to play anything. It tries, and then quits.

Hey man just use ice films (WWW.icefilms.info) , similar to Netflix. If u have cookies enabled u can save the shows/movies you want to see by clicking on the yellow star next to the title. I wrote a how to guide for it. I can't post links yet but I just wrote it yesterday. The thread is called, How to get icefilms to work on the g tab.
Hope this helps ya out.
