Hi. So I got the Optimus V and I was looking at some sites for mobile anime episodes and I watched part of a video and bookmarked the site for later.
When I went back, the video wouldn't play, all that shows where the video should be is a blue lego with a question mark on it. Now no embedded flash videos will play in the browser. When I try to force install the Adobe Flash Player 10.1 it doesn't install.
I've read that the processor in this phone doesn't meet min specs for the latest Flash. Now, I KNOW I saw the video playing that first time. I know the phone is able to do it.
Will rooting my phone let me overclock and get Flash 10.1 running? Is there a way to roll back to an older version of Flash on the phone? HAs anyone gotten embedded videos to work on this phone?
I'm somewhat disappointed if there is no way to watch tv shows on the phone.
Having the same problem, but got just a little further along. you can get the app "Droid Streamer" for a decent collection of tv and movies. free also. I then got "Crackle Pro" has many tv shows but had to pay $4.99 for a month. So far so good,great quality videos. You can also get 6 months for $24.99. I am going to wait on that because i think someone will develope a compatible flash player soon. I offset the cost of crackle by lowering my minutes to 300 for $25/month. Then I downloaded "nettalk" for free that uses 3g data to make calls using no minutes up. I then got "easy tether" to connect to laptop with fast 3g internet, also free!! So for $30 I'm getting unlimited talk,text,web,email, and wifi on my laptop.
Not bad

seems so expensive though... 300 bucks
Yea it is, I have the older non HD version which you can probably find on ebay for $150. I didnt buy it with the intention of using it on my phone, that was an added bonus. I travel alot and am a huge jets fan. with the slingbox i could watch the games where ever i was, and the only other option was NFL sunday ticket from direct TV - which i think is like $299 so it made sense getting one

makes sense I guess. The HD one really provides a good HDstream? I was wondering if you could record shows with that thing as well?
I dont know too much about the HD one, the regular one works just fine for me - i have a 47 inch 1080p HD tv that i hook it up too from my computer when im not home - gratned the quality itsnt the best but its more then watchable (expecially for streaming media blown up that big) . . . upsteam connections from my house are around 800k, and it uses all that is available which is stable for the most part.
I think i saw somewhere on the website something about a Hard drive and DVR functionality.
looks like there is some 3rd party software that lets you record from it.

Yea I agree skyfire is nice try but not really a feasible thing... especially probably not for VGA devices... Damn ADOBE GET WITH IT...
If Playon transcodes the stream based on pipe size or media renderer, you could easily get uPNP working by setting up a VPN. I haven't heard of many other media servers that will do netflix (at least not stable).
Stumbled across this when streaming free TV app. They have a great deal of content, live channel, movies on demand and HBO, HBO needs a Window Plug-In though. The Other players work and are built in, some optimized for Adobe 10.1, the others, not so good. Overall, I think 24.99 subscription for first 6 months is very reasonable for what is available. You can watch on multiple computers as long as you want. Streaming live TNT works really well on Nexus in stock browser. Also player allows you to go full screen. After first 6 months it goes back to regular price of 35 or 36 something like that. But if you don't like you can always cancel. They also have great support, from what I have read. Right now I'm streaming HBO from my PC and simultaneously TNT from my phone logged in at both places. So if you want live TV on your phone at an affordable price,with a wide variety of content, this is an option. It's user friendly with search bar, and built in players.

Must be a full moon or something. This is the app theme section right, No spam here. It's not actually an app but , I thought others might be interested in the option. It streams through the browser live shows that are on TV. Is that better for you?
how legit is this ive been lookin for away to save cash and i can hook my laptop to my 55 inch tv

I'm not trying to convince anyone to get this. I have it now and using it on three different computers, 2 laptops and the Nexus. Just have a look around and see. It's not something you hook up to your TV like Sling Box. Basically it uses the function of Adobe 10.1 and brings a variety of TV and live TV content to our phones and computers. You could probably find these place on your own each site and bookmark them, but i don't want to deal with that hassle. I tried looking for a few places by Googling them, and a lot of times I came up empty or it was just video, not live streams.

Not to be a forum nazi or anything but if its not a Theme and if its not a app then perhaps its better off in the General Section?

In my opinion. It is worth it. Here's what I know works straight from the phone , tried and tested. FX Channel, USA Network, TNT, TBS, MSNBC, CNN, HISTORY CHANNEL, ESPN, FOOD NETWORK, LIFETIME MOVIE NETWORK AND DISCOVERY CHANNEL. All of these channel work very well on the Nexus one right off the browser. So, hell yes, it is worth it. and you can use it on multiple computers. I already feel my money was well spent. And those are the immediate channels that I tested. Very good quality. Plus the built in player allows you to go full screen.
To the person who said something about not being a Nazi. This is really an app or software that works directly with Adobe 10.1 Flash. If you don't have that app, it wont work. So, really this is only an option available to those who have FROYO. It is an outside app, software that works through the browser as a subscription, that streams live TV using Adobe app Flash 10.1. the player is exclusive to them, BoxLIVE TV streamer and that is also part of the package that is being payed for. Without it it wont work on the phone.
The only channel that doesn't work on the phone is HBO. It does however work on the computer lap top with Windows Media player 11 plug in.

Isn't that pretty expensive?
When I go on 1TVPC it says there's just a one time fee of $24.99.. no monthly charges and stuff.

24.99 is for the first 6 months. Then 34.99 for every 6 months after. Jetflicks TV in the market is 29.99 for 6 months and doesn't offer any live channels, but has a wide variety to choose from.(shows). Sling box is connected to your cable TV. Which means you must have the Sling Box and cable tv + the app in order for it to work. Approximately 200 for box and and app on the market and the price of your cable every month. 1tvpc you don't need cable at all. All premium channels work on the Nexus except HBO. FX, USA,TNT TBS SPIKE TRUTV DISCOVERY CHANNEL CNN MSNBC HISTORY CHANNEL ESPN ESPN 2 LIFETIME MOVIE NETWORK ABC CBS NBC all these live channels work on Nexus. Plus there is no interruption like Mobi TV asking if your still watching. I fell asleep watching TNT in the morning when I awoke it was still on, streaming on Nexus. You can also create favorites so all you channels are easy to navigate within one location.
Hello,
I got my Sensation from eBay, it doesn't have a US market, and I'm not sure which country the market is for,
Anyway, the native HTC Watch that comes with it only plays trailers of some 10 movies. The movies don't update, and there's no way to get the actual movies.
Any idea how to solve this?
I think I'm getting more and more reasons to do the s-off thing.
I am considering purchasing the Tab 2 10.1 and have been reading reviews but haven't come across anything regarding streaming media from the network sites like ABC and CBS. Can anyone tell me how well the Galaxy handles this? I'm also wondering how well the Netflix app runs. Thanks!
Anything you can do on previous Android devices you will be able to do on this tablet. So I would assume that you can.
Well I have a Transformer Prime currently but it constantly reboots when streaming so that's why I'm curious about the Galaxy. Prior to the Prime I had an iPad.
No problems streaming here
I have been able to stream movies from HBO.com, amazon instant videos, and other various websites with no problems... I think as long as you have adobe flash installed it should be fine. I love my new galaxy tab 2 10.1, I was thinking about getting an iPad but am a huge Android OS fan and the new ICS is amazing in tablet form... Its definitely a worth while purchase... I primarily use mine to watch movies and TV either through streaming or downloaded movies and I have no complaints...
Well the netflix app runs flawlessly. It's one of the most used apps on my tab. I haven't streamed through any other apps all though i have installed Hulu and it appears to work as well.
Hulu Plus works great, as does Crackle.

Streaming is the big reason I have ordered Gtab 2 p5113--should be arriving tomorrow. I love my amazon prime videos and can't use it on the "other" device which makes me cranky. Very excited!!
yes, for sure!
And for iptv streams i'm using ITPV application from market
Amazon Prime streams like a champ! Yeah!!
Im looking for a good alternative for my Dad to watch streaming movies/tv from his room
Hes not greatly tech savvy. I like the ideas of the MK808 but to find any concise information is hard it seems.
How easy is it to get working from a phone, meaning using his smart phone to control and be able to type from his phone?
Will he be able to use the full website version of Hulu Plus?
How hard is it to flash a new ROM? I see Finless mentioned a lot, Im assuming this is probably the best rom for the type of device?
He will probably only really use it for watching netflix and hulu, maybe the occasional web search.
Now if I were to get one for me however, how well does it handle uhhh lets say "adult situations" I just got a Note 3, how will it stack up?
Any info would be great, what experiences do you guys have personally with android sticks?
