[Q] Amazon Instant Video Store - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone tried using this on their transformer? Does it work. I'm thinking it shouls because it is based on flash, unless amazon blocked it for some reason.
Has amazon cloud music worked for you too?

Cloud music works great on mine.
I know the video on demand works on my xoom before, but I haven't try it on my transformer. I should check it now. Lol
Edit: works great on the transformer too.

Netflix instant streaming doesn't use flash it uses Silverlight. That's it why it won't work on android devices without an app.

Working full Flash (not flash lite) without using froyo!!!!

Since I hadn't seen this posted I wanted to let everyone know that they can get full working flash on their Evo's without having to install Froyo. I in no way take credit for this work (AuxLV originally posted this in the Nexus One forum). Without any further delay here is the apk. Just install and enjoy!

bunk then?
if it is bunk (not sure yet) then it would probably be best to uninstall since it is probably slowing down our browsers, anyone have any flash sites or heavy flash ad sites i can try for you?
flash adds are working nicely on gizmodo so far.
updat, its doing something now that i'm on a video but it got hung up gonna refresh, guy streaming boondocks where you doing it from.

Streaming from here: http://www.divxden.com/61jc8zcxrc0x/the.boondocks.s03e04.hdtv.xvid-fqm.flv.html
that site works just fine wonder how bad it eats battery though.
One way to find out lol
I just get little hour glasses in all of the flash spots, and they never load. I'm using wifi, so it isn't a speed issue.

I'm able to stream from youtube with no problem. Are you using android 2.1 or froyo? I'm running everything stock and it's working. maybe try reinstalling the apk and then try closing your browser and reopening it. Not sure why it isn't working for you.
Did you remove flash light first before installing?

No. I didn't have to remove anything. All I did was install that apk and restart my browser. After doing that site that normally would not have worked are working for me now.
Adultswim.com works. Even loaded a flash game.
This gives me a chubby boner.

espn videos won't play!?!?

Title says it all...i have tried every browser, wifi, regular data, reinstalling flash,set browser to desktop mode, and live games or any videos from espn's website will not play The best i got was on wifi and i got sound and NO video....pisses me off because my brother in law has an atrix 4g with at&t and his played them fast and in great quality....anyone know how to fix it or what i am doing wrong?
I don't know what to tell you, but they work fine for me (I just watched one a minute ago). I am running gummy 1.9.1 and use Act1 app for videos and everything works just fine for me.

I downloaded the new client from the Xoom forum and it's working fine for me. Had to uninstall the old one first but just watched a Deadliest Warrior with no problems.
I read that all Netflix video performance enhancers are bogus. What's different about this one?

Ya they dont do anything special i have never seen any change so i just run the stock app as now that it works fine on almost everything no reason to hack someones app as it can only piss off the people who did all the work to make it in the first place but thats just my thoughts
Can anyone who lives in Canada tell me if they can get streaming on their Transformer?
I get this little popup:
This device cannot instantly stream from Netflix in your area. Visit ca.netflix.com/NRD to see a full list of devices that instantly stream from Netflix.
Weird thing is I see people using Netflix all over Calgary.
Edit: Nevermind
To get netflix working do this:
1) Make sure you are updated to 8.6.5.9
2) Make sure you download the latest netflix package here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07...st-phones-too/
3) Install netflix from the apk BUT DO NOT LOGIN YET (If you have already please clear the applications data.)
5) Sign up here: http://www.vpnreactor.com
6) Go on your tansformer and setup the VPN in wireless and network settings. (Pretty straightforward username password and url.)
7) Connect to the VPN
8) Login to Netflix
9) Pick any video and let it play for 15 seconds
10) Disconnect VPN
11) Reboot yout Transformer
12) Use Netflix without VPN

Didnt get to test it too much, but the one difference for me was the red Netflix startup logo.
Before, it was stretched and looked a little "chunky" (almost as if in safe mode)
Now, the "Netflix" Letters are smaller and sharper.
Ill have to try other videos, but was streaming Prison Break episode and fast forwarded/rewinded, and the buffering time was quick.
Before, it seemed to take longer.
btw. installed the first link
Netflix 1.4.0 working on my non-rooted Transformer
I was able to download, install and use Netflix (1.4.0 build) today on my Eee Pad Transformer.
My Transformer is "NOT-rooted".
My Transformer is updated to Honeycomb 3.2 version.
The only issue I have noticed is that "Search" is not working, the Search issue has already been mentioned by several others on this site.

[Q] CROMI X and Hulu+ ?

I'm sick of the laggy stock firmware on my TF300, and I'd really like to try CROMI X, but I'm concerned about streaming video services that may not work after root. I can't seem to find a definitive answer regarding Hulu+, some say it works, some say it doesn't. Are there any other streaming services (VUDU, HBO Go, and the like) that have issues with rooted devices?

Hulu+ works. Other services will depend on how they check for root. Eg., Amazon Prime works.

[Q] Chromecast mirroring of NFL Mobile on Maxx?

Has anyone got their Droid Maxx to mirror NFL Mobile on their Chromecast device yet? I will buy a Chromecast right now if it works with NFL Mobile. I assume if it can "cast" the screen, that if the screen is playing NFL Mobile, it will work, but I wanna check with you guys first.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
I have not tried Chromecast, but I can report that the Wireless Display option works great with a Netgear PTV3000 Miracast device.

The Maxx isn't officially supported for Chromecast mirroring yet, for some reason. The NFL Mobile app isn't Chromecast supported that I can tell, either.
So, no, not yet, anyway.

I wouldn't count on the NFL making it easier to cast games.
They protect every single penny that they make.
Just an update. I went ahead and got the chromecast device, installed the app that allows the maxx to mirror with the chrome cast device even though iit isn't officially supported yet. Everything worked great. I watched red some and some games on my big screen instead of on my phone. It was awesome.?
