Ubuntu google play video problems PC - General Questions and Answers

{SOLVED} Oct 28,2013..FOLLOW THIS LINK http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/10/fixing-amazon-prime-streaming-drm-protected-flash-13-10
On ubuntu 13.10 and having problems trying to view google play movies,..
Ive tried the install HAL and this happens..
"sudo apt-get install hal
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package hal is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
hal-info
E: Package 'hal' has no installation candidate
Tried everything and researched since yesterday and seen that flash isnt supported on ubuntu firefox and that DRM/HAL does not work and has been deleted from the reprositories,..Im sticking with firefox and no other browser, so how can i watch rented google play movies on Ubuntu?

[Q]Ubuntu on TF101: Flash Player and/or repository problems?

Hi Guys,
i finally manage to get Ubuntu working on my transformer. WiFi (no gui) and Touchpad working. Ubuntu 11.04.
Now i have the following problem:
Ubuntu Software Center doesnt indicate loads of nescessary plugins and software such as Adobe Flash player.
Tried to install it manually with:
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer (tried adobe-flashplugin and flashplugin-nonfree aswell)
but it looks like it can't find the package through my repositories.
When i run apt-get update, which i do every time before installing something, i see allot of 404 errors when the rep is trying to fetch:
http://../binary-armel/ packages.
My question:
anybody got flash and divx running will on their Ubuntu @ the Transformer? Maybe im overlooking something. Or maybe the repositories doesnt support Armel (ARM Cortex) 9 yet.
my Ubuntu repositories
So if u succeded installing flash, im glad to hear how u did it.
Just to make clear, it's my first day running Ubuntu...but im a fast learner
Ty in advance guys!
Anybody? I got the feeling Flash just doesnt support for ARM built Ubuntus. I tried most repositories...
Some how some softwares gave indication that i dont have internet connection, while i do have connection through wpa_supplicant.
Edit:
update, Gnash and lightspark or libflashplayer.so plugin doesnt work aswell. Anybody got ideas?
bump
Also tried dropping libflashplayer.so in plugins, but firefox says out of date and will not play videos without upgrading flash player.
Did you try Running
sudo apt-get update
To update your repository? It always failed for me until I did that.

Yes. I'm running 12.04 with 2.6 kernel. when i do sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin, it says not available but referred to by another package. If anyone has a manual file that i can drop into the plugins folder, that would work too.

[Q] Having some problems with ADB on Ubuntu

I keep getting this error, perhaps someone can help me navigate what i did wrong in my install:
./adb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Edit: After the second day of Google searches I finally found my answer after asking the question here (usually happens that way). Not sure what exactly it does, but I installed ia32-libs package in Ubuntu and it works now.
I was using Ubuntu 11.10 64bit, btw.

[Q] Bluestacks 0.8.2.3018 Some Apps,Games Black Screen Problem (OS: Windows 8.1)

Like others I have also Black Screen Problems. This is not happening to all apps but especially in games like Temple Run , Temple Run Oz, Drag Racing Bike Edition even Twitter. For Games I can hear sound but nothing is visible in my eyes! I think my Bluestacks is latest (0.8.2.3018), I even make a new windows setup (Windows 8.1 is my OS) but problem still continue. So now anyone can tell me, what next I can really do to solve this weird problem?

I think it's because of Incompatible driver software and/or other Windows Incompatibility issue.. Try to troubleshoot the app and Run under Windows 7 environment with Administrator Privileges or consider updating your driver software for your Video Adapter.. If nothing else works, You can always use Virtualization Softwares like Oracle Virtual Box or VMWare or any other to Create Virtual Environment and Install Earlier version of Windows i.e. Windows XP/Vista/7 or 8 .. Hope it helps..
How did you install Bluestacks on Windows 8.1? I've tried numerous ways and attempts but they all fail during install.
You might be right, I will try to follow your suggestion. Thanks

I've seen many people reporting issues installing apps and other softwares or repacks and kernel dll error.. If this is your case, consider refreshing your windows installation of you've installed 8.1 update from store.. Otherwise you can just perform a fresh OS install.. Hope it helps with you..

Troubleshooting BlueStacks Black Screen Issue
I would say this problem is most certainly caused by incompatibility or/and outdated graphic card drivers.
You can troubleshoot this issue with a program that comes with BS: C:\Program Files\BlueStacks\HD-GLCheck.exe
Run the program and save the output to a text file for easy reviewing later.
Code:
cmd> "C:\Program Files\BlueStacks\HD-GLCheck.exe" > GLCheck.txt
Open the output log and scroll to bottom to check for errors such as any missing GL_EXTENSIONS.
If you see any missing extension, you probably will be getting a black screen if the app or program required that GL_EXTENSIONS to runs.
A missing extension does not necessary mean your graphic card does not support that extension, it could be as simple as the driver is outdated or does not have the GL feature built-in.
Your can try to update your graphic driver by visiting the links provided below, use the 'Auto Detect GPU' feature whenever the site support it.
Drivers from GPU OEM should be newer than the one provided by your PC OEM.
* Recommend to use Internet Explorer for GPU detection; Java might be needed.

Good Luck!

I attempted codelover's method, failed miserably. I get so close to completing it and it fails (Screen capture: http://puu.sh/5AlZo/2065d2082a.jpg ). I guess I can do a system reload to windows 8, install it along with everything else and update to 8.1.

See the post title, i was referring to the 'Black Screen' issues.
For your situation, you can try use the Offline Installer to install.
Also check the windows temporary directory for latest BS setup log, the log can tell why the installation failed in the first place.
Why i have black point and quadrate, when i running clash of clans? please help to fix it...

Emulator Kernel Version Missing (Pic Provided)

Trying to build my own AOSP ROM and I keep getting stuck on emulator unable to find the kernel version, though the file is there.
I am using Hyper-V VM with Ubuntu V20 installed and the VHD is exactly that, a .vhd file extension for the virtual hard drive.
I just can not seem to resolve the problem on the missing kernel, also have supplied a pic showing exactly what it says after the build is finished and then I try and run emulator.
Any help or info, links on the matter would be much appreciated and thank you for taking the time to help out.
I have also noticed I can not use "emulator -list-avds" nothing happens. Just exits and terminal is ready for user input again.
So far I did a repo sync again and then a m -checkbuild and just waiting for it to finish to try emulator again
Update: Decided to start from scratch
Changes that I have made.
Using Ubuntu 18.04 for O.S
Switched from M.S Hyper-V to Oracle Virtual-Box (V.B has more features then Hyper-V and is better in performance because of it.).
Virtual HDD is set to .VHD but is on Sata and not IDE now (Virtual-Box only allows it).
Made the VHD a fixed drive instead of dynamic for better performance (Max size of 512GB)
Dedicated 32GB of ram to VM.
Allowed up to 6 cores on a 12 core processor.
might experiment getting Oracle JDK installed instead of using openjdk, due to having issues with it.
UPDATE_1
Fresh build on 18.04 same issues as old build. emulator, avd and android. all not working.
I might have missed a package to download or something or maybe java still is not working. Using openjdk 11 at the moment. I am running out of ideas as to why i can not get it working.
Update_2
Looks like the reason emulator is not working is due to me not installing SDK, I am not using the IDE so I think I need the command-line & Platform tools installed. got to work out how to install it now.
UPDATE_3
SDK from what I know is installed. Now I am getting an output file is missing, but build completed with no issues. Please help, new image also supplied.

Question You can't install the app on your device [SOLVED]

I'm attempting to side load Teams downloaded from Google Play running in an emulator onto my Pixel Pro 7. I get the error in the subject after I tap "Install" link from the "Do you want to install this app?" dialog after executing the .apk that I extracted using APK Extractor from the emulator
The emulator is running a Pixel 4 with Android API 34 x86_64 UpsideDownCake image. I tried an Arm image thinking I had the wrong OS architecture but that isn't the problem. Could it be related to the Pixel 7 Pro (and Pixel 7) needing 64 bit apps and Teams isn't 64 bit? I can't find anywhere that says what architecture the Teams app is and I'm not sure what the problem is. Any ideas on how to get Teams installed? I need it for work but it isn't work adding a google account to my phone although I still need Teams badly lol.
Try the ARM64v8A file from here - https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/micro...icrosoft-teams-1416-1-0-0-2023063101-release/
Install it directly on the phone.
