Hi all,
I was hoping, now that the Evernote API is released for people to meddle with, that the big brains that play here might be able to do something about all of that and make it an infinitely more useful application for the pda.
I am an Evernote user, but it fails miserably in it's use of audio notes (3minutes = 25mb WAV file!!!). It also does not interface with other apps at all nor does it read other audio file formats. Not to mention the fact that the iPhone version is much prettier and has waaayyy more functionality -- like saving and synchronizing notes to the device so you don't always have to be online in a web browser to search notes.
Hopefully, someone will find this a fun challenge....
I'm getting my Titan on Friday and I wanna know what apps you guys can't be without. I will not be unlocked so please only include apps which are "legit".

MineHacker (I like it better than the official Minesweeper app)
Headshot (if you like taking self-portraits with the high-res camera on the back)
Amazon Kindle (great if you have any Kindle ebooks; carry one fewer device)
Facebook (the new version is very nice, and can do many things the built-in can't)
Flashlight (from HTC)
iHeartRadio (especially if you don't have a Zune Pass but have lots of data or WiFi)
RemoteDesktop (super-handy if you need to access a PC, though the trial version is limited to a few minutes at a time)
The SSH Client (if you ever remote into any UNIX/Linux/OS X boxes)
TouchDevelop (lets you create awesome scripts on the phone directly, or use ones made by other people)
These apps are all on the Marketplace, and are either free or have uable free trials.

btw. you write "legit"? I would think everything here on XDA is legitimate, even if it can only be sideloaded.
I just realised I could browse the Marketplace on Zune software on my computer so, thanks for all the posts here tho
I actually recommend using the website, not the Zune software, if you want to browse the Marketplace on your PC. It is indeed posible, though.

I mean that I cannot put apps outside of the marketplace on my phone so people shouldn't include them in their list. I will probably buy the developer unlock but the 10 apps limit really sets me off, it isn't worth it almost.
ShopSavvy (This is way easier to use then its Android equivalent)
Toggle (I prefer this to Network Dashboard, works better)
Minesweeper (yay for easy XBL points!)
last.fm
Rad Now (great for finding out the weather radar looks like WHERE YOU ARE).
Angry Birds (cause its more easy XBL points if your any good at it)
HTC Hub (probably comes pre-installed on the phone), since its easy to keep track of the current weather forecast.
HTC Flashlight (just nifty at times)
I recieved the phone just three hours ago and I know all about it already, I'm so in love

I Am trying to make an app similar to Pandora... I own an online radio station
worldhypefm .net and I want to make a custom page coded with php and flash player to or just make a regular html webpage with the content and turn it into an app....
the main feature that I would like for this app to have is the ability to stay open and run in the background like pandora....
leaving the live stream audio playing from the speakers and letting the app user be able to do other activities on there phones....I.E browse the internet, send sms, etc....
please some one help me or point me in the right direction.....
Why not just make the stream accessible by other audio players?
It works with other players with your pc/mac but on mobile phones it only plays back the current playing song at the time and doesnt play the stream.... if tried that method... SO ID RATHER JUST MAKE IT AN APP OUT OF A WEBSITE THAT DOESNT CLOSE W/ Tabs so that ppl could send request or place an ad or something of that nature
EDIT: can't post links, search for "Airvidplay" in market.
Extract media videos embedded in web pages and display them on any player you want! With Airvidplay you can extract video clips embedded in websites (Even if your browser does not support FLASH!) having the freedom for playing it anytime, on the device you want without the need of using a web browser. Once Airvidplay has processed a web page with an embedded video and you extract the video link you can:
-Watch the video in the native Android player or your favorite Android player (*).
-Download the video directly to your mobile device for later viewing without relying on an internet connection (**).
-Send a direct link to the video from your Android device to the TV in your living room or any 'renderer' DLNA in order to play it automatically with the highest quality possible (***).
-Share a direct link to the extracted video by email with a friend or yourself for playing it on any PC application.
Airvidplay is very simple to use: explore the web (or the specific video site app) from where you want to extract the video, share the link address with the "Share" function and then select "Airvidplay" in the list of available applications. If you run Airvidplay manually, the application tries to find a valid video link copied to the clipboard. Before playing, if desired, you can select the preferred video quality within the available (Low, Standard, High or HD). Sit back and enjoy the video!
Currently Airvidplay 1.0 supports the following video sites:
-Youtube.com
-Dailymotion.com
-Vimeo.com
-Marca.com
-Rtve.es
- ... And more supported sites in future releases!
Limitations:
-Airvidplay is unable to extract embedded videos on websites not belonging to the original video own domain. You must visit the original web video for proper operation.
This is a free version and it includes advertising banners. Airvidplay has been programmed in MIT App Inventor environment with minor modifications of Dalvik opcodes in the final stage.
NOTES:
(*) The native Android media player does not support playback of most low quality videos (FLV). To be played on an Android device a FLV player as "Mx Player" is required.
(**) Most web browsers automatically try to play videos instead of downloading them. "Opera Mobile" has been tested as capable of downloading videos.
(***) To send videos from Airvidplay to your TV or DLNA 'renderer' you need a DLNA control point as "BubbleUPnP" installed on your Android device.
Looks promising

How do i paste a link in input link box?
The market link
Download from play Store
Looks very interesting!
I'm using a JellyBean rom on an older device that doesn't allow to play flash videos in browser so I wast just thinking about an app doing what you are doing, like yesterday!
But unfortunately I get an error when launching the app:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
Source file: Form.java
Line Number: 445
My system is in french so it is probably a language incompatibility.
Let me know if you need more info on this.

Link to Airvidplay on Google Play
Edit: I see you edited it youself
Interesting idea, but a NOGO for me as it only supports several sites. Somehow similar to Twonky Beam, it supports also Flash, but less sites.

Your signature is hilarious!
If this works for Amazon's Instant Videos, you'll really be on to something.
this is just what i was looking for.

Could something like this work to make NetFlix videos downloadable for later viewing?
Very impressive and you built it with App Inventor, even more impressive.

If there's a valid link in clipboard, Airvidplay retrieves it automatically, so no need for paste function.
Could you please add support for comedycentral.com, thecomedynetwork.ca, nbc.com, and citytv.com
Nice App! Keep going!
Sources for plugins
Well, I've played with this app a bit and it looks very promising - good job! The only problem is - one needs to wait for the developer to add support for their favorite site and/or wait for site support to be fixed when the site changes the layout/structure. It's a cat and mouse game, but it has a chance of working if there are multiple persons working on support for various content.
I've worked for a few years on a similar project that used a site scraper to get the video links and push them to a media player (the WDTV Live). The project is called UMSP and is part of the WDLXTV firmware for that media player. There are a ton of (>50) plugins written for UMSP that handle some sort of scraping (mostly by using regular expressions or acting as a proxy) in order to get the URL for the video file and pass it to the player process.
I guess the logic behind some of those plugins can be added to Airvidplay and extend its functionality in the future. The plugins are written in PHP so they can't be directly used, though...
Supported plugins (note, not all of them still work - check out the details thread for each one if you want to port the scraping code over): http://umsp.wdlxtv.com/manifest.xml
You can get the plugin code via svn (svn co --username guest --password guest https://svn.wdlxtv.com/svn/umsp umsp-plugins) or have a look through the web portal: http://svn.wdlxtv.com/listing.php?repname=UMSP
The info.php file in each plugin will contain a description of the plugin + a link to its support forum thread.
A guide to understanding how such plugins work (and how to develop one): http://wiki.wdlxtv.com/UMSP_plugin_development
UMSP plugin forum: http://forum.wdlxtv.com/viewforum.php?f=53
Now, I understand that this will involve a lot of work on the developer's part, but at least he can read some code to understand how to extract a video URL (and in some cases how to decrypt it!) to make a specific site work. Because of the amount of work involved I guess the future of this project will be brighter if the program would have a "plugin mode" - some mechanism for users to add their own parsers/scrapers so that one can add support for any site they desire (as long as they know some regular expressions). I'm not sure what the best way to build this plugin architecture would be - could be something simple as reading the regular expressions from text files in a specific directory at start time and associating a base URL to a regular expression, or could be something more complex.
Since site structure often changes, the plugins would be more efficient and easier to be maintained (while still being downloaded with the app).
If you are interested in expanding this application and if you need my help with porting some code from these plugins, let me know and I'll try to help.
Other projects of interest might be the cclive/quvi project (http://quvi.sourceforge.net/) and the XBMC scrapers.
In what folder do the videos get saved to?
is there a chance of supporting twitch.tv VODS and livestreams? i would love it for both
I haven't seen any developments in almost 1 year. No open sources either. I would say it's a lost cause
It's not working any more. Also, it disappeared from the market.
