[Q] NETFLIX

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.

M8 Amlogic TV box (geekbuying :~{)

I have problems with M8 Amlogic tvbox recently bought from Geekbuying (and so far no response to emails requesting support - not good)
The unit looks well build and basic performance, speed, display etc is OK. I've flashed the latest firmware (quite easy). But, big but...
UK TV streaming doesn't work properly:
BBCi player app: sound, but no video (black screen)
4od app: plays downloaded videos, but streaming live content gets "can't play this video" error message
Eurosport player app: live content gets "can't play this video" error message
Can anyone shed a little light into what is wrong here please ??
is there a missing codec? or a missing app ?
thanks, I'd love to fix this - then the M8 will be a great performer - at the moment its pretty crap.

Not much of a response....

Response received from Geekbuying was basically,
"sorry you're having problems, there is nothing we can do, if the factory produce an update to flash we'll put it on the blog"
the request for return and refund for something not fit for purpose was ignored.
Here is one who won't be trading with Geekbuying again.

Hi,
Still the same, trying updated flash rom, but so far no improvement.
Happy to stick with it if the help is found to resolve the problem, I'm sure I'm not the only one having problems playing streaming video.

Did you get anywhere with this? I have the same problem...

Try to install the update or re-install the ROM. I never has these problems before

Hi Sorry to hear your having problems
I have just bought the same OTT 4K TV BOX, Quad core, 2GB ram 8GB internal from amazon listed as fully loaded and rooted.
I can only speak for my box purchased sept 2014 and so far it works flawlessly... if you want UK live channels (i'm in uk anyway) google
for Mobdro.apk and install it to the device it works and stream a multitude of channels including all uk channels.
The included XBMC 13.1 works well and is preinstalled with all the popular video addons which auto update to fix dead links and non working
streams and 80% stream very well, yes some links are dead but thats the nature of the 3rd party apps put on these devices, the manufacture
and seller has NO control over these links etc.
I have taught myself how to completely reinstall the devices firmware and do a reinstall of apps and even the XBMC custom setup and again the
box works perfectly. To backup XBMC use USB SD Card pluggin 1.1.6 it's by far the quickest and best option to avoid problems.
My box has a startup logo saying Droidplayer.co.uk if yours is the same google them, go to their website where you can download the
DP app v2.1, put this on the device, uninstall XBMC and reinstall it via the app which will also redo the custom addons (big download though)
Early days for me but so far so good, box is well made with slightly skittish software here and there due to the 3rd party apps etc.
Provided remote is rubbish so have ordered a 3 in 1 air mouse keyboard remote.

Not much progress

Hi,
Not much progress really, I've flashed various upgrades (now on 7/22 firmware) with a little improvement; 1024p HD now works for playing videos (best with MXplayer so far) and BBCi player now works in HD, but no progress with Eurosport Player which refuses to play the live streaming data "cannot play this video" - yet it will play the videos from previous days. I guess either Eurosport use a different format for the live stream and the M8 is missing either a codec or some DRM data.
It is such a shame because my main use for a tv box is Eurosport player, then video quality overall is the best of any Android TV boxes I've tried, but the others all worked with Eurosport !
Does anyone have any clues ??

I hope you've managed to get this sorted by now. But I just got mine and had the exact same problem as you did. Reading this thread, and the response from @leezaal got me thinking about using the stuff from droidplayer.co.uk and sticking it on my box. So I tried it, and it works like a charm. Here's the link to get it working for anyone who's looking at this:
http://www.droidplayer.co.uk/blog/?p=351
So all in all, follow that link and you should be sorted, thanks to @leezaal and the fully loaded XBMC from that website is very useful.

Hi Willmott1992 and thanks for your offer of help, but it didn't.
I have lots more in XBMC (I guess this is "video underground"), but my subscribed Eurosport Player still won't / can't play live video stream and the problem only seems to exist with the M8 box.
Does anyone know what codecs / DRM files are required to enable the Eurosport Player app to function ?

Vega S89 wont play live stream on Eurosport player to. Subscription is ok, it works on other devices (Galaxy Tab p7500 with4.4.4, P6 and Xperia L.

Hi X1iGGVV,
Thank you for your response.
Do you (or anyone else) know why Eurosport Player won't play ?? This is what I'm trying to find out and hopefully find a fix.
I contacted Eurosport technical support and their reply was (as expected) 'Android TV box is not supported, only phone and tablet' - loosely translated as we don't want to know - funny because it works on my old Justop Droibox Lite tv box. Sadly they wouldn't answer the question what codecs are required for it to work.
If Eurosport player works on most android devices (including TV boxes) then it ought to work on a high spec. unit like the M8 ??

Hi!
I have try to get some help from Huawei P7 community, and instructions about to get colection of missing Codecs. It is about streaming codecs and compatibility with Mali-450 GP. P7 have the same graphics and there is a product that is made for Europian countrys. Hope to get some respons from the owners or developers for P7, just for the reason that is wrighte HW and tha I know that Eurosport Player working on P7. Specific Codecs have to be coped in the Vega box and in the directories that Eurosport Player looks for the codesc. I know tha this is a way looking backwords for Vega development just for that fokus is on 4K videos playing a lokal and not sreaming. I´ll not give upp, it will works!
On the other side I can undersend Eurosport Player support team that no help leaks from the team about hardware that is not fully compatible (codecs include) with europian market. It is not Eurosport team that have to fix it. It.s a developers of HW that have not think about something that is far away from China , Eurosport Player works from Europian IP networks and it is not posible for China developers to check upp every single app.
Best regards from Sweden

I have never had a problem yet and I use the latest kodi isanguard and the hushmar repo to install everything...
I only use my box for kodi so its set up to auto boot kodi with xbmc launcher apk, I also have kore apk installed on my htc one to remotely use kodi its pretty cool....

Which add-ons are you trying to us for LIVE TV watching ? Filmon is always a valuable source.

[APP][4.3+] StreamlineWatch - Find all your tv shows and movies in one app

Hello all,
StreamlineWatch is an app to watch all your favorite movies and tv shows from many streaming providers such as Netflix, HBO, Hulu but also free replays from abc, FOX, CBS and many others (as well as TV Everywhere if it happens you still have the cable) in one simple app.
This is more a new interface to replace all these apps than just a movie search engine to check if a movie that you would like to watch is available in one of your subscriptions.
How many times did you watch a movie or tv show because one of your friend or colleague recommended it to you ? StreamlineWatch allows you to recommend to your friends the content that you really liked but also check what they recommended to you.
Happy to hear any feedback !
Download: Google Play Store
Landing-Page: https://streamlinewatch.com/
Youtube Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yFqOnaE8eU

I am trying to improve so any feedback would be greatly appreciated !

Everything listed here is using legal video sources, correct?

Yes exactly. In order to watch Netflix content you need to have a subscription to Netflix, same for HBO, Amazon Prime... If you don't have any streaming subscriptions, you can still view all the free replays that you could normally find on the app of abc, CBS, Comedy Central, Crackle...
The objective is to gather all your content in one app to get better recommendations and find what you actually already have access to (a friend discovered later with StreamlineWatch that he paid for a movie while it was actually available on his Amazon Prime subscription for free).

Unfortunately the rights are different across regions so the app is only available in the USA for now. I am trying to expand though .

Thanks for the answer! Your app looks very interesting.

Any expansion for India

"This app is incompatible with all of your devices." LG G4 and Nexus 5 both running LineageOS 14.1. Located in the UK (Netflix is available at least). Not sure why they're incompatible, any idea?

This would be great for Android TV, but it doesn't appear to be supported.

Unfortunately StreamlineWatch is only available in the US for now but I'm working to expand in other countries. Why does it only work in the US for now ? Because even if Netflix is available in the UK, their movies/TV shows rights are different across countries and StreamlineWatch only contains the US catalogs of shows for now.

Totally agree, I'm working on it as well, hopefully available this summer . It's available on phone or tablets but you can also use it with your Chromecast for example or any cast to recent smart TVs.

Doesn't support nexus 5x ?

It should. Are you in the US ? If no, the app is unfortunately only available in the US for now but I'm working on developing asap abroad. I don't understand why the Google Store talks about device support instead of country location though...

Yes and no. I'm interested in a better option.

Suggestions:
Add Chromecast Support. Everyone wants to be able to cast it to their TV.
Add NBC and NBC Sports support
Many broadcast network apps (NBC, ABC, FOX, etc) have the ability to login through your cable subscription (DirecTV, Xfinity, Cox, etc). Once you login, you can view MUCH MUCH more content because you verified you pay a cable provider to view. Please add this capability.

Just please add support for other countries! Like Mexico, supported by services like Netflix, HBO, Amazon Prime and Crackle. Thank you!

So, have been using this app since quite sometime and I find it wonderful the way we can get almost all channels on our smart phone/firestick. Developers of this app are friendly and add more features with every update. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for downloading our app

I'm new to using this app. Does it work in the United States. Because every time I cuts on it it's a black screen.

With the latest version ThopTV is really improved a lot, I think soon they will surpass other free IPTV apps.

Thread Closed.
Thanks
