Best free video streaming app on android - General Questions and Answers

I have been using a lot of video streaming apps and the common flaw among most of them is they are not very fast.
Some take way too much time to search for files while some are fast at searches but give a very poor show when rendering the video content.
I know its too much to expect from free app but and I am not against the in app advertisements but most of the apps are bloated with adds.
Any recommendations on good streaming app that is free ?

Terrarium tv,popcorn times,show box and the list goes on and on
but if you are looking for a app that is on playstore then there is one called streamio

Tea Tv works great!
I don't think because you are using a free streaming app you need to suffer diminished quality. I have been using tea tv for a while now and have zero complaints. There is always updated high-quality content available whenever I want to watch it. Try it out!

Tubi TV, Cyberflix TV, Vudu, OneBox HD, MovieBox Pro, Crackle.

Playon

Just wanted to let everyone knows that playon works great on honeycomb, even though it's not officially supported yet on it, I bought the premium license cause I had the basic one and to my surprise, everything streams and works great, hulu, Netflix and so much more, local wifi and remote wifi too.
I hope they will update it soon to support honeycomb with higher definition and better bitrate. But for now I love it, plus there is a plugin like tv show stream that pulls all shows and stream them.
What is the app for? Any link?
Edit: got it! Cool stuff, I'll give it a try!
I have a play on subscription and i can view all the titles but when i click to view video, it says failed to load

I use PlayOn and even though the video quality is so-so and the videos take awhile to buffer it does work for me.
just got an email from Fred at playon support and honeycomb support with better quality is coming soon
PlayOn will currently work for Honeycomb, but we are working on changes that will improve the quality. As Honeycomb hasn't been out that long, we have had to adapt, and this should be out in the public soon.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you for using PlayOn!
Take care,
Fred

I paid for the premium support too. I sure appreciate how good their tech support it. They usually respond very quickly.
I paid for a one month sub to try it out but I found that I like Plex more. Just a personal preference. It would be awesome if PlayOn & Plex could be combined.
i think that once flash gets better and smoother on android, the picture quality will be better from playon cause it uses flash, i have it on my ipad2 and it runs smoothly and great image quality, also on remote wifi too, which plex couldnt on my pc

Try doubletapping tthe screen. It works for me in full screen, but not when it's smaller (on TF, not Galaxy).
It works...
Thanks...I did that by chance and was glad to see it did work....Can't wait for Honeycomb Version.....Would be nice if it had a better looking Graphical Interface.

Best Free TV app?(besides hulu/netflix)

What is the free tv and movies app for android? That is compatible with the Droid Charge of course.
I'm trying to find an app better than hulu and netflix. All the free one's i've tried in the app market have been duds....
Post a link please if you have a good one!
Crackle
I personally love Crackle for droid app, also unlike Hulu that blocks (unless changed recently) most mobile devices from viewing the page in a browser (such as watching it on xoom) Crackle does not.
I have not tried their pay version but i love the free version.
check out the veetle lite app
crackel doesnt work on the Charge if you find a way let me know.

Best Site or app for Hd Movie stream with no ads Kinda like movies2,go for iPhone?

Was wondering if we have any apps or sites to stream Movies new releases or searchable movies in good quality or Hd ...even movies that are just released..
(Much like Movies2go for cydia)
Something along the lines of that app.
Or even a site that works well.. With no ads or watch ads for credits
Anything better than Netflix which all movies are Sooo outdated.
Not looking for an app
More like a site that I can bookmark and stream Full length movies .

How to change app video play back quality??

Hey all
I'm trying to find out how I can change the video play back quality on certain apps.
The play back stream quality on chrome sucks balls. I don't know why it isnt forcing my LTE to download them faster.
I know this because I have the data transfer rate in my status bar. When I use the YouTube app, it downloads a lot faster and has better quality. But when I use chrome to watch a video, its total bull.
Any help? Thanks

when youre using chrome to play back a video, it can only go as fast as the site that posted it allows. many sites only allow very slow speeds(especially if its one of those sites that posts new movies for free type of bootlegs). and to change video quality per app, that app needs to have video quality settings, or you can not change it.

Dear developer,
This is in my knowledge the only app to transcode the local media to Chromecast! Great job! However due to the adds casting the Chromecast renders not responsive very often. I would be glad to try one of your promo codes! Where do I enter it? No menu item in the app... If this works as expected I would be glad to spend 5 Euro for an application like yours
OK, figured it out. I used MB733T7DKLX6N1DYHGWCDMK just to make others aware. Thank you again!
I will post here my experience with your great work
