OK, I'll just throw this out for debate--which is better running on a stock EVO, Slingbox or Vulkano? Thanks for any input.

Netflix working on Xoom

I am on a Xoom 3G US on Android 3.1 unrooted.
I downloaded the APK from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15830918
and viola I have netflix streaming on my Xoom.
Yay!
Just posted this in the apps forum myself.
I can confirm it works on my US Wifi Xoom w/ HC3.1/Tiamat v1.4.2!
Yep...amazingly its working...yaaaayyyyy for this and big thanks for the find
Amazing! Confirmed working on us 3g xoom. Thank youuuuu
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
Fantastic. Thank you for testing.
Works great here too
Works great on my WiFi... Hopefully they dont find a way to make it stop working...
Dang, this has really kicked up my Xoom another few notches on the "worth it" scale
Working great on my Xoom wifi, no lag, sound is great, running full screen
Finally. Now I have a little less buyers remorse. Now improve multitasking, CPU acceleration, Program compatibility, and build a solid keyboard dock like the transformer and I'll feel a lot better.
Working perfect on Xoom WiFi 3.2! Thanks.

Its working pretty good on my VZW 3G Xoom (over wifi... as I don't have 3G service activted on my Xoom)
And as an added bonus... HDMI out to my TV continues playing the movie!! (i.e. started playing a movie on the XOOM, then connected microHDMI cable to the TV, and the movie is playing on both the Xoom screen and TV Screen). It looks better on the Xoom screen, as with other attempts at video out across microHDMI to the TV, video is a little jerky and too warm.
Works great for me, now only if we can get the Hulu Plus app to work.....
*FISTPUMP*
Great Find!!! working great for me via WiFi and 3G
awesome! just when i was about to return the xoom to costco
thanks works great on Galaxy Tab 10.1
WOW. I really considered that the ONLY thing I REALLY wanted in a tablet (without even considering an iPad....I'm definately an Android fan!). I have it playing now! This is the BEST! I'm more excited about this than when someone posted a version to get it working on my DX. Thanks for posting! I thanked the guy from your link too.
Works great!
Anyone not able to call up keyboard to use search in Netflix? Tiamat 1.1 US WiFi.

Getting Slingplayer to work with Slingbox Pro?

Has anyone managed to get any version of Slingplayer to work on the Nexus 7 with a Slingbox Pro? I've tried both Slingplayer Mobile 1.3 and Slingplayer for Tablets. The latter doesn't support the Slingbox Pro at all. The former connects to the Slingbox and plays audio, but freeezes on the first video frame and eventually crashes if you try to close it.
Slingplayer was one of the main reasons for buying an Android tablet so I'd be gutted if there isn't a solution for this!

1.3 is very old. Try buying the new version. It sux the tablet version doesn't support the pro. I luckily have the pro HD.

[Q] Netflix HD APK?

Hey guys... does anyone know if there is a working Netflix HD apk floating around for use with the N10? (I know there was one for the Ti chipset devices like the Rezound). It drives me nuts to have our nice high resolution and comparatively low quality streaming via Netflix.
Anyway, thought it was worth asking in case someone has some experience with a particular HD version of the app.
Thanks!
This also drives me nuts.
edit: this apk seems to unlock 720p playback. I tested it and it seems to work on my galaxy nexus and nexus 10

[Q] Mojo/netflix

Anyone experience audio lag when watching netflix on mojo?
It's not horrible but enough to notice.
Is it the tegra lacking or my wifi connection?

I notice audio lag and horrible picture quality. I wish Netflix would stream in HD to mobile devices capable of HD.

I get HD picture from netflix with no problem on my mojo.
My audio lag must be a wifi issue.
I will try netflix tonight with the Ethernet plugged in.
You can try out one of these versions with HD/SuperHD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2305091

Tried this last week. It gives an error message saying to upgrade to the new version right when you sign in. I was disappoint.
So far no one has taken the torch and tried to hack the latest versions to gain the extra bitrate. I'm certainly not getting HD output from my Netflix. Looks completely crap compared to what I get from our "Smart TV." I really want this think to be my go-to media center. Without quality Netflix, it's not cutting it. However I'm streaming HD from YouTube just fine. Love MovieTube 3.1.

It was just my crap wifi connection causing problems.

That link is from five months ago.
Granted mojo runs 4.2.2-
If your saying it will get better with the kitbag update- then I'm a happy camper.

I've tried all the 'hacked' versions listed with no real success. Still experiencing a definite audio sync issue. Why is this? Any bonafide solution pending?

Is this true will all output?
Do we at least get 1080p with other apps at least? Or is this a 4.2.2. limitation?

You get 1080p with other apps, and the default res on the Mojo is 1080p (so if you just have it at the Android homescreen you have 1080p signal).

A variant of XBMC is SPMC http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?8363-SPMC
Thats been working very well for me.
There are many good sticks out there, the one I have: CX-919 is under $60 and has the same core as even the X7 ($120+).
Negatives include overheating, bad power adapter, low build quality, no root by default, 720P kernel by default
