Ive used search and aint find anything that had to do with this topic. If this topic has been created already please guide me to the right place. Im fully aware that flash player beta is coming out next month. And im also aware that there's an app called LukLuk in the market that does this. Now here is my question. LukLuk dont seem to work for me it keeps force closing everytime i try and load up the movie list. Im wondering if there are any sites out there to where you can stream movies from? Converting movies into mp4 format and then loading it up to our SD card takes to long. And even when we do get flash player, what sites will we be using to stream movies from? so what sites do you guys use? i have a rooted phone and also aware that the HERO ROM already comes with a flash player, but im not using hero because its very laggy. so brings me back to the same question... what sites can i go to, to stream movies from online? Thank you to anyone who will help me.

I dont know of any movie sites that'll work on the g1...believe me, i've searched...but there is an app called jetflicks that streams tv shows...only it's kinda expensive and it'll be a subscription service by October...there's also a program called doubletwist that'll easily convert any movies you might have on your pc to a format that's viewable on the g1...the good thing about this program other than it's free, is that it automatically detects whatever mobile device you have, no messing around with settings or whatever...hope i helped a little bit...but hey, if you do find a movie website compatible with the g1, hook me up, will you?
I dont think their are any that are worthwhile now.
g1 cant play flash videos unless its running a hero build

What's included in this build?
I'm pleased to announce that this newer build is much, much better than the old beta I had made before (and that had been understandably ignored by pretty much everyone) here's what works:
-Flash Player. Yay!!!!. A build under 87 MB (original build, 89 MB with rev1) with full flash support, both in the browser and as streaming video. It's a resoruce hog, though, so use with care (you can disable plugins in the browser settings to deal with this)

Are you sure. from what im reading i was led to believe browser video works
Good luck finding a site, as soon as one gets popular it's host will shut it down or they'll recieve a C&D. If you do find one don't expect it to stick around for longer than a month. Just use Handbrake or Media Coder to convert your videos.

I wouldn't get cocky if you don't know what you're talking about ;-) ...I've seen videos of Hero's playing youtube videos, and surely Hero's would use the same version of flash as those in our builds...

I Will be sure to hook you up when i come across one. I Downloaded JetFlicks, Its a pretty cool app. 14 bucks aint really that expensive. But its pretty cool a good time killer while im at work. i remember when i had the T-Mobile Dash, there was so many sites that streamed movies. now i own a G1 and there's no sites at all. lol im really thinking about buying the Touch Pro 2. its a beautiful phone. I tested it out for a full 24hr's and returned it the next day because i realized how much i hated WinMO lol. but im really thinking about going back to it. lol

Just like others said don't get to cocky. Not all videos are in flash 10.
I know back before we even had cupcake I was able to go to nbc.com and watch tv shows.
some people have had success with orb but most can't get it to stream over 3g/edge.
I'm going to try tonight to see what I can get. If I can get it streaming video I'm buying a tv turner for the computer. It would be nice if I could just stream the videos I already have on my pc though.

Maybe someone can correct me, but I have heard gmote can do that... I have been meaning to try... Just havent had the time (when I remember to try)..

I've also read that gmote could do it as well, I just wanted to try orb first because I already had it installed on my computer at home. I didn't have a lot of time to play with it so I had the same results as most people. Could stream via wifi with no issues, but wouldn't work over 3G. Hopefully this weekend I can play with forwarding some ports on my router or try gmote and get one of them to work.

Ya this app works very well. Its an off market app. I think it use to be in the market but got taken down. Just a simple google search will get you the .APK file.
And it is Free

I don't know about the OP, but i'm looking for an app that will allow me to stream video from my computer.
That being said I tried LukLuk out and it looks like it could be a great time waster but it keeps force closing on me as soon as I try to login. I can use Trial, but that only gets you trailers.
dont bother with orb you have to be in front of your computer to set up a stream and when it stops you have to start it from your pc again
Tried out gmote last night... and it can stream from your computer, but only jpeg, mp3, mp4, and some others... Can't do divx, or avi.. so not what I am looking for...

This was my experience as well - although Orb worked very well, it would occasionally stop on the PC end. I used LogMeIn to remote desktop into my pc from my HTC Mogul to restart it, but I got sick of doing this and decided not to use Orb when I switched to my HTC Touch Pro.
I found this method by accident trying to play Avatar on my tv through the video cable. It might not work for everyone and it might not work with all drm protected video. I am not responsible for what happens to your device
1 Plug the video cable into your phone and tv
2 Activate TV out on the phone
(menu, settings, display, TV out)
3 Open your video player
4 Choose a drm protected video and play it
(you will see a warning on the tv: TV0out not supported while application running. Phone display only)
5 Unplug the video cable from the phone, the movie will pause
6 Unpause the movie let it play for a couple of seconds
7 Plug the video cable back in the Vibrant and enjoy
Nice find, will try it out

Didn't work for me. Just get the same text after plugging the cable back in.

same here, but im glad it worked for the OP!
nice find! does it work everytime?
I didn't know that you couldn't play this file on any other source. That kinda' sucks. I just bought my Vibrant after selling my T-Mobile HD2, and I was looking forward to watching this via my home theater.
The funny thing is that the previous T-Mobile phone included sponsored versions of Transformers 1 and 2, both of which had no DRM on them. I played them via my PC without any problem.
How does this DRM impact custom ROMs?k Will I not be able to play the movie on a custom ROM?

Custom Rom's won't do anything, except this.
lets say you keep your Avatar movie, on the stock you HAVE a avatar ICON app to press and play, on custom roms, the icon app can be replaced with moving things to the system/app or just play it from gallery or video player.
Nothing more than that.
DRM uses other apps too, so if you were to delete that, other core processes wouldn't work, so do what most people do. Freeze the DRM services using Paid version of titanium backup.
Works everytime for me, it works with movies from media hub also. I don't know if it matters or not but I am on Nero V3. Try the method a couple of times.

Yes, the custom roms contain the software to view drm protected media.

a real fix: download the movie in HD quality. Play it with anything you want, with any rom you want.

Well I'm actually referring to the fact that it appears on a lot of apps. Such as T-MobileTV, Avatar, anything that uses the camera, etc. I would actually like to use Tango with it so that I can flip my phone around (camera facing me) and use Video call with the video input in my truck. That would be useful.
Hi, so I never had this problem with my wildfire. When I click on some videos to play, it tries loading and this pops up."there was a problem while playing, touch to terry". Why is this happening?? I never had this problem. Please help guys I'm going nuts with this thanks.

If YT connection errors keep occuring the try an offline downloader.
I use the one from tubex.me Downloads flv video faster than a Flash player would.
If using a WiFi connection, switch to 3G connection and it'll work. If you are using 3G connection and it comes up, just keep retaping and it'll work. If all else fails, go to m.youtube.com and search for the video. IF it's able to be played on mobile you will be able to tap on the video and play it. Before playing it, the UI will prompt you to choose an application to open. Rather than choosing youtube, choos HTC flash player. It'll work like a charm
Not sure if it's just me or not but I'm having a lot of issues with downloading files over the air using the stock browser. Files whether they be apk's,zip,rar or mp3 rarely download successfully. I always have to use firefox browser for the downloads to complete. is anyone else having this issue? I have already reverted back to stock kernel to see if that may have been the issue. Also another problem that I been having is a lot of my videos (.mp4) that use to play just fine in the native video player don't play back anymore. I just get a black screen of it trying to load and have to use moboplayer which is fine since moboplayer works great but definitely annoying.

Try accessing the videos using a file-explorer rather than using Gallery, so they start that way. Gallery can be a bit picky every now and then, especially if you move your files around a bit.
I have the same problem, it seems to me that direct links to file work ok (no matter what the file type is), but links with redirects don't work (it downloads the redirecting page not the file).
I have a strange problem. Whenever i try to play a video from youtube application it plays a different video. The same couple of video appear whenever i try to play any random videp. The title reads correctly but the video is wrong.???
I installed Galaxy rom hoping to resolve the issue but it is still the same.
Please help

I'd suggest calling a Catholic priest and have your tablet exercised, but I doubt it's a demon rearing it's ugly head in your tablet. Two different ROMs with the same issue on YouTube....it's most likely a YouTube glitch.
