So the other day I wanted to get the url for a YouTube video so I went to desktop and to my amazement
the video started playing in the standard YouTube format thing like if I have flash. So I wondered is this HTLM 5 so I got an iphone 4and it said you need flash to watch this. But also I loaded a site where it had flames in the background like flash content can anyone else confirm. I went to Oregoncrusaders.org (its a drum crops )
Pu
I believe it is only flash light.

I have a stock EB13 that has been rooted via oneclickroot cwm 2.5.5 - no roms or kernels except stock, the only that I have done is install the camera/video lag fix
Question, I have and identical setup (same apps, launcher, etc) of my Epic on my Samsung Moment that I keep as a spare. I don't know when it happened, possibly after my froyo upgrade, but I have an app called Movie, and when I open it, it says Flixster.
My Moment with eclair 2.1 and "when" my Epic was on elcair 2.1, they both could play the movie trailers from that app, but now that my Epic has froyo 2.2.1, it cannot play any movie trailers from that app- it simply says it cannot play video, now I was able to have my Epic play one movie trailer right after I flashed the EB13 camera/video lag fix. I thought that was the problem so I flashed it again, but it didn't work. So it's got to be a software glitch, but from what app? Was it the camera/video lag patch. I could always go back I guess to stock kernal with the bad code in it and see. I hope it is not froyo that is the cause.
Can anybody with an Epic with froyo 2.2.1 try and play a movie trailer if they have that app and let me know if it works? - fyi, it is a very nice app if you do not have it.
All other media functions, for that matter everything else works perfect on my Epic.
Thanks!
i have the same exact problem and just deleted my post on this after i saw yours....
i have no idea what to do...i used this app quite a bit as well....
funny how nobody on the Market is complaining about this not working with Froyo....maybe there is an apk that the Syndicate rom excludes, that Flixster is looking for?
not sure
On eb13, have not flashed a replacement kernel for the camera fix. Just watched 2 trailers no problem.
try clearing app data?

I actually did the camera patch fix on my stock kernel, I wonder if that is the cause of it although I saw the code of the patch and can't see how it would have affected it.
Anyways, I can play any movie or trailer on my browser and apps that are like Flixster.
Clearing what app data? - if you mean Flixster itself, that I haven't tried, but I have uninstalled and reinstalled it a few times with the same no play results - you would think uninstalling would in a way erase the app data?
I have been able to make it play a few times out of like 10 tries - but that is not acceptable to me, especially since my phone works perfect in every other way - oh well, at least I have replacement type apps that do the same function. Its just I was so use to Flixster - I used it all the time
Try going to settings -applications- manage apps - Movies - clear data. Then try to view a trailer again.

Some people are having problems when hooking up their HDMI connection to their tv so I thought I would share my findings.
Problems: Youtube keeps blinking, Moboplayer lags and blinks, ETC.
I had the same problem also. I originally thought it was the HDMI cable so I bought another one and tested it, same problem. So i decided to play around with it some more and may have found something.
Here is a temporary solution which I have found to make it work flawlessly:
1. Go to the market and download aDownloader. (It's a torrent program, don't worry, you won't be downloading anything)
2. Turn on the program and download a torrent, any torrent is fine and have that torrent run for a few seconds. Once that is done, pause the torrent. There should be a popup notification, please ignore that.
3. Hook up the HDMI and turn everything on, everything should be working 100%. You will not see the notification from aDownloader popup on your tv.
There will not be anying flickering or blinking or any lag with this method. I will be using this until a fix comes up hopefully with the next update.
Let me know if this works!
im not getting a popup from it. But, I like the program.
hm maybe because I'm using launcherpro? Not sure hope it works tho.
forgot to mention, did not work.

Ok guys, i figured out why it's not working for you guys. I changed #2.
There was an extra step I noticed that was needed to make this work. All you have to do is download any torrent, either its a picture, music, video or anime file, have that torrent run for 1-2 seconds, then pause that torrent.
This should be working now.

My guess? The torrent app holds a wake lock while it's running and prevents the device from going to sleep.
yeah, didnt help at all. In fact the notification showed up on my TV. Flickering.
It could be the ratio of the tv, mines is on scan however it should be 16:9.
Has anyone figured this out I called ASUS and they had no known issues regarding this

I don't know if this is the right place for this but I have done a series of troubleshooting:
I ripped a few movies using DVD Catalyst (great program btw) to both my SAmsung 500GB usb hdd and the 16gb Class 6 Patriot micro sd card (same movie).
Played the video with HDMI (from the SD carc) on my TV using mobo and it was flickery and choppy and unviewable overall. Used the "movie" program and it viewed fine, although at a lower resolution (4:3) and quality, but viewable.
Tried the same thing with the USB HDD and worked perfect with mobo.
I have a stock TF with the latest updates as well as a new dock with the latest updates too.
I'm satisifed with the ability to use the usb hdd, but I'm just curious as to any thoughts on why the SD card didn't work... I also speed checked the sd card using H2testw_1.4 for the complete card (not just a short check) and it came back good, no problems or issues.
Thoughts?

So it finally came out but only supports a limited number of handsets. On the official blog they say there is no consistent video playback mechanism on Android so they have to test with each phone. Seems dumb that they wouldn't test on a Tegra 2 phone right out of the gate, since that would essentially mean compatibility with ANY Tegra 2 device...
APK
Anyone have the apk? Would like to test on my atrix.
i bet you it has far less to do with playback on each device, and more to do with locking down the video feed for each device.
I think most if not all the supported handsets right now have qaulcomm chipsets.

Meh, don't care about netflix anyway.
Working great on my buddys Evo 4g. Still a little choppy compared to the iphone but its a start. Hopefully with my faster data and dual core the atrix will handle it.
They got it to work on nook color by just editing the build.prop
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
And then rebooting.
Has anyone else tried this?
Ya didn't work for me
neone else?
There is another thread about this. I played with the build.prop on atrix, comparing it to my evo with cyanogen7. I copied all relavant info I could think of, but it didn't work, and it broke swype. There are a lot more fields in the atrix than the evo.
With no edits I can load the app and manage my queue, but I get an error when I try to play. After I edit, the app never even loads.

Care to elaborate? You don't mean that you can stream Netflix on an Atrix, do you (and if by some chance yes, how?)?
On my atrix it says your "device is not supported "

I am using that also and have the same problem. It's better than nothing though.
This modified APK works great for me. I just watched something over 3G, we only have 1-2 mbits here in DC and it looked GREAT, no pixelation or artifacts.
The picture is using the full display but there is a quarter inch green bar at the bottom. However, the bar is just overlaying the picture like a filter. It might be where the CC would be. You can still see the picture underneath.
So great quality for me even over 3G, full screen with a green bar at the bottom. Once that bar is gone, thats it I would say.
Update: ok, sometimes, objects or parts of the picture have a green or pinkish shadow. But it is definitely still watchable.
Yeah I tried the modified app as well. Green bar on bottom. Lots of pink and green in the picture.
Glad at least we have SOMETHING..hopefully someone will fix the issues soon.

That modified APK works for me but that green bar at the bottom is pretty annoying. Still better than nothing!

I have the P6810 but ran into the same problem in Skype. I have the Skype version downloaded from Market.
It varies, when I make a Skype video call it opens full screen, sometimes during the call the screen goes into a smaller screen overlayed on top of the full screen.
I can only guess its a Skype software issue.
Its bugging me so I may have to do a hard reset to see if it sorts it out as I can't get any answers from Skype

Skype voice and video quality
I hope to pick a WIFI tab version soon. Just wondering how is the skype quality especially the speaker voice quality especially the WIFI version. I have a Nexus and the Skype speaker voice quality is terrible.
Thx in advance

I use my tab for skype fairly often. It is definitely louder than my GS2, but the speakers are still mediocre. I can't compare to a Nexus but I wouldn't go in with high expectations. Audio quality over bluetooth is better, so you can always hook it up to a decent bluetooth speaker if it's a concern.

I'm interested in knowing this too. I tried this workaround and it doesn't seem to have worked for me. However, it was a bit hit and miss in terms of finding an "old" version of skype.
My video calls go as follows:
1- Fullscreen on connection for about 5-10 seconds
2- Image shrinks to half size leaving a "border" which flickers with whatever was on-screen when the picture chaged - annoying
3- Today after about 10 minutes the border went away. This is the first time it has gone. The image remains a small window, now with a black border.
So, if anyone has any bright ideas...
Google skype version 2.1.0.46 and install. Run it and try video. Should be full screen. Then goto market and update Skype.
