I tried to search but found no recent threads on this.
Has anyone else found that Netflix video and audio go out of sync pretty regularly??? I find that the video stutters for a second, and the audio is then out of sync. The video speeds up and catches up with the audio a short time later, then shortly later the problem happens again.
I have netflix on my tablet o.o and it works great. No out of sync audio with video or any problems

Odd.... Are you using a ROM or anything??? I am totally stock (not even rooted yet).
I've read about it on another site but not experienced it myself. Are you on the most up to date version of Netflix?

What is your download speed? Your internet speeds could be too slow.

I'm pretty sure its gotta be your internet speeds bro.
I meant to add in my original post that it definitely wasn't my bandwidth.
Any other ideas on a stock 10.1???
The last version of Netflix was horrible like that for me, but the current is perfect. You probably already did this, but uninstall and re-install? Hope it works for you.
The current version of Netflix works great for me. I'm on Task's latest rom.

I am using Overcome's ROM at the moment.
I posted earlier that I had not had the same problem but last night I was watching Top Gear on Netflix and experienced some pretty bad stuttering, but when I played the same show today it was fine.
Sometimes when I start Netflix its out of sync and/or stuttery. Usually I just reboot the tab and then it works fine.
I have the same issue.. My audio/video will get out of sync. I have a T-Mobile galaxy tab 10.1 with stock everything without a root.
I was having this same issue wile watching some videos with my kids today. I usualy fixed its self but it was very annoying. I was on stock 3.2 at the time, latest version of netflix and my intenet is prety darn fast.
I'm running Task's 7.0 rom at the moment. I'll have to test and see if it makes a difference.
Loving this tablet so far, just don't know what else I should be doing with it. I feel like it's my myTouch 4G all over again, no idea what to. First thing I did was install Minecraft, but I want to know, what do you do with your Galaxy Tab? (Watching porn is not an acceptable answer)
I mostly use it for Netflix, YouTube, browsing, and gaming.

i got mine like, 2/3 hours ago ) i'm trying to test all the bits on this before flashing another rom on it (specially, because I haven't flashed a tablet ever) and i'm still trying to get KIES to work with this (though, i would only sync music, and i use doubletwist for that :d)
already rooted, gonna flash a ROM but I dont know what ROM to flash, all I really want is Cyanogenmod 9.
I only use it for Twitter | Facebook | Angrybirds nuffsaid'
If you use it for anything else , then idk .
oh and root it & add CWM & add a custom-rom .
Root it and add the ad-hoc wifi hack so you can tether to your droid.
As to what to do with it - ebooks. Isn't that what tablets were invented for? LOL
I got mine two-three days ago and first thing I did was root it, installed Overcome's ROM and then just messed with it a bit.
I usually tether my Galaxy S 4G, take my Tab everywhere I go & usually just browse the internet... Facebook, look on Engadget, games, and maybe some pr0n.
I'm starting to use it more than I use my phone, I lurve it. It's my life now!
Surfing and ebookreading. Watching tv shows and movies. Listening to music. Almost the same as on the sgs 1.
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9000
Apart from being connected to my inboxes and google reader, I found it great for "mobile" web-surfing with a bigger screen, e-books and pdf reading with repligo, note taking with writepad stylus and freenote.
I use it for my work.....marketing - photo and pdf presentations, keep marketing materials on them for my use, surf the net, read books via the Kindle reader app.
Mine has pretty much replaced my laptop, which is now consigned to mostly being a media server. The only thing I use mine for that hasn't been mentioned is Skype video calling and as a radio, I listen to shows on BBC iPlayer and TuneIn Radio.
I have mine running GalaxyTask 10.0 and I couldn't be happier. Absolutely amazing for a Honeycomb ROM.
Better than my HP Touchpad and all Gingerbread ROMs with the (equality) of Skyraider for the Thunderbolt phone.
Bedside book reader with Nook app (sideloading .epub), web browser, mail client, ski report viewer, Google Talk station, etc.

Running Galaxy Task as well and its a hell of a lot better than the stock ROM, if games could run smoothly then I would be perfectly happy with this tablet.
I do almost anything that I use my desktop/laptop for on my tab. GoToMyPC app connects me to my desktop at work for quick access to files or dropbox access to all my machines. I was like you when I first got mine...soon the question will be what do I NOT use the tab for!
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
I do almost everything except play MW3 and SWTOR on my tab. To the point I probably will go back to a blackberry because I don't use my phone for much, other than to settle arguments here and there with google.
I pretty much use mine for watching movies and web browsing. Netflix and VPlayer are my two movie apps
Does anyone know of one of the ROMs running CM9 that is fully working? I want one that runs Netflix and YouTube.
Thanks
I'm pretty sure that is still the one big holdout across the board for us. I've run the nightlies and am now comfortably on eyeballer's opengl build. Still no flash support. I haven't heard of anyone with it up yet.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
Thanks. I really want CM9 but use it a lot for Netflix and YouTube so I'll have to wait until its ready. I have it on my phone and love it. Thanks for the update
I have eyeballers with the OpenGL too... Youtube (non-HD) works... if you have trouble loading a video, turn off the HD and it's fine. As for netflix, it tries to load but is a no go :-( Aside from that, it's great and amazing how much progress they've been making on it!

Yeah, I realized that today, about turning off the hd. I actually switched back to samiam303's 20120204 nightly with opengl off, but the new kernel and youtube worked there too. Netflix puts up a desperate fight though, doesn't it?
The devs will get us there!

Hi,
I just got my Ouya (supposedly the retail version). I installed XBMC using these instructions from XMBChub.
http://www.xbmchub.com/blog/2013/06/02/how-to-install-xbmc-to-the-ouya-gaming-console/
But the video is still sometimes skippy...like maybe there's no hardware acceleration. I kept hearing a few weeks ago about the "stagefright" version of XBMC, but that's not what XBMChub said to do...
Should I uninstall XBMC and look for some other instructions?
Edit: after playing a movie for an hour with lots of weird video skipping, the Ouya is really hot! I think it wasn't on hardware acc.

Hello,
I followed this install video/guide about 2 weeks ago and don't have any skipping etc... I play 1080p movies over my 1Gb network with absolutely no issues. Works very well.

I've had some skipping but only while streaming and the menu being open at the same time. Looking at the link you provided, the only thing I can think of is maybe the addon they had you install is causing it, but I have no way of confirming without doing it myself.
When I installed it, I just sideloaded it (part 1 steps 1-25) and didn't do anything special with plugins, not sure if that matters though.

I actually didn't do the plugin part at first. Once I installed it, I played a movie right away. Saw the skipping, so I thought maybe the plugin would fix it, so that's when I did part 2 (plugin installation). But that didn't fix it.
I can't figure out how to uninstall XBMC.

Just curious, could it be hardware related? Under advance settings/system/about console, my "build number" is JZ054L-Ouya.
You need to look up the xbmc libstage alpha 4, it has hardware acceleration enabled, without it the ouya can't use it's hardware to render 720p/1080p video, it lags otherwise.

It's weird that XBMChub would have the post the wrong isntallation link if we're suppose to use some other XBMC. Is the "stagefright" version of XBMC not the latest working one anymore then?

Its still in beta, they haven't officially released the H/W Acceleration version yet
After the last ouya update alpha 4 is working quite nice, playback is smooth before the update I was getting stuttering. Now if they could just fix the addons.

is this why i can't install milkdrop? I try selecting install add-on from zip and it says invalid file structure
this is the whole reason i wanted xbmc...was for those mind blowing endless list of visuals. has anyone been able to get it to work? the default player doesn't come with these installed does it?
Hope they implement better Ouya controller support too
Ok, I installed the stagefright alpha 4 version. I used this link:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=152005
Still get lots of stuttering on 1080P H.264 encoded movies. I also can't pulled the progress bar to go to spots in the movie. 720P movies seem to work.
Can you fast forward on the progress bar when playing movies?
Thank you.Yea this version works well
BTW whats the button to bring up the download vid option?

Which version worked for you? Are you doing anything not in the instructions?
I'm still getting stutters with 1080P. I'm doing this over wireless, but the router is in the same room as me. I'm getting 1.5MB/s according to the real time bandwidth monitor on my Tomato router. I'll try again with a long Ethernet cable, but the stuttering doesn't seem like it's a bandwidth issue. Seems like video decoding.
It's H264 at 1080P in MKV. I'm not transcoding or anything.
Would like more help with XBMC, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I think I'm following directions right. Just to recap, the two methods I used:
http://www.xbmchub.com/blog/2013/06/02/how-to-install-xbmc-to-the-ouya-gaming-console/
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=152005
Neither worked great for me. And the second one I try, even when 720P video plays smoothly, I can't set the progress bar to specific spots in the movie.
So after coming across conflicting information about XBMC on Ouya, I finally decided to just download the latest build (Frodo) straight from xbmc.org/download.
I've had no issues at all. I thought I would have to hook up through ethernet cable, since xbmc is choppy on Wifi on my GS4, as well as my 7 inch tab (which also has a tegra 3). But on wifi the Ouya runs XBMC perfectly.

Has anybody tried internet streaming? I've been trying with the 1channel add-on with poor results. It will start the streams just fine but the picture will be very unsmooth (doesn't actually freeze or pause, just kind of skips frames and has weird lines/artifacts every few seconds and whatnot). I'm running gotham SF alpha4 and my Ouya is connected via Ethernet with more than adequate downstream bandwidth. It seems like everyone else is getting good performance with that build but I haven't actually seen anybody confirm it works well while internet streaming.
I used the xbmc hub instructions.
All works fine, I can stream from my raspbmc to the ouya seamlessly.
It's faster and snappier than my 1st gen rpi (256mb) running xbmc

Yesterday by accident I found a thread on kodi forums with new release from some guy and I checked it first on my phone to see if prime is working and it indeed does work.
But there are some issues some videos might not play so hopefully the guy who did it updates it or fixes it but I just spent last 30 min on my fire tv testing what works and what does not
Here is what you do in order to get it to work on your Fire TV:
1) Download this zip (repo) and put it somewhere on your fire TV:
Link: https://code.google.com/p/addonscri...=repository.addonscriptorde-beta.zip&can=2&q=
2) Go to add-ons on your kodi/xbmc and install the repo
3) go to settings addons - get addons and download the Amazon Prime Instant Video from "Video-Addons" inside AddonSCriptorde Beta Repo
4) launch the prime addon select it as USA, set your settings like quality etc... then it should ask you to LOG-IN after you select US.
5) You should be able to browse tv shows/movies etc..
6) upon selecting play for certain movie/tv-show episode it should ask you to switch to Flash Player (no idea how it works on Fire TV) or any other android device without flash.
On my phone I don't have flash but on my fire tv I do and they both work.
Note: without prime instant access you can view things like Pilot episodes to test it out.
Now we need someone who can try and see why some videos will play and why some won't
Someone who is smart dig into these logs when some videos don't play and tell us what to do about it
What is the advantage here? Prime is standard app on the FireTV. Just curious.
Curious as to why someone would want to use an xbmc add-on for Amazon Instant Video when AIV is one of the core features of the Fire TV? I use built-in AIV all the time and it works great. Why use some hack add-on that will never be nearly as reliable as the official app? Do you not like the built-in AIV? I'm genuinely curious. Could be missing out on something here...

In my case I am not a biggest fan of the KFTV Launcher I actually like the way it is made on Kodi with that plugin.
It's just me maybe there are some other people who prefer it that way
It's good to have options. Enjoy!

You can add Videos from the addon to your library just like they are local stored. So you can extend your local movies with amazon instant links.
You don't have to switch between your library and amazon Instant.
Adding ALL amazon Videos to library is not implented yet, i'm working on it

It is set to [email protected] I thought about the HD because everything it plays shows SD after played.
And looking at my Watchlist the HDs are not playing whereas the SDs are. Was just my first impression.
Are you aware of another addon for Amazon Prime Video?

There are other but require to use real version of chrome not mobile.
It somehow uses chrome then passes video to kodi/xbmc addon.
I would give this dev some time he will for sure fix it. This is already one of the best I have seen.
This plugin broke the genesis plugin for me. .. would be great to have this working. specially when the AFTV skin for Kodi is released.

I don't see anyway this could break another plugin which is weird. And yea I tried googling for the aftv skin for kodi but all they do is show bunch of youtube videos.. I would gladly even pay few bucks for this.
With root this could be huge adding android apps etc.. making kodi act like a launcher.
This would be great for those with rooted devices who may one day be able to upgrade to CM12 / Android TV ROM. I am fairly certain that this upgrade will eliminate access to the current Fire TV Launcher and Amazon content. It would be nice to be able to access Amazon Prime if and when CM12 is possible from other sources.
Anyway to get this to pass 5.1 sound information to my receiver?
Or can that data not be captured from the Flash version of Prime.
This is very worth while if it works. Lots of people like to boot right into Kodi. Plus I hate just about everything about KFTV launcher. I think it's too tedious to navigate. The voice search was a great idea and the tech is perfect at picking up your voice but it often yields a bunch of results that you need to pay extra for. I think kodi has the best interface.
Hi I am from India and I have a Indian prime video account. Will this add-on work for that??
