Does it have gamepad support? And it would be great if you could hook up a mouse through the keyboard dock and play SC2 on a tablet.

So to use spashtop one needs to be on the same wifi network as their desktop?
Or were you talking about splastop 2, or are they the same thing?

Spashtop2 is out on my pcs - but requires a login now with their services - blergh
i got it when it was on sale a cpl of weeks ago - its nice since you can not only play games but also use it as RDP which is nice.
You only need to be in the same network if you don't sign in - otherwise you can connect using your google account

Surely looks awesome!
How is the client on OSX, anyone tried it out?

its not available on google play yet right?

make sure you get the thd version if you're using a tegra device. It's faster good for games. Although you must be on a fast network for this to work smoothly.
I've been playing diablo 3 and it works but it's not the best for fps games since they require good reaction times. If you have a fast network then i'm sure you could play most games.

I currently have the non-THD version of the app so is there any advantage of getting the THD version if I do not plan on playing games (since I have ATI card that is not supported in full screen) ?

I got an iMac but using bootcamp so i dnt think is the same.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Yes an ati card won't support the full screen but you can always play windowed no borders. but if you don't plan on playing any games then you will be fine with just the reular version.

I wonder what this would be like via the Internet. I guess you would have your own cloud gaming service. Might be worth trialing if you have a descent upload connection to see if cloud gaming is worthwhile

sideloaded splashtop HD from Market and works just fine. Only problem is N7's top status bar and button menu bar acting as overlay so I can't click on the very top and very bottom portion of the desktop.

When is Splashtop 2 coming and will that have a HD version.

If/when it becomes compatible with the nexus 7 yes. I've read reports of it not even working when side loaded.

Splashtop HD is now showing up as installable from the Play Store. Thank god.

I just get a blank screen, I can control the mouse and then it times out.

[Q] Using Amazon Prime

It seems they stream their videos with Flash but I guess Adobe / Google don't get along. One person from Amazon said it worked great while another person said it did not work.
But what about the books - will they work on (unrooted) the Nexus 7?

The amazon kindle app for android works just fine. Is this your question? You can also install the amazon app market on the N7 from Amazon's website.

Quick question, is Amazon Kindle app better than Google Books?

You can side load Adobe on an unrooted N7. You just have to use a browser such as Boat or Firefox.

[Request] latest YouTube apk before revamp

Basically I want the YouTube apk just before the 10 inch tab revamp. I like the old 10 inch but on the n7 the new one doesn't fit on screen properly.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

New layout is horrible especially on a 10 inch screen. Also it no longer has a full screen button.
Just open up the app in settings and click on uninstall updates to get the old one back.

Another app to add to the "Do not Update" list along with BBC News and Dolphin Browser where the Updated versions are not as good as the originals.

Do people who designs these things actually think about anything they do? Horrendous update.

[Q] Netflix and youtube app

Hi,
So xbmc on the ouya is pretty much the best experience i´ve gotten so far on a small setup! love it.
But when i install the netflix apk, its really hard / impossible to navigate with the D-pad, plus the quality of the stream seems to be aimed at mobile phones. Anyone gotten a better APK where you can browse with the d-pad and get a good quality stream?
And youtube, i managed to install the youtube APK, and the streams are looking great, but i cant login, plus it seems i just find the stock mobile version, ive heard that the google tv is alot better, but does it enable log in as well?
Sorry for the wall of text, but these are the 2 missing features i really want.

I have installed the tv versions of both apps and they are easier to navigate. No problem logging in but I do have the google store mod.
Netflix quality can be poor at times.

This was the same version I had already. It still doesn't work well with controller without touch pad and quality still sucks for a tv unfortunately
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

Did you ever figure this out? My wife hates me for putting for taking out our ****ty streamer and replacing it with the Ouya. On Netflix, can't scroll through right or left when picking when you want to watch and can't scroll down to select episodes of TV shows when there is more than 5-6.

The easiest solution I have found it just have a bluetooth mouse. You can just drag the screen up and down, etc as if you were touching the screen. It works pretty well.

Or you can use the touchpad of the controller to scroll. Double tab and then drag up. It's a bit sluggish but it works.
The only problem I have is that the playback stops if the controller turns itself off.

using netflix apk 1.8.1
i got the 1.8.1 working with no playback issues, and with some use of ouya control, does not pause when the control turns off.
My only gripe is the subtitles are very small... can any dev can do a modified netflix 1.8.1 apk with bigger fonts?
