Flash videos

Anyone having trouble watching youtube videos or flash videos in browser? Mines keeps crashing when I try to watch a video in browser and in youtube app

You didn't happen to download the flash player from the market did you? If so there is another thread in this forum that has a link to the proper APK that is optimized for the tegra 2.

LOL.
And to be OT, flash videos are amazing and crystal clear at this resolution.

I agree, it even runs HD streaming perfectly on Amazon.com prime service.
Netflix streaming does not work, the webpage reports that 'its not compatible with your browser' seems stupid, but oh well.. now i have an amazon prime account!
Wish this thing would play mkv's. thats a big issue.

Netflix uses Silverlight bro. You wont be able to view any SL content until it's put on on the market like Flash player is. But it will never be put up so no need to worry about it

you can view Amazon Prime on your Atrix? I tried but the Watch now Link did not do anything.

In another thread someone mentioned that they were able to play the videos by browsing to the website.
I tried that in the stock browser and the video started playing. It looked nice and smooth and HD. After about 2-3 mins, the framerate dropped to like 3 frames per second and the video become unwatchable. I couldnt figure out a way to fix it, so I gave up.

This is a deal breaker for me considering how awesome HBO Go is. Any rooted devices/custom roms got it running?

Works perfectly in the Dolphin browser.

this is debatable. Not everyone has been having the same success as you. I have tried a couple different browsers and the video starts out smooth, then after a few minutes the frames drop and it's unwatchable.
Haven't been able to figure out why, since I have plenty of RAM available.

Contact HBO. They have to make it work.
It's only a matter of time until this app has GTab 10.1 support. Email the developer. I did. And I'm having success watching it through Dolphin HD

[Q] flash player not compatible

Is there a version of flash player I can side load ? I'm bummed to find flash player isn't compatible in play store. Loving my new nexus though!

Perhaps you didn't get the memo but flash isn't compatible with jelly bean. Or at least I think its not.

I restored a previous backup. Ditto with the fullscreen crashing, both in Dolphin HD and Opera Mobile browsers.
Kind of bummed too, since one of the main purposes of finding a reason to buy the N7 in the first place was to be able to watch anime on it. Usually 5 out of 6 alternate video links are flash, and the html5 won't full screen..
Is there an addon or app that can be installed that would take over the inline streamed feed?

is there anyway to watch noobroom.com videos on nexus 7 ?

This is the best solution I have found

Great site, thanks
I loaded up 'the Raven' on Mozilla and looks like it let me go to the full screen without crashing, if the other videos are using the same embedded then it should work no problem but if not then use my 'trick' for those

thanks everyone, I'll try sideloading firefox later today with the plugin.

XBMC and XBMC HDMI for Atrix.

XBMC Atrix *HDMI* (Any Blur based ROM)​
The user "djeman" brought us, an HDMI version of XBMC for the Atrix.​
Here is the link: CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD​
Test and let me know how it works. ​
Special thanks to djeman​
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​
XBMC
Description:​
Is the one of the most complete multimedia center, where you can play your favorite audios, videos, movies, also it supports many plugins like (TV, Web, Apps, etc.).​
Considering this is an Atrix, this could be used as the new WebTop for CM7/CM9/CM10 but more for multimedia than office and other things, but you can always go the plugins way.​
I'm bringing the XBMC from the dev kemonine96, since it works almost fully and I have been testing it to the bottom, so any question you can ask me. TEST AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Here is the original post so you can download it and test it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813089
Thanks for all.
** Known Bugs:​
*CPU1 when not playing anything, it freezes at 67%.
*Cannot load 720p+ Videos, it lags a lot due to HW lack.
*Won't change resolution.​
Special thanks to kemonine96.​

Does this use native resolutions under hdmi mirroring?

Just want to say the tegra version in the link is working on my th3bill miui rom.
I can connect to my network and stream etc, just like xbmc on anything else. Navigation is a bit fiddly, being touch only.
Can't wait to replace my atv2 with an Android box
Awesome, cheers!

You can always modify resolutions in the Settings of XBMC, that being said, yes.

Actually, you can't. I tried with my lapdock, and it wouldn't let me change it. It looks ok on my lapdock, but in a tv it would look big.
I still don't know how to play music/video using it, it seems like it doesn't come with a music/video player built in.
Im going to go around their forum later to figure out those things.
Looks pretty nice so far.

You will also want to check their wiki. It outlines usage very well. Keep in mind the Atrix is an unofficially supported device. If you have android specific issues or playback problems please post back to XDA. The official channels will not be able to help with Atrix specific issues.

What do you mean sir Luis? Everything works fine, is true that I haven't tried the resolution change since my dock is on the mail but it should scale up fine. If somebody else report back or you can surely confirm it doesn't then I will post it as a bug in the OP.

Just added it to bug list

So this runs on straight Android? Or do we run it from Ubuntu on our phones? And add-ons work just on the phone, e.g., like radio streams (sky.fm, digitally imported), anime freak, scrubbers, etc? If so, very interesting!

If you are running ubuntu on your phone you will want the version from the ubuntu ppa or similar.
Add-ons should generally work. A few may not, but I haven't heard of / know any being outright broken offhand. This should include the last.fm / sky.fm / scrobblers / you tube and the like. If you run into any broken add-ons let me know and I will update the main thread with the known-broken add-ons.

Cool, nice job doing so, will update the OT, when I have time.

If aimed at me (the guy behind the main nightlies thread): I won't be including the external player patch in my builds just yet. Right now there are no official nightlies being built and I plan to keep mine as close to vanilla xbmc as possible until they post official nightlies.
When official nightlies are posted I'll be taking a closer look at different patch sets and re-evaluating including them in my builds.

Flash Player on Galaxy Note 8.0

For general information the stock web browser will still support Flash. You can sideload Flash to the device and play videos and view other sites requiring Flash. I was searching the internet and wanted to see a clip but it required Flash. I downloaded the latest Flash Player and installed. Worked fine with the stock browser.

Just curious about where do you download the flash player.

Just google Adobe Flash Player 11.1_11.1.115.34-1.apk you should find somewhere to download it

Download from adobe:
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/...roid/11.1.115.54/install_flash_player_ics.apk
Dolphin Browser works best with flash player, but you need to root the phone and hack the settings.
Use Root Explorer or similar app to edit mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml from data/data/mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser
change the line string name="plugin_state" from OFF to ON or ON_DEMAND and save

It works 100% with mine.

I understood that Dolphin removed flash support, so it will not work with the current revision of either Dolphin or Dolphin beta. However Boat browser still supports it. I understand there is a work around hack, but its not worth my time when another browser works just as well.

For those who want to stream video via Amazon Prime, experiences have been generally negative. I had no luck with stock or xscope and others have had little luck with other browsers. Other than that, Flash experience has been OK for me.

Flash working fine here on stock browser, but even better, on this tab stock browser also supports smart text reflow, something sadly missing on stock browsers since gingerbread.

"mingkee" Thanks for sharing link for downloading adobe player.

You can also use dolphin browser with user agent set to ipad. Flash type files seem to work fine.

The stock browser already support flash player. Beside, you may try Boat Browser, but have to purchase the pro license keys. Another choice is Lightning Browser.
However, I am searching for the compatible version of the adobe flash player, the latest and last version is 11.1.115.69, but it does not seems to be stable as I thought the latest should be bugs fixed and stability. I have tried to roll back to 11.1.115.54 and is more stabilise.

Flash archives straight from the source.
