Hello there.
I have my loved samsung g tab 10,1. And it is rooted to update to ICS, now its all good and working fine. But have this problem with an app that is protected, with this DRM protection, i think.
Its a tv streaming app from my tv provider, and it is free! But for a reason the have protected it so it wont play. Now i dont know if the protection is layed in the app. Or from the streaming coding..!
Is it possible to remove this DRM or do i have to live with no rtablet tv?
Name of the app are "Stofa webtv"

Anyone tried this with good results?
My results:
I use the free "device check disabled" version of the Netflix app, and it operates great on my stock unrooted DroidX. Watched entire movies over 3G with no problems. Works over WiFi too.
Got myself a HDMI cable for the phone to TV (less than $4 incl. shipping, from Amazon)
I've tried using the free "Xternal Display for Droid X" app to send output to an external HDMI monitor.
Works for a couple of minutes, then quits.
I suspect the "Xternal Display" app is getting swapped out by the Android OS, and that kills the TV output.

There's an app in the market called realhdmi that works I haven't tested it on netflix yet but it works great with youtube videos

I purchased the hdmi app from the market. Afterwards Netflix started right up on my tv. No luck before that. It is somewhat of a pain to use. What you see on your tv is not what you see on your phone. Takes some time to get use to.
This makes the DroidX the smallest Netflix streaming device for a TV?

I've been using the same app and ut works it just randomly stops working alot and I have to reopen the xternal app. But you could try using the paid app realhdmi, I haven't had any issues with that

sorry, i think iphone 4 and ipod touch 4g are smaller, and officially support tv-out with component, vga, and hdmi (with proper cables/dongles). i wish my droid x officially supported hdmi out for anything useful.

I'm hearing real hdmi doesn't work under Gingerbread yet. Can someone confirm?
Also, under Froyo, has anyone watched an *entire* Netflix movie using real hdmi without any problems?

Realhdmi works on gingerbread as of a few weeks ago.

Real HDMI will do the job, but because netflix is a mobile app, the picture quality is passable when it is highest, but not watchable if your connection slows and the video quality drops.

Is there any way we could stream content to a TV using dlna or something like it?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
There are dlnA apps in the market that will work. Just search for dlna in the play store.

Just to clarify, cause I'd really like to be able to use the NQ to stream media from my NAS; here's the scenario
If I was playing an MKV file using Dice Player (which is streaming it from my NAS via SMB) on my Galaxy Nexus, I can have the Galaxy Nexus communicate with the NQ to have it displayed on my TV?
Any help with this is greatly aprpeciated
Folks,
If, like me the only downside of the Razr i is the lack of flash (without rooting etc) and not having access to Freeview channel apps like TV Catch up then check out mPlayer. It does streaming TV and works very smoothly on the Razr i.

Hi, I have the Amazon Prime Streaming Video service, and I was wondering if there is a app, or a way to watch it on my S4,and my Nexus 7 2013? Thanks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
The only way I have figured out is to load flash player for android from the adobe archives and then use a browser such as Dolphin to access the prime streaming movie page.

Red is right.
Amazon has not released their app for the Android market.
Many have tried to extract it from the Kindle Fire & HD to use on
other tablets or phones, but it has not worked. Kind of bad since
Amazon has released the Amazon Instant Video App for IOS.
So, the only way to watch is to set your (flash capable) browser to desktop, load flash
and then log on to Amazon and watch the video through the browser
it works, but not as well as the Amazon Instant Video app. . .
Unfortunately flash is dead in Android 4.4, so this is a short-term solution for everybody, unless you stick with your current device and never upgrade it.
I understand why they might have wanted to keep instant video a kindle exclusive. But once they released it on iOS, it should be on android too.

Does anyone have the apk download for Amazon prime. Thanks In advance!!!

I'm assuming you meant Amazon Prime Video? As of now there is no Android app for it aside from GTV app (which only works on select TVs). There's one for Kindle tablets and Fire Phone, but no other Android devices have access to it. In fact, you can rip APK off the Kindle Fire or Fire Phone and sideload it on any Android phone, but they won't work and force close on any device other than Kindle. As of now, your only option to watch Amazon Prime Video on Android is to use browser that supports Flash, such as Dolphin Browser.
Amazon recently did mention that they may come up with an app for other Android devices soon, but that hasn't happened yet, and I doubt it will any time soon, so I'd say browser is your best bet.
Okay, apparently it seems the app recently got released. Here's the link to it.

Amazon Instant Video should already be available on Roku. What model of Roku do you have? Depending on the model, your other option is to use screen mirroring, so long as you have supporting media streaming device.

It could be because its international variant. They're very picky about that kind of things. You could try an app called Market Helper. It's an app that helps your device disguise as some other device so you can download "incompatible" apps from Play Store. It requires root access, but if you're interested, try the link below.

If that doesn't work, well, I guess you could simply download the APK, and side load it. I did that on my Nexus 7, and it does work perfectly(it shows as incompatible on Play Store). Once you have the Amazon app, you can download Instant Video app from Amazon appstore right from Amazon app. They don't seem to check for compatibility on Instant Video app, so you should have no problem with that. It's kinda interesting as even though they say the tablets are "not supported" the app seems to adapt to tablet screen, changing UI element to fit the bigger screen. Anyways, below is the link to the APK I ripped off my phone. Enjoy

Thanks! Trying the Market Helper (and ROM Toolbox) first...
Also if you have botbrew, can't you technically install Flash w/ Firefox and watch? Never tried it since it seems overkill, but would it work in theory?
