Ice Age download - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know where the free Ice Age download is stored? Looking to copy it to a flash drive but can't find it.

You have to download it first, and id expect the DRM to be pretty darn tough.
But you will want to look here:
/sdcard/android/data/com.Google.android.videos/files/movies

Thanks, that's where it was but it's a wmv file which I've never got to play on the stock player. It starts and runs for a few seconds then errors out.
The file wouldn't play on my PC either, something didn't go well.

That's the DRM. I wouldn't expect to see it anywhere other than an android tablet

[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'm pretty sure I read flash will not be updating or working on smartphone applications any longer...

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

Flash seems smoother on Mozilla then Dolphin HD+Beta

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.

Where are downloaded movies stored?

I have rooted my N7 and I am looking to manage space by moving files to USB storage. I used Astro File manager to look for them and I can't find them under MOVIES or DOWNLOADs. Where are they?
If you mean movies from the play store they are in android/data/com.Google.android.videos
Other than that it would help if you said where the videos were from.

I've looked there and all I find is folders, files>Movies, and a folder named with random numbers and letters with nothing in it, and a also a blank folder named subtitles (Not it the movies folder). When I logged into my Google account, it gave me a free movie to download (Ice Age 1), and I can't find it there. I think I've looked everywhere.
EDIT: Just found it. The file was somehow hidden from my computer, but not one of my file-browsing apps. Thanks it works now.

Are you rooted? Rooting breaks Google Movies AFAIK.
You can either stream it or download it to your device (for offline viewing).

Not here. Unlocked/rooted from day one of purchase and Google Movies working fine. I've streamed the free Transformer movie several times.

Not anymore... Use it all the time on my Rooted Nexus 7.
I streamed the Transformer movie, didn't download it. Having it running right now just to make sure nothing has changed... works great.

Web Video Player 0o ?

The standard Nexus 7 is not supplied with Flash. Yeah, I know Google decided not to include it because it is yesterday's technology! However it can easily be sideloaded. Just google it. Make sure you install. Version 11.1.115.11. There are problems with some of the other versions floating around.
Have you tried another player like "dice player" or "mx player"?

Thanks,
1. I wasn't talking about flash at all but the Web Video Player itself
If I download these apps, will it replace thw video player on Chrome?

You'll have your choice between the player you install (mx is a good one too) and stock.They won't "replace" stock though, it'll still be an option.

No Sound From Flash Using Firefox Browser

Downloaded Flash Via an apk file and managed to get the video working from TV network websites so I can watch prior episodes I've missed. BUT there is no audio.
Can I use Firefox Beta or maybe I have to utilize a different browser?
Thanks much for your help.

How about some help for a bro?
Seriously, I'm returning the Nexus 7 if I cannot get Flash to work with it. There are many websites I go to that use it so personally it is a deal breaker. I admit this is a better hardware device than my KF but at least the latter does what I need it to.

Thanks alot, I owe you one!
I cannot play videos from every website I went to test it, but 90% worked for video AND sound.
I'm bookmarking the link you provided cause I have a feeling when another software update comes along it may not work and the developers will update that thread accordingly.
All other apk files for Flash I tried beforehand didn't work except the .17.

Flash is a bit hit and miss on the N7 but flash down loader on Play might be of use.
For TV in the UK you can't beat TVCatchup.
Thanks again for the thread on xda for Flash .17.
Still some websites where I cannot play videos BUT those are in the minority versus those that work.

Latest Flashplayer + Boat browser.
IMHO - Boat is way better than Chrome.
