N Developer Preview, has anybody tried it? - Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I updated my Nexus 6P to the preview yesterday, and so far it's running very well. I was wondering if anybody had done it on their nexus player? I mainly use it for kodi.
Thanks!

Yes, seems good, instal by OTA

Made a lot of my apps not work.
Show box
Popcorn
Stuff like that are useless
Emulators too

ScummVM + AGS

I've never owned an Android device before so forgive me if this is a stupid question. I'm buying a Nexus 7 and am wondering if ScummVM works well on the Nexus 7?
And also Adventure Game Studio, there's an android port, but I'm not sure if it will work on the Nexus 7.
I can't post the link to the Android build as I'm a new user, can google "AGS engine Android port"
Thanks guys
Doesn't seem to work on mine at the moment.

Scummvm runs great. At least with lucasarts games. The mouse tracking is odd at first but you can actually change it to a click-point interface in the midi options

edit: got it working. Scummvm works great on Nexus7!
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but for me ScummVM just opens and gives me a black screen. Tried putting compatible ROMs where I think they should be but no luck. I'm rooted using the Wugfresh toolkit but other than that I've done nothing to the stock ROM. Any suggestions?

Just tried deleting the app cache for ScummVM. Seemed to do the trick. Launches fine now and tested with Beneath a Steel Sky.

thought youtube used html5 now, chrome does not support flash AFAIK.
as daveleebond has said, youtube can run on html5 now if your browser does not support flash. a lot of video sites online are migrating to html5 since it is not a proprietary plugin like adobe flash, and html5 runs fairly smoothly on most modern GPUs.

Hulu Free on the Nexus 7

Hello,
Has anyone found a way to play the free Hulu videos either in the Android Browser or in a modded Hulu app? All the methods I've tried don't seem to work.
I don't have Hulu plus but I'd like to still watch the Hulu free videos that I normally can via my PC on my Nexus 7. Thanks!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I was curious about that too. What methods have you been trying?
Haven't tried Hulu, but Crackle works well, as does EpixHD (if you have it on your TV).
Splashtop to your desktop PC should work in most cases.

I've tried some method that edits libflashplayer.so, a cracked flash APK, and a couple init.d scripts but none work. Maybe its a JB issue?
And I would use Splashtop but I don't want to need to have my home PC on as well. If I could keep it on-device for the most part, it would be great

Nexus Media Importer App

Just wondering if anyone uses the Nexus media importer app? Apparently its the only way to expand storage via USB otg without root? My laptop recently died and all the other computers in my household are all macs -__- and I wouldn't even try rooting my n7 on a Mac lol. So until I get around to rooting it just wanted someone's opinion on the app and if its worth it
Sent from my Black "Destroy Mode" N7
I haven't used it, but from what I've heard it's like StickMount, but doesn't have an actual file explorer like StickMount, so it's a pain to use.

I haven't used the Nexus Media Importer app, but I have a Mac and I rooted my N7 through Boot camp with Windows 7. You may or may not have a copy of Windows laying around, but everything worked fine for me. Sorry that I don't have any experience with the Nexus Media Importer app.

Yeah I'm not too good at using Macs lol. My laptop had windows 7 ultimate but now it's dead :'( well I decided to purchase it anyway, once I get the chance I'll try it out and review it

Well I gave the app a minor test run and it works pretty well! Now I need to order a bigger flash drive, and test some of the file formats to see what is compatible

That's great! I'm glad you were able to find a solution.

The app works great for me. The developer is actually a poster here, he has a thread over in the themes and apps section. He responds really great to people posting with questions or problems.
Definitely worth the $1.99. I've had no problem streaming movies, pictures, and PDF docs.

Pull the APK from another device. I've tried it and it gets stuck on "buffering" every time. Same problem on my Nexus 4. They need to update their API's.

same experience here. pulled from my gs4 using tbp, stuck on buffering for all video.
Does hbo go stream at 1080p? I know it doesn't with my HTC one

I really hope they get this fixed and updated fast, I feel it has been too long already. Showtime is available and works on the Nexus 7 (2013)!
