Dont forget to klick thanks

Just looked up DroidTV on the MArket. Sounds like an amazing app, but it lists Archos tablets as not appropriate. Thats a shame as it would have looked great on such a big screen ....

Yap Tv Show Stream is quite nice, you can see all series but the disadvantage is that not all movies are in there (maybe because that app is quite new)
You can find it in the market or here

[INFO] Netflix Alternatives

Here are some great alternatives to netflix for your touchpad.
Hulu , works great but you may need to patch your browser to make it work.
epctv.com , watch live online tv, I watch CNN live on here.
crackle.com , they have a big selection of movies. Its not netflix but hay its free.
zinc.tv , you really should check this out. Online media center for your touchpad. Watch all kinds of shows for free with a great interface.
Epixhd.com - Great alternative to Netflix.
some of these sites may not work with ad blocker installed.
if anyone can think of others, please share.
tv.blinkx.com
and
sidereel.com
they host LINKS to sites that host the episodes so as far as I know (I could easily be wrong) it's legal.
If you have a hbo subscription wwwhbogo.com.
EPIXHD.COM works great on the TP. Just watched The Captains on it in HD.
thanks for the links!
rlee
This is a GREAT list!
Any idea how someone would be able to watch/listen to NFL games on the touchpad, or even at all? We recently moved 2 states away and won't be able to follow our local team.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

probably using espn online since it's flash.
Also, al jazeera english has a live tv stream for news on youtube.com
"wwitv.com" EXACTLY like that. Its a crappy site but a great way to watch live broadcasts. I'm watching Fox's live broadcast from NY right now. Decent framerate, always live.
there is also orb streaming for the touchpad - (http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touchpad/294298-orb-media-streaming-awesome.html)
I've use orb in the past with dishnetwork, works great.
im looking forward to netflix finishing their switch from silverlight to html5 video. they already did for chrome os. when everything is sorted out on it, itll be open to linux and the others soon, and hopefully we can watch it in the touchpads browser soon.
Is there a patch on Preware for adding Hulu support to the browser?

the app video flood hd is really nice it has all the links you have listed and a lot more all wrapped up in a easy UI, and there is a Hulu fix in preware, for who want that.
If you're trying to add Hulu support, make sure you add these testing feeds to Preware.

Netflix is not currently available for WebOS devices. The forum at slickdeals suggests to reply to @Netflixhelps on Twitter and request an official release of the Netflix streaming app for WebOS.
Hulu is also not currently available for WebOS devices. There is a workaround I found posted, but that I personally have not tried. I will edit this post after I try it to let you know how it goes. Google "prewarewebosbuzz Hulu". First result.
You can stream video content from your PC to Touchpad by using Tversity. From slickdeals:
1. Install Tversity media server on your laptop/desktop.
2. After installation, add the files you want to view on the library tab. To add an avi file, go to Library, File system, Files and click add item on top.
3. Open cmd prompt on your computer, and type "ipconfig" There you should find your IP address. Note this down.
4.On your touchpad, open a web browser, then type in :41952/flashlib after your IP address. For example, h t t p : // 192.168.1.0 :41952/flashlib
There you should be able to browse your folders to find the video you are looking for. One problem is that you can't rewind/forward etc.
Again Slickdeals:
Amazon Video On Demand/Prime Videos works runs rather well. Audio holds up well but you might need to use the pop out function on the player over full screen to get it to fill the screen. It might lag when first starting it up but pausing and allowing it to buffer will allow it to self correct.

or you can install kalemsoft media player http://www.kalemsoft.com/site/demos/com.kalemsoft.ksmplayera_0.3.7_tp.ipk using the webos quick install program that you used to install preware on your touchpad. dont install it from preware, itll crash.
Hp Touchpad
Does anyone know how to get the YouTube icon back on the touchpad? I seemed to have lost it after I installed impostah on it? Also does anyone know or have in idea when gingerbread will be out and what site I can use for the latest updates / downloads on gingerbread? I sen the latest video that was out that they have the wifi working I dont know whay they dont release it.

Thanks for sharing buddy. Exellent app.

The TV.com site and app are owned by CBS. That app would let you watch the newest episode of some CBS, CW and Showtime shows. It also has episodes from older, "classic" TV shows. But the number of full episodes is pretty limited. It doesn't require Flash, so even someone with a crappy phone (like myself) can use it.
You can also watch a limited number of TV show episodes with the Crackle app (requires Flash).
ETA: Both of these apps are probably available only to people living in certain countries, like the U.S.

Crackle lets you watch TV and movies for free they have a pretty good selection. Not going to find recent shows but they have some good ones and a very nice selection of movies.

[Q] TV remote control app for sony Blu Ray

Hello, this is my first post here.
I am new/noob to Android/Mobile devices, i have a Transformer Prime-LOVE IT!!!
I was a lucky one and had very few problems with mine.
I did have a GPS and low WIFI problems, but i did the "Pinch" along the edges and it got my GPS working fine and it doubled my WIFI speeds.
I bought a Sony Blu Ray player (model #BDP-S580) and hooked it up (Samsung 50" Plasma) and all is running fine.
On the box it said use "Media Remote" app for a remote control.
So i went to the app market to download it, but it said it wasn't compatible with my Transformer Prime.
Question-Is there a app that i can use to use my Prime as a remote control?
Thanx
-dimwit-
i to would like to know this. to the op, what is the pinch thing you did? i did a search and couldnt find anything. thanks in advance

[Q] make my ps3 or tv recognize and play media from my phone over wifi

My PS3 and my smart tv pickup my windows computer over wifi enabling me to show pictures music and videos on it. Im assuming this is a windows feature that allows it to show up like that. Is there any type of app that can fake the tv I to thinking my phone is a wi dows media?
I may be using wrong technology terms here but hope what I am saying makes sense
Hey,
There are many apps for that in Google Play, the technology is called "DLNA", just look for that in Google Play.
I use imediashare for displaying videos and pictures on my Sony TV. But with this app you normally send your media to the TV, and not the other way round.
Just try it!

Netflix for Android TV on non Android TV devices (uncertified devices)?

Good afternoon everyone,
I'm pretty sure this can't be done, because is blacklisted server side, but I'd want your opinion before giving up.
Is there any way to run the Netflix apps version for Android TV on non Android TV devices?
I've downloaded "Netflix (Android TV) 4.0.4 build 1716" (com.netflix.ninja_4.0.4_build_1716-1716_minAPI22(armeabi-v7a,x86)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk) from APKMirror, it installs itself well, i can login, it starts but as soon as i play a movie i get this error: We're Having Trouble Playing This Title Right Now, tvq-pq-103 (1.10.5005.CODE_NOT_AVAILABLE).
I've searched in a lot of forums and it seems like nobody has been able to find a workaround.
Netflix understand that it's not running on a "certified device" and it blocks the playback.
Is there a way to bypass this?
My device is rooted so i could even change some system files, to make it look like another device.
I've got a Probox2 Air with regular Android, which is great for me, but it's a too difficult to use for my parents, with the smartphone version of Netflix and the air mouse.
In this forum the app modder simply says "Problem - Non-android TV boxes are blacklisted": http://www.wetekforums.com/v/index....ndly-apps-modified-to-work-on-regular-android
In the thread, a lot of people are in my same situation.
I've alredy tried to uninstall all the Netflix app, clear data and cache, logout and login, but it has been useless.
I really hope you can help me somehow.
If not, i think i'm going to sell the Probox2 Air and buy a Xiaomi Mi Box 3, but i'd really like to save the money and the time.
Bye!
I had the same issue and i just found a workaround which is a great solution to force HD and ultraHD on L1 and L3 widevine devices.
find bellow the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/netflix-hd-ultrahd-ultrahd-dolby-5-1-l1-t3535349

I'm sorry dude but:
- That APK doesn't seem to fix my problem. That's about forcing HD but i don't care about HD, i want the Android TV version of the app.
- It seems it has a malware in it:
I signed up just to warn you all this contains a virus.
Currently only the below file is effected.
h t t p : / / 1 9 9 . 1 7 5 . 5 3 . 2 1 / n e t f l i x l a t e s t . h d o n l y . a p k (Force Enable HD only)
Im sure he will change that seeing that im saying this now.
its a trojan

This all seems pretty suspicious to me.
Hi there,
I bought a android box trongle X8, with a great performance spec (2G RAM/ 16G ROM). However, i found a problem using Netflix as It apears the error message tvq-pb-103 (1.10.5005.CODE_NOT_AVAILABLE).
Then I did my first research on the net about the error message, I learned more about Netflix and its new way of authentication in order to stream HD and UHD using widevineCDM, classifying L1 for certified devices and L3 for non-certified devices. I found as well your post that mentioned the same error message but no solution or workaround.
Then during all the day, I tried a version of Netflix for normal android (not TV) that works but the quality was SD. and after that, I found the link I have just posted to you, and I tried it by deleting the spaces between letters and it works and the quality was HD.
I was trying to share what I find as there is limited articles and person who are talking about this issues and there is no solution.
About the link, there is no trojan, or I am not aware of it, I downloaded the tree links and used tested one by one. I kept the ultraHD and it works as mentioned by the link owner.
I wish I could help, and of course, I would like to have an Android version that will work for my device as well, so I will keep looking if there is any update.
Kind Regards,
Nass
In that case, sorry if I was suspicious. And thank you for your effort.
Could you confirm that the APK you liked is a mod for the regular version of Netflix, not the Android TV one?
The version is the regular version. the version that we use on the smartphone, which is not the same of course than the android tv version, I agree.
Ok! Thank you anyway.
Best regards.
Sadly, I've found no solutions form this problem.
I had to buy a device with Android TV, the Xiaomi Box 3, which is great for my parents.
If someone finds a workaround, please let me know, I would love to have the Android TV version of Netflix on my Probox2.
Bye!
I gave up, eventually.
I did a new research recently and I didn't find any news, it still seems there's no way to use the Android TV version of Netflix on a non Android TV device.
So I bought a Xiami Mi Box 3, which is great.
Cheap, with updated Android TV os, good performance, comfortable remote and certified by Netflix.
I've discovered there's also an Android TV version of Google Play Music that is way better than the regular one, that's pretty unusable on TV.
I too have a Xiaomi Mi box 3 on my main tv its awesome. I have a MXQ pro 4k in my bedroom I installed a custom rom I found on freaktab that runs Android TV you cant tell the difference between the two by looking at them the lower spec MXQ pro plays Kodi, Plex, YouTube and Pluto TV flawlessly however NO HD Netflix its stupid I pay for HD Netflix and have a device powerful enough to run it but They go out of their way by putting extra blocks to prevent users from using their app just doesn't make sense to me.
Hi cscott1!
Could you please leave us here the link to the custom ROM you're talking about? It would be nice to give it a try!

Yep, that's the main point of all of this matter.
My Probox2 was powerful enough to use Android TV Netflix app and HD streaming but Netflix doesn't want me to do it. That's silly. Anyway, they're the ones in command.

The fact that I couldn't find a working Netflix apk for Android TV for my uncertified device irritated me so much that I decided to make my own sort of lol you can tweak the settings of Titan BETA skin for Kodi to look and act very much like Android TV Netflix here is what you can make it look like.

Maybe if I had seen your work before, I would have kept my Probox2.
Thank you for posting in this thread.
Someone will have the apk mod of 3.2.2 netflix Android TV mod from the wetek forum, mega links were canceled.
I have Magisk + hide + lioemcrypto module + L1 and L3 would like to try if this apk works, very interested in the design and not in the resolution.
Hi januxool, no, I'm sorry, I didn't save it anywhere so I haven't got it.
Remote Crontrol issues Original Netflix don't scroll episodes menus
The Netflix works with the Original Remote Control? Can I change episodes 18, 20,21 with the original remote control or I need to buy a Mini-Keyboard to scroll on netflix episode menus?
Bump.
Still no way to get this working?
I'm sure with a rooted device there's a way to trick Netflix servers into thinking I'm using a certified box.
