I just watched ghostbuster on my NC running (from sdcard) CM7.03 with Dal's 5/13 kernel. I watched for 10 minutes (gotta go) and I have not a single skip frame, and sound is fine (using headphone). It does drain the battery pretty quickly
Our little NC is really amazing... Hats off to the develops for their amazing work!
Doesn't show up in my Market. CM7 n100. Can't install it from the web either. Weird. It's the first app I've had a problem with over the market on my NC.
I couldn't find it in the market either, so I grabbed it on my EVO.
Here's the apk.
It just keeps getting better everyday with this device. Just when u think that's it!

I installed it and when I run it it says flash is missing (so I assume it uses flash). I installed flash but I still get the message to install flash when I try to watch a movie. DO I have to reboot after installing flash?
Edit: Did a reboot and it worked just fine, so I guess the reboot was needed.
Does this look like a slideshow for anyone else? I'm running cm7 n106 with Dal's latest OC and Flash 10.3, and the movies are unwatchable slideshows... :-(
Yes sir, as advertised. Thank you app GOD's.
Bay Boys Bay Boys, whatchu gonna do. Whatchu gonna do when they come for you.

Not sure what you mean by slideshow? It works fine for me. It got slightly jerky sometimes, but usually smoothed out again fairly quickly.

For me, the audio is fine, but the video looks like a continuous PowerPoint slideshow... even at a fixed 1200 MHz.
Very pixelated
Not getting a sharp image. Running at 1200 and still looking bad any ideas on how to fix this would help.
**It was only the commercial (HTC ad) before the movie that came out pixelated. Movie was fine although was getting minor skips here and there. **
doesn't wanna work for me when i try to play a movie it just stays on the loading screen
Plays pretty well for me on the CM 7.0.3 OC to 1300.
I do get some frame skipping here and there, but overall it's a pretty good experience.
Not as good as Netflix, but pretty watchable...
I don't get the frame skip on my Incredible.
Then again, this apk is not set up for tablets.
Lego
I get the blurry HTC add as well but when the movie loads...it looks fine.
Also...on the right side of the screen I get a vertical white line like it doesn't fit to the entire screen. Anyone else get that?
yeah, crackle, is running fine on my NC. I also have this vertical white line, is this normal? maybe I'll try to change my LCD density
Nightly 112, OC 6/18 kernel @ 1325, this just sits at the circle loading screen, rebooted as well, same thing.
This is Awesome! Thanks OP
I was having the endless loading circle and couldn't play a video, but after applying Aces hulu fix ,crackle is money now. A little pixlelated at first but smooth sailing from there, and I did see the white lines prior to the flash/hulu fix even without actually seeing video but its gone now.

I've got the white line too. I couldn't find crackle on the market so I installed it from the posted apk.
Posted apk didn't work for me, instead I downloaded it to my n1, made a titanium backup, transferred it to the nook and restored via titanium.
App works fine now.

I noticed how youtube/xl worked pretty well over on the Nook CM7, so I made my 1st app, hot out the oven! =) Skipping ahead through videos doesn't work so well but all other native controls work fine.. Feedback? Ideas? Props?
I attached the .apk on Cyanogenmod Forums..
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/16323-cm7-discussion-of-nightlies/page__st__440#entry157411
Good start, but once I sign in it does everything but actually play. Seemed to play OK before I signed in. Once you tweak it, you are on to something. Also, when I do sign in it takes me to someone else's channel (yours?) Plus, it would be nice if it would store login info, so we don't have to re-enter username/password each time.
Tried this.... doesn't Work....
yay
Worked like a charm on c7 sdboot
thank you
Fully loads videos on CM7 #19 EMMC.
Only problem is that the videos are all flash embeds and the performance is horrible on my NC, overclocked at 1.1ghz, interactive governor using Flash 10.1.
The best part of the Youtube app is that videos are transcoded and play flawlessly without flash.
works fine on cm7 21
Its not perfect. n22 has gotten the YouTube app functioning, but TubeXL still plays standard (and full HD) much better than the YouTube app as it stands now. Im happy to see a lot of ppl have tried it, over 200 downloads in one day.. I hope most of you feel its a great work around until YouTube issues are fully resolved.
Works nice for me.

Shameless Bump to find this thread on my NC...
Here's the new Netflix app that was just released for the evo. i installed it and it plays audio but no video. maybe someone can figure out how to get it work to work for our phones. it says it has G2 support figured it would work since the Shift is just like the G2.
Worked for one movie.
I just loaded the apk attached by the OP.
Worked on my Shift!! I just played a Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie and got video and sound. MST3K:Hercules Against the Moon Men
Tried other movies, which didn't work -- just went back to the queue.
EDIT: Okay, just resumed the same movie and it stopped working. Tried resuming the same movie 3 times, and it worked again, then stopped. Not seeing any pattern.
Yeah, it is not working for me ether. I get to the netfix loading screen and then it just brings me back to the queue.
I tried several other movies. The Sorcerer's Apprentice also worked, but only after attempting to load it 4 times. When the movies does start, it works perfectly. If you stop it, then try to resume, it may or may not work. I guess we'll just have to wait for Netflix to get the bugs out.
i read somewhere that they edited the build.prop for on a nook color and got it to run perfect
I got it to work perfectly. I am running bcnice20 Desire Z port which may or may not have an effect on netflix running. I played many different shows from my queue and searching. Thought I would share for what its worth.
i got it running on my rom. gotta have flash 10.3, and drm.apk, and the other 2 apks that start with pmt. no build.prop editing necessary. audio and video. sense rom only.

Can you attach the additional apk's you are saying are necessary. Trying to get this running for a friend on his shift but I don't have the device with me so I am just downloading to my evo then transferring files when i see him.
The flash update alone should get it working. That's how it is across the fourms and etc. Stock is fine. Problem occurs when its CM7

Thats a no go

Did you update everything after you flashed to stock?

Worked beautifully on NFX Stock for an episode of Blue's Clues for my kid in the car yesterday. Tried to load a movie at work today and it wouldn't play, but I get ****ty 3G at work. Will try again at home tonight.
Also works for me on cm7 Nightly 75 W netflix disable apk

anyone else notice it playing a little laggy e.g The Office
worked for me but i see an update for netflix in my apps. i figure if i update then it prob wouldnt work.?? sprint stock rom
So I tried this on my tab and I only get audio. Funny thing is that it doesn't work on my DROID at all. Cool think is that the website works fine via standard browser. Watching mib over wifi right now in 480p

droxid,
Could you upload the apk for it.
So this is the app that I got off the market and sideloaded on my tab.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6EAVXY7P
My issue is that I get audio but no video. Let me know what you guys get.
On a side note....video through browser works flawlessly.
audio works but picture doesn't.
Has anyone had any luck with this?
Works fine in just the browser.
There is a new version showing up in the market for Honeycomb tablets.... but it won't allow me to download it. Says it's a "developer test".
I read an article that it's now available for the Asus Transformer. Hmmmmm. Wonder where.
Also, it's advertised as coming with the new Sony tablets.
After months of pondering about buying a cheap, but highly rated Android tablet, I took a plunge and bought Viewsonic gtabs, Android 2.2, from tigerdirect.com. Turns out a smart decision! Me & my family love the gtabs, our first, without having to spend double the cost for more expensive Android tablets or iPad. Nice gadgets, at a cheap price. I wish it has hdmi port though. But these are mainly for my kids, to play and to learn, so no hdmi is not a major issue.
Anyhow, I flashed one of gtabs to Gtabcomb Beta 3.3, from my stock TapNTap ROM. I love the speed and performance of Comb, but I currently have the following issues with the Comb:
- Can't play most youtube HD clips in big screen like the stock ROM. I was able to play a few, and compare both side by side, the stock video is more smooth, and better resolution, and in bigger screen.
- Can't play flash on starfall.com, like the stock ROM. Since the gtabs are for my kids, this is a major disappointment.
- Netflix resolution doesn't look good as when played on stock ROM gtab.
- stock camera app doesn't work anymore.
Do you have the same issues with Gtabcomb Beta 3.3 version? I assume a fix is coming soon with new Gtabcomb version?
Thanks to those who spend time on developing this 3.3 version, and sharing steps and experience. Great job!
If video is so important, I would recomend sticking with a Froyo rom since they are the only ones with true, full hardware acceleration. If it's the HC launcher you really like, maybe give the VTL or ADW launchers a try.
Huge thread over in the Android Development forum
Sent from my GtabComb using Tapatalk
The HD video issue is due to the lack of a hardware acceleration in Honeycomb roms. The camera is a known issue and is listed as a known issue in the Gtabcomb thread in the download post. Flash doesn't work in the stock browser but if you download Opera Mobile it should work fine. Not sure aabout the Netflix issue (I don't have Netflix) but it may be related to the no hardware acceleration issue.
Great ROM though, I just flashed it installed it last night myself. Do yourself a favor and replace the keyboard with Thumb Keyboard, you won't regret it.
Yes, HC is a good ROM, very fast. But said, youtube video playback isn't as smooth as clear as the stock 2.2 ROM. I can't play starfall.com (can you try out to see if it works on your gtab or not? ) either, even though i can play flash enabled embedded video clip inside CNN.com.
I currently have 1 in VEGAn-TAB, and 1 in HC. Both work pretty well, but I like the HC better, as it's faster.
I waiting for a new release to fix the smooth video issue and the flash issue. Until then, I love my gtab with HC.
Thx.
I use Opera browser to play flash sites like starfall.com. Works fine. The stock browser just plays sound with no video. I believe this is a known issue.

Could you run a quick HW acceleration test on both tablets and let us know:

Screen Orientation and other issues
I installed the GtabComb 3.3 today. Everything works fine except the following:
1. Screen orientation does not change when I rotate the tab. It's stuck in landscape mode. There is no auto-rotate option in Settings, which is weird. I see only brightness, animation, timeout and screenshot in Screen Settings. I'm using the default launcher.
2. Flash videos only play the audio part, no video
Does anyone know the fix for any of these? Thanks a lot!
the screen orentation is probably turned on in the settings causeing the rotation lock as for flash it will not play in the stock browser try opra mobile hope this helps
You guys realize there is a huge thread on this rom already in the development section

Autorotation issue Fixed
I managed to find why my screen orientation was fixed. There is an option called 'lock screen orientation' near the time on the home screen. I changed it to OFF and the screen now autorotates. Hope this helps someone!
I installed this rom too and it is OK for me. Very smooth and fast. Thanks to zyhong!
I installed this rom yesterday after nvflash my g tablet; download when ok after reboot i experience to many force close, flash not playing well camara as well. browser and the rest of the rom it's working just fine
I got the following:
- 13fps for the stock browser
- 18fps for my HP EliteBook 8440p, Chrome
- Opera Mobile: very slow starting the test program. It got stuck at, "How fast is your browser?" for a long time, ~few minutes. When it starts, it is just sitting there at..."Working..."
I've been using Opera Mobile the past few weeks. it works great and fast. Not sure what the issue is.
One app that doesn't work right is the Ants Smasher. On the VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition STABLE RC1 ROM on my 1st gtab, it works fine and nice, in big screen. On my 2nd GTabcomb 3.3 Beta gtab, the app launches and works, but in very small screen.
Do you have the same issue?
BTW, starfall.com's flash does work for me now on my Gtabcomb 3.3. Using it to read books with my kids...Yay! Very happy on that. Now, if the youtube HD video/Netflix playback issue gets fixed on gtabcomb 3.3, ie, it plays smooth and in big screen, that would be awesome!!! Netflix works fine, but not as smooth as the stock Android 2.2 (when I initially got it on my gtabs).
I'm currently running GtabComb and all is well except for known honeycomb issues. Anyone that wants to apply a logo where the small "android" text is at boot. I have a thread at slatedroid in Gtablet theme section.I have a bunch of different logos to choose from and all you need is clockworkmod installed.Each logo is in its own update.zip file that can be loaded like any rom, but it only loads image.Strangely it speeds up boot time and doesn't sit for long time like it does at the "android" text..I haven't figured out why yet but is a pleasant bonus.
I would post a link but I am new here and have to wait.

didnt u even read the known issue list?
I installed CM7 an hour ago without any problems. The process was about 100 times easier than installing cm7 on my fascinate, which was surprising. I tinkered with it a bit, then tried to play a mkv video and got a black screen. I tried 4 different media players, all black screens. I then went to youtube, tried to load up a video, blackscreen. I downloaded Angry Birds, opened it, black screen. I installed straight from WebOS, didn't have the previous version of cm7 on the pad.
Could it have something to do with the fact I had a custom kernel installed before?

WebOS kernel is irrelevant, it's booting from a different partition.
It should work fine, copy the new 2.1 alpha to the SD card, boot into CWM and do a full datawipe & then reflash 2.1, see if that helps.
I am having a fairly similar issue. Angry Birds and other games will work just fine, but videos don't play. I can hear the audio, but where the video should be there is just black. The only two sources I've tried were Netflix and YouTube.
I was hoping to avoid reinstalling CM7, but it looks like I might have to. Is nobody else having this problem?
With YouTube, for me at least, I have to rotate it horizontally to see video. If you watch in high quality, though, it hardly works. The video doesn't buffer properly (constantly stops to buffer).

As far as Netflix this is a known issue. Make sure you are using down version and not the most recent update. I had same issue, rolled back using my titanium backup version to 1.4.1 and all is well with netflix.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1178425
As to some of the other video issues if you are trying to play local files, a lot of this may be due to a lack of video codecs. I know I can play full profile 720P mp4 on my SGS2 but I get nothing on touchpad...chalking it up to a codec issue that hopefully gets resolved down the road.
