I am at a loss here and hope someone can give me a hand. No video playback on any of my devices.
tested on so far.
Droid1 running 2.3
Incredible running 2.3
Thunderbolt running 2.2
Galaxy Tab running 3.1
AppleTV2 running whatver pos latest os is on there
my server is a Windows Home Server 2011. my router is a D-link 4500
Port 32400 is open to UDP/TCP also
tested playback on mkv,avi,wmv,mp4 and streaming plugin with all failing
no errors just dont play,
any help would be epic at this point..
are you able to access "http://homeserverIP:32400/manage/" on a desktop other than the home server?
The phones you listed, is that just stating what firmware they have or that they are streaming with that firmware?
Custom ROMS have been known to have issues, for instance, I stream no problem to my stock Captivate with 2.3.3 installed, but I have an issue streaming to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 with TW... (funny thing, both are leaks from Samsung not custom ROMS)
More info about the devices your trying to connect with might help.

I don't think many people run plex here. I only had an issue with getting plex working was when UPnP was enabled. I disabled the service and did the firewall settings and enabled it again, been working no problem since.
With as many devices you have trying to get working, you might be better off going to the plex forums and inquiring there. http://forums.plexapp.com/
I've read through before and they do not support custom roms, only stock. And as for the galaxy tab with calkin's, it does not work for me either but it does on stock honeycomb and the first KFC touchwiz release. I am hoping the new official touchwiz will work out of the box. Good luck!

Yeah which version? The only one that worked for me was KFC release. So if its KFC based then its the Euro ROM and I am only interested in the US release.
I tested KM7 and KG8 and both did not work for me, but it did on my Captivate phone.

I haven't found a format it can't stream I have tested extensions *.mkv, *.divx, *.avi, *.m4v.
It did have some troubles with mkv that had DTSHD as the audio, but they have released two updates since and I have't tried again. I set all audio to downmix to stereo to help with keeping the bandwidth down.

Well I am on my third Gingerbread rom (6th overall rom) and I finally have gotten the Vulkano to stream in all situations. Last night I downloaded CM7's nightly build 58 and flashed my G-Tablet. Installation was very smooth using clockworkmod and all 128 apps were restored using Titanium back with no problems. I had wiped and formated just about everything I could before doing the installation. After that I went to the market and downloaded the Vulkano player and at last sucess. I was able to stream from the vulkano both locally and over the internet. I realize some other people have had sucess using Corwins rom (CM7 based), and that was going to be next if this did not work. I had previously tried G-Harmony with no sucess, and then Vegan Tab GB with limited succes. The strange thing with Vegan Tab was it would stream over the internet however it would not stream when I was home locally. Watching the bandwidth I was getting at home the software player seemed to choke everytime it was over 1 mb/sec. When I was out of the house and connected over the internet it worked fine at speeds anywhere from 300-900k. This leads me to believe the hardware accelleration that is now included in CM7 is working with this app allowing it to run over my local network. Another thing that I have struggled with is getting recorded shows downloaded to my G-Tab. Well I still can not get it to work with any rom and the vulkano player but I have a work around for now. By down loading the videos using UPNPdownloader (avlalable in the market for free) you can then watch the recordings using MOBOPlayer or Rockplayer. Now for even better news when Rockplayers asks if you want to use hardware decoding and you answer yes the videos run close to flawlessly. On the other two GB roms it obviously would not work using the hardware decoding. They did run on the roms using the software decoding but they would stutter even at the lowest recorded resolutons. When playing high quality recordings they would be unwatchable due to the delay in video processing in which the sound which was a full 3-5 seconds ahead of the picture. This would make all sense since the Vulkano records in the H.264 video format and if I am not mistaken that is the portion of hardware accelleration that is working. Well I hope this helps someone else.
Lastly I do miss the Vegan Tab interface, the VT Launcher was very smooth and the rom was much more tablet oriented. I can not wait until gojimi includes this in his rom since the rom is CM7 based if I am not mistaken. Please excuse any typos and good luck.

Interesting. I have a vulkano, and am running vegantab with pershoot's latest overclocked kernel - I have not gotten around to getting it set up, but under that other OS (er, iOS?) I would pull over 2Mbit/sec (more like 3) for local HD content, and 1.5+ for remote (yay for comcast HSI) - I should test it out. I'll let you know what I see tomorrow!

Sounds good I am interested to see what happens. I am currently streaming between 1.6 and 2.0 mb/secs locally using the wireless router Verizion put in when I got Fios. My iphone streams locally between 300k - 600k usually.

VeganGinger just gives me a black screen and spinning "buffering" with the Vulkano inside the home. Meh. Not so good!
For the record, Vulkano (Monsoon) refuses to support G Tab and Android 2.2 at all. I'm now in a legal war with these clowns. be careful on CM7 as you may still encounter buffering quite often and screen lockups.
Vulkano issues on CM7 for Evo
I have the Vulkano player working flawlessly on my Nook Color running CM7.1 RC1
However, I cannot for the life of me get it working CM7 and my Evo 4G. Tried the stable and testing builds. I'm still debating if I really want to move to a nighly, but I might just do it to see if it works and restore back to 7.1 RC1.
BTW, I'm so happy they finally have a root process for the Evo 4G on Gingerbread!

Hello,
I am trying to make if possible the android vulkano application to work with 4.4.2 or Lollipop and stream while the screen is off.
This was possible with my 2.3.7. But with newer devices seems impossible. I am digging up some old vulkano posts incase somebody figured this out.
Thank you very much.
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

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
but ... anime seem to play smoothly anything anything live action seems a bit slow, think that is is something they will fix when it officially comes to shift?
anyone else notice it playing a little laggy e.g The Office

Not sure, but it's probably an issue with there is no official ICS for the Rezound so it isn't compatible with ICS yet . Once there is an official update I am sure HBO will fix there app otherwise I am not sure if anyone has tried to hack it to make it work.
I have been looking all over for a work around but have had no luck. I hope it becomes available soon for ics! I miss it and will definitely keep eye out for it. If anyone has any luck or any news please share! Amazing app!
Quite an annoying app. Doesn't work in ICS but also doesn't work in a jail-broken iPad 2 although it works fine in a stock one.

It is HBO on demand. It has all their content. It has every season of all their original content like Oz, The Soprano's, True Blood, Eastbound and Down and all the others you can think of.
It also has a ton of movies. More then what is available on your TV.
I just installed it on my Wife's Rezound still with GB and I was pretty shocked to see all the content that was on there.
Was looking to get it on my Galaxy Nexus though!
HBO Go with ICS through Dolphin HD
I couldn't get the Android app to load on my Touchpad with ICS (CM9) either. But I was able to use the Dolphin HD browser, set the User Agent as Desktop, the go to the HBOGO website and login.
The videos are not optimized for this ROM or maybe ICS in general. But, after a lot of buffering, I was able to watch a recent HD movie. The resolution was good, but the aspect ratio seemed wrong (squeezed vertically).
This is adequate as a temporary workaround, but there are too many display and buffering issues to use it regularly, IMO.
reason for the title is streaming to my car stereo, on my vodafone stock 4.0.3 rom it shows the 1st track played with the stock media player but will not update to the next track when it changes unless i cycle through the car stereos display option until i get back to artist/album/track
if i use PlayerPro Music Player it shows the 1st track and refuses to update unless i power down.
now, if i restore paranoid android and stream using PlayerPro Music Player it works fine!
wondering if i can flash anything over the stock ICS 4.0.3 (i like everything on it, it all works like it should and the BT streaming is the only bug i have with it ) such as modems or kernels as i have no clue what contains the bluetooth files that are causing the issue.
i really want to keep it as close to a stock samsung 4.0.3 as possible.
can anyone suggest a way to sort this ?
thanks.
Anyone?

Most likely a problem with Samsung software. Have you tried installing a newer Samsung build that may have fixed that problem? If you have the most recent version then I'm afraid your gonna have to stick to aosp if you want it to work

no i have not, that was my next plan though, the vodafone UK release was quite early on in 4.0.3
i take it i will need to use another carriers version as i think the stock release is also quite old

I had a lot of problem with bluetooth, the only ROM works fine for me is the Cyanogenmod 7 (cm-7-20120701-NIGHTLY-galaxys2).
it seems any android 2.* roms worked fine, just a problem with 4.0.* samsung roms, would love to figure it out but i don't know what to do next.
Is it or does the new version of Allshare app blows in comparison to the old one (S2)?
I'm assuming I'd have to root and deodex my phone in order to copy the old one?

Agreed.. I want the old AllShare back! I tried pushing the apk, but it only starts then FCs. :crying:
Here's a couple of the bad things I've noticed:
The new one is not backwords compatible with the PC version of the Allshare app, therefore installing another web based app
Any video I stream from the phone has to buffer every 10 seconds, unlike the old one, same video, is silky smooth with no hicups
I can't browse by folders!!!!!!!!!! I have scroll through hundreds of videos!!!!!!!!

Also, I just realized the other day that you can go into More Settings -> Nearby devices -> File Sharing. You can also share that way. However, playing with it I am not able to stream MKV container videos to my TV. Whereas with the Allshare App I attached above works no problem. You can stream MKVs without issue. The only issue is that allshare is hard to see because of the white theme and the thumbnails look a little pixelated. Its works fine though
Yeah, I miss original Allshare too. I can't seem to find my Onkyo Receiver to ouput to.
