Splashtop - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Awesome app - will there be a release allowing it to stream full-screen games? If not is there a program or something that temporarily switches all games to windowed mode that anyone knows of?

Do you have ICS?
nVidia showed Splashtop at the CES Keynote and played Skyrim in Full-screen...
Maybe you should give the market app a try.

even on Wifi there is a 2 second lag....
So hope your playing a RPG like Final Fantasy because the lag would kill you otherwise
Even Skyrim was unplayable.. he could move around but couldn't kill anything due to lag nor move the camera so he was facing the SKY
you could maybe stream a movie but if you going thru all this hassel just download to your SD card and call it a day or get Netflix, Amazon Prime etc etc

They showcased splashtop thd . It will be available soon through tegra zone

I mean the second part of the posting. I thought that splashtop THD is released because Splashtop put a News out last month: http://www.splashtop.com/press/spla...ad-core-processor-achieves-record-performance

The article says it will be released once Prime is updated to ICS... Since it was just updated only a few days ago give it some time, Im sure as soon as it is released we will see 10 threads based on it on XDA
I.E " I cant play Skyrim with Spalshtop THD please help"

I don't think Splashtop THD is the same as the Splashtop HD that's included in My Cloud. (and word of advise, if you're a Transformer user, avoid the $9.99 Splashtop HD version on the Android Market as it's the same versioin as what's included on My Cloud),
there's not enough info yet on Splashtop THD except that's it's been showcase at CES this past week.

give it time, sure it will come out soon enough

The official article isn't very clear about a separate version actually being released? Makes it sound like the usual version will just have improved functionality. At the end of the day it just needs to be updated to allow applications to run that require 'direct screen access'... I wonder if Mycloud will automatically update it's app.

Wow I feel like an idiot for spending £5 on Splashtop HD. Though I read Splashtop can remote desktop your pc from anywhere but my cloud can only do it on the same wifi network?
No matter.
I find I can run games provided they are in windowed mode. Football manager 2012 was easily playable including the fast match engine.
I havent tried anything like FIFA or GTA (especially as I have icenhancer) but when I get a free day I'll give it a shot.
If you're playing turned based games I think it works fine but you probably won't have the reflexes to play COD/BF3 especially against online opponents. You should also consider that anything like teamspeak or steam etc wont work because your microphone on the prime isnt the one used to speak to others.
I can stream VLC movies quite happily and dont notice any lag. Though if it drops out it immediately plays on my PC downstairs which, when it has the sound turned on...scares the living daylights out of anyone who is downstairs.
I wouldn't advise streaming pron in this manner. Accidents happen.

request for a refund, I did the same thing a week ago, and they refunded my money.
My Cloud has the full version of Splashtop HD, and you can remote to any PC with Splashstreamer installed via your Gmail account.

You have to turn on Internet Discovery in the settings and sign in to your Gmail account on both the Tablet version and the Desktop Streamer and it finds you computer right away

Anyone tried using remote desktop to play action role playing games like Baldur's Gate, Fallout, Diablo etc.? How about when using an emulator on the pc?

I'm not sure if this is old news or not, but the Skyrim demo at CES had a USB XBOX 360 controller connected to the prime dock. The Nvidia rep said that they preloaded all major USB controller drivers onto the prime.

anyone having problems with the built in splashtop app? It used to work perfectly, but recently started disconnecting randomly and i cant get it to stay connected for longer than 5 minutes.

Have you verified that both devices are NOT dropping network connectivity?

[Q] which PSX emulator works best

Now that PS3 controllers work natively, has anyone had experience with PSX emulators on this tablet? which one works best?
I ask before I pay rofl
I use FPse, it works fine, but has sound problems in some games. With FPse I use not original sony controller.
I did not have time to test psxperia version 2. Version 1 did not work.
Sent from my R800i
anyone tried FPSe or PSX player w/ official PS3 joypad via bluetooth?
Tempted to drop the cash on FPSe anyway but if it doesn't work with the joypad then I'll be p1ssed (can't see why not as long as it supports manually assigning buttons).
I swear I bought a PSX emulator in the distant past, ran like a dog on my Nexus One, forgot about it, now can't find it anywhere. Could have been removed like SNESoid. That policy is ---- terrible, at least let us DL the last available version for those who've PAID the money lol.

appreciate it, I'll be getting back to wifi tomorrow (on holidays now so only intermittently available, defo not in a comfortable system tinkering setting rofl) so would appreciate if you let me know how well it works (or not).
SNES emulation w/ PS3 joypad is perfect with SNESdroid (after a bit of manual settings), PSX emulation would be the ultimate.
I don't understand why Sony hasn't gotten off their butts and placed the entire PSX catalogue or as much of it as they can legally manage onto the official PS Store channels, and at a better price point - those ROMs are free money basically. I would happily pay official prices for ease of use/DL etc. if they had a better selection and pricing. (e.g. 3-5 USD per game). Why there's only ten or so titles right now I have no idea (or is there more on the store on Xperia play?).
If they managed it they could basically take an almighty crap on even the apple store's games catalogue in one swoop, the games are all already done and most of them work fine via emulation already.

I have tested to install the FPSE Emulator on my Tablet, launch the FPSE with my PS3 controller connected via bluetooth then proceed to play the game by loading the Street Fighter ROM.
Of course, you will need to disable the on-screen controller layout then configure the hardware keys then you will be able to control using the Digital Pad and Analog joystick to play the game, it is fun playing the Street Fighter game on my Tablet with the PS3 wirelessly.
market error: the item you were attempting to purchase could not be found
?!?!?!?
EDIT: figured it out, its been bloody marked as incompatible in the market for this model. I'm betting Sony had something to do with this. FWIW getting the APK (I bought it on my Atrix) and manually sideloading it works fine.
Bloody sony, typical for them to shoot themselves in the foot (memo: if you're gonna ban emulators, have more than a pathetic dozen games in your official market, and only crap ones at that rofl).
though I do swear even though I'm getting 60fps, it 'feels' way choppier, should be butter smooth but just doesn't feel like it, if I had to guess I would have said ~20-25fps. I do have framelimiter on, because if I have it off the gameplay is on super turbo faster than the human eye lol

I'm running into the same issue. It looks like it has to do with the new dual core option in the latest version (though I'm not sure why it would). I tested different settings with the option to show the fps on. With the Dual core option on it reports that i'm currently running at around 60 fps yet menus and gameplay seemed to sttutter more than they should. With the option off, it reports that I'm around 40 fps and yet menus and gameplay seem smoother. Both os these is with the framelimiter on. I used Hot Shots Golf 2 for testing.
cheers I'll try turning it off lol

Hi all, first post and need help!

Hi all,
I was hoping someone could offer some advice.
I am due to be working away from home for half the month and at the moment my set up at home consists of a beast of a gaming rig. I don't want to fork out for an expensive gaming laptop and thought the prime might be a good option for me.
So a few questions...
1. How do the remote desktop applications fare on the prime? Essentially I would need to use the prime to wake up my pc at home, control torrent downloads and maybe play a game with low graphic demands like football manager (i'm not expecting BF3 or other FPS...could an MMO work via remote desktop? like TOR?)
2. With regards to the "cloud storage" do you get 2gb with the transformer prime? if so can this also be accessed via a pc at home? So I could for example...
Remotely download a movie.
Put the movie file onto the cloud storage.
Access the movie file from my prime so that I can watch it in an area without wifi.
3. Is there a way to add a 3g dongle to the prime?
4. I am due a phone upgrade in March. I currently have a HTC desire which has stood the test of time for it's 2 year contract. Money is a little tight so I was considering getting my phone upgrade and sticking it on ebay to cover most of the prime's cost. I figure I only need a phone for calls and the built in sat nav and the prime can do the rest. also my HTC desire can only get me £75 from mobile recycling places.
5. As I have to wait until March is there a tablet I have overlooked which will be released in March that would be superior to this...basically if i am waiting until March should I hold out for something else?
Thanks in advance for the replies everyone!

Funny, any chance of getting a serious answer though?
100+ views and no proper response?
am i doing something wrong?
1 the preloaded software only works when the laptop is already in but it is smooth enough to play something simple
2 yes download movie in PC upload top cloud storage them you can watch it without wifi our already some services allow that
3 no 3g dongle it's a wifi tablet
4 get the nexus a you can find them cheap and feet ics on them
5 tablets well be the same by March all quad core all same resolution that's my view anyway all you can do its wait and pick on personal opinion

I meant already on* so the laptop has to be open already so you can't turn it on from the tablet and go into the my cloud app then my desktop there is the software to do this

I use Teamviewer, it runs the computer just like I was in front of it, never tried major gaming on it though. I don't think it would work well since most of the login apps out there decrease colors and other things to enhance performance.
2. With regards to the "cloud storage" do you get 2gb with the transformer prime? if so can this also be accessed via a pc at home? So I could for example...
You get 8 gb, and yes you can access/sync it from any computer. I use it to sync my work, Prime, and home computer files
Remotely download a movie.
Put the movie file onto the cloud storage.
Access the movie file from my prime so that I can watch it in an area without wifi.
In order to do that it will have to be downloaded first to your prime, but it can be done.
3. Is there a way to add a 3g dongle to the prime?
Don't know

right now it really is a waiting game to see what other tablets come out by then, if any. Probably the Ipad3 will be out, and I would guess 1-2 more Tegra 3 tabs, but they may hit production delays just like the prime did, no one really knows, right now it is a crap shoot. The great part is this tab is going to be competitive with anything that comes out next year for the most part.
Thanks in advance for the replies everyone!

Ok, my msg is too short....
You can control your PC over the internet using TeamViewer. No, you won't be able to play an MMO or do other major gaming on it. I guarantee you that TOR will be a slideshow, you'll be able to gather nodes (if you log near them) and manage Crew Missions but that's about it.
If you are running Windows7 you will need to use a Magic Packet to wake your PC to manage torrents, etc. I believe there is also an Android app that will remotely manage Mircotorrent (aka uTorrent) remotely without requiring you to manage your PC.
You can share your files via DropBox (or similar) as long as you are mindful of the 2GB limit.
No better tablet has been announced for March release yet, and if it were (given the industry standard of badly slipped release dates) I wouldn't count on it. Now if one had been announced with a January release....
You can remote in using Splashtop HD to remote in. It transmits both video and audio. Just have to install remote viewer software on the pc.

In relation to the 3g single question, Asus feel that as android phones can tether then peeople would just tether to their prime. Obviously they are assuming that everyone with a prime will already have a smart phone with tethering available, this is a stretch.

wow some fantastic comments thank you all.
I think there has to be a limit to expectation here. I'm not expecting the remote desktop to run things perfectly but it won't be it's primary function otherwise I'd just get a laptop.
So £500 then...I wonder if carphonewarehouse would do a deal if you buy a contract from them.
splashtop HD or built in splashtop in mycloud in mydesktop should work fine for video or gaming. just make sure to load reviewer on to PC. pretty simple setup. load reviewer on PC. load on tablet. enter names and passwords on both devices and your good to go.
another thing to look at for gaming is OnLive. its out for Android. allows you to play PC/console/Indie games through the cloud on OnLive servers. response time is fastest out there and basically no lag. feels just as if you natively playing the game. there are some great games up there like PC/Nvidia optimized Batman Arkham City, Homefront fps, Metro 2033, unreal tournament(PC version), etc.. the games look and play great on the prime. no loss in quality basically. the app is free from marketplace. free to make an account. you get to play all the games with a free 30 min. trial period. you can flat out buy the game but best seems to be the bundle package. for $9.99 a month you have unlimited access to 100's of top notch PC/console games. I was playing Darksiders, through OnLive, on my prime. no lag at all, graphics looked sick. definitely a cool experience and great deal considering the caliber and number of games they have up there.

Splashtop THD Release Date

The thread title pretty much says it all - anyone got any ideas?
Splashtop is already pre-installed under the mynet icon, or whatever it's called, same icon you use to access the webstorage
you have 3 sections on the left, the middle one is Splashtop
Is that the HD one or regular?
the one installed is NOT THD. This is not out yet, havent found a release date

Just an FYI....the installed splashtop is under the MyCloud icon.
THE op means the Tegra3 optimized version shown off at CES, Splashtop THD. THE ONE where the people used the THD version to play Elder Scrolls Skyrim on his Prime.
I haven't been able to find a release date on this either. Looking forward to the release, whenever it is.
So still no news on a release date at all? I'm dying for this app!
The Splashtop that comes loaded on the Transformer Prime is a slightly modified version of Splashtop HD. The OP is asking about Splashtop THD which is an upcoming version of Splashtop customized for Tegra-based tablets and devices.
Here is a video of Splashtop THD being used to play Skyrim.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=6nyg2kZfF5A
"Wow it just works..Wow it just works..Wow it just works.."
Well yeh it was the whole point of the demonstration.
My name is Optimus Prime and I send this message..
0__o
Is there any real difference between the HD Splashtop and the THD Splashtop? Can someone explain in detail the differences between these two?
I'd like to know as well. Any news on the release date?
Damn it, I just bought Splashtop HD while it was on sale for $6.
Now I suppose I'm not going to get a free upgrade......
Must say the HD version already works perfectly fine... Will try skyrim on it to see how that goes and how the responsiveness is though. But believe I could watch a video fine (playing on the pc, watching it through splashtop hd on the tablet) already.

Didn't work... when starting skyrim splashtophd says it can not run apps with direct screen access and wants me to run it in windows mode. But in windows mode I just get a black window.
Also, the xbox360 controller blinks all 4 lights when connected (as opposed to 1 for 'player1' when connected to the pc) so dunno if that one works either.

Yes there is a difference between HD and THD. The THD version allows communication between Tegra 3 and your computers graphics card. I'm assuming so your host computers GPU can render the graphics specifically for the tablets pixel density and I imagine there is some sharing of the work as well to lesson lag. You will be able to play games in full screen and your computer HAS to have an Nvidia GPU or the THD version will not work for you.
The HD version is just like the original but optimized for tablets to take advantage of the larger screens and whatnot.
Any news on this? Can't find much on Google.
The HD version that comes with the Prime is okay, but it's pretty laggy. Nothing like what I see in that video where you can play a game on it. Looking forward to a better version.

Spashtop THD now available.

Blog post here, Market link here. $6.99.
Lucky Tegra 3 users.
UPDATE: Full-screen support works if you have a NVIDIA GPU that doesn't use Optimus switching functionality. This was actually done a while ago, and works with all versions of Splashtop (regular, HD, THD). You can read about it here.
Just bought it! Can't wait to test it
Just tried it out and video runs almost perfect! Games was a bit too laggy for me though, but i suspect this beeing because my prime does have a little weak wifi. Anyone get games to work full screen?
Sorry to hear that. I can't test mine yet 'couse I'm at work and Prime is at home.
I'll report back ASAP.
So what are the advantages over the version we already have installed?
Ugh, another version of SplashTop. Why isn't this part of Remote Desktop HD I wonder. I have so many SplashTop apps by now that there's no way I'm going to pay them even more for something like this.
When I load up Skyrim it still asks me to use windowed mode. I thought this allowed direct access to the screen and can run full screen?

So thought I. Doesn't go full screen here either. There are so much lag in games that they are totally unplayable anyways, how did it run for you? Not very smart to launch it to prime only when it has so much wifi issues.
Yeah, I'm confused as well. I bought the HD version, then figured heard on hear there is a slightly less (and not quite as high-horsepowered?) version pre-installed, and now THD? What does this version have that HD doesn't?
They already got $7 out of me. Unless there is a big reason, I think I've already given them a fair amount...
Anyone else frustrated by the Sshift Kkey Bbug on the HD version? Ii Rreally Hhope Tthey Ffix Iit Ssoon... (Makes it pretty tough to get some serious work done)

So thought I. Doesn't go full screen here either. There are so much lag in games that they are totally unplayable anyways, how did it run for you? Not very smart to launch it to prime only when it has so much wifi issues.

Well on my LAN it ran awesome.. then again my computer's pretty tricked out so maybe that's the case?
I haven't tried with my 4G hotspot yet
I thought with the THD version they figured out some fancy way to virtually connect a controller to the computer, this isn't the case, all they give you is game profiles, which are keyboard buttons mapped to buttons on the controller.
You get ONE profile when you buy the THD version, the Skyrim one, it works, but the movement keys are mapped to WASD so you cant control your movement speed.
They don't even provide us with the mapping software, you have to "request a game" and then they will map the controls and create a new profile, thats stupid.
I mean you could go into all your games and map the keys to use the Skyrim profile, that would work but what about racing games, you don't have a axis for movement just WASD, you slightly pull the joystick left and you are fully pressing down A.
Only positive is that they have proper mouse emulation, you can connect up a mouse change the mode to have the remote computers mouse follow yours and use left click and right click..
Can anyone confirm if this is more stable than the version that came with the prime?
I really like the principal behind it but connection would just drop fairly regularly even when next to the router and server wired in.
Also, is it true like they showed in the demo, streaming video is flawless, as though your at the machine?
Cheers guys, I too have been optimistic and really looking forward to the THD version, is it what we expected?
Does this version have remote desktop via the internet?
THD version is optimized for Tegra3 chip. the HD version is just like a tablet version. that was out before tegra3. now tegra3 has a version specifically for us that makes the most out of power or whatever. people experiencing lag on game, if your computer don't at least meet minimum requirements, lag is to be expected. if it does meet specs and you have a fast internet connection then you should be good. can't wait to try this out.
I'm hoping this include this in the next update for us. only fitting we should have it since we the only tegra3 device on the market right now. plus this is the version that really should have shipped with the prime.
Wow, great. I just bought regular HD because I got tired of how unstable the connection in the MyCloud version was and how we weren't getting any updates to fix that.
Why bother including any apps if this is what happens?

in the market description it says yes. it says you can access from anywhere or anytime or any place. as long as your PC at home has the desktop splastop streamer installed and running connected to internet, you should be able to access it anywhere in the world from your prime. as long as prime getting internet connection itself. and a decent one at that.
Great, I had just purchased the HD version last night!:/ Sheesh...
so how fast should my Connection be to even make use of this version? My max is around 17Mb/s. Usually i'm getting speeds between 10-15Mb/s. DSL sucks...

so they made a tegra 3 version or is it just a tablet version of the always sh** fifa games on mobile
I didn't see it on the Tegra Zone, so I'm guess it's just a general port.
yeah it looks like theres a version on the market with 1 review for 4.99 but no mention of tegra 3
oh and that review is 5 stars but no info
I guess this is the game you are talking about Fifa 12 by EA Sports
Indeed, it has no indication of Tegra 3 or tablet support at all, but one of the comments talks about the game running on a Galaxy Tab 10.1, and according to the play store it's compatible with our Primes.
If someone gets a chance to test it, please let us know how is it
For most part, If the game shows in market and you can buy it it will work with your device. The dev,company can select system,device that the game,app works with when uploading it to market.
Bought the game. Is 1257mb to be downloaded. I'll be back later how it works.
But am pretty sure that it will work just fine.
Edit: when making posts to tips,suggestion a games or apps the least you can do is to post links
Edit #2 :Made a little video to show that it works
I've played a couple matches, and I'm really happy with the purchase. Game runs very smoothly, and it actually controls pretty well with the on screen buttons. I have not checked for gamepad / keyboard support yet.

Let me know when you do, neighbor! I've got my PS3 controller as well as an F710 coming in a week.. I'm hoping one of them works with FIFA12.
If you check Andreas527's video, he didn't play it with the onscreen controller, so I checked the video details on youtube and this is on the description:
Playing with the PS3 controller and use the app "Sixaxis Controller" to make the Touch Profiles and to connect wirelessly with Bluetooth.

So, I guess you will be able to use your controller.

Thanks man! I watched the video, but it never ocurred to me there was no one touching the screen.. too focused on the graphics and seeing how smooth it was..
this is the best game to be played on a (quad core) tablet to date!

So was it confirmed that this has gamepad support?
Ive just logged onto the sucky Google Play on my prime, tapped in Fifa 12, credit card in hand, and bught the app...
installed the 1290something mbs, ran the game, and hey presto, black screen and kick back.. did you edit the prop? or just run it..
If you ran it from a modified APK could you point me in the general direction?
Damn.. I went to buy it, and "This item cannot be installed in your device's country."
EDIT - woops. n/m. Guess I should look for the one with USD in the price..

I had problems after installing it but a reboot of the prime fixed my problems. Give that a shot.
Because of the reviews on the market I tried to install via wares to see if it works. People reporting black screen and throwing out on startup, this and the fact it download the 1gb + of data at less than 100kbps means your stuck getting an auto refund.
I unfortunately had these problems so going to hold off on purchasing untilled more stable. After a restart I did get a message about my device not able to use it or something but just backs out again thereafter.
It plays fine here, never had to reboot. Works great with Sixaxis / Dualshock 3.

Is that with native support? Or did you create a touch profile?
