Hi, in some apps (such as VLC, Flash player, the stock video player, etc), there appears to be a small black bar at the bottom where the status bar usually is (even if it's hidden, there's still a black bar). I've had a research and saw a solution app called 'full!screen', however I have no way of rooting the device (It's an Android TV box with no USB output, only input). My current solution is to use MX Player, but it doesn't play 1080p videos properly, so I'd really prefer VLC at this point. Any help?
Bump?
there is an app called full!screen is what you are looking for
"I've had a research and saw a solution app called 'full!screen', however I have no way of rooting the device (It's an Android TV box with no USB output, only input)"
Is what I said in my original post. Thanks for your reply though!
Bump? Is there really no solution to this? Can anyone at least tell me if such is rootable without USB input needed?
One last bump?
No one really knows?
Without root u can't fix this. It gives no option to do this.. had same Problem on my Samsung Tab 2 10.1

Ok seems from previous threads answers are a bit thin on the ground....
WE've got he Sky+ app to program n record via our phones but...
Since we've got the media capability - can we not use the Sky Player?
I notice on my pc i require Silverlight to be installed - what if i can this through a browser? or can this be ported into a specific app to log into this kind of thing?
It'd be amazing if i could get my Sky tv on my phone - not just see whats on.
Not supported by Sky, but you could always ask if its on their radar.
virgin Media are starting to support something along these lines so it is possible
Hi, I want to ask if there is a application that allow your to record your phone screen. For example Fraps for PCs. Well I need it for YouTube to upload my phone guides.
Thanks in advance.
There's an app called ShootMe that allows you to record the actions of the screen, however it's 10fps max and your phone must be rooted.
I'm also looking for a way to achieve this without having to root my phone, and achieve an exact duplicate of the information that appears on screen. I would like to be able to do this on the phone without having to connect it to the computer.
Another method is using droid VNC Beta and having VNC viewer installed on your computer. The demonstration I saw looked laggy, so what more if you used another screen recording program on the computer to capture the window (displaying the screen of your phone). I tried to set this up and couldn't get it to work. I believe the phone has to be rooted for that aswell.
Anyone else have any suggestions or ideas?
Cheers
Get an MHL adapter, and connect it to something that can record HDMI input.
Probably not the best solution, and it is quite expensive if you don't have the equipment, but it should work (haven't tried it).
Thanks for the suggestion. Was really looking for a way that doesn't require a physical connection. Like if there was a suitable app for doing the job, just as you would record a video using the camera, an app that basically records whatever is on the screen. Well, there is one, but 10fps isn't enough and the phone needs to be rooted.
Where there are some threads already on the smart view app there isnt really one running on the SGS2.
I can get this working using Darky ROM (non ICS) to an extent in that remote and smartview seems to work. However I thought the idea was that you could mirror your phone screen for games to your TV withouth using a HDMI cable - and this using your phone as a game pad.
so, you run the app and it finds your tv, ( I have a samsung d8000 model), you click dualview and it opens multi display option and then you can see your TV. I can then find no option to swap this to showing my phone on the tv, although it could be the "dual view" option at the bottom which always crashes the app when I click on it. What is odd is that there are no instructions anywhere for using this part of the app, remote and game mode are covered but nothing at all for phone to tv and vice versa monitoring. Any got this app fully working? if so and which ROM combination are you using?
So you've got a Q, and you've learned how to adb install apps to it... maybe even put a launcher on. But if you've got an NFC capable phone/tablet, you need not mess around with a launcher: your device will be your launcher.
As most of you probably know, the Q ships with a fully capable NFC radio. But for whatever reason, google only ever gave it one official function... beaming out a link the the Q App in the Play Store. Even if you already have it installed. They could have just as easily used a tag to do that job. But I've discovered that if you're running a sideloaded app, the Q will beam that app to your phone. Clearly, we're dealing with a fully beam-compatible device.
However, the Q is programmed to automatically push it's beam out when it finds a device that can receive it. To overcome this, you must open settings (either via a launcher or via adb shell, this is well-documented) and go to the "more" menu. Turn Android Beam OFF while leaving NFC on. This allows the Q to still read your incoming beams (they act just like tags, for compatibility) but it stop apps from opening unexpectedly on your phone.
Once you've done that, you can open any app installed on your Q simply by opening it on your phone/tablet and beaming it over. You'll still need a mouse or keyboard to navigate, but you won't have to futz around with getting to the launcher. This is working on my unrooted Q.
(I don't think this has been discussed before. I hope someone finds it useful!)
Thanks for the info, I was actually wondering whether this was available on the stock firmware. When you say you still need to launch/control with OTG, do things like Youtube links not autoplay when Beamed?

This basically opens the app like an android app on the Q. To click on things you need a mouse and an otg cable.

Animal24 has it right. And yes, it's available stock and unrooted. If you send a video to the Q, it will still work. However, when the video stops, it will return to the open app, not the standard home screen. If I recall correctly, music will play in the background if an app is open, and the lights will not dance.
That all said, I haven't used the Q since the new music lauched. :/

With CM10.1 and XBMC, I'm planning on using the Q to replace my Revue. I'm all OTA so I don't have a cablebox for the Revue to interface with, and with Aptoide I'm going to see if I can get the new Primetime working on the Q for finding and watching shows from Netflix/etc. Hopefully some year Primetime will do generic Amazon links instead of the GoogleTV apps. I'm using the new Play Music on my Q and using my phone as a remote. I've discovered that I can't seem to beam from the new Play Music to another device, or at least when I do it won't autoplay.

How are you doing this? ATM, I'm using BubbleUpNp from both sides, Q and phone. This allows me to still use Google Music as well as All Access. If there is a way to get the stock aplication to work in any way, please share

Hi FadedLite,
I'm using DroidMote to use my phone as a remote to the Nexus Q. I also use ShareKM, another fantastic option that lets me mouse "over" to my Nexus Q from my laptop and control the cursor with my laptop's mouse. One thing I need to figure out is a way to trigger DroidMote Server and ShareKM to start listening on boot, otherwise I have to use my OTG plugged mouse to open the programs and start them up once.
To use Google Music with All Access on the Q, as I stated I'm running CM 10.1 and they have a Gapps package that gives you the Play Store and Play Framework, so you can install Google Play Music and Movies & TV, etc.
Welcome to the whole forum, I'm new here and I hope to find a way to solve a problem I have with my android tv box MX9 pro. The first thing I did to whatch Prime Video was to install it from the play store. The application works, allows me to log in and gives me all the movies, tv series available. But when I want to watch a video content, whatever it is, the movie starts for about a second then closes (crashes) and returns to the home page of the chosen content.
Then i tried to install the version for Android TV, obviously not through the play store, and even in this case I log in regularly. When I want to see a video content, the video does not start but constantly remaining the buffering circle.
Finally I tried to see if I could bypass the application by going through KODI and I installed the Sandmann79 add-on for prime video and, although with a different procedure, I regularly access my Prime account. When I want to start watching a video content, after setting the standard kodi player, this seems to start regularly, the time bar advances but the screen remains blank and nothing is heard.
At this point I have exhausted all the options available to me and I am forced to ask for help in this forum.
Is it really impossible to play the videos of the first videos with this device?

I don't have this device but, I'm just wondering if the following will also be helpful for what you are looking for. Don't be afraid to ask for some member guidance within it too.

UNLESS asked to do so, PLEASE don't PM me regarding support. Sent using The ClaRetoX Forum App on my SM-G900T device.
Thank you, i had already Read that post and i tried the last apk 4.10.3 of [email protected] but using that apk, i got an error of internet connection when i tried to watch a video. What i am trying now is to set VLC as external default player in kodi to make sure that all the videos launched by kodi are opened with vlc that always reads everything. There is an xml file to be integrated into a specific folder of kodi but then, when I want to open the video, it gives me a message that there is an external player but I do not open it then, yet, I can not say if this additional method it works or not.
Anyway the procedure suggested in the post you conseiled me doesn't work, at least for me.
Thanks Anyway.
Rockchip, the chipset company already fixed the problem of Amazon Prime Video not working over a year ago on similar devices.
The manufacturer of your tv box must have really outdated firmware and zero support since they didn't fix it.
But Amazon also blocks the tablet app from working on devices with traces of AndroidTV as in your case and the AndroidTV app only works on full AndroidTV devices having Playready 3 DRM, which your device doesn't have, thus the error with the AndroidTV app.
You can use the Kodi addon, it works correctly, check if your are using the latest version and login from the addon's settings and wait, also make sure the InputStream addon is enabled and changed to InputStream and not Kodi or something else.
Thank you. I don't think My Android Device is out dated because received Android 8. Anyway if the problem is with drm 3 no way. Not even with kodi works, i tried all i could try. I installed addon prime video of sandmann79 and enabled inputstream but i only get The movie starting with no image neither sound, only White screen and time bar going on. Therefore i wanted to try an external player as vlc.....
I think i can't go on anymore, the Device doesn't send anymore video Signal to my tv so i can't anymore display it on the tv..... Definitively broken.
At the end of all i got a conclusión that only a tv box is worthy of bringing this name, ie nvidia shield tv, albeit with all its flaws. I had one and despite very few apps were on the play store (Chrome on all), did not have an on / off button, did not display all the shortcuts in the app section, had absolutely no such problems. I gave it back because I did not like these things but I did not think that these Chinese boxes were such a crap. I tried h96 max +, mx9 pro and both of them stopped after two days of work. I think to back to buy a shield tv, the only box worked fine with prime video, Netflix, without lags thanks to his powerful hardware.
