Has anybody been able to get the video streaming from Amazon to work with their flyer/view? I have tried it using my prime membership and it brings up the player screen in the browser and says connecting. After about a minute I get a message saying unable to connect. Do I need to use a different browser? I was trying it with the stock browser. I have the user agent set to desktop and I have the add in set to always on.
Update: Some extra info here. I tried it on my Evo with a custom rom and the hacked flash that allows devices like the Evo to play full flash video. I was able to stream amazon videos on the Evo with no problems at all. Makes me wonder of it is something to do with the flash version that is on the flyer/view.
SOLVED: Well what do you know. I made one of the oldest mistakes there is. I went to the market and did a search for adobe flash player and sure enough there was an update for it. I installed the update and now I can watch the amazon video.
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!

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?
I use p2p4u.net lot of sports and local tv stations for America

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.

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.
I know that their are issues with the BBCi player and ICS update that means the app doesn't work on the Prime but, I found that in practice I can play recorded content from both t.v and radio but not receive live content. In fact their is no menu option to chose live t.v or radio in the app, well not that I can see.
Is anyone else seeing the same scenario? Is it just the Prime or indicative of all ICS powered equipment? Any ideas? Rumour of updates etc?
I know about the get-a-round vis the desktop version from a browser. I am just wondering if it is only my Prime that semi-runs the iplayer app or if this is just a result of the bbc not getting it's app update act together?
I have installed the iPlayer and all it does it to take me to iPlayers web site. The app does start with iPlayers black screen but immediately transfers me to the browser. It seems its trying to do something and then gives up.
I repaired phone software yesterday and worked fine prior to that but now when downloaded it requires bbci media player giving the impression it is about to work and then goes to black screen.Reloaded Adobe flashplayer .apk but to no avail.Trying to source BBCI player .apk and try work around.Such a pain.

Not tried bbci player but wanted to share with you how I access live bbc TV

Hi All,
And my apologies if this is the incorrect forum for this.
I have a minix and one of the main things I wanted this for was to use the livestream.com app to watch the rugby league whilst I live overseas. Just to be clear this is a legal stream and official app available in the play store.
When I load the app onto my box it all loads fine and I can get to the channels, when I then click on a stream to watch, it just loads a still and the spinning loading icon just sits there. livestream have not offered any help for this or any reasons why. So I am kind of on my own trying to troubleshoot this desperately.
Interestingly if I view the streams through the android browser it works fine, but if I use Chrome I get the same issue as the stream tries to open in MX player and just spins.
Just wondering if any of you smart cookies can help me try to figure this out and get some kind of workaround?
Cheers
Dan
