No problem. I've run similar apps, (namely tversity to my 360) on a Q6600 I OC'ed to 3.2ghz with plenty of CPU power to spare. Shouldnt need anything too beastly.

cant get this to work when trying to connect the nook gives me a error saying cant connect too many error. i am able to control the player on my pc from my nook though..
[Nook Color General] soobaerodude:
Got to this to work with using the command-line version of the latest vlc (cvlc) on my FreeBSD server with DVD mkv rips.

I had to convert the mkvs to scaled-down, nook-friendly mp4 files using ffmpeg, otherwise cvlc would crash.
[Nook Color General] tuxhacker:
I installed MS home server to host Windows Media connect and installed UPnPlay on CM7.

UPnPlay let you browse the media contents and call 3rd party video player. I've been streaming DIVX, H264 and MP4 and playing with RockPlayer.
[Nook Color General] robot8:
+1

Yeah, UPnPlay works extremely well. It is very basic and that is just fine, does what it does without unnecessary eye candy clutter. But the UI icons and layout sucks smelly hairy monkey balls. I doubt it can get any uglier.

In my setup I use it as a client with TVersity to stream from PC. Best thing is that it allows you to choose 3rd party apps for video rendering. I use Moboplayer and it just about plays everything that you can throw at it.

I just can't get artifact-free streaming video via VLC Stream & Convert although it would be my app of choice if I can ever figure out how to fix my setup.

So for now, UPnPlay + TVersity + Moboplayer is my only way to get smooth streaming video.
[Nook Color General] robot8:
Glad to hear 1.1.3 works for you guys.

I still can't resolve the problem I have with intermittent artifacts and streaking on my videos. Mind sharing what settings y'all are using?
[Nook Color General] chisleu:
I've been through the first post repeatedly. I can't get good video framerates with 1.1.3.

rebooted and it fixed itself.
[Nook Color General] :
What chisleu said.

Also, my settings are the same from the OP. Try slowing tuning down the video bitrate, and seeing how that affects video performance.
[Nook Color General] dude2k5:
same for me
[Nook Color General] Williamsmith123:
from nook color user manual, i help u find the nook color support formats: 3GP, 3G2, MP4, M4V, MP3, OGG.

so if your video can't be supported by nook color, it can't be play on nook color. i think u need to convert your video to mp4, h.264, 854*480, which can play in full screen with high quality. just google "nook color converter", perhaps u can find what u want.
[Nook Color General] kunamvahees:
I tried the exact same procedure of 1st port.

However, I still can not play any files from my PC, including MP3.

I can browse the files from my PC, but not play it.

"Can not create play command" was the error Im getting..

Im not running android from SD, and I dont have SD card at all. I tried to play a small avi clip from SD card but that failed as well with mobo player, only black screen with sound.

I can play off youtube fine.

Im not trying to play a HD video, just regular TV show rips.

Some one please help. Thank you.

Found Solution: I have to select Play mode before playing clip: Setting -> Player Mode -> Stream to Phone.

This I went to browse and select the file, it plays fine.
[Nook Color General] swapdotavi:
Weird, updated to a new CM7 nightly and now this works. I am confused, but happy.

Having the audio de-sync problem. Trying to fix it now.
[Nook Color General] swapdotavi:
Fixed the audio issue by rolling back to 1.1.3. Works absolutely perfectly now. Really strange; I changed nothing but my CM7 build.

I even have flawless streaming of 720p MKVs now. It's really great that it works, but really frustrating that I have absolutely no idea why.
[Nook Color General] GorillaPimp:
Do the same thing with Wild Media Server, UPnPlay and moboplayer. Also serves as DLNA player for my Sensation and Bravia tv.
[Nook Color General] cdaters:
You can't beat free.

That being said, a number of years ago I bought a lifetime license of PlayOn so that I could stream Internet (Netflix, Hulu, other things, etc.) to my TV through my PS3. You can even configure this setup to work through the Internet.

The PlayOn app is free in the market place.

Another suggestion is Plex. While I believe the media server that runs on the PC is free, the Plex app is $4.99 and this solution does not work with Flash or Silverlight (i.e. Netflix or Hulu, etc.)

PlayOn does not suffer this limitation.
[Nook Color General] swapdotavi:
Does anyone have this working over 3/4g? I'm trying to get it going when tethered to my Evo 3D but I'm having trouble connecting to the VPN via 3g.

How do I figure out what my external IP is? (The one requested in the 3g part of the setup FAQ)
[Nook Color General] streamingvideo:
Quick, simple question that I hope is germane to this thread:

I want to pick up a cheap Nook Color to monitor a local IP camera over a WAN.

The device will be in kiosk mode, locked to a single app, namely VLC, streaming the content.

The camera pushes mp4 video at 640x480, 256kbps, 20fps. These values can be adjusted up or down.

I would be using CM7 and flashing the eMMC.

I won't be watching HD video, artifacting is fine, and I won't be interacting with the tablet.

I just want to verify that the stream will a) work and b) run smoothly.

Any reason to think otherwise?

Thanks in advance
[Nook Color General] DizzyDen:
The NC will do fine for that... the one downfall is wifi only... no cell to fall back on... so when not around wifi network... no video.

You can of course use a phone's wifi hotspot to work around this if needed.

I just installed it and is working great with no force close. Here's the link.

http://bit.ly/heNaB3
[Xoom Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
What's the difference to the version that was/is available in the market? It recognized my purchase and I assume it handled it as an update!?!?

EDIT: It always force-closes when I try to go to the weather details. Most likely the animation package needs to be updated as well. Otherwise it seems OK :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] mobilehavoc:
It works perfectly for me with the animation and everything. Make sure you go into settings -> Advanced and turn off the animation transition to weather details. Without this on it works flawlessly. I love it!!

I love the full screen animations but my favorite is the notification that shows temp and weather which you can have refresh on wake-up regardless of the interval. Just sweet.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
Works nice! Thanks for the tip. They really made it more appealing!

Just one note: Do NOT go in the market and install the apparently available update; this will revert to the 3.4 version! I did that by accident and had to reinstall the beta. Make sure to turn off the autoupdate function.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] flukeSG2:
so we have any screenshots for this? whats different? I have beautiful widgets installed from the market on my xoom running already.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bishop72:
Any way to make this weather icons larger. It is way too small for the tablet screen.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] MrHassell:
Can't set location without it force closing :-) hence is not usable with X10a
[Xoom Themes and Apps] el_bori1:
The only difference is an extra widget for tablets 4x3 and the settings look like honeycomb. I haven't had any force close so far. Look really nice

[Xoom Themes and Apps] keitht:
I also noticed the weather details screen (with forecast) to be different. The icons are larger and it has Honeycomb menu at the top.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kev0153:
My beta expired, any solutions to this? tried reinstalling but no go.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] mobilehavoc:
Same here, the Market version is still 3.4 so not sure what they're doing. I tweeted levelupstudio but haven't gotten a response. Can you try emailing them or contacting them on twitter? I'm guessing we'll either get a new beta or they'll push 3.5 to the Market.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] mobilehavoc:
Got an response from levelupstudio - there's no new beta planned but they're targeting releasing 3.5 to Market in the next few days so I guess we'll have to live without for a bit.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kev0153:
Yeah I'll drop them a note
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kev0153:

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dubar:
New BW is officially on the market. Menu looks better and now there's a 4x3 clock. Nothing mindblowing but the more tablet support overall the better.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
I think it improved significantly! The menus are much nicer, the animations are great, and I could finally update from the betas.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] el_bori1:
Yeah, it's definitely way better. Now I can't wait for Plume.

Sent from my ThunderBolt
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dubar:
Just peeked at my battery stats, 12h on, and BW used 9% of my battery... this would be reasonable I guess IF I was actually using any of the widgets. Could be something in the settings, but uninstalling for now. Good widgets, but I'm happy with my other widgets for now, and it made itself a little too at home.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gruesomewolf:
I saw this as a request and being a PS3 slim owner myself I thought I would give it a shot. So here it is. To install adb push bootanimation.zip to where your bootanimation.zip resides. So in my case it looks like this:

adb remount

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource

adb reboot

and enjoy.

Do the same for the SPC_animation_final.mp3. Unzip bootsound file and you will find the SPC_animation_finalmp3.

Thanks for looking. If anyone wants a flashable zip just pm me and let me know where your bootanimation.zip is on your phone and I will try to get to it.

I am also open to suggestions, thats not to say I want to hear how much it sucks. Everyone has an opinion, just say things you think that may make this one better!

I just added a black/grey one, looks pretty much the same exept the color difference and it sais sony PS3. Its the pre 3.0 boot screen. Just make sure you change black_bootanimation.zip to just bootanimation.zip.

[Nook Color General] only one haze:
I have the free version running right now, but I am thinking about getting the paid version. Has anyone had any experience with this app on the NC? I am not really worried about the live video as I don't have an mlb.tv account. I just want to use it for the gameday audio and other features. Thanks for the help.
[Nook Color General] AMRivlin:
Haven't tried it on the nook or kindle, I installed the free version (and have a premium subscription) on my touchpad and nexusS, free version is fine unless you don't have a sub.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
I Have used it for videos and news, etc. have not tried gameday audio. That was on CM7.
[Nook Color General] AMRivlin:
Lite and Full are the same software, having a mlb.tv subscription opens up all the features of the lite version.

Lite without a sub, is just the stats package.

Full without a sub gives you audio and 1 free game (random team) a day.

Audio works great. Video is decent. Stats package is the same as on iOS.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Seppeku:
If someone more talented then I would do an LCARS Live Wallpaper, Boot Animation, or full blown Theme, I would certainly put you on my xmas list! I know others have done it for other devices, but I need one for my new Tbolt. It has the power to be really nice.

Thank you in advance if anyone would like to tackle this challenge! I would gladly donate to make this happen!

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Seppeku:

Hi :-)

I have been playing around with the Clockwork recovery mod, LeeDroid, Cyanogen and the ROM manager from the Market..

My question is:

Having just restored back to my original HTC Desire ROM using the ROM Manager; Is there any way to completely remove all evidence of rooting ?

-I'm thinking about returning the phone to the reseller for a checkup; but they'll refuse everything if the phone has been rooted ;-)

Sorry for a Noob question; but couldn't find anything that answered my question :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ewors:
To unroot your phone and restore it back to how it was just use the following instructions:

Go to Shipped-Roms – shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bravo

Download the RUU file which corresponds to what network branding your Desire came with

Run the file once it’s download and follow the on-screen instructions

At the end your phone should be restored to the exact state it was in when you got it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bjarnebk:
Thanks for the help :-)

Problem solved.

And my battery suddenly lasts a LOT longer :-D

People generally try to reserve the dev forum for releases or at least release candidates. I think.
[EVO 4G General] SouthernEvo:
I have tried using the Rom in pure stock form (no apps and the standard kernel it comes with) I make a phone call I get high Android system usage . I have tried it with a the new SZ kernel with SBC and CFS *still does it*. I have tried it set up normally with all my apps and everything sync'ing still does it . Now in comparison to your phone and mine here is mine

HW004

All radios up to date , pri rolled back to 1.77 , PRL 60677

The one thing I have noticed is when I refresh the battery usage screen it will flicker another label over the Android System as if the phone is relabeling it . One time it was labeling it com.android.something , I couldnt make it out , another time it was flashing Settings before reverting back to Android System . I dunno if that will point you in the right direction or not or help you in any way .I wonder if its not data related ? *just thinking outloud* since when you are in a phone call it switches the phone to 2G and 3G is disabled (atleast on my phone) till the call is completed . Maybe during that time one of those processes is attempting to gain data access and isnt (Dunno just thinking outloud)
[EVO 4G General] eniamg02:
No problem,its fine just flashed #5 to stop the itch :) (coming from 1.1) I'm really liking the changes.great work

Also I like the 3 day builds instead of nightlies
[EVO 4G General] malibu_23:
if u look @ the processes under android system, salvageMod settings is one of em. amongst other things like google backup transport (id disable that google sync stuff)

but i suspect the savageMod settings like power widget/cpu settings clock/governor procedures prolly do run up the resources % numbers.

on refresh android system seems to say "com.android.systemstateui"

id need hdmi to work and record and freeze it to be sure.

i cant replicate it happening after a call either. after a 16 min call to my GF & 20 min call to my buddy, my android system is only @ 3%

but does randomly read up ion the 30-40% eventaully.

[EVO 4G General] eniamg02:
I don't usually talk on the phone for long tonight I have for maybe an hour all together and I noticed my android system% way up.doesn't seem to make an impact on battery though.

I know this is being discussed just wanted to inform I see the same
[EVO 4G General] barnacles10:
Is it actually effecting anything? Battery life? Any effects at all other than a number?

I have run this rom since day 1. Since we built it. I can screenshot every day and show you this is not a problem for me. However, it could be possible that its reading correctly and that's the usage.

So my question about battery. Are you expecting everything to be at 0 after a hour phone call?

Just a reminder guys .. if you use your phone at you use 20 percent battery, 50% system usage doesn't mean 50% battery. It means 10% of what was lost. I feel many are confused by this.

Just trying to track down the issue here and rule out possibilities.

Loving nightly seven =P
[EVO 4G General] SouthernEvo:
I think what is causing the confusion among the few that suffer from this issue is the fact that its "Android System" spiking up and not "Voice Calls" If I dont make a phone call all day long Android System never shows up on the usage list . Make a phone call and get voice mail mine pops up at 6% usage . So there are a few things that could be going on . 1.Android System isnt being displayed in the usage screen , until a phone call is placed or recived which then makes it show up on the list. Which means this entire time Android system has been hidden from the usage list untill a phone call is made at which time "Voice calls" populate the usage list . 2. Some process occurs during the phone call that causes the android system to kick into overdrive , like I said I have seen it as high as 75% after a 45 min phone call while "Voice calls" come in at 13% or so . Maybe its getting labeled wrong in the usage logs and it should be "Voice calls" as 75% and "Android system" at 13% . Maybe its not anything at all and its simply just a labeling issue . I just dont understand why some users expierence this while others do not . My standard protocol when flashing has always been wipe everything three times (Amon Ra) then flash a format all then install the Rom and kernel . I even have google back up disabled and still causing it to spike if it truely is "Android system" spiking up . Just some more random brainstorming

Here is an attached example of what Im talking about . The phone in the morning never showed Android system at all , Even with me using the facebook app, surfing the web , texting and so forth . I started making phone calls around 12:00 est and boom "Android System" is right at the top . I probably spent a total of an hour on the phone today calling coworkers and realitives etc etc . I do notice that Android usage is slowly dropping percentage wise but it still confuses me as to why its at the top and not voice calls . Battery drain is about normal for me nothing out of the ordinary . Hence why I suggested its a possible bug or its being relabeled incorrectly . When I push refresh the Android System turns into just "Android" before changing back to Android system.
[EVO 4G General] echoside:
Thanks for posting screenshots, I am going to be looking into this more tomorrow. Its 11 PM tonight so figured people wouldn't like me calling them at this hour :p From my experience Android System has always been the highest. It is weird though that it would just all of a sudden show up like that. Also the fact that it doesn't look to be effecting the battery at all makes me think something in the Settings app is acting up. Will let you know what I find out tomorrow.
