[Acer Iconia A500] mburke178:
i love this app idea. i purchased and tried it but unfortunately had to do a refund on it. I use a 2TB external HD with roughly 160 movies on it atm, all formatted as .avi When i purchased it, it would only show 128 of the movies, was the limit you removed? the other issue i had with it was the movie covers. it would only load about 10 of the 128 movies it showed. the others just said no image available. I find it hard to believe i had 110 movies it couldn't find an image for. I would love to have this working, but with a large collection of movies it seems to lag and not work correctly.
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Hey!

I removed the limit and fixed those bugs in the newest release, so it shouldn't be a problem. Cheers!
[Acer Iconia A500] smd3235:
Is this a feature that you are planning on adding? i have a massive library on my computer that i have setup as a media server, so being able to play those videos would be awesome.

right now i have to use BubbleUPnP (trial) after beta its a paid app =( which allows me to connect to my DLNA server and play the movies with MoboPlayer but its kinda wonky your app is super clean.

[feature request]

a cool idea would be to be able to BT connect my phone and have an app on my phone that can select the movie and play so i dont have to get off the couch and find the next movie, haveing your phone act as a remote would be awesome.

or would say getting a BT keyboard allow this i do not own one so cant test
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Hey!

You should be able to set up a custom directory using the latest version. So if you've got a third party application to take care of the media server path, all you need to do is set the directory of that server path in Mizuu Movies, and it should be working just fine.

There are a few bugs in the current version though, and I'm working on fixing them at the moment, so if something doesn't seem to be working quite right, I am probably working on a fix for just that :)
[Acer Iconia A500] mburke178:
all I have to say is this app is legen ...wait for it.....dary. with the latest update it is working superb. Over 500 gigs of movies on an external hard drive and it works flawlessly. Had to fix the info for a few movies because apparently I can't spell very well, but that's my fault. Only thing I would request is a way to link each movie to IMDB.com or the IMDB app similar to the YouTube preview you have integrated. And it's only 1 dollar. Hell I can't even get a cheese burger at McDonald's for that price anymore.
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Thanks a lot! :-)

I could possibly add a link like that. If so, where would you like it to be? As an action bar button or perhaps long press popup from the movie overview?

I can tell you that I am planning on adding reviews from Rotten Tomatoes and hopefully actor details in the next major release, so that'll help it reach IMDb's levels with regards to their awesome tablet application.

Also, please don't forget to let me know what you think on Android Market. I really appreciate the feedback coming from you guys there :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] mburke178:
il.l hook you up on the market reviews this is well worth it. linking to rotten tomato would work too. i was just seeing if there would be a way to see actor details like you mentioned and or reviews. it would add that extra bonus to make it even better. other then that i can't think of anyway to improve what you have created.
[Acer Iconia A500] vikramdhani:
Looks like a very promising app, i will surely try it out and share my thoughts soon enough

Identifing movies

Hi Michell,

I had a quick question (love the app BTW fantastic addition for my A500). When read the movies the 2010 version of Alice in Wonderland keeps getting identified as the original Disney animated Alice in Wonderland. Is there any way to get it to idenfity this correctly?
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Hi Jeff!

Thanks for your kind words on the app - I'm glad you like it :)

Regarding your question, I'm afraid that there's no way at this point in time, besides manually creating a .nfo file and adding custom cover art. This is because the application includes a "filename decrypter" that I wrote, which automatically removes the year and other stuff from the filename in order to use it for identification.

I am going to change this, though, as TMDb supports movie years in searches, so it's coming in the next release, but currently you have to re-identify the file every time you do a complete library update. Sorry! :(

However, it is worth pointing out that you don't have to do a full library update every time you add a new movie. The application will by default only search for new files and leave all your existing changes untouched.

Cheers

Michell
[Acer Iconia A500] threedfreek:
It is important to remember that some of us bought this app to help us organizeour collection. For me imdb is a petfect way to drill into all aspects of the movie, the actors, and other aspects of a movie or movies... if I could search my collection by artist with your program that would get me a lot closer to what I was hoping to do. Not that it doesnt look and work great!

For me the link could go where the play buttons are. Thanks forba great addition to my tablet!
[Acer Iconia A500] blazingwolf:
Have to say that your doing a great job on this program. Thank you for making it. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Thanks a lot, man - much appreciated! :)
[Acer Iconia A500] lordstrife:
Bought it thanks for the app!
[Acer Iconia A500] vikramdhani:
I am testing the free version but due to some reason it is not been able to find any .avi files from my SD Card and also will it be able to find .mkv files as well or not yet ?
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Thank you! :)

Hey! The app is capable of finding everything on the internal and external memory, including both .avi and .mkv, but the free version will only find five files and it prioritizes the internal memory. Have you checked the option to include unsupported file formats?
[Acer Iconia A500] mjd1975:
I also use this great app, thanks for it. Great work!
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
Great app love it thankyou
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:

[Acer Iconia A500] mmarshall:
Awesome App!

Really great, I just bought the donate version today! Great Job!
[Acer Iconia A500] Micah_Droid:
I would love to buy this but the market says it isn't compatible with my a100?!
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Thanks a lot! :)

Hey Micah! Could you please send me a PM with your e-mail address? The A100 has a lower screen resolution than the "usual" Honeycomb tablets, and the application has currently only been tested on the so-called xhdpi devices (yours is a hdpi device). I'd like to send you a version to try out, provided that you get back to me on whether it works on your device or not :)

Cheers,

Michell
[Acer Iconia A500] FitzysN6:
Another great update mate.

I also like the included video player, would be great to set a default screen size when playing movie. I.e full screen for most of my files.

Keep up the great work.

Cheers

Fitzy
[Acer Iconia A500] MichellBak:
Thanks a lot, much appreciated! :)

I'll include several video player settings in the next update, which will likely be version 1.7.0. Settings will include the default size, subtitle size and colour. Also, any feedback on the experimental subtitle support is welcomed. I know it's not that great at the moment and that some characters are not showing, but please get back to me and I'll try to improve it.

Cheers,

Michell

I really like that widget....great work
[Acer Iconia A500] pimpmaneaton:
I love this app. Thank you so much for creating something so great. Best money spent on an app. No issues besides some missing artwork but who cares about that. Thanks again.

Cheers, I'm trying to improve every aspect of the application and the widget is also on that list. Be sure to try it out when it gets released :)

Thanks a lot! :)

You can use custom cover art, if you want, to fix those missing cover arts :) There's a guide on www.mizuu.tv/faq/

I am looking for the GalaxyS ii stock boot animation to be used on Serendipidty Cappy edition froyo. Will someone please lead me to this?

Thanks..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepherian:
Rip apart the sgs2 rom and find it in system/media and it may be sanim.zip or bootanimation.zip
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sa1yan:
i found a zip on the i9000 forums, except i guess the galaxys2 uses a different method of bootanimations, i get a bunch of files instead of a single bootanimation.zip like there would be on cappy..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepherian:
Maybe the zip you found was the boot ani
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sa1yan:
Yea, I managed to get the bootanimation working after deleting bootanimation.zip on the cappy and then overwriting the files in media with the files i downloaded

but, before the boot screen loads, there is still the att screen and then a black SGH-i897 screen, I know how to remove the ATT screen, but how about the black SGh-i897 screen? and replace that with sgs gs2 screen?

thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrislj:
I think the black i897 screen your talking about is built into the kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepherian:
yep. I believe you would be running the dark core kernel
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whipps:
Right there with ya. I'd like to change the black SGh-i897 screen as well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chazkenji:
The black SGH-I897 screen, as I know, is a splash screen of some kernels :)

[Atrix 4G General] artisticcheese:
Hello,

Anybody on this board actually never did modify their phone and received OTA update from Motorolla? I mean never rooted/unlocked/ etc original Atrix and went through official channels to update it? Can you report if you see "battery jumping" issues (battery available is higher after reboot then before reboot)?

I know it happens on all Gingerbread releases for me but I don't know is it becouse I was tinckering with a phone or something to do with my phone in general.

So I was wondering if 95% of people who does not even read this board and abide by ATT rules after getting latest Gingerbread update actually left with this awfull bug?
[Atrix 4G General] theonedub:
My phone has never been modified (meaning no root, unlocking, PROMs, etc) and it does have the battery bug.
[Atrix 4G General] artisticcheese:
So you got OTA update and on Ginberbread now, right?

You sure you don't have this bug? Please get down to something like 50% battery avaialble and then reboot your phone and see if it's changes.
[Atrix 4G General] mysticdrew:
He wrote he DOES have this bug.
[Atrix 4G General] artisticcheese:
Oh, sorry.

Damn, how on earth this idiots at Motorolla and ATT can release this update to general population with this enormous bug?
[Atrix 4G General] wintermute000:
Stock, unrooted, locked BL and OTA to gingerbread

I'm now rooted mind you but in the last 24 hours I've not observed the bug (yet) fingers crossed. Battery life seems identical to before (basically around 10% an hour with 30 minutes bluetooth music and 15 minutes surfing, 3-5% an hour if idle). I do leave everything on and run skype + trillian in background (I didn't buy horsepower to leave it idling lol).
[Atrix 4G General] bearsfan172:
What about FP scanner? How is that working for you guys?
[Atrix 4G General] artisticcheese:
Did you reboot the phone to check if you have this is issue or not? Let it drain 30% of battery and then reboot and check if battery meter jumps. Several people on another thread reported that they don't have an issue but after actually rebooting and checking stats actually confirmed that issue is there.
[Atrix 4G General] theonedub:
I ran my battery down until it shut off and charging it has been a pain. Once I put it in the standard charging dock it powered right back up and said it had 50% battery left. Turned it off and back on again and it said 20%, repeated that and it went down to 5% then powered off by itself. Left it charging untouched for 3hrs and the battery only made it up to 20%. Really odd.

I ran it down until it powered off again and its been on the charger ever since. I would guess another update will come out to correct this battery bug in a week or two.

Had to delete my fingerprint profile and recalibrate/setup my fingerprint and now it works pretty much like it did before.
[Atrix 4G General] gnahc79:
edit: got it! wohoo, sort of :)

Just tried this and I can't recreate the battery bug:

battery at 70%, restarted phone 3x, battery still at 70% each time

played a game for a while, battery went to 50%

restarted phone 3x, battery still at 50% each time.

used phone some more, phone still at 50%

restarted phone, still 50%...no jumps in battery graph

restarted phone, 100%, battery stat restarted completely (time was only 1 min 6 sec vs 8hrs before the restart)

restarted phone, back to 50% (time on battery did not reset, at 2m 19s)

restarted phone 3x...still at 50%, no time on battery reset

phone setup, fairly stock:

flashed .83 SBF (had the swype beta installed with no stock swype backup), applied the official 2.3.4 through SD card, rooted, swype beta. stock launcher, no battery/task/data monitoring type apps. motoblur account is set up and running.
[Atrix 4G General] theonedub:
Maybe a factory rest will straighten the phone out?
[Atrix 4G General] pookeyster:
I'm rooted, bl locked, and updated to gingerbread using the official OTA.

I saw the bug initially when I had updated my phone while it was around 55% battery level. Immediately after the update, the battery level was at 70%. However, after rebooting my phone again, the battery level returned to normal and registered at 53%. Since then, I haven't seen any battery jumping issues - even after rebooting (it decreases probably 1% after the reboot). *shrugs* Maybe I'll see the battery bug issue if i reboot at a lower battery % level.

In terms of performance of the battery, the overall drain has been about the same as when it was when it was froyo. 1-2% per hour at idle. I usually get somewhere between 4 and 5hrs of display time and it's been the same for gingerbread thus far.
[Atrix 4G General] gnahc79:
It does not seem widespread (using xda as a sample size is way too small and skewed). And it does not seem to happen all the time/seems to occur at random and only on reboot. Yes it's a bug, but it's not huge IMO. If you have it just apply the battery fix in the dev section.

for those that see the battery jump, does the time on battery stat reset?
[Atrix 4G General] anupash:
Me too had the same battery jumping issue. Battery life indicated was highly unreliable and inaccurate. I discharged the battery down to the point it shutdown. After putting back to the charger it showed the battery to be at 50%. I let it charge again. Battery indicator seems to be reasonable now.
[Atrix 4G General] mpalatsi:

[Atrix 4G General] gpagador:
The reason i want to know is simply to find out if the official OTA fixed this bug and if it did that means the leaked beta from kennethpen is outdated since AT&T fixed it and may have also fixed other things (perf, batt efficiency etc.)
[Atrix 4G General] wintermute000:

Held the power button.

At the same time, placed a finger on the screen.

Held it down for 15 seconds or more and it booted up!

Not sure why it only worked when I put my finger on the screen.

I ended up exchanging it either way just in case.

Hey everyone :)

Just wanted to post a reference link to my Mizuu Movies application thread, which is found under the Android Apps / Games section: Mizuu Movies - XDA thread

The application has been developed for Honeycomb on the Acer Iconia A500, and should support all Honeycomb tablets. There's a free and a paid version of the application - would really appreciate it if you'd try it out!

FREE VERSION • PAID VERSION​

Thanks a lot! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] husher:
that looks very cool. Very XBMC like which is a nice Ui. If I added TV series will it bunch all the seasons into one section? Like oh I don't know Johnny Bravo.

Click a Johnny Bravo icon, opens up season folders and then select the season then the episode?

or will I have 5 Johnny Bravo icons on the main menu?

also will there be more customizations in the future if i got the paid version? like something simple like background color or upload my own background?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] tgerbracht:
Looks nice! Think I'll try it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] decepticon:
Great app but doesn't scan /Removable/MicroSD/ for files just internal storage only. Sent him a PM to see about getting it added or the ability to pick specific folders to scan that way my videos recorded with the tab don't show up too.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] xsacha:
I would like a Movie app (and one for Music and Photos too) like this one that scans my networked SMB/CIFS drive.

Is this possible?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] MichellBak:
Thanks! Well, this is the Movies application, so I've actually programmed it to ignore TV show files (although this can be disabled). If you disable it, you'll have multiple entries for each show, yes - one for each episode.

I am however working on a TV Show app, which will have that part covered with fragments, TV show info and info on each episode.

Yes - there'll be more customizations. I've got lots of ideas that I want to do, and by the looks of it, I'll have plenty to do :)

Thank you! :)

Thanks! That's a known bug, because manufacturers use different directories for their external memory. I am however working on fixing it, so it shouldn't be too long. Thanks for your patience :)

I'd actually love something like that as well - and it's something I've listed as a possible feature, but for now I'd really like to get some other stuff done first. Hope you understand :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] decepticon:
No problem at all, perhaps an initial setup window at first install to pick the folders your movies are stored in and give us options for more than 1 for those of us who use both internal and the SD card.

So far this is one of the best apps I have used since I use my Transformer for movies often.

If you need a tester with a Transformer for the TV app let me know.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] MichellBak:
I'll probably just add the different sdcard directories, and leave the setup / updates as they are. I really like the simplicity of simply pressing a button and letting the tablet do all the hard work for you (finding your movies without you having to specify any folders). If you'd like to remove found movie, you can do that from the details view in the top right corner :)

Please note that in the current version, all database changes are deleted when you update your library. This means that all favourites, manually identified movies will be lost and deleted movies will appear once again. I am working on something to (optionally) avoid this.

I'll keep you in mind for some testing :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] samuelong87:
So there will be an update to search in external sd card? I clicked on start search and nothing happened :( very promising though!
