Hey,

Just wanted to say thanks! I've tried the tegra 2 build (neon won't start) on my TF101, it works beautifully! Been trying different skins, the Xeebo skin seems interesting to me. It has touch support, too. TV Shows and movies in SD have worked great over network so far, anything bigger won't properly play, as stated be others but that will surely improve over time. (XBMC on the original XBox was horrible :) )

I'm very happy to see people working on XBMC for Android, I hope it will run just as smoothly on my Pocket TV once it arrives.

Cheers,

Keep up the great work!
[Android Apps and Games] MassStash:
Works better on this, than my LTEvo... weird. thank you very much bro, keep up the great work!!

Wich version for xperia S?

Sent from Xpera S!
[Android Apps and Games] lavero.burgos:
as said in OP try with the NEON build first if it does not work then use the other one.

Your CPU chipset is: Qualcomm MSM8260 Snapdragon not sure about this chip so is better that you try and report back for reference ;)

Does anyone know which category Galaxy Nexus GSM version falls into ie Neon or Non-Neon. I'm having problems viewing live streams such as ESPN. It keeps stuttering both video and audio. Downloaded the Neon version first. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
If you downloaded the NEON version and it runs, then it falls into the NEON category. Stuttering and skipping is somewhat common on older / less powerful devices due to playback being done in software. Hardware decode support is being worked on but not enabled in my builds yet. Once the hardware decode support is added it should improve playback.
[Android Apps and Games] TravisAntonio:
Hello Kemo.

I found a new bug, when you try to use the Vol -/+ the audio gets distorted, I think this have to do with the 15/30 steps volume Android does have, so apparently is to reduce XBMC vol steps or to put up Android vol steps.
[Android Apps and Games] nasimdejai:
Cheers for clarifying the above. I thought my device was the only one experiencing said issues. It's just difficult to watch these streams with the audio giving cracking sounds. Hope the hardware support will rectify it when implemented. Have no issues with the Non-Neon version on my A500. Cheers for all the work you've put in.

Motorola XOOM

Hi,

I'm testing the latest builds on my Motorola XOOM (tegra2 cpu).

The latest build runs more stable but XBMC still closes after some time. (It closes when browsing the menu, not when playing a movie)

Is there a way to see why it is closing/crashing ? Any log location ?

thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Under settings there is a debug option. It will show an on-screen hud with the log location. You will need to note this log location and pull it from the device using adb from what I understand.
[Android Apps and Games] nasimdejai:
Oh OK,may be the xbmc builds have issues with Jellybean then cos the audio output on mine is terrible. I've tried all builds both on Neon and Non Neon,still the same audio problem. Let me know how the video plugins fair on your nexus.

[Android Apps and Games] signupstuffid:
The Flyer supports NEON, and I have acceptable performance on the neon builds while decoding SD video in both GB, and HC based ROMS. 720p though, lags horribly, and usually has no audio, or horribly corrupted audio.

Please add the flyer to the NEON list. Thanks again for making these build for us :)

Tf101 here with JB, non Neon

Constant flicker on latest nightly, can't even close it, doesn't respond to anything.
[Android Apps and Games] CoolApps:
For fixing the flickering: Wipe cache and reboot or all away around, if you get other issues after that try the same fix a few times but if the problem continues report it here

How to close: There are 3 ways, Use the power button in the main menu and when you press it press quit, Use the Home button and/or use the multitask button selecting an application and then get back on the multitasking and finally swiping XBMC off the list.

WARNING: When i tryed the fix, the weather and other networking apps on XBMC will not connect at all but after i tryed the fix, networking works but the weather still doesn't work. RIP WEATHER.

woxter tv 100 + 2.3.1 = cannot install

Hi,

I'm trying to install the latest apk (neon) on my Woxter 100 which has a A8 cpu with Android 2.3.1.

After using several APK installers, ES Explorer or the built-in explorer that the firmware contains, all of them gave me the same result. Black screen. Nothing happens after clicking the APK.

Anyone had the same issue?

[Android Apps and Games] hp420:
I used the very first build that was released for neon enabled devices on my NS4G, and it ran great. it took a little while to load, but otherwise, everything worked.

I just updated to the newest version in the OP, and it is completely unusable. just loading the settings page took over 15 minutes!! I eventually gave up. and in that 15 minutes I was waiting, my battery went from a 100% charge after being plugged in all night to 60%. NOT GOOD. Please try and do something about this...in the meantime I'm rolling back. It's bad when the very first version ever built for your device runs better than one built over a month later and after about 10 revisions.
[Android Apps and Games] dangee:
It has to be install manually. Just unzip the dpstream plugin and move it to the addon folder : android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc/addon. Done !

Question from original post. Running CM9 on galaxy S 1 variant epic is a different problem than the GB one shown in OP (black screen)?
[Android Apps and Games] Vincent Law:
I'm curious as to why the HTC EVO 4G, and not the LTE, is listed as NEON.

From everything I can gather, wouldn't that be the exact opposite, or at the very least, the LTE would have Neon? My phone says it has Neon support...

[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
What GPU does your device have? This may be the black screen issue. If you have a PowerVR SGX540, this is the black screen issue.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Running CM9 on Galaxy S 1 should be fine. The black screen issue is only present on 2.3.x for that device.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
I am working off user reports for the compatibility list. Which device do you have that is listed incorrectly?
[Android Apps and Games] GoldenCyn:
Works just fine on my HTC Rezound running latest ICS OTA, but force closes on my Motorola Xoom running EOS3 Jelly Bean once I try to add a source in the file manager window.
[Android Apps and Games] Tired_:
HP Touchpad running CM9 nightly most definitely has NEON. It's listed in /proc/cpuinfo.
[Android Apps and Games] anthonws:
I think it's probably that GPU. Sorry about posting a more than known question/answer. I though the black screen issue was something when using the app itself and not when trying to install.

Thanks for the feedback,

Great work. Just tested it on Nexus7. Most of the things work, but I was unable to access any windows smb. I had to manually add the path to a shared Dir. Mkv files seem choppy probably not enough juice and no he acceleration. Overall stellar work, it looks very promising. Thank you for all the hard work!

Sorry if this is a dumb question.... used xbmc many years ago on xbox but only just started using it now on my Nexus 7.....

How do you upgrade from one nightly to another and still retain all settings and media library?

Thanks all..
[Android Apps and Games] BULLIT22:
Copy your userdata folder to somewhere other than where it is. I usually move userdata folder uninstall then reinstall. I posted this a few pages back...

I uninstall and reinstall normally and all my data and settings are there when I open the new version in my nook tablet.

Just wipe cache of the app before uninstall.

Thanks Bullit, I will try that when I next install.... as an alternative would a Titanium restore (data only) work as well?

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------

Thanks for the reply... I did sort of try that when I went from the official build to the nightlies but lost all my samba shares, movie library etc... not a big deal really but I guess the official and nightlies are quite different now.

Just wanted to confirm that I got this working on a Coby MID7042 tablet with the Non-Neon 8/17 version

btw on first run there was about a 2 minute black screen right after launching.....i just waited and eventually the xbmc logo popped up. After that the program opens instantly
[Android Apps and Games] CrArc:
This is worth noting (but probably has been a million times in the 40 or so pages I have yet to read...) that the first boot can take a while and should hopefully not be interpreted as the black screen fault.

On Gingerbread, my device (Sumvision Cyclone Nano Slim+) even throws up a few "XBMC is not responding" error messages. Kept mashing "Wait" and there it was, now it loads OK.

Of course it died within seconds of me trying to play a video, but it wasn't a build from this website, it was from the Pivos XIOS forums (and it's nearly a month old build now) so I will try one of these and see what happens!!

DVD Playback only from video_ts.ifo file???

I have a library of DVD backups on a SMB share. Actual files not .iso's. When I point XBMC on my Nexus 7 to this share it recognizes these and gives me a menu of them to select. However, when I select them it gives me an error when it tries to play them. If I browse the folder structure and select the video_ts.ifo file it plays them fine. Here's an excerpt from the log file:

[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
I have no idea why this is dying out on the XOOM's. It seems specific to the EOS roms and 4.1. There are other 4.1 ROMs that were crashing but were fixed in a ROM update.

I had just came up on this XBMC for Android for the first time today.

Ran it on my Epic Touch 4G, and man, this app or media center is beautiful!

Everything seems to work as far as music and video and images.

The only problem I saw was when I play a HD video or anything 720p or higher, the frame rate drops very low and the video is not watchable. This is amazing. I will be keeping an eye on the development and just want to say great job to the team behind this.
[Android Apps and Games] tatubias:
The lowrate is a known issue, they are actibly working to get a final version to be released. But by the momentbthere is not a release date. We need to continue testing the versions and reporting issues so they are fixed before a final released is dobe

When I set my media server (ps3mediaserver) to transcode audio to PCM, I lose sound on my videos.

Do I have to change something in the buildprop( I've read this somewhere but don't know id its true) or are there some hardware limitations for this app?

[Android Apps and Games] DivinityCycle:
Well this is weird.

Forgive me if I simply missed it when looking through this thread.

I am running a nightly build of CM10 on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3113, the "WiFi only" version).

Initially when attempting to run XBMC, I got just a black screen.

In the XBMC log, it looks like the relevant stuff is:

09:01:21 T:1074130944 ERROR: EGL couldn't create window surface
09:01:21 T:1074130944 NOTICE: Checking resolution 12
09:01:21 T:1074130944 INFO: EGL not configured correctly. Let's try to do that now...
09:01:21 T:1074130944 ERROR: EGL couldn't create window surface
09:01:21 T:1074130944 ERROR: EGL couldn't make context/surface current: 0
09:01:21 T:1074130944 FATAL: CApplication::Create: Unable to create window

This was the first time I launched the app.

The second time I launched it, I actually got into XBMC.

My biggest issue is that its impossible to "click" on things normally.

I am finding that I have to double-tap on most elements for it to count as a "click".

I am unfamiliar with XBMC's touch protocols, so I don't know if things just aren't being recognized properly, or if I can adjust thresholds for what a "click" is in AdvancedSettings.xml or what.

The irony is that the tablet I am running XBMC on for this test is the one I usually use as my XBMC remote...

So far, I haven't been able to do much, since navigation is very tricky.

I was able to get a Videos source defined, but I don't have any videos on my tab at the moment.

Is there anything in particular the devs want / need tested?

Overall, I am very excited to see XBMC make the jump to Android. I'm gonna try it out on my 10" tab when I get home :)
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
The error you posted is similar to what I've seen in other CM10 builds. The CM10 builds are still a bit unstable with XBMC. I would expect it to start working better when CM10 is a little further along on devices.

They already have a build using amlplayer for Pivos on the Pivos forums at http://www.pivosforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=811. If the Pivos is your device of choice, you'd probably be better off on their boards than here because they have their own Pivos-specific builds.

Thank you for the strong work!
[Android Apps and Games] wheelbot:
Is there any reason why you choose not to release the aplayer version too?

also if you don't want to mux it can you link/provide instructions how to do it ourselves?

cheers.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
I chose not to in order to prevent further confusion and fragmentation. Pivos did sponser the XBMC port to android after all.... Also, there is a two week window each month where the nightlys can be very unstable and I'd rather not release a build with a major issue and flood their forum or support lines.

You should be able to use the standard build instructions (here) along with the configure option posted previously in this thread.

I should have installed them one by one. I have forced stopped the application and cleared the cache several times. Every time I start the application I get stuttering with no control over the application.

I am uninstalling build 20 August and installing latest build 22 August. I will then install repositories one by one.
