[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
It was probably more aVia chose them and not the other way around...

I know they worked with Plex developers directly.

aVia may have been the only local file player other than Real Player to show any interest.

Most of the best players are one Developer driven products and didn't show interest when Google asked for people interested.
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
One of the things mentioned by Avia Tech Support was that Avia came installed on some Google TVs. They had asked what app was on my Samsung Smart TV.
[Google Chromecast] sherdog16:
Most stuff just said unsupported format. However, I took a fresh rip and encoded a test and it worked so I think I may have gotten it. And to the other poster, I'm pretty sure it was aac audio I was selecting
[Google Chromecast] sherdog16:
So i just wanted to update:

I'm finding that some videos that say "Unsupported Format blah blah blah" that I try to play from my phone will play fine when transferred to the laptop and shared through windows media center. The kicker is that some videos aren't showing up in Avia when dropped in the same spot as everything else. Note: The machine is a netbook with Windows 7 and only a 1.33Ghz dual core so it's not transcoding anything.

Even more strange; when i try to play the same movie through my plex server on said netbook with the paid plexpass android app, it then attempts to transcode and fails horribly with buffering every 2 seconds. I'm finding that playing local content with Chromecast has a TON of "ifs and buts". Basically, it's all very simple if you have a powerful desktop, but not so easy for those of us on a budget... which i think is most of the people who bought the CC, due to the price point.

So if I can just get Windows Media Center to show all my converted movies, which I can't, I'll be fine. IDK, I just felt like venting my frustrations with this whole venture. Back at it tonight i suppose.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Not sure if WMC tries to conform things for XBOX/UPnP compliance or not... We'll assume it doesn't though.

Sounds like Plex is just being hampered by poor transcoding performance. Netbooks tend not to fare well with high-performance tasks, especially CODEC-related operations. A desktop with more RAM and a more video-friendly optimized CPU would definitely fare better.

You might be having network performance issues on top of that.

Chromecast has a ton of "gotchas" with playing local content - because it's not really designed for that. Its primary purpose is an Internet streamer. Beyond that, it's a bit like using your phone in lieu of a laptop. You can do it, but you're subject to restrictions.

I'm still in search of an "all in one" solution as well, but seems there is none.

Plex is awesome for my non-DVD/BD content because it can transcode for whatever client... but I'd have to convert my DVDs/BDs

TV + phone/tablet

WMC+MyMovies works well for my DVD/BD content - and it works for my video content too... but then I'm tied to my TV - can't watch on my phone/tablet, and control via my phone/tablet is klunky at best for non-DVD/BD stuff (I use TMT for DVD/BD playback - its Android remote app works fine).

TV

Avia plays my local content... and casts it too, but not if it requires transcoding

Phone/tablet

RealPlayer cloud needs me to throw non-compliant media onto their cloud before I can cast it

Phone/tablet

If/when the MyMovies Android app is released (they're working on it) I'll finally be able to cast my DVD (and hopefully BD) content which may render my WMC machine obsolete... but still not an all-in-one solution.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Also Transcoding is still a WIP as far as Plex goes...They are slowly getting there but it would seem it still transcodes even in some cases where it probably shouldn't have to or doesn't transcode in cases it should (notably MP4/H264 Level 4.0 or lower/AAC)

Transcoding will not operate properly on a Netbook. What is happening (and this is a guess) is Plex is trying to transcode for aVia and the system can't handle it. The Error says incompatible but that is because the transcode isn't working.

aVia can probably handle the file fine without Transcoding but Plex doesn't care what aVia will handle it transcodes based on the Source and without a profile for aVia it is probably just using a Generic Transcode format that your Machine is choking on.
[Google Chromecast] sherdog16:
Yeah this is what has me miffed. Plex is great. Looks great, reads everything in, so on and so forth. I never figured the netbook could handle any transcoding, i assumed direct play would be okay as I can encode the files on my work PC (which has plenty of balls) to be compliant. But it frustrates me now when I have a file that is obviously CC compatible (plays fine through DLNA via Avia) but it then attempts to transcode the file when it shouldn't have to. I wish there was a "force direct play" option with Plex (or maybe there is and i'm not aware). Orrrrr i wish all my files that I encode with the exact same settings in Handbrake would read in through WMC so I don't even need Plex, and I could just use Avia.

I feel like I'm RIGHT there with this but can't quiet figure it out. It has me obsessed with "beating the problem" so to speak.
[Google Chromecast] smrsxn:
I faced this wierd issue before...

For some mp4 files, when put locally on my android device, can stream fine to chromecast.

Same mp4 file copied to a network location and streamed via vget to avia did not play at all.

For other mp4 files (exact same coding done via handbrake)... they play well from both local storage or network storage accessed via vget.

I was never able to solve it.

Its very puzzling and a random hit/miss
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
WMC is supposed to be a DLNA-compliant source, but how it determines what it does and doesn't serve is a bit of a mystery... I suspect it's something to do with the Homegroup concept that I still avoid. :)
[Moto X Themes and Apps] eyc:
I am brand new to Tasker and was wondering if anyone has any experience using Tasker to modify Active Notifications. Here's what I'm looking for:

When I'm at work, I don't want my Active Notifications to show me any work email notifications. That's because I'm always sitting in front of my PC, which will notify me of new emails. Since I'm getting numerous work emails throughout the day, it becomes tedious to clear the work email Active Notifications every time I get them.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeZoR:
Hi Guys!

I am curius if there are any differences between the newest FXP and the most recent official CM 11 ROMs?

Asking because I am planning to flash CM in the next couple hours/days and am not quite sure wich version I should take, but i guess I would prefer the official one, just because, well, it's official :D

As far as I know, the pretty much only bugs are the non working GPS which shouldn't be THAT kind of a deal, I am gonna be able to live without it until it gets finally fixed.

Thank ypu for your answers, i hope my English isn't too bad (out of Europe AND typing on the phone, that can't end good ;) )

I recently flashed CM11 2014/01/16 (experimental) onto my z1 C6903 and my GPS doesn't work, as you rightly point out. Yet here it is suggested that the GPS is fixed.

Is anyone else running the most recent official (not fxp) cm on C6903 and can confirm for me whether or not their GPS works?

Thanks.

I just bought a Xda IIi in an english version. But I'm looking for a Swedish version.

Is there any Rom for Xda IIi in swedish?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Pis_Man:
Since I've searched and haven'ta found anything, I took the liberty of opening this thread. Does anybody here knows of any other program except "HTC Sync" and "HTC Sync Manager" for "copy - paste" contacts from or to the phone? Just like the one NOKIA had "once upon a time in ...Texas"? It is really annoying to try and sync the contacts with the Outlook with one of the above mentioned progs, and sometimes they're erasing everything even though the settings are correct... Don't get me wrong, but "Simplicity" is my MOTO...
[HTC Sensation] DobbyDook:

Congratulations for new forum. ;)

and...

waiting for audio to be fixed.

and

as always great job. :good::good::good:
[LG Optimus Black] cstyves:
Grateful thanks

Good work with the Rom !

I really appreciate all the work you've done ! :angel:

If you need anything, like always, just ask ! ;)
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
the last days there was really a HUGE amount of work, all these administrative things and getting the base of the rom itself done.

but theres still a lot to do and no break in sight ;)

hoping to get time for audio soon, its really bugging me.

thank you so much :)

you know, gfx' are always very welcome hehe :)
[LG Optimus Black] matshch:
Good :) I have leaked one of the latest zips on a big Russian forum this morning, only good comments :D Except of audio, of course :)

Good work. I wanted to request for a few features

1."XPosed Framework".

2. Viper4Android (it works out of box better)

Tried to register in forum but found some difficulty in doing so. Also for gerrit your link should be with http and not https.

Again Nice work
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
mhm, im afraid that will not happen :/

we are very open with requests, but there are some things.

as proprietary is likely not to get included, and thats what Viper is, even if it may work better (btw our tuned DSPManager is badass though)

and XPosed, i know a lot of people use it, but the thing is like that.

if we include it, it means we "support it officially" which results in, we have to fix everything which xposed may break and that is very likely to happen, as it modifies the system.

and thats a no go.
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Ok got your point! But meant DSP is badass anyway? hehe!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
yeah haha.

it has some additional effects (bass boost, stereo widening) and also a brand new interface ;)

https://github.com/NamelessRom/andr...mmit/48acef92682148840eb7f9620ab0b543d67f701d

though its not much of use until Audio is fully working anyways :)

Saw the link...looks promising but till sound doesnt work cant compare and say anything.
[LG Optimus Black] tramp20:
I flashed this new ROM 3 hours ago and now I am restoring my apps with Titanium step by step with making CWM backups of course.

Until now it looks very good and stable.

1. Can I install SuperSU and if yes what is preferred: install from market or flash the zip?

2. The boot animation could be improved IMHO.

3. I changed the launcher to XPeria Z 2.06b (compatible to Android 4.4)

4. GPS is really not better as in Velox and stock ROMs (5-10 minutes until a fix), IZS and Mackay need 10 seconds. It seems that your ROM does not use A-GPS.

Thank you for your hard work developing a new ROM!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
you dont need to flash supersu as superuser is already integrated :)

bootanimation is a default one, its really high resolution and thats why its REALLY slow and laggy, we just need to decide a good bootanimation :)

launcher is launcher3 by default, but it really lacks a lot (like every previous one, trebuchet too) so im running with Nova (fast and lightweight, regarding ram udage too)

gps is hard for me too test as the second hand p970 i just bought for development is half broken (my first one broke completly so i had to buy a second one) and i dont really use it much.

though i applied gps tweaks but still it seems something isnt sticking how it should (propably kitkats new way of handling sensors, maybe permission changes etc)

5) audio doesnt work so it shouldnt be used as a daily driver until its fixed ( someone donates some time or helps me out? :p )

Sent from my GT-I9505
[LG Optimus Black] vsg24:
I think u should make a boot animation for your brand (Nameless ROM). a light and beautiful one.

--------

also pls don't change launcher. let launcher3 to stay default.
[LG Optimus Black] tramp20:
Yes, I know it but I like SuperSU much more.

I installed it from the market and it worked at once, so no problem.

First I respect your really hard work with this ROM!

Do you use the same kernel as in your Velox ROM?

Can I use another kernel perhaps from Mackay (very stable)?

I tried your ROM yesterday with installing my usual apps (they are running perfect in IZS and Mackay but not in Velox and now in Nameless) but I had to do this without the back cover of my phone to be able to remove the battery because of the permanent crashes.

These (kernel ?) crashes are not repeatable, sometime the phone reboots but stucks during the boot animation.

As mentioned the Velox ROM on my phone is almost as unstable as the Nameless (I cannot count how often I made a fresh install).

I will try again and again, now with only some of my apps and the default launcher.

Please believe me I will help you :)

Edit and solution at least on my phone:

the culprit was SuperSU. Without it Nameless is very stable since 1 week :)
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
kernel is default kernel without extra tweaks.

it reboots because it panics inside the system, as its not fully done yet, still a lot needs to be ported, eg audio and hardware composer.

Just tried for an hour latest nightly (0205).

I'm coming from Mackay reloaded, which i consider the best daily usable rom for ob (except video recording and wellknown cm issuses like bt, but i dont need it).

Well, i have to say, evisceration, awesome work, it's really smooth and speed never slow down even with many apps in background, really nice ram managment . Camera works, pics are fine. Recording works, but low framerate (it's ok, only with stock roms u have decent fps).

Phone part is working good, i saw no issue. I just had some ui forceclose (ui.android process).

I think it will be my daily rom soon!

Keep up the awesome work.... maybe u can make me save some bucks and wait to change smartphone! long life to ob and hail to Evisceration!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
thanks ;)

oh and by the way, [MENTION=3033992]kasper_h[/MENTION], the creator of the original mackay rom is with us as well, give him some thanks too if you see him, he's a awesome guy. :)

installed nightly 0502 and the rom is usable; only two request; 1st is possibile to change bootanimation, the actual is too slow (seems a super slow motion :)) ; 2nd is possibile to go to recovery from reboot menu?

Good work Evisceration & team!!! :) I had never thought that OB would have had kk :)
[LG Optimus Black] ptxpaulo:
To have recovery just go to Settings--> About phone --> and click 7 times in Compilation Number. Then it's done.
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
For 2nd question : yes it's possibile...u have to enable developer options of android by doing this . go to settings, about phone, tap 7 times on build number. Now go back to settings and u will see a new menu called developer...there u will find the option u need!

Hi,

please could someone look at the screenshot:

1. if the directory "d" and the link to debug and the permissions are ok

2. if the link of the directory "etc" to etc and the permissions are ok too.

I found this yesterday and restored an older CWM backup and saw the same.

Thank you.
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
its a symlink, every symlink has exactly that permission.

imagine it as a shortcut like you have it on windows.

eg etc points to /system/etc/

[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
I need an explanation cuz i cant figure it out by myself.

What's the difference between core and standard of banks gapps? have to flash both? in wich order?
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
if you flash core, you only get the "core" parts, means google services framework and market.

means if you flash core, every google features are working.

standard includes more apps, which are optional, like camera etc.
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
OK, now i get it.

Testing today's nightly... how come once signed in with my google account im not having the synchronization of apps? i mean, contacts, gmail are fine, but it doesnt start automatically reinstall all my apps!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
googles backup mechanism has had serious problems at 4.4, causing high battery drain while not working at all, theres still a lot they have to fix.

did you see the google login wizard and checked restoring there? for me it always worked to auto restore at exactly that point.

restoring after the wizard has already shown, it was always impossible for me.

rule #1, always care yourself about backing up ;)
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
Yes ofc, it's not a problem cuz i have nandroid backup , so im restoring it now, i was only testing it, dont think is stable enough for my daily use!

Btw, yes i saw the google restoring wizard , and it had always worked for me with all cm-based roms from jellybean.... but just wondering why is not working here in nameless.... so u said it's a google problem and not a nameless one? it affect also nexus devices with kitkat?
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
i didnt state its stable enough though haha :)

yes, at JELLYBEAN but this is kitkat and its bugged up for me since im on kitkat.

yes, it also did affect nexus devices.
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
really? that's a bit of a shame for google... if i would buy a nexus 5 right now and power on for first time, signing in and not restoring apps!? better keep my ob for few months more!
[LG Optimus Black] Evisceration:
they will fix it in the next release for sure ;)

though kitkat was not the best for android anyways since JBQ left.
