[Nexus Player Android Development] ElfinJNoty:
I was successful in installing the AICP 2/27 nightly for fugu using the gapps package from PureNexus ROM thread in Nexus Player Original Android Development.

The ROM had some FC's (not often) but more importantly, had freezes of the AndroidTV launcher. There have been several night lies since, including one dated 3/10(yesterday) but I am yet to flash it and test if there are any improvements to overall usability. Part of the problem is that they have a Jenkins set for automatic builds for all supported devices. And while I've seen the ROM run great on cellular devices, the AndroidTV interface and framework is much different. I'm not sure who is maintaining builds and if they are keeping up with weather or not changes/commits to the overall AICP project are playing nicely with AndroidTV. Lots of things get changed regularly to improve cell phone usage without consideration for AndroidTV. Same is true for CM, PureNexus, etc.

I am still trying to determine who to contact in regards to AICP builds for the Nexus Player and I myself am very busy with a project to revive an ancient tablet called the Dell Streak 7(Omni) as well as testing for several ROMs for the Tmo LG G4(Omni, DU, CM13)

All that said, I will flash and test the latest AICP nightly sometime in the next 24 hours. I may start a thread in Nexus Player > General for discussion of the AICP ROM for NP so that we can respectfully stop the posts here since it should not be located in this thread.

Apologies to the OP
[Nexus Player Android Development] xconwayx:
I installed this rom and everything works very well minus audio. It seems to cut out every so often? This happened on Netflix and playing a music video through VLC. The video was played both from the Nexus Player itself and an external hard drive. It seemed to play better off of the Nexus itself. I've never had this issue before. Anyone have any ideas?

Question, say I want to be able to use apps that aren't 'Android TV approved' can I still choose the leanback launcher and leanback Gapps? or do I need to choose trebuchet and full G. Apps or something else entirely?

Thank you a lot for your huge contribution to CyanogenMod for fugu!

Your gapps is missing Google Japanese Input. I don't care if I can download it through Google Play but Google have hidden it from there. I can receive the update though after installing it with ADB.

And I get suck when I choose Japanese language in a setup wizard on first boot because keyboard doesn't pop up without Japanese Input.

So would you add Google Japanese Input to your gapps in the next gapps update?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Yes I can add the Japanese and Korean back

[MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION]

Thank you so much for your support and maintaining the Nexus Player on CyanogenMod :good:

I was wondering, if it's not too much to ask, what are the apps that are in your gapps-lp-x86-20150519-signed.zip? and will it install any Nexus Player specific apps like your leanback gapps did?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
No it will install the normal gapps like you would find on a tablet. You will need at least mouse and preferably a keyboard to trashy use them.
[Nexus Player Android Development] tomalak007:
When I updated I noticed the notification bar appears sometimes, but it won't go away in certain apps like plex. Can I disable it or how do I make it go away?
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
[MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] Are you the official CM maintainer for fugu? If so If I work on incorporating ffmpeg codec in to our device, give you my changes can you submit them for review? My time is very limited but I may be able to work on this if you haven't looked at this. To me this is very important being this a living room device.

Heres what I have seen thus far in compared to other devices.

Our fugo is still using the default media_codecs.xml and media_profiles.xml

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_asus_fugu/blob/cm-12.0/media_codecs.xml

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_asus_fugu/blob/cm-12.0/media_profiles.xml

Hammerhead (I know it ARM) using ffmeg

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_hammerhead/blob/cm-12.0/media_codecs.xml

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_hammerhead/blob/cm-12.0/media_profiles.xml

Looks like MPEG2, AC-3, DTS, ect was in CM11 but removed?

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/63469/1/media_codecs.xml
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
I'm assuming no form of casting (as in receiving casts) is supported?
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Yes With the leanback gapps
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
The cast receiver works fine
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
I haven't had time to test adding the ffmpeg.XML to the build yet. But that it's all it takes https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/ab78309f13f31a2177ba1de9aa1b837e2d28cef1
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
That's awesome!

Do you know if that functionality is exportable to non NP roms?

Because it would be awesome to have an Android TV run from a PC with Android x86 on it...

Anyway, back on topic - does it natively support ADB over TCP/IP? (NP natively doesn't, that would be a huge bonus if it did).

Awesome.

Any idea if HDMI-Passthrough is enable-able through any of that, or is that a hardware limitation?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
I assume it will work fine on any x86 that flashes these gapps.

Yes, you have to go into trebuchet launcher to access the main settings app to enable network adb for now.
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Not sure about your first question but as for pass through it works in kodi because it uses it own player not androids media player. I'm hoping the ffmpeg codecs would enable this but I'm not sure maybe [MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] can elaborate
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
It does? I couldn't get it to work on Kodi on stock (I could flip the switch, but it remained PCM. I was guessing the HW doesn't support it, but you say you got it to pass-through?
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Yeah it will passthrough. I'm not in front of it now but its in the audio setting in kodi I think you have to enable the advance option the check DTS ac-3 ect. I believe thats how I did it
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
I'd appreciate confirmation on this, because I couldn't get it to work and neither could a friend. If CM enables you to use HDMI Passthrough in Kodi (while stock doens't) that's a big deal :D
[Nexus Player Android Development] VannMann:
Used the latest nightly, is the nav bar still a work in progress? Would love to be able to ditch the remote for my mouse. And still can't install apps from the play store, like nova and such.
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
It worked on stock. I'll post my settings when I get home later
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Here ya go. I'm using amber skin but go to audio output, change to advance settings level. Change your Chanel's to the number you have in your configuration. Change output config to optimized, enable pass through, enable ac3, enable dts
[Nexus Player Android Development] npjohnson:
1st part: add

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

to the last line of your build.prop

2nd part: That definitely isn't normal. Play works fine here.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I might have to try this out it looks interesting. The thing I most want really though is the ability to move Apps to external USB storage along with their data this is a huge problem with the Nexus Player because the device has only 8GB of space and a lot of games are 1GB+ ie Bard's Tale and stuff like that. Hopefully you can get the microphone working too that's handy sometimes. Anyways thanks for bringing CM to the Nexus Player and keep up the great work!

EDIT: Looks cool didn't even wipe seemed to be fine going to test it out for a while. Just used extended desktop to disable the notification bar.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Rox598:
Was hoping installing this would fix this damn playback issue i'm having but nope.

Think it's time to return this PoS device
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
For what app?

Question for you guys are the leanback launcher icons smaller because I have more apps now (since CM added some) or are they smaller also because it's now a different DPI by default?
[Nexus Player Android Development] parkerlreed:
I think it's because DPI. Normally with a lot of applications it just scrolls.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Does anyone know the regular DPI to make it be bigger again? EDIT: Put it on 280 seems about right.

EDIT2: Has anyone gotten hangouts to work and actually be able to make a video call with a USB webcam yet? been trying to if I have hangouts installed internally doesn't seem to work at all if it's installed as a normal app it seems to force close when you try to do a video call :(

EDIT3: I found that this hasn't merged yet so maybe after it merges just having Hangouts installed normal will let the video calling work. http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/96196/

EDIT3: Sorry for more questions but has anyone gotten a USB Flash Drive to mount using an MHL adapter and been able to copy apps to it? I've tried stickmount and a few other apps to try and get the system to recognize it as mounted tried two different flash drives too es explorer seems to work with it but the App Manager won't let me move apps to USB Storage :(
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
I am defaulting it back to 320 and if you install the full gapps package it will change it to 240.

And I have not yet got the OTG function working right to allow it to mount as recognized by android.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Is 320 the default for the nexus player? The highest density on the display settings is 280 maybe you can add 320 to the list some how. Also if you could get usb storage working that works be very helpful to be able to move some of these large games off ?

Also do you know what's going on with the usb webcam to do video calls in handouts does it just need that patch to merge?

Keep up the great work!
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Yes 320 is the default and I can add the value to the options. I spent all night friday trying to get the usb otg working I think it is an issue in the kernel. Have to spend more time working on that.

We definitely need a camera hal to be able to use USB webcams. Currently the cm code to detect flash is going crazy so I still have to work on the hal more before it can be merged. Soon I hope we can do video calls.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
That other lollipop rocks is suppose to be able to so video calls from usb cameras I'm not sure about usb storage but maybe he has now code to cherry pick.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
He said he would post updated code soon. I think the camera hal I have posted will work fine in AOSP it's an issue with some cm changes to frameworks that I have to work out. I don't think he has USB OTG support though.
[Nexus Player Android Development] bkjolly:
What play back issue?
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Oh OK I could imagine with the flashlight being a quick setting tile and screen gesture it's pretty integrated in the framework but at least you know what the problem is. I'm amazed you've got it working so well in such a short amount of time. I was kind of skeptical to even flash it but no bugs so far.

Do you think the remote control microphone is going to be hard to fix too or its it just getting the right drivers setup mostly?
[Nexus Player Android Development] nachunsa:
Blutoothe Speasker Sound Problem...

'cm-12.1-20150425-UNOFFICIAL-fugu.zip' is output sound to Bluetooth speakers.

Were really done.

But the sound is heard intermittent loss.

What is the problem?

TV sound comes through well.

But Bluetooth speaker breaks phenomenon occurs.

Possible modifications?

Thank you.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
I am testing a patch for that now
[Nexus Player Android Development] Rox598:
Casting to the player from showbox or installing shoebox into the player and downloading a show onto the player no matter what I do they always play in a really bad resolution and have distortion on movement. I have no idea whats wrong and no one else seems to have the same issues :( but Netflix, GP movies and YouTube all play HD content fine.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
You should try Kodi and some of the addons it has maybe that will fit your needs www.Kodi.tv http://www.tvaddons.ag
[Nexus Player Android Development] nachunsa:
Bluetooth Speaker sound fixed cm12.1 0427 rom??

Bluetooth Speaker sound fixed cm12.1 0427 rom??

Thanks.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Rox598:
Before I try it does it distort and play back in a crap res for you? I honestly think my NP is busted what else could b causing this.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I haven't tried showbox tbh since I can basically watch anything on Kodi. But if it's doing it on stock Android it could be a hardware problem but I'd say it's more then likely a networking problem. But really just try out Kodi it works really good on the Nexus Player. Join this community and the alpha to be able to install it from the play store. https://plus.google.com/communities/108183048951505359159
[Nexus Player Android Development] nachunsa:
wow bluetooth sound problem fixed.... but...

blutoothe mouse pairing or turn on SystemUI Error Problem...

fix.please....

cm12.1 0427 rom...
[Nexus Player Android Development] Rox598:
its 100% not a networking issue. using the same apps on a chromecast and it plays completely fine which makes me think its either a software or hardware issue.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
My dear sir you have my thanks, I forgot the receiver specific settings last time I tried it, and it does indeed work on stock :D

Thanks for the heads up!
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Has anyone seen that Chromecast screensaver thing since upgrading to CM12.1? So far I've left it to sit for long periods of time and haven't seen it. Is there a way to fix that?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
It works fine here with the leanback gapps
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I found my day dream was set to null and set it to 5 minutes so we'll see if it shows up after a while. EDIT: So far I've let it sit for well over 5 minutes and hasn't showed up yet I wonder what the deal with it is :(
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Mine is fine too but waking it up from a day dream the HDMI loses connection the re establishes after 30 seconds
[Nexus Player Android Development] bkjolly:
I've noticed this but it's a non issue IMHO.

---------- Post added at 03:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

I see the screen saver fine on my end what gapps package are you using.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I'm using the regular lean back. But I never wiped did you wipe?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Go to developer settings general and set to always on when plugged. I'll try to make this a default setting
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
If you didn't wipe you may have database issues like the null seeing you saw
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Yeah could be is there a way to just wipe the settings and such without wiping apps if not I'll just do a whole wipe it's not a big deal really.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
No but it will keep your kodi and other app setup in sdcard so when you reinstall it's the same just do a factory reset
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
So if I do a factory reset it won't wipe the SD storage like Android/data.?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Anything in sdcard/android/data stays for me with the cm recovery
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
OK I'll try that. If I restore my apps using the adb restore do you think they will be OK?
[Nexus Player Android Development] bkjolly:
Doesn't bother me. I prefer the time out to be honest it's a power saver.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
So I wiped but for some dumb reason it won't popup and ask if I want to allow my computer to access ADB like it should ADB over IP works fine and the little adb icon shows up on the status bar and drivers are installed and all that jazz so idk why it's not working over usb ugb.

Edit: Good news though the screen saver is working again lol.

EDIT: I found out now for the first time it's decided to connect with MTP which is never wanted to do on stock only ADB on stock this is a great feature however now I can't seem to be able to turn the dang thing off so I can use adb.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Yeah I have a change I didn't push yet to show it to enable mtp,abd
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
So after you push that fix I should be able to turn off MTP and use ADB again?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Mtp and adb can run simultaneously
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Ok cool cus right now MTP is working but for some reason ADB isn't who knows what the deal is I've had similar problems usually turning off MTP lets me authorize the device IDK why it's not popping up to ask me if I want to authorize it right now. Guess I'll try harder to get it to do adb over ip to restore my apps. EDIT: I have no idea what's going on it randomly started working so who knows.
[Nexus Player Android Development] SkOrPn:
Not just the ADT-1, but my vote would be for a better Android TV devices like the NVIDIA Shield (or even the Razer Forge for that matter). Too bad I'm not a developer, id buy the ADT-1 in a heartbeat though.

Anyway, to the OP, thanks for bringing CM to this device, that alone makes it more appealing to me already... :good: I will be watching this thread closely for a while, lol.
[Nexus Player Android Development] bmakk2055:
Otg works with stickmount for me and how do I boot into recovery?
[Nexus Player Android Development] bkjolly:
Restart the device hold the bottom button down until the Google screen goes dark. Then when the bootloader menu boots hit the bottom button once until the menu says recovery then hold the bottom button until the device boots into recovery. Or you can simply adb reboot recovery when your device is plugged up to the computer.

---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 PM ----------

Guys he would need a device in hand to do that and you can't expect him to buy every device that comes out.
[Nexus Player Android Development] bmakk2055:
Thanks I was using adb , I knew it had to be another way
[Nexus Player Android Development] SkOrPn:
No of course not, and I never once said I expect him to. I just suggested a better Android TV device. The Shield isn't even released so obviously he can't have the thing in his hands yet. Besides, It must first be rooted, then devs can start work, etc etc. I'm just showing my support for a future device that devs will probably be drooling over to get their hands on, not to mention the consumers here.

I'd love to have the NP, but without Ethernet and only 1GB ram, its not even an option. Unless by chance it has Ethernet pin outs, then maybe I can solder on my own Ethernet connection and install a permanent flash drive for storage. I guess I need to take one apart and inspect it for possible hardware mods. Anyone know of any successful hardware mods done to the NP yet?
[Nexus Player Android Development] bkjolly:
You worry to much about specs IMHO. The Device works flawlessly for what it was designed to do. Why do you need 2 gigs of Ram? Sure it would be nice but for what this device does you never see a difference. As for Ethernet that's as simple as an adapter plugged into adapter an otg hub.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Honestly with a router that supports Wi-fi 802.11ac it's basically just as fast as Ethernet for the most part the actual ISP is the bottleneck at that point. I would say if you want to do actual gaming on the device for more hardcore stuff just wait for the Nvidia Shield because that thing is going to be the best deal at $200 you get the controller and everything. As far as game streaming I've used both KinoConsole and Limelight and both work great. Limelight is the better of the two if you have an Nvidia GPU in your pc it's basically dang near flawless for game streaming. KinoConsole is a great alternative for non-nvidia gpus like I have in my laptop.

Anyways sorry for such a long unrelated post can't wait for the next nightly build to be ready!
[Nexus Player Android Development] bkjolly:
I think you summed up my point.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I'm pretty sure doing this causes the day dream to never appear though. I imagine there's a better way to fix this but probably after we get more important stuff like usb storage and the microphone on the controller working.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dude_75:
YAY for CM!

Hi there,

First of all I'm not much of a developer, so excuse me if I'm asking dumb questions :)

I'm pretty excited for the CM build for the fugu, and was reading through this thread so I won't miss anything :) I have a few questions on my mind tho...

I use the NP in Leanback mode, with the matching Gapps, but I noticed, that I can also use the "regular" Android Settings page. In that there is an option in developer settings that says Advanced Reboot. On my phone (Nexus 5) I get more reboot options like bootloader, recovery etc. But when I turn this on, I don't get any other options for rebooting, only the ususal (instant) restart. Can it somehow be done that I could restart the NP in more ways from the Leanback launcher...?

I use an OTG device that has several USB slots and also various memory card slots, and it works (almost) great. I got a 64 GB micro SD card lately and tried out in the NP but I can't get it to show up. I use ES File Explorer and when I plug in a USB stick, it shows up immediately, but the micro SD card doesn't. Did I miss something here...?

Sorry for the long post, I'm too excited that CM has finally arrived on the NP :)
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Hey dhacker29 said he's still working in getting the USB storage and USB emails l webcams. Also different formats work while others don't I forget which file systems are supported. For your other question if you enable root I know there is some sort of Android TV reboot so although one never tried it personally. Any other questions?

[MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] it would be good if you naively added support for NTFS, exFat, and ext if that's simply enough to do and just throw in with a library.
[Nexus Player Android Development] loociddreemr:
If you hold the button on the bottom of the NP while plugging it in, it will start in the boot menu. short press the button to change modes, long press to select.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dude_75:
Hey,

I know about the thing with the HW button, I just thought it would be easier if there was a "software" solution like there is on my phone :) I guess some time later it will be implemented in the fugu build :) right, [MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] ? :)

[MENTION=3045671]Link_of_Hyrule[/MENTION] : thanks fo the tip, I didn't check the format of the card...I have no other questions now, but I surely will have some later :)
