Problem playing movies from media hub. - Vibrant Themes and Apps

I just rented the blues brothers in media hub and whenever I try to play it I get an error saying "your device does not support the requested file type", what's up with that? Just fyi, I am eugene's daily driver rom.
Thanks for any help, bobofosho123

I was looking through the settings today and saw an option to activate the divx licenes. Not sure if that's related but maybe someone knows what that is for as well.

I wante to add that there is a great app in the market if u want to downloaded, it is called rockplayer. It is created with ffmpeg. If u know about that program, it is a powerful opensoure software that can play everything u put in front of it. Try it, u wont regret it.

I posted that thread lol. It doesn't work, the file format samsung uses is some sort of proprietary file format. It doesn't work in any media player.

There are thread about this on the Q&A sub section, follow the link on my sig please..
nobody is using dlna on SG3?
I'm a bit baffled about the AllShare element of the GS3. I was quite happy with the way it worked on the S2, but with the S3 I have to install something on my PC to access the files on it even though I have AllShare installed on it.
When I open the stock Gallery app, I'm able to see any pictures on my DLNA enabled PC. Maybe with the Video Player app you can do a similar thing? I'll check this when I get home from work...
I have DLNA sharing on Synology, where I can't instal any Samsung aplication.
Now I am solving it trhoug another player called BubbleUPnP, but I am still hoping, that this must be done through Samsung software...
Same here. The stock video player just keeps scanning when I access, my NAS. Every other app works fine.
...and the stock audio player is ok by you?

I can't get this to work either. My s iii shows up in windows media player and the computer shows up in nearby devices but in the phon's music player the "loading" notice keeps running forever.
I just tried using the video player and I found some videos, maybe the problem is that the 30+ gigs of music is jusslow to load. Has anyone else experienced something similar?
Edit: Iwent back after some time and the song listed! Unfortunately they were all in one alpha list, and tapping one would;'t play it. I think this is pretty much useless without organization so I'm going to try Allshare.

Allshare Play

Is it or does the new version of Allshare app blows in comparison to the old one (S2)?
I'm assuming I'd have to root and deodex my phone in order to copy the old one?

Agreed.. I want the old AllShare back! I tried pushing the apk, but it only starts then FCs. :crying:
Here's a couple of the bad things I've noticed:
The new one is not backwords compatible with the PC version of the Allshare app, therefore installing another web based app
Any video I stream from the phone has to buffer every 10 seconds, unlike the old one, same video, is silky smooth with no hicups
I can't browse by folders!!!!!!!!!! I have scroll through hundreds of videos!!!!!!!!
How would Twonky compare for DLNA streaming?

I pulled the Dlna.apk (allshare) from my sgs2 and it seems to work fine. Only problem is its hard to see some of the fonts for some reason. Still usable though and am attaching it here in case anyone wants to try. Just copy it to system apps. No force closes for me and yeah you need to be rooted. I felt the same about new allshare so I use the old version
Oh and the other issue is your media server will see your device as i9100 since its from that device

They must have made changes from Epic to SGS2 if the epic apk didn't work.
Also, I just realized the other day that you can go into More Settings -> Nearby devices -> File Sharing. You can also share that way. However, playing with it I am not able to stream MKV container videos to my TV. Whereas with the Allshare App I attached above works no problem. You can stream MKVs without issue. The only issue is that allshare is hard to see because of the white theme and the thumbnails look a little pixelated. Its works fine though
Yeah, I miss original Allshare too. I can't seem to find my Onkyo Receiver to ouput to.

[Q] MP3 Playback - Bug!??

Hey guys
i have a Problem with the Playback from some mp3's.
So i open the file with the standard player, it say's: "This type of Audiofile can't be played"...
But if i open the Audiofile over the "Root Explorer", it will be played with this player.
What is it?
Any other App from the Store make exactly the same bug...
The exactly same file's was played on ICS without any failure... but Jelly Bean??
In hopes that the new firmware (1.14.401.18) will fix the problem, i had flash the Revolution HD 4.0 Rom but this is not the case...
What can i do?
It is not acceptable! Such problems were among the old Windows Mobile 6 times...
PS: The Custom Rom is NOT the Problem. I have this Bug since i unpacked the One x+...
I have no problem with music (FLAC or MP3) at all, so it must be a problem on your side (ROM, other installations, MP3 or anything)... Not a general HOX+ problem...

According to your post I should have problems with .16 firmware, but I don't have any issues Sound quality is fine as well, bluetooth no problem and sound very well...

You must download it and where you can choose to install or abort this Update, you see the little List of change's...
The one Point with the mp3's fix was the reason for me, to risk to flash an custom rom because i have only rooted it before.
I must correct me:
The MX Player, rather a Video Player, is able to play the MP3's. All now, without issues..
But not the "Beats" player from HTC, wich is perfectly integrated... Damn it!!
Can anybody help me??
Please

i will be trying to flash it today
I have over 300 MP3 files and no problem playing them with the stock HTC player.
Many players will only work with standard bit rates and ID3 tags. If any are not using the proper standard it might fail to play.
The reason other players are working is most likely they are ignoring the bad data or will play nonstandard bit rates.

You may be right, these files have different bit rates... -> but why can i play since gingerbread all mp3's without any failure?
and now makes JB difference between the rates?

You don't need allshare app, in JB you can share with PC or TV within the gallery, music, or video stock apps, you just have to enable DLNA in settings.

Broken link for allshare.apk
Hi guys,
Can somebody help me by providing a live link to actuall Allshare version which runs on the JB for my i9070?
All link I had found are unfortunatelly broken.
Thanks in advance.
These are the APKs from stock.. Move them to system\app using root explorer and set the permissions.
Then after that, when you'll play a music or video, the option to play on devices will appear.

Nope, unfortunately it won't work in any of the CM Versions or any other ROMs based on it. It requires Samsung's Touchwiz framework to work, and is only compatible with Samsung's Gallery and Media Players. So, it'll only work on Stock ROMs or other ROMs based on Stock.
However, if you want to play your music or videos to a DLNA Enabled Television or any other device, you can install an app called iMediaShare Personal from the Play Store, it's free and totally awesome.

DLNA has nothing to do with Wi-Fi Direct. You just need to have all the DLNA Enabled devices connected to the same router. DLNA is a software enhancement and any DLNA app like iMediaShare personal can turn your device into a DLNA Enabled device, even old devices running on Gingerbread. It's funny XDA censors out a part of your name.

Your signature tells me that you are using the Maclaw's build. He has mentioned in that build's post on his website that Wi-Fi Direct is working. Is it not? Sorry I haven't tested it yet so I have no idea whether it's working or not.

On the original Gear, i could simply transfer videos into the pictures folder on the Gear, they would show up in the Gallery, and then I could play them.
Very simple.

I did take a video that I made and converted it to a 3GP format. Tried to send it to my watch using gear but gear didn't recognize the video so I emailed it to a buddy who in turn text me with the video as a attachment and you are right. it did play just fine on the Gear S.
If there was a App that could see the video files on the gear, I would assume that if it was saved in the 3gp format it would be able to play. not sure about other video formats, I could play around with it and see if it will play something other than the 3GP.

Ok I'm waiting for some feedback on my other app, so I'm gonna switch gears for a bit and explore the video aspects. I'll report back wehn I know something.
Update:
So this how far I got in a couple hours.
Can access Video Folder
Can definitely write a video app to list and play videos from the folder
can rotate video to landscape or play portrait(Haven't figured out fullscreen yet)
Play MP4 with issue, should play MKV as well.
Plays Audio
We should easily be able t browse files on the phone as well and autodownload.
I'll do some more testing of video capabilities. More info to come.
You can see a demo here
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tao8m9mkab5r69f/20141118_222440.mp4?dl=0
Now for the bad news, this type of app needs to go through the samsung app store and I'm still waiting on myb dev setup for this. As soon as I get set up I will clean this up and release it through samsung, but it may take a while
Fantastic!

That looks great! You mentioned in your post about Portrait/Landscape....... If you do develop this, please let us have the option of either.....I prefer portrait, simply because when the watch is on your wrist, the is the normal viewing angle.

The video player has been submitted to the app store. This version will be free with no restrictions. If I make a more advanced edition it will be a different app, so you can continue to enjoy the free edition.

Yeah this is my first attempt at submitting to Samsung. I have not idea how long it takes or how often they reject apps and for what reasons. We'll see.
This one is pretty simple so hopefully it won't take too many go arounds.

If they say no(I can't imagine why) I will post the code. The app has moved to the next step in their process. Still no idea how much longer it will take.
Update: It has moved one step further in the process. it is now in "Under test verification"
