does anyone have idea how to make spb tv work on cm7?
works well with any other roms only on cm7 it stops streaming after one frame.
I am having the same problem.
I have spb tv on my MT4G running cm7, and it plays only prerecorded video channels, Deutsche Welle TV, or somtimes I get sound or I get video but not at the same time. Strange. Please heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp somebody! I want my SPB TV back. Thanks in advance.

I was testing the HDMI cable to my tv, no dock, and noticed the movies i recorded on the phone played great, but some other movies i copied to the phone, played ok, but had no sound. So i tried some other video players, same result, video but no sound.
Has anyone run into this, Im guesing its a codec issue...
Maybe can suggest a video player for me to try, i did google, but am still here,
Thanks fellow Xda guys.. Look forward to your replies.

I've been looking for the best way to transcode and stream video from my file server to my Nook Color. (using handbrake to encode video for local playback works great... but until they sell 5 TB sdhc cards that's not going to cut it )
VLC Stream and Convert works (for every kind of file I've thrown at it... which is no surprise, VLC can handle anything pretty much).. but I haven't been satisfied with the quality. (and I've played with the h265 settings quite a bit). Does anyone have recommended settings for this app?
Also, I have Tversity... but I can't get it to work for all my videos yet.... Has anyone successfully configured Tversity to work with their Nook Color?
Are there any other solutions for this that anyone might recommend?
Thanks
Ive gotten PS3 media server to work with the nook. Its pretty similar to Tvsertity. Install UPnPlay on your Nook and try to access your Tvsertity server. It'll forward the stream to your player of choice (Rock player, etc.)
Only issue I've noticed is with files > 1gb.
has anyone tried twonky? i use it on my epic to stream from my server to phone... it will browse shared files on network and playthem.. or vise versa it can stream from phone to network... next time i have a nook here i can try it myself, but it is a free app so might be worth a shot to see if it will install and run on nook.

Subsonic is quite good. It allows you to stream music and videos, however it requires flash to stream videos so I'm not sure how well it works on CM7. It is also not free.
VLC Convert and Stream is the only program I've found that will stream all of the file types I have on my computer. Everything else you'll have to transcode non compatible files first, which may not actually be that bad if you have plenty of storage space and/or you only have a few files that need to be transcoded.
I have my convert and stream playback on phone settings set to 480 width with highest bitrate selected (I don't have pro version, I think you can get up to 640 width with that) and playback settings set to fit to screen so that the videos expand out. I get a few artifacts here and there but the quality is pretty good considering it's over wireless. Biggest problem I had was getting the sound sync'd up, that required some playing around with the delay settings as it was pretty far off at first. Do you have the pro version? That allows higher resolution and possibly higher bitrate (but I'm unsure on the bitrate). When I watched 720p source videos, it looked pretty good.

Thanks - downloading it from the app store now. I have 2.3.3 running (CM7). I will let you know how it goes. So far nothing else I've tried has worked ;(
I love this app. It works well over home WIFI, but for the life of me I cant get it to connect outside of my home network.
What port forwading settings would I add to get this to work? Wouldnt the rest be the same since at home I use internal IP, outside of home I use external IP? Then forward external IP to the internal one previously set up? Kind of new at this, I've set up live streams before, but cant remember and troubleshoot this properly.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Edit 2: I have followed the directions for VPN and 3G methods but for some reason it wont connect.
Edit 3: Got it working, was missing a single digit in one of my forwards.
I recently tried Plex. That is an exciting app. I love the interface.
The only issue is that even though the streaming works, when I used it over my wifi the playback was laggy (even with overclock). I tried changing the settings and lowering the quality, but it still lagged.

I noticed this with Plex as well. I already use it on my Galaxy S and it plays beautifully, but the NC seems to lag no matter what.
HOWEVER, the same video played over subsonic at maximum quality (Transcoded as .flv and embedded in the browser as a flash video) plays surprisingly well.
Any more knowledgeable members know why that is? I can't seem to figure out why.
I watch 720p mkvs transcoded over 3g running cm7 on my nc with no problems using subsonic. Best option I have found. Server is on a ubuntu 10 machine.

I've been able to use Skifta with RockPlayer or Vplayer to stream from my Windows 7 box (since DLNA is built in). You need a separate video player app in CM7 currently since most codecs have been removed until they get DSP working.

Skifta worked for me first time!
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction
Qloud Media has worked well for me. It's extremely simple to set up.

For dlna streaming on my phone i use imediashare and it works perfectly so maybe give it a try on the nook color.
hi everyone. would be really grateful if someone could offer any advice.
when playing mp4s the video completely loses sync with the audio and video explorer bar starts at the beginning even though the video is still playing.
it only happens on video longer than 30 mins.
I've tried several converters including xillsoft video converter ultimate which has a specific setting for the hero.
I normally encode mp4 for iPod H264 as the file size is smaller but have also tried normal mp4, wmv etc but the issue still happens. a change in the resolution of video doesn't help either.
I've tried mobo player, zimly, rock player and good old stock but no avail.
I've tried several 2.1-2.3 Roms but that doesn't help.
It does work with Elelinux 2.1 stock but if i'm honest i really dont like sense roms.
does anyone know the optimal mp4 encoding settings for the hero?
is it possible its somehow kernal related e.g struggles to read larger file sizes?
sorry for the essay its just really bugging me lol thanks alot

Hi everyone,
Please could anyone offer any assistance to the current issue i'm having?
does anyone know the optimum mp4 settings to convert video for the hero?
Its strange that it works on elelinux sense 2.1 but not on any froyo or gingerbread roms.
thanks
sy
try qq player...it worked for me
You might want to try this out.
I am no expert, but this seems to work for me.
I use Any Video Converter.
320 x 240
frame rate of 15
Audio codec is aac for me.
And I use Meridian to view my videos although stock works most of the time.
I am using Elelinux 2.3 (7) currently but this worked well with Stock sense ROM as well..
Hope this works.

Hi,
Really enjoying my flyer but having 2 problems and wondering if it's just me?
It plays videos but every time I pause or fast forward or in any way try to change position of the movie, it.freezes on a single image and the soundtrack continues to run. It does this whatever video programme I use.
The other thing is that when I type in internet programmes, swype typing doesn't work.
If anyone can help with this, it would be greatly appreciated,
Andii
Is that a 1080p video? And what resolution is it? The flyer's codecs may be getting overwhelmed. Try downconverting the video to a lesser size.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. It behaves the same with any size/resolution of video - although video playback online eg: via youtube works fine. I'm in the UK, as yet I haven't received the firmware update.
I haven't had that problem yet, but I can see it being an issue on any tablet or smart phone for some videos
anyone tried downloading netflix or hulu plus? can you get the video to stream?
or skype, it has a front facing video camera for video chat (i dont have the SGSP yet but i am getting one soon)
Hi,
Netflix seems to run fine on it. I don't use Skype or Hulu, so can't help you there.
I do have SlingPlayer on my SGP5, working with an old/original Slingbox tuner.

I use Dish Online, streams well (most of the time). HQ can have a few "skips", but worth it. I like changing the channel from work, when I know my wife is watching a soap Great accessing all my DVR content!
Netflix and Skype working
I've used both Netflix and Skype. Skype doesn't automatically enable the video chat as it doesn't detect the Galaxy Player as a compatible device. You have to go into the Skype settings and enable video calls. Then it works fine.
hulu+ is unavailable for my SGP 4.0
netflix works great!
skype with video chat works.
tested 1/23/12 on SGP 4.0
