Just got pushed the new Market Movie app. Took one of the $.05 offers, launched the new Google Movie player and get a Force Close error immediately. Uninstalled the player, re-installed. No joy.
Works fine on my Bionic !
Thoughts?
Thanks
Same here, bought a movie to watch on the plane but every time I try to mark it for offline viewing I get force close. Seems ok on mt gnex though

I haven't tried renting yet but when I try to play a video from my personal collection it says video cannot be played after about 3seconds of the video, I think that is an issue with the sony video player as that is what is used to launch it. Have u guys tried installing the stock Android video app, maybe that will work?
Google movies can only be played in the 'PLAY MOVIE' google app.

So when you click play it doesn't try and launch the video in the Sony Video player? It is strange that when you go to play a video from that app that is on the internal storage that it tries to launch a different app then if it has the video playing capabilities built in.
I haven't rented a Google movie yet to test that aspect myself, I was just commenting on the app not being able to launch internally stored video properly.
Correct. Google movies play within the Play Movie player only.
good to know
Good info to have. I have yet to rent a movie, but good to know ahead of time how to play it.
Its the google player that keeps force closing

I searched for this everywhere but didn't find it. I listen to a lot of electronic music and I usually play the tracks on youtube before purchasing them on beatport or whatever. It sucks thay in the youtube app the song stops if I have to answer an sms or surf web. I think it would be a good idea of a mod or even a custom app that can play youtube videos in the backgroud..is this possible?

theres a sweet app called free music download in the market where you can search for almost any song or artist and get many results. from there you can stream or download the mp3. i use it everyday along with my unlimited skip pandora
Check out Ghosttown from the market. Plays songs from youtube without the video. Idea worked well for me but the buffering killed it for me. May work for you though.
Should be in the Themes and Apps section.

The streaming is getting better, the last couple of updates have really sped things up. It's almost there, I'd say it's probably the best bet.

Why don't you try tubemate ?
im having problems locating any video player that will play a movie i have on my tablet, its mp4, the thing is im running starburst uekmb rom and i know i was able to pkay this movie with the stock rom... I dont want to go back to stock just to play a simple video... But any and all video players in the market just refuse to play it just like the galery and built in video player, others are out of sync with the sound, and the ones that arent out of sync play te video in spurts, so the screen looks like its glitching out.
So is there a way to fix this, a video player that will work with my device or some sort of codec thing like in windows to make the built in player play almost anything?
Get diceplayer from the market.

i prefer moboplayer, but it still can't play all the videos, i use a video tool introduced by Foxreal to deal with videos that can't be supported, the result is just what i expect
Hi all, Im able to wirelessly show my photos from my phone to my Sony Bravia tv, but it wont play my MP4 videos. The funny thing is, if I put my MP4 videos to a flash drive and plug the flash drive to the tv, it will play them. Is there another app that would stream my videos to the television?
What app are you using now? There are tons of apps in the market for this, iMediaShare is one of them.

Just the default choose a photo and then select player and it would detect my Sony TV...play my photos not my videos
Hello All,
I know you can play video files in a Pop Up Play screen while doing other tasks, but can you stream Youtube video or use the Youtube app in a Pop Up Play screen?
Thanks.
I'll let someone who actually has the device already give a more definitive answer, but I'll say that it's highly unlikely... the pop up play feature (AFAIK) is part of the native video player, which youtube does not use.

No....only on videos on your phone.
No you can't but I believe there is an app on Google play store that might let you is call super video

No it doesn't just tried on my GSIII
Stick It on the market will let you play YouTube videos in a pop up player.

I'm experiencing some strange but welcomed behavior of my nexus 10's YouTube app. I'm living in Germany so theoretically I shouldn't be able to watch official music videos on YouTube. at first I tried to search the videos via Google now and open the playing request via YouTube and it worked for some songs. but now I'm able to watch ANY music videos by vevo in the YouTube app. I can just search them via the app and it starts playing. now I want to flash the latest cm10 but I really want to preserve this YouTube/ music state...any advice what I could do to transfer this to the new ROM. I tried to backup the youtube app via titanium and transfer it to my galaxys and play the videos there but I'm not able to watch them on the galaxy s due to the copyrights. so the "mess up" has to be placed elsewhere. any ideas? if we can figure this out I can share these files/or whatever is needed to you guys
best regards dadebue
EDIT: no proxy app or something like that installed...the videos load as quick as my internet provider allows it

dude well i am living in germany too at the moment. And well this is kind of a gap hole from vevo haha well if you search for the vevo app directly in the play store, you will not find it. But i did this with several jelly bean roms, and it always worked for me on any device. Just go to google search and search for "vevo android app" and it will show you the app with a little button next to it saying "free". Tap on that button and it will ask you to open the play store and guide you to the app. And i also says download there and it all works fine :highfive:
I think it has more to do with restrictions people put on your videos as opposed to your tablet.
