this app works surprisingly well on my touchpad. i figured i'd create a thread for it since it's no longer a free trial and there are no refunds if you decide to purchase it. i was able to skip ahead in games with minimal hesitation. i think league pass is perfect for tablets (due to the large viewing screen). twitter feeds/news was a pretty neat touch, as well as customizing it for your favorite team. i'd suggest getting the broadband option if you're going to purchase it. the mobile quality was pretty gross 90% of the time since it was designed for small screens (i'm assuming).
anyways, i'm in the process of picking up the broadband version:

I was using it during the free preview and it is amazing. Quality is great on the Touchpad as well as on my SGS2. I bought NBA League Pass on cable so I have access to broadband as well. Definitely worth the price if you're an NBA fan.
NBA code
Someon can tell me de HTML code that you when you are using NBA league pass? I think is console.jsp....

Hello guys,
Had the Prime for a month or so and I do really like it. But i've got a few questions that would improve my experience. Sorry to be a n00b.
Firstly, is there any good services where I can stream music and movies to the Prime? I don't mind within reason any subscriptions etc
Secondly, Splashtop is meant to be good for gaming over LAN. But most games i've tried don't work at all. I've tried games like Minecraft but the camera just spins around in circles. I thought i'd try C&C but with no right click it just doesn't seem possible. Can anyone recommend and games that work well over Splashtop?
Finally, are there any good 3D games for the Prime? I've got the usual ones, GTAIII, Riptide, Gunslinger etc
Thanks everyone
my two cents
as for videos, i've got netflix and love it, even got rid of my cable provider and use an appletv with netflix and save a pile of cash a month.
try slacker radio for music.
3d games... Pocket Legends or Star Legends? not the BEST for 3d but they're mmo's and fun

I've downloaded Pocket Legends, not tried it yet but heard its a lot of fun, also downloaded Soulcraft which looks good.
I'll try Slacker Radio, thank you

anytime, i'm always happy to help. i'll keep my eyes posted for anything new that falls into these categories and throw them into this thread as i see them or hear of them. best of luck w the pad... as for pocket legends, those bums got a good load of real money off of me from the game's launch until january of 2011 then i had to quit, it was killing me and my bankroll for doodads like the prime. so amazing how quickly you can spend cash when saying... ooh i can pay $2 and make my guy fart on people any time i want?
but stuff like that makes me smile, so i really dont mind until the bill comes in lol
Well, I've tried Spotify but didn't really like the overall audio quality. Depending on the kind of music you like I can heartly recommend di.fm (Digitally Imported), but the only play electronic music. Both services have paid and free options, I've used the premium for both. I've ditched Spotify, still use di.fm.
I'm not really into games, sorry... so can't really comment you on this. Both streaming and native... :-(
SO I rented Death Proof from the play store, I hooked up my Prime to my Samsung TV, made sure my input was set to just scan, since 16x9 caused overscan, hit play and all I got was sound and no movie, unplug cable movie plays fine on Prime. So I thought OK maybe it's a streaming problem, so I downloaded it instead of streaming it, same result. Came to work today and hooked my monitor up with a different cable, same result.
My Prime isnt unlocked, just rooted. I am able to play other files and play games just fine over hdmi, but no go for play rentals?
Whats up with that google/Asus?

Please search the forum, the topic has already been discussed multiple times.
Due to copyrighted reason Google doesn't allow movie rented from the tablets to be transferred to a bigger screen.
Thanks for the reply.
You try to play by the rules (purchasing a rental) and they restrict that you can't watch it on the big screen, thats crap and makes people do the download thing.
I had the same question. I guess there will be no renting from Google, they really limited themselves, who wants to watch the movie on a 10 inch screen with a 46 inch in the room?

I was reading in another thread about Google's movies policy and it should be able to go full screen. Somethings messed up in the way the rentals are being handled.

I doubt it's Google policy but would lean toward drm laws and the mpaa.

Watching on your HDTV
To watch movies rented on Google Play on your HDTV, you'll need:
an HDTV that supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)—check your tv manufacturer's website to see if your HDTV is HDCP compliant
a Micro-HDMI to HDMI cable or an MHL adapter and HDMI cable, depending on your device
Once you connect your device to your HDTV, the screen of your device should be mirrored on your HDTV (both display the same content), with the audio playing on your HDTV. If the video plays without audio on your HDTV, you may need to change the input in your HDTV's audio settings.

Google should never have agreed to MPAA terms for movie business segment. Root on android is really no different than administrator rights within windows.
Google gave up a lot to get rights for movie rights that few will use more than once. $5 to rent a movie to rent a movie that can only be viewed on a 10 inch (or smaller) screen without ability to output via HDMI? Can't imagine many, even the non tech savvy, to make the mistake of renting from Google Market more than once.
Someday the MPAA will realize that their attempts at preventing piracy only serve to promote it. Until they get a clue, Market will not be a viable source for movie rentals.

I meet those standards and I have the right cables and so forth. It looks pretty black and white to me that it should work.
I don't think root is causing the issue as people who haven't rooted can't get it to work, like someone else posted some flag is messed up somewhere.
EDIT: NM it seems rented videos are working fine on rooted Primes.

Mine is rooted and I've just rented and watched a movie directly on the Prime. However, I cannot see it on my TV.
I suppose it could be worse, they could just say F You, your rooted and no video at all. But this is the last time I rent anything from them until they get this straightened out. Has anyone tried playing it directly from the browser instead of through the play app?
Edit: Doesn't work, tried requesting desktop page, about:debug and setting browser to desktop, no dice.

I believe that it's working at all on rooted Primes is a bug in and of itself. Play movies will not play rental content on my rooted phone with a message saying as much.
Google movies do work on rooted devices, but they're not supposed to. If you look at the amazon/kindle system, they learned early on that root check is possible as a means of DRM control, but ultimately developed workarounds.
As far as the reason for the restrictions go, it's not a far cry to jump from hooking up HDMI to watch on your larger TV screen to hooking up to a projector and performing the movie in front of a crowded theater/auditorium.
Yes, it was possible to do the same thing with physical media in the past, but this is the direction digital DRM is going in. It's a very different story from the move of digital music to being DRM-free - there's no such thing as a standard mobile video player or file format to force publishers to release their grip the way there was for mp3.

Annnnnnnddddd this is the reason I will continue not to buy or rent movies.
When ps3 came out I bought about 10 blu-rays per month.
When Netflix came out I happily bought my subscription.
Well guess what.... haven't bought a blu-ray in probably about a year and a half and haven't had netflix for about 6 months.
Why? Because I feel like they treat us like criminals.
Even TV is ridiculous, few months ago I had thrown back a couple beers. I moved away from my hometown and was feeling football home sick. So I grab the remote and go to the NFL network so I could watch the packers. It says click here to order, so I click. Now it says call the 1800 number... so I sigh and call Verizon, thinking in 5 minutes ill be able to watch the game. After a long argument with the rep I hung up and illegally streamed it from an unnamed website.
Why? Well, to get the NFL network its $50 per year. No sweat I get to watch my team in high definition, good stuff.
Not really....
To get the NFL network I have to not only buy the NFL ticket, I also have to buy some premium package for another $10 per month. I told the rep that I didn't need other package and she said that was the only way to get the game.
So you know what? F?!# Verizon F?!# NFL and F?!# the movie and music industry.
I won't buy into this bulls?!# and I will continue to pirate away and only support my favorite artists.
If they spent half the money they spend on anti piracy on quality of product or ease of access then their profit margins would go way up.
Or.. lower prices and get higher volume, but I prefer higher quality.
Flame on.

Not saying it's right, wrong, or otherwise. I was just explaining the reasoning behind the unlikeliness of seeing this particular type of DRM disappear anytime soon. Video will (probably) always get ripped to a DRM-free version, but it won't usually start there as a native format.
Oh no worries. I'm nit arguing with anything anyone here said. I just read over it and instantly got frustrated. Between the experiences I've had and all this sopa crap its getting out of control. Everyone is so paranoid about piracy now a days no one remembers how to make content worth buying.
My wife and I loved the movie hangover, it was hilarious. We rented the hangover 2 the other day and watched about 25 minutes before turning it off. I mean I felt like we were watching the same movie.
Although I did find the new eminem and coldplay album to be pretty awesome. Bought both through google play.
Sorry didn't mean to derail this thread I just feel very strong about the lack of quality content compounded by the ever increasing security and stipulations.
Meanwhile steam is the only content provider that GETS IT.

Is there anywhere to find rentals that will work on HDMI out?
We all know that HDMI works on our tablets but is there anywhere to find movie rentals that our Prime can stream out to an HDMI TV? The family is leaving on a vacation and it would be nice to watch some movies on the TV in the room.
Title says it all. I don't want to train or have to do stupid stuff. I just want to pitch and hit and have decent gameplay.
Thanks
I've played Homerun Battle 3D on both the Galaxy S2 and my Prime. What I like most about this game is being able to battle others from around the world online and acquiring better gear as you get better.
Was playing the free version for awhile, but bought it when it was on sale:

And, OP, I've heard of a really popular one. Its called real life(jk). But, afaik, there aren't any good ones.

If you don't mind a baseball game that looks a little cartoony, Baseball Superstars 2011 (Paid version) is your best bet (I would say 2012, but the "freemium" nature is a bit annoying, though I would say I played an entire season and didn't need to buy anything).
The game is surprisingly deep (lots of options and strategy), and really fun to play. You can play the quick games if you want to avoid training, etc
I'm going to add my opinion on this. For a true, manager, pitching/batting team experience, baseball superstars 2011 or 2012. For an arcade, with buying uniforms, DeMarini (Vexxum, CF4/CF5, M2M, Vendetta), Voodoo etc. go for Homerun Battle 3D .... you can play users all over the world. I've played that for the last 1.5 years, recently i moved to Homerun Battle 2, which adds more batting options, characters (you can be a woman), stadiums to play at (outer space, hell, island) and different levels of attaining gold balls (you can play Duel, Survival where your health drops down and you pick which type of ball to throw to your opponent and try to get your health to the top, and Mission mode where you can play 4 other players at the same time and you have to win a certain "mission", say, hit 6 homeruns without a strike). You can also play single player in HB2 and there is a new option as well called "Burning" which will give your thumb pads a workout after playing 5 minutes (mine went numb).
Homerun Battle 3d was my favorite for years now. Both HB3D and HB2 have trial modes so you can play them before you buy
The best one is the one missing the Yankees.

Baseball Superstars 2012, it's not a sim experience, but it's fun to play and has enough depth to keep you interested
oh yes, i forgot:
9 innings: pro baseball 2011 by com2us
pitching, batting, infielding. search for com2us
Thanks all I check out Baseball Superstars 2011. Didn't like BS2012.

Do you prefer a simulation type game or one that is more simplified into a scenario type game? We are close to launching a multi-level scenario game. If you want to keep posted on release date you can follow @kidkgame on twitter

Oh I am getting this!
Ive owned every 2knba on my PC for years minus this one, soon as one of you play this take some screenshots and post them, and report back on PS3 Controller Compatibility please, if its good im gonna get this
I'm on JB, did not factory reset after upgrade. I think it is playable but with occasional lag here and there. Got a little headache after playing for 20 mins because of that. Haven't tested controller support yet though I think it will probably not support. Play the wait out game for the moment. Defense is impossible.
No lag for me on ICS Oced kernel. Yes I am trying to figure out how to play defense because is like a gym game right now.
