I have a question...
I was looking at the story about "Total Recall" and there was what appeared to be an embedded video (screenshot with a "play" icon superimposed overtop).
When I clicked on the link though, rather than playing it embedded, I got a pop-up requester asking me what app I wanted to use to complete the action (gave me choices of broswers, youtube etc...)
My question is, does it play embedded for anyone else? If so, what do I do to get it to play videos embedded rather than spawning a new app to play it?
Thanks.

it wont play embedded through that app itself. a good option is to get Stickit app. its a floating & resizable media player like overskreen browser. Add by the same people. so then when you click video, just choose the stickit option and a little box will play the video that you can resize. plus you never leave that article page also. when done watching the video just X it out or terminate it.

Fantastic looking app. I agree, we need more apps that take aesthetics into account and use our tablets to their full potential!

I can't get this app to work correctly. Every time I open an article, it shows up with white background and white text making it essentially unreadable. Does anyone else have this problem?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, cleared its cache and data, restarted my TF201...

While reading app reviews someone mentioned to turn off "Force GPU Rendering" which fixed the problem I mentioned.
I'd rather not turn that off though

Well you have quite the pickle now dont' you??

Really, talk about a fantastic app! Smooth, beautiful, and actually makes use of our screen real-estate

Simple, I really like it. Wish they'd link to the content they talk about though.
It has a small issue with mHDMI-out, but the actual articles get viewed just fine:

LOL yeah well, I've turned off GPU rendering; now nVision works and I don't notice anything different about my tablet soooo I guess I didn't really need it

Awesome app to have to show off the ATP's beautiful screen.

Who loves that awesome back ground? I DO!!! Live wallpaper of that would be sick.

For those who haven't noticed the update yet, the app was recently updated so that the white text/invisible text issue that occurred when you had Force 2D GPU Rendering on has been fixed.
If you like to use this app but prefer to keep that option enabled you can now do both.

Lol, suppose I'm looking forward to another update. On this version, the video clip for the white background with black bubbles kind of force closes. Get a pop-up message about the video not being able to be played; app continues to work fine though.

I have been using the ESPN Scorecenter app and it is not optimized for tablets yet. Guess I need to start downloading and testing to see if there is something better.

"Are you watching this" is awesome. The game grid shows all games that are playing for the day and the broadcast channel. All of the sports you select to follow are shown mixed together listed in order of game time. You can also input your cable provider and only show games that you can view in addition to controlling your connected TV via wifi. (Google TV, direct TV, dish TV). Also has the usual alerts, favorite teams, news, auto-follow etc. and is optimized for tablets. I think this is what your looking for.

a similar app that i used all nfl season was "sport live stream" has an LS on the icon. at any time it gives you all the possible live sports and where to stream it live via flash.

footmob is a great app for soccer.
it allows the app to run horizontally (great since my prime is mostly docked) and shows whom scored and assisted
BETBUD is the absolute best app around if you bet on sports as well. gives you live lines for every game and you can enter picks. it then shows all your pending picks and gives you live score updates with color codes if you are winning or losing. there is a widget for this also. also keeps stats. if you gamble this app is truly amazing.

[Bug] AT&T NOTE Experiencing Screen Problem with Dark Images and Video

EDIT: Another long thread on this same issue here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510251
Is anyone else experiencing messed up deep black colors (pixelization) in images, wallpaper, etc?
I thought I saw someone else mention this problem, but I can't remember which thread.
This is happening to me with almost every image or photo that has deep blacks in it, including photos I take with the camera and view on the phone!!
EDIT: I tried to attach screenshots of the problem to this post, but the uploaded images end up looking completely normal (gorgeous) when viewed on any other system. On my phone, however, they look like total pixelated garbage.
Do I need to exchange it, or did I screw up a setting somewhere? Any ideas?
I get that with some certain images and sometimes videos too. I believe it was like that on my skyrocket and gs2 too. Super amoled screens have saturated colors and causes black to pixelate even on our HD resolution...
-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
I get that too and my skyrocket and gs2 was no different. Some pictures and certain videos. I believe Samsung super amoled screens have over saturated colors which causes the black colors to show up pixelated. Even in our HD resolution screens. Hopefully Samsung will improve this in the future.
-On another NOTE, Samsung goes 5.3"
So this is considered "normal" on Samsung's AMOLED phones? And it happens on every single device?!
I take little comfort in the fact that it's happening to everyone, and I personally consider it unacceptable for any device in 2012.
Some images and videos are totally and completely unviewable -- including every dark wallpaper I've attempted to use, and even many of the photos I've taken with the phone's camera. The photos do look fine when transferred and viewed on another device, of course, but how the hell can I tell if I just took a good picture if it literally looks like I used to MS Paint to draw it!?
How is this acceptable to anyone? What's going on here?
I would return it. Mine had no problem.

You are not the only one having issues. I am having the same problems, and I took mine back to best buy. I had them test there new units, and they had the same issues. Then I went to a local AT&T store and all of their demo units had the same problems. I dont know if its because its new release issue, but its very annoying! Also, open the android market and the grey tabs on the home screen mine have bands running through them, then also the skype app home screen you can really tell it.
Sadly, blocky artifacts for me.

i can tell you positively that video plays perfect on my Note..
I took five co-workers in the breakroom and made it pitch dark and when playing that video nobody can even tell where my screen ends and the phone begins because the black blends so well..
Not to say I never see blotches but its only on low res images or if the video just sucks.
That's how screens are.. the nexus is similar

Try the same video on you tube but using the browser. Use this link and view in desktop mode than use you tube app. Then u will see its a software issue.

Here are a few images that you can use to test this issue on your Note. First view them on your Note, and then view them on a PC to see how they're actually supposed to look. Pay special attention to the color transition areas and deep black areas. I agree that it appears software-related... something is definitely wrong with the gfx drivers.
I wonder if any of our friendly all-star devs can fix it? Do you think it justifies its own thread in the dev forum?

That video is garbage in both the stock browser and YouTube app; however, it looks great in Dolphin HD browser.
The still images I posted also look completely normal in Dolphin HD, but they look like pixelated garbage in every other app -- to include gallery, quickpic, tapatalk, etc.
So, I definitely believe it's a software-based rendering issue of some sort.
Hopefully our all-star devs can fix it, or perhaps the upcoming official ICS release will solve it...
Video looks like garbage for me in YouTube app as well, even with HQ checked. The only way to see it in full quality is to view it in Dolphin Browser HD, with the user agent set to desktop mode.
However, if I do this, another problem arises. The blacks are no longer black, but dark gray. I suspect that in desktop mode, Dolphin Browser doesn't know how to convert RGB16-235 to full range. Does anyone have any ideas? This is definitely a software issue.

With how well stick-it works for me, I didn't even hesitate to try out overskreen. True to form, this app works fantastically, looks like it's based off the ICS browser as it's fast, flash works without issue and it shares bookmarks with ICS browser+. Most importantly, you can change the user client, so it's all around versatile.
This is really looking to be a nearly perfect browser.
I like it alot! but needs to be fixed when i sign into anything it force closes. please fix.

Considering the app is is only 431k download with no download after startup, I think you would be fairly safe in the Google 15 minute return window.
My review, it is amazing! Only problem I have had is when I have 2 windows open, the 2nd window overlaps the keyboard when I try to type in a URL in the other window. If that gets fixed this is a win. For $1.49, I'm going to keep this and use it a lot!
thanks for posting this. I usually use stick it for youtube videos and it works great but this is much faster and has no lag. Wish it had a back, forword and url bar though.
You just made my day! This is so damn cool. Perfect for needing to reference something on the web while typing in another app.
The only thing that I see missing is the bookmarks only seems to show recent and all bookmarks sorted alphabetically? It needs to support the folders you use just like all the other browsers.
Already well worth $1.50 though hands down

Ok so what app do I need to get that will allow me to play you-tube in full screen portait ? A big missing feature coming from IOS

Vimeo not working in Chrome but works in native browser, seriously ?

For Chrome, click on "Boommarks" to the left of where it says "Mobile Bookmarks" and it will take you up a level where you'll see a folder of your desktop bookmarks. See attached screen grab. Love this feature, btw.
As for the weak wifi, I agree. Doesn't do as well as my iPhone 4 did. But, the iPhone 4 and 4s sure can't do what this phone can.

I was wondering the same thing. After all, if the Video is fully from side to side, the only difference would be full black over the top and bottom section rather than additional info.
the vimeo thing works in stock because it uses flash player. it will never work in chrome because it will never have flash player.

Good to know about Chrome not supporting flash - What confuses me is that Vimeo works fine on IOS devices which of course do NOT support flash. And to add to that I am not seeing many flash sites mostly news sites work on this phone. The Adobe flash app thats native to this device seems to do nothing...
As far as youtube, IOS 4 or newer renders a full screen portrait mode, that somewhat compresses the content on the sides and magnifies the image. Its basically doing a zoom function which is pretty sweet. I thought for sure there would be some Android app that could do the same. I find it silly to have this giant screen and when I play in portrait I get a 1.5X1.5 video with the rest of the screen filled with useless text.
I can easily find my mobile bookmarks in Chrome, what I dont see is the bookmarks I have been saving in favorites. How does one get to the actual saved favorites folder ? It should not be this difficult. The bookmarks in the stock browser are much easier to navigate -

[Q] Videos will only play in browser..cant stand it

Hello all. I recently got a dna, i am coming from a thunderbolt. This phone is 100 percent stock. When on pages like facebook and i click on a video, it will only play it really small in the browser, i get no option of what program to use to watch the video in. There is no way to make it full screen and i cant rewind or ff most the time. Whay do i need to change to make videos open in a video app by default and not in the browser. It does it on the stock browser as well as dolphin. Any help would be appreciated.

This may or may not solve your specific problem with Facebook, but lets say you wanted Youtube videos to play in the Youtube app instead of in the browser, all you have to do is go to settings>application associations (i think that's the name, it should be right under applications) and change the video player from browser to Youtube, or whichever app you would prefer videos be played in, you can do that with any of the options available in that section. Though certain apps like facebook where its a video uploaded to their service will probably still only play there.
I hope this helps!
Did you try in another browser like Chrome ??
I tried the settings in app associations, still no go. Also tried this in firefox and got the same result. Any othet suggestions
Hey just install mxplayer then set browser to mobile in browser settings. Think that should.

I have mx installed, but it still wont work. I looked in the factory browser as well as dolphin and see no setting to set to mobile.

you have to associate mx player with videos. I think it is under app associations. I had to do the same thing.
First sidyour
Tried posting a screenshot of my app associations, but i guess i am too new to post pics.

The ladt pic is how it plays my videos..quite annoying
You can also touch that box in the bottom right corner of the video to do full screen. That is the built in HTML5 player

foolishly crossing my fingers that this app associations menu gets patched out now that the legal stuff between HTC and Apple is over. The implementation is so bad
Something..i still cant get it to open videos in a player...
i don't get why the HTCLinkify stuff doesn't wokr on here like it did ICS? i guess it's coded diff in JB?
Try downloading Chrome and setting it to your default for web links. On mine when I used the stock browser everything opened in there no matter what my app associations were, but when I had Chrome set all of them worked.
It's all integrated pretty deep into the OS in Sense 4 iirc. Hoping it's removed in 5
