[Q] Video Screenshot app - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I'm looking for an app similar to screenshots but for video for instructional videos and such that will record what I'm doing on screen. any help would be awesome

Hmm.. hope you get a good reply, it'd be interesting to try out!

I did a google search and found this app....haven't tried it though
http://www.android-markets-info.com/helpful-tools/android-screen-video-capture
I also see one in Google Market...but says it doesnt work with Tegra 3...I'd watch that cause eventually he will update it for Tegra 3
There is an app called "MyMobiler"...He just did an Android update, but the Prime needs to be rooted (and I am not). It will put the Prime screen on your computer monitor, and you can control it with your mouse....and anything you can do on the prime (including copy/paste, etc) can be done from the computer....With that, you could use your computer capture app to capture that portion of the screen. I used to use it with my Win 6.5 phone and took some videos with it. Hopefully the anroid version will work.
The website for that is:

Good luck

[Q] DICE Player issues after ICS

DICE player for Android plays videos fine, after ICS, but there is no menu button anymore. No way to turn on/off subtitles, or choose subtitle files. Also, there seems to be no way to remove the bottom status bar while playing a video. Has anyone been able to find work-arounds?
This sucks.
Send a mail to the developer so he knows what he need to work on. Hopes its a easy fix for him. Diceplayer have been the best player just because of its many and easy settings when it comes to subtitle and more.
Does anyone find a workaround or it is up to the man behind Diceplayer that needs to fix it.

There's no need to panic, keep in mind all these apps were wrote for either gingerbread/honeycomb.
ICS has just been released (this is the second device)
for apps as popular as the dice player, I'm sure they'll be writing a version (or altering the old one) to play nicely with the new OS, just gotta be patient.
Yeah I know. Everything just need some time.

The settings are only viewable if you open the DICE player app by itself (i.e., not from a file manager). As far as I can tell, those settings are not doing anything.I changed the font size, and it has no effect when I actually play a file.

Yeah, I know I can find the settings inside the application.
I talk about the menu/options key that you can access when you are playing a video. And the subtitle size can't be changed. Aside that the video playback works great as usual.
Have mail the developer and told him about the "problem".. So know we just wait.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
just a heads up
this is not specific to dice player.
about 40% of my apps no longer have menu buttons.
there is no alternative that I know of.
they just are not compatible with ICS
ICS is totally sucks. Did live up the all the hypes. I wish I never updated my to ICS. HC was working great for me. After updating to ICS, all kinds of issues...screen flickering very few minutes, some apps totally don't work anymore.....
ICS Feels more like a phone OS. HC felt more for tablets.
Now with ICS there no need for tablets specific apps because the phone app should work. This means that we won't see any apps that take advantage of tablets bigger screen. I still think it would been better if we got one OS för tablets and one for phone. Now we with tablet just will get phone apps because that's the idea with ICS that phone and tablet are the same.
Back to Diceplayer. Just received a mail from the developer and got a test version. Now we have menu button and the subtitle size can now be changed.
The status bar still shows. But that should be a easy fix. He don't have a ICS tablet so it's hard for him to test how it works. But now when he now about it I sure he can work something out.
Really hope he gets a paid version up on market soon, so he will get some $$$
We need to remember that ICS only been out for 1 month. And only runs on 2 device. Remember how long it took for HC to get good support. I am sure that if we just give the developers of apps time to fix and update there apps to support ICS it will become better.

Im confused. I just used diceplayer on ICS and it worked just as before?
Same issue for me.
I tried MoboPlayer and Rockplayer and both work, but don't have sound for some reason. However, at least Rockplayer plays in hardware mode for me now.
BSPlayer lite seems absolutely fine.

When playing a movie tap the screen and look top right, there should be a menu button there. Now white ICS that is gone. But he is working to fix it asap.
The app works as before just that the menu button is gone and that the status bar don't go black

Oooh ok now im up to speed, thanks.
I can still select audio/subs when it first starts the video, so its still very usable imho.
Just give it some time I suppose, same as with all other now borked apps.

Got a other test version from the developer of diceplayer. In this everything works like in HC. Can access menu when playing video and the Android status bar goes black as it should.
Haven't heard anything from the developer when he planning to update the app on Android Market. But sure it won't take long.

Have sent an e-mail to the author - the subtitle font size doesn't work under ICS. Font family, color works as expected though.

Watch a movie while surfing the Web!!! Stick it!!!

I came across this app by chance while bored and searching for new apps to play with and wanted to share with the community. If this has been shared before (did not come up in a search for me) my apologies.
While this app is still young and a little rough around the edges, it's still pretty awesome. It allows for a resizable and movable pop up window overlay (that's themeable!!) to play a video as you do other things like surf the web or play a game. Think Picture in Picture on your TV.
It even allows multiple instances of video under a lot of circumstances. Basic but useful multitasking all the way.
https://market.android.com/details?...sImNvbS5teWJveWZyaWVuZGlzYWdlZWsuc3RpY2tpdCJd
It's $1.50 in the android market and definitely provides something that made my iOS friends at work VERY jealous of today. I added some screenshots of it running on my TFP. Video ran very smoothly even with Fruit Ninja playing in the background or multiple tabs.
P.S. It also ran smoothly on my Epic 4G on Gingerbread though it's not as useful on a phone screen!!
Can you resize the video window?

Yes. You can manually resize by dragging the arrow on the bottom right corner or expand by pressing one of the soft buttons on the windows titlebar.
I actually was able to play 2 videos simultaneously on my Epic 4G's 480 x 800 display.
You can also position the window to any part of your desktop if it gets in the way.
Just ran across this yesterday. Pretty awesome!
They also have a nice free calculator app that floats on top too.

watching a Movie now as I type this. I think the video format would make a big difference in the quality of play back. My current movie is a MVK (bluRay) file and it's incredibly choppy. But pretty impressive just the same!
It's not using the hardware videodecoder of tegra 3. I hope they can fix it. Because this app is really awesome.

I've had great success with 720p mp4's. If this is without hardware decode then I'd love to see what happens if they do eventually add it. Overall I am very pleased with the app and hope that they continue to improve it.
works great! I wonder if this can be done streaming a video from your pc?
I converted some mkvs to mp4s and they play very smoothly on my prime.
I tried playing a .3gp video on my Xperia play and it also played very smoothly.

What did you use to convert it? Any programs i try using (forget the name, derp) either come back unplayable format or really choppy or crap quality from blueray rips.

FREE: Improve youtube lag/stutter/buffering with TubeMate

this is just a suggestion for anyone that is having the same issues as me, which is simply constant lag/buffering issues with the stock youtube app. running on what i felt was a fast enough internet connection, i would constantly have buffering issues both on HD and non-HD (a lot more consistently with HD).
after looking for weeks, i found an app called TubeMate (http://goo.gl/mzrZT)
it is currently only available via the amazon app store. it seems to have a few other features besides viewing the videos (like downloading, downloading as mp3, etc..) but all i really care for is being able to stream a video in HD quality w/out looking embarrassed.
hopefully this will help some of you that are also experiencing this issue. if you aren't, well i'm really happy for you.
Since its a free app, upload the apk.
didn't realize DLing from the amazon appstore would be a big deal. but here you go.

for the guys involved in this thread so far, are you also experiencing buffering issues with your prime and if so, let us know if TubeMate helps out. i've certainly seen a HUGE improvement with all youtube videos to a point where i only stream HD now.
The app works great and also allows you to download video or save it as an .mp3
I have used this app for years on all my devices and on my prime since I purchased it. Wouldn't use anything else great app

I use it to download videos, not stream. The UI is rather ugly ;P
Can someone clarify: Is this app a REPLACEMENT app that uses youtube (what I think it is)? Or is it an app that somehow optimizes the native youtube app (what I hope it is)?

it's another app that does not optimize the youtube app.
while i love it and still use it, i must put my disclaimer that the issue with the laggy youtube ended up being the Wifi/BT issue. beyond that, it still speeds up buffering better than the stock app.

I haven't had any real problems with streaming vids, but I might check it out regardless. Faster buffering is always nice.

Okay, just wanted to thank you for pointing out the app. It's great, love it. I' ve hit the thanks button.
the ui is ugly in this app but it works amazingly faster than stock app. plus it lets you download the videos or you can download them as mp3 to listen in music player. works great. I love the look of stock YouTube app but sick of the buffering on some vids. I have high speed wireless so no reason it should be buffering like that. this app eliminates that basically.
whenever i click to watch a video in tube mate it pops up asking me which player to use - youtube or tubemate- i choose tubemate but then the video doesnt load...anyone else had this problem>?
should be called buffer be gone!!
Gotta say +1000000 for this app, I use Crackle to watch some movies, took away all the buffering, youtube too no more buffering..... excellent app!!!

[Q] Allshare cast dongle problem

I received my official Allshare cast dongle today and although it is working I can't seem to get videos that I play to appear on BOTH screens at the same time. On various youtube reviews/demos, I have seen people playing videos with it appearing on the TV and the GS3 screen simulaneously. When I play a video it only appears on the TV and on the GS3 screen I get either a black background (e.g. youtube player) or a black background with the allshare icon logo on it and the player controls (standard video player).
What do I need to do to get the video to appear on both screens at the same time?
Cheers,
Richard.
The only way is to install another video player because if you saw a video showing doing both then they been misleading you.
Im sure its possible. The YouTube videos i have seen are not just ones recorded at the official Galaxy S3 launch demo booths but also from a fair number of unofficial user demos using their home TV's. I doubt they are all deliberately faked.
Also the videos all use the standard built in Galaxy S3 video player too.

I've got an Allshare Cast myself and it has no settings so Samsung must have fiddled it up to have both screens working because obviously it looks better in a booth with both displays running.
And I think Samsung turn the display off when watching videos because obviously you not gonna be watching both and it saves a load of power, so guess you just have to wait for someone to create a mod to get that done.
The Allshare cast does NOT mirror when playing video.
What worries me is when using the video player, it permanently leaves the Allshare logo on the screen. It is very very dim, but surely that could still result in screen burn after many hours of video watching this way!

There is some lag, yes. It doesn't make games unplayable, but it could put you at a disadvantage for multiplayer. Some games which are currently free on the Samsung app store are free and have optimisations for this system. Modern Combat 3 maintains resolution but suffers framerate drops sometimes in dual screen mode. Asphalt 7 maintains framerate but lowers resolution when the screen gets busy. The TV displays the main game, and the phone has a map of the course which is quite cool.
There is a bit of luck here, as it depends on the quality of WiFi signal in your home and interference can affect how well this system works. Certainly it has its uses though and I suspect there will be firmware improvements for it.

bugger, I wish they'd hurry up and release to TV version, I have a top of the range samsung tv which will work as the cast dongle when they get around to enabling it, i'm hoping latency will be slightly less too as its a straight hop to the TV bypassing the HDMI connections.

Thanks. Yes I since discovered that VLC let you do the mirrored playback after looking very closely at some youtube videos that demonstrated this mode.
Out of interest what other problems are you having? I haven't had time to test mine all that much yet. One thing that annoys me is that there is no on/off button so I have to unplug it to turn it off (I have it hooked up to my HDMI auto switch).
I can't get it to fit tv properly, sometimes requires two or three attempts to connect. Streaming Iplayer has audio sync problems, there is no alternative for audio out to a sound system and today it disconnected and refused to connect for ages. Had to unplug and reset with button at least 3 times. When is first got it my phone had no option for allshare and Samsung don't have any support on it. No one could tell me that I had to update through Kies on my desktop to get this option. All in all I do like it and use it loads, I'm just hoping the new official jb firmware will increase stability. Funny enough the guy I bought it of on ebay here in Turkey emailed me asking for confirmation it works as he has had loads of negative feedback from selling them. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt Samsung to create some support pages. But as usual xda dev prevails.
