Netflix TV-out - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently purchased a tv-out cable for my vibrant and it works great for pretty much everything. The only bug I've found is that when TV-out is selected in the settings, Netflix won't play. This is probably the best feature of having tv-out, so it seems strange that I've not found anything about it not working. The bug only exists when I run ICS roms. Does anyone else have this issue?

I don't remember having issues watching Netflix like this. Wheny phone is fixed up I'll check again.

Crackle App

So I tried this on my tab and I only get audio. Funny thing is that it doesn't work on my DROID at all. Cool think is that the website works fine via standard browser. Watching mib over wifi right now in 480p

Btw if anyone wants the app to mess around with it let me know and ill throw it up.

droxid,
Could you upload the apk for it.
So this is the app that I got off the market and sideloaded on my tab.

My issue is that I get audio but no video. Let me know what you guys get.
On a side note....video through browser works flawlessly.
audio works but picture doesn't.
Has anyone had any luck with this?
Works fine in just the browser.
There is a new version showing up in the market for Honeycomb tablets.... but it won't allow me to download it. Says it's a "developer test".
I read an article that it's now available for the Asus Transformer. Hmmmmm. Wonder where.
Also, it's advertised as coming with the new Sony tablets.

Netflix APK

Has anyone gotten Netflix working on the S tab?
I've been trying since day one to no avail...
It doesnt work on tablets, at least not the Sony S or the Acer Iconia. (i only own those two, and it doesnt work on either one.)
Same problem here. Maybe with the root we could apply a patch. Also skype video is a problem Don't know if it is connected with some video library

It works on plenty of tablets. I just returned the thinkpad tab, worked fine. Also works on my gTab.
I have been able to install 1.4.1. It loads up fine, only issue is when video is launched.

Exectly same problem here

Same Here 1.3, 1.4 and 1.4.1 all got the same issues (error 12001)
My tablet is still on 3.1 honeycomb, I don't think upgrading system to 3.2 will help. Keeping 3.1 as long as I can just in case root comes out to fix video in netflix and Skype.

I got this tablet yesterday. I think the fix will be identical to the one on the transformer once we gain root (i.e. adding the missing lib)
I dont think its the Tab as much as it is the apps... cause Netflix didnt work, and for video chatting Tango, and Skype doesnt work but, google+, or just using video chat within gMail works fine.
Official skype works with video now - i hope netflix their example and fix video too.

[Q] YouTube App Lag?

When I use the Youtube app on my 3vo, it scrolls smoothly and all, until I begin playing a video on it. Once a video begins playing, when I try to switch tabs when holding the phone in portrait mode, the transitions suddenly become choppy and laggy, whether it be scrolling through comments, or pulling down the notification bar, the entire phone seems to lag once a Youtube video is playing, regardless of it being HD or not. Is anyone else having this issue or have a possible solution? Thanks (Stock ROM)
Maybe upgrade YouTube app.

I believe it already is the newest. 2.3.4 from the market. Do you think it could be a device issue? I've tried wiping 2 times, and the same issue is happening.
No its not device issue. What r u streaming YouTube videos 3/4g or WiFi??
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
I use WiFi and 3G mainly, but I've experienced the issue regardless of the connection type, and also whether it be in HD or SD format.

Ok are you rooted? Have you cleared cache and data on the app??
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
I am not rooted, I also cleared the data and cache as you suggested, but I have the same issue. I noticed that when I pause the video, however, it seems to respond faster.. Not as fast as no video playing, but a noticeable improvement over when the video is playing and I attempt to scroll.
I hate to be a downer but this phone does not handle a few things very well, namely the youtube app and it also is slow as hell when you get thousands of texts. I think this is a sense issue personally.
I thought Sense may be the cause to it. I'm not sure if other people are experiencing the issue though, whether it be that a custom ROM solves it or my device is just 'special'..

The problem you are experiencing is universal. Scrolling while watching a video causes lag in the youtube app.

Thank you. I thought it was just my device that did this, because there were no other threads which mentioned this, which I find strange because my old HeroC did it smoothly, and now the 3VO is struggling with it. Do you know if a custom ROM or kernel resolves this?
I have the same problem as well. When playing videos in the youtube app, I get a lot of lag.
I can actually navigate the desktop version of the youtube site with less lag than the youtube app.

I've experienced this problem on numerous ROMs. In regards to kernels, I don't even know. I doubt that a kernel will eliminate the lag, but I'm not one to say.
I am also getting this issue with both youtube and vevo app. When i play videos from my sd card with mx video player, they play flawlessly. So hopefully when ics comes out this problem is fixed.... :/

This is normal and I think it has been posted a few times. Basically it's the lack of gui hardware acceleration on Android gingerbread. If you try out an ICS rom you will see its smoother. Probably not as smooth as you like but smoother than it is on gingerbread.
Don't think its normal. YouTube works fine for me. HD and normal videos play without an issue. Upload and download works fine as well. I'm running SteelH's rom with Chads#50 kernel. Youtube has never giving me a problem in the app or VIA stock browser. So I don't think it has to do with the hard ware acceleration at all. My wife has my old hero and YouTube works fine for her as well. Also my sister and brother both have the EVO4g and youtube works fine for them. Have you guys tried a different version of the app ??? Like an older ver?? Or a newer one ??

I get this issue too, no way is it normal as this is the first phone I have used to have this strange behaviour.

Yeah its weird for me because all my movies and videos that are loaded onto my sd card work great. No lag or issues but when it comes time to YouTube or vevo and even vimeo.... It will lag or skip the video around the end or halfway but the sound keeps playing.. Very frustrating.

If you try the YouTube app on ics it works fine and no lag...
I wish I could go on ics.... But I use the camera and 4g a lot haha

Youtube app playback stuttered / jerky

Recently I found that HTC Flyer Youtube app play video not that smooth. It jerk every few seconds. Anyone have the same problem?
i'm not having this problem with youtube.. but i am with netflix someone suggested trying an older version that plays better with HC and it fixed it.. idk if it's the same thing with your youtube app but mayb check to see if it updated recently and try uninstalling the update to see if it fixes it... just a thought

after few days of jerkiness, today Youtube seems to be ok. Its weird though. My iPad2 and Flyer connect to the same wireless router but iPad play smoothly while Flyer very jerky. This happened yesterday. But today,everything seems to be working fine. I didn't see the youtube app being updated today.
Very weird...
I have had some problems with YouTube app as well. Tried WiFi & 3G. Plus I get a lot of force close errors.
