Google Play Movies missing! - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody,
ICS on P7510 amazes me again, this time with Google Play Movies. It came with ICS (UK update), my son made a short movie, which showed in the filelist in Play Movies. Suddenly, the Google Play Movies shortcut disappeared from my Tab, although in my app list in Google Play, it appeared as installed. But the shortcut could not be found (my son hadn't played with the P7510 since recording the movie, so having him accidentally removing the app is ruled out), neither was the movie shot by my son. I removed the app an reinstalled it. After two days, the shortcut disappeared again (after Google having updated Maps). Have you experienced something similar? Could it be, that Google Play Movies might not be licensed for my country (Romania)? What I find most intriguing is, that the movie by my son also disappeared. Remote acces on my P7510 is also ruled out, so it leaves only Google having removed the shortcut (or even the app).
Thank you

hello,
for the moment in romania are available only applications. but if more like me and you send mail to google play support to activate all Movies, Tvshows and books , probably they will give full access to the content. but we hope to be , for movies and tvshows with subtitles in our language, othervise is usleess in my opinion. I don,t want to pay for not subtitles tvshows and movies. IT IS NOT FAIR

probably google play movie not available in your country..

[Q] archos gen 8 video error

idk if anyone else has put the new market on their tablet but i did and was trying to get the videos app to play on it but its throwing an error and wont load i was wondering if anyone has found a fix for this or if it is an issue with the tablet not being google certified.Anyone have any ideas on a fix?
That has nothing to do with the Market, as it is working for "everyone" else.
What type of Video?
Where is that video?
Rebooted?
i mentioned the new market only because the video rental is a feature of the new market i knew that wasnt the cause but ive tried three different movies and im using the videos app in the market i was thinking it just doesnt support archos but i wasnt sure do you know of any other ways to play videos rented from the market on the tablet other than the videos app? also i tried rebooting and its actually occurred on two different 101s cuse i just got my replacement today
Where did you state that you are talking about the new google video rental?
As this is ( if it would work ) only available in the us, i can't helop you there.
That's what I meant by the videos app I was referring to theories rental service but the videos app is the player used to play the rented videos from the market
Could you please try to talk in a way that someone outside your head could get what you are talking about?
What is your problem?
Is that Google Videoplayer not working or is the "normal" Videoplayer not able to play the google encrypted and drm'ed videos?

New Google Play Movie Force Close

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

Rydeen DV638A & Google Play Music

So I just bought and installed a Rydeen DV638A in my car. It's an in-dash receiver running pure Android, specifically Froyo.
Been using it for a few days and I absolutely love it. Would recommend it to anyone. It's got a Cortex A7 processor, is very quick and responsive, and it boots up in just a few seconds. It also comes pre-loaded with the Google Play store and has access to most Froyo compatible apps.
I've got virtually all my Google Apps installed. Drive, Movies & TV, Keep, etc. all of these work flawlessly. What is annoying me is this. I have Google Play Music installed, but when I click on it, it launches the stock music app. No matter what I try I can't get it to launch Google Play Music instead of the stock Froyo music player.
Since I have all my music on Google Play, I'd like to fix this, but I really don't want to attempt to root the unit... anyone know what I could do to solve it?
Okay, so I played with it more and here's what's happening now. I noticed that I had 10 authorized devices on my Google Play Music account, so I removed some, and that helped. Now, if I press Google Music, it actually opens Google Music - 50% of the time. The other 50% of the time it still opens the stock Froyo app, but if I exit that app and try again, it works. Weird.
Thinking about setting something up with Tasker. Maybe make it so that any time the stock music player launches, it auto launches Google Music. Any ideas?

Android use for media only?

I want to use an older android device for use with my chrome cast only. I have a lot of purchased movies and music through the play store that I would like my while family to have access to. But I don't want them to access my gmail or be able to install apps.
How can I accomplish this...?
Thanks in advance.
Grab an old android with minimal of 512mb of ram and at least OK developer support and root it, then remove anything Google-like other than what you need.
Also I would recommend one with an SD card to support all those movies.
Maybe the nexus one?
I have a gs3. The goal is to keep play movies and music but disable the ability to install apps and block access to any other Google services.
I'm pretty sure play movies and music need the play store which is an issue.
I just ran a test, used titanium backup to freeze play store than tried to listen to my music (cloud) from play music, worked great. Then I tried play movies and I kept getting connection error. I defrosted play store then went back to movies and it worked, then froze play store again it kept working.
So it looks like you need play store running when you first connect and play music and movies, but once you are connected you can remove play store for good.
So your s3 should work just fine
Thanks, guess a just have to try and see what happens. Was hoping someone ashtray had a tried solution.
Thanks again

[Q] Google play disabled all of my music

I just started using google play and purchasing music through them. For a few days, everything was fine but then some artists started dissapearing. Eventually all my old music was completely gone. All the files are still there on my phone, but can only be sampled through my file viewer. I'm assuming that Google play just disabled them all for piracy reasons, but thats the thing. I purchased more than half of it on iTunes growing up.
Does anyone know of a solution to this problem, or maybe a way that I can edit the music so that google doesn't pick it up as 'Pirated'?
