I didnt know this app,so i googled and find out that this app is for streaming series...

Dont forget to klick thanks
Just looked up DroidTV on the MArket. Sounds like an amazing app, but it lists Archos tablets as not appropriate. Thats a shame as it would have looked great on such a big screen ....

Yap Tv Show Stream is quite nice, you can see all series but the disadvantage is that not all movies are in there (maybe because that app is quite new)
You can find it in the market or here

Can we have forum for Sony Tablets now?
sent via rooted Xperia aRc
Please
Sony tablets are the best of all tablets now - we need development!
Sony Tablet S update to 3.2 !!!!
I have been using my Sony Tablet S for a couple of days and it's awesome. I got on it this morning and a 3.2 system upgrade notification popped up! I'm now running on 3.2!!! I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong area.
Root?
Has anyone found a way to root it?
Awesome, you must be joking!
Awesome - you are surely joking.
1) DLNA 'throw' is incompatible with most devices (including PS3, LOL)
2) The memory card only works as a 'transfer' device - you can not accessit directly from inside an app (epic fail for me and my 32Gb of music on an SD card, that will not fit in my 16Gb Tablet S, and shouldn't need to)
3) adb for android development is not supported and so I can't even test my apps on the thing
Most epic fail android tablet ever.
No I wasn't joking I was giving my opinion of the tablet from what I have used or experienced with it. Just like you gave your OPINION! I have tried the dlna with my VAIO and it does work (LOL)but not on my PS3 so can not comment on that. I have a 32gb SD card in mine and can access all my files with a file manager app, so I have been able to listen to my music and watch my movies that are on my card without a problem. The remote app is very awesome and controls my TV, surround sound and DVR's in my living roomand bedroom. It might not be the tablet for you and maybe some others but to say epic fail.. for you maybe but not everyone.

Hey there I got the Sony Tablet S in Japan over the weekend, and it's a sweet little device. I've been burned by faulty iphones in the past, so I thought I'd try something different. I went for the 32gb option, but after installing and transferring podcasts and the whole works, it's not going to be enough! What app file manager are you using? ...Really glad I didn't go for the 16gb option.
I've had no problems with the remote control app, and really like the Android Utorrent remote access app. My only beef with it would be the slow rotating response time which gives a bit of a "cheap" feel to the interface, but overall it's a cool device!

You want to be using "File manager HD" to search for files on the SD Card. I also use "mx video player Pro" which you set to search the sd card folders by default for movies etc!

I think the posts above cover this. You can not play video off the SD Card using the default Video player included with the tablet, but there are third party apps that you can downlod from the App Market that will play video from the SD card.
anyone have problem with the SD card keep getting remove? i have a kingston 16gb class 10 SDHC inserted, but after a few hours it say SD card removed... but the card is still clicked in the slot...
also which player is best for encoding rmvb videos? i tried a few, some are either lag, or is very blur...
one more question, which image viewer is best for pictures on SD card cause the "file transfer" app can only view picture one by one... cant swipe to next picture. i tried using astro file manager, i can swipe to next picture but it makes the pictures blurry.
Thanks heaps for your help, I'm off on a trip soon and wanna pack as many videos into an SD card as I can, and MX Player seems to do the trick (I got the free version for now but it's great enough). Cheers again for the tips!
Just on the video, I use Any Video Converter, and followed someone's advice to convert to a Motorola Zoom tablet. These settings work fine, but does anyone have any full details of the video specs so I can get the maximum resolution? Sorry about the questions, but the Japanese language manual I got was pretty damn short of information about the product itself...It's basically just a guide to the main features!
Does anyone know if you can hook a external hard drive up to this and play media directly from the external? I know you can with the SD Card, but wasnt sure if the USB port will allow it or not. I ask cause i have a 500gb External full of movies, tv shows and music, that i would rather carry as opposed to try and figure out what i might want to watch or listen to later, and then transfer them to a SD card.

I'm not sure about the SD issues that you are having because I haven't experienced any issues with mine. I'm using a 32gb SanDisk. The app I use for picture viewing is called Quick Pic and in the settings you can add the folder sdcard2 and it will access your pictures without transferring them.

Hey all,
I am very pedantic about everything on my tablet and was looking for a way to get the TV shows on my laptop to show up as TV shows on my tablet. I've got a mix of mkvs and m4vs. I've imported then into Media Go and sorted them all out as TV shows on there, but when I sync them to my tablet (internal or external storage), they only appear as movies. I've scoured the internet and found no answers, so I was wondering if anyone here knew a way around this. I know its a very small thing but I would appreciate it if anyone could help me.
Thanks!
Hi,
I got this TV box from Amazon and have a few questions. I wonder if anyone here can help me:
1. I can't use VUDU. It complained that the device is rooted. I am not savvy with this subject. Can someone help me to run VUDU on this device?
2. When I use a browser (chrome/firefox) to access some sites trying to watch some videos (not youtube), some videos are not accessible but I can get to them by using other devices (phones, computers). what can be wrong?
3. Is there anyway I can install input method in other language?
thanks a bunch!
