Shut down this thread. It is a waste of space. All he does is put up apps that are official android tv apps or modify to show an icon on the launcher. Shut it down already!

Awesome! Cord cutters rejoice.

Any possibility you could post the Zattoo android tv app from the german play store for android tv? Thanks.

XDA: I can see you are really ramping up the number of ads that you show on your forum site. Have been a long time XDA user, but the number of ads is getting out of hand. Page load times are affected. Large foot long ads between posts. Ease up please. Your site has become a huge ad...

Was wondering if somebody would be kind enough to post the Zattoo for Android TV app.? It was just released but I can't access the proper play store.

Hide system bars will not make the screen full when casting. At least not with the apps I've casted with.

First post under "Release Candidate" in red.

In zulu99s Lollirock thread, he mentioned stock 5.1 disabling certain menus. I thought it was an app. update that did it also, but it is 5.1 itself. After this happened with some of the apps I use, I made the decision to switch to Lollirock. If the apps I enjoy come to stock ATV , I'll...

Third time's a charm--working now.

Tried pairing Red Samurai Android bluetooth gamepad with 1.6 Lollirock--won't pair: "can't communicate with GS gamepad."

Is there a way when casting on Lollirock to get it to cast in fullscreen? P.S. Lollirock 1.6 is working great--so much better performance than stock. Thank you zulu99!

I had BBC iPlayer sideloaded, but could not access the standard menus after the 5.1 update. Quite a shame. The whole reason I bought the NP was to watch UK television. It worked perfect being rooted using droidmote (to access all those now nonexistent menus). Now have to wait for official UK...

Here is my take on the Nexus Player: I've rooted, and installed Droidmote. This allows for controlling sideloaded apps. I have entered custom DNS values to allow for region restricted apps. I transfer apps using the SendAnywhere app. There is much more flexibility with this box than with...

BBC iPlayer Casting Just want to confirm that you can cast from the BBC iPlayer app to the Nexus Player. The only thing you have to do to get it working is change a few characters in the build.prop located in the system folder. After rooting, launch ES File Explore from the Nexus Player and...

Yeah, I hope they start distributing overseas soon so we can get some proper leanback optimized apps for UK television. Side loading, then using remote plus keyboard with trackpad is not what I was hoping for. In that case I can hook up my Intel NUC or Chromebox.

Christopher, I am an android enthusiast. The only reason that I ever commented anywhere about your "project" is because of its suspicious nature. You misrepresented to backers what you would provide them. You took in a lot of money as a result. I frankly just can't stand it when people get...

"Expectations gaps". This guy is priceless!

Looked up the legal definition of fraud and it seems to tick all the boxes, though intent leaves some wiggle room.

Cool. Good job. Put those commands in a sticky somewhere! Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app

Yeah, the solution for me was to factory reset. You will have to use some other input method, since you can't pair via Bluetooth. I think what happened is the Bluetooth was turned off and there is no way to turn it on in the Nexus firmware. Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Free mobile app

The not-for- profit, NGO sector is also not immune to the unethical. So much of USAID money went to foreign NGOs who learned how to game the system. I saw this corruption firsthand while with the Peace Corps in Romania. They had at least to keep receipts, have budgets and go through periodic...

E.mote, I applaud your above analysis. I agree that is a small amount to pay to learn an important lesson. That being said, 78 grand is a pretty handsome reward for bad behavior.

Link to poll site does not work.

I saw the founder of the project has a B.A. in Managerial Economics. I wonder if B.A. stands for Bull**** Artist.

They have lied to their backers, period. All the window dressing on their turd of a product can't disguise that. They want the appearance of a great product so that they can cross their fingers that a big payday will be in store. It is all smoke and mirrors. If it walks like a duck and...

I have been following this project for some time. It is quite embarassing the state of the project. 80,000 dollars was raised, and this is what is delivered? Over promised and delivered an unusable product. Maybe some large company will believe all their hype and try to buy them out for a...

For those who are interested in British television, these apps all work but require mouse input: BBC iPlayer, 4od, Demand 5, ITV, Zattoo, TVCatchup. The google cast function on iPlayer does not work. Zen Pinball, and Atari 2600 emulator work and can be loaded from google web store. K9 email...

I am in the U:S. and using dns proxy for some European content. Maybe the dns service is causing it, but on all of my other devices it works fine. Will remove dns settings to see if that fixes it.

Anyone having problems getting videos to play on Crackle? I can't get any movies to play. Any solutions besides removing the app.? Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Free mobile app

Bubble UPNP with google cast to NP, or install directly to NP.

Thank you! Tried the earlier version on my Nexus Player and it didn't work. This one does!

Any chance on getting Now TV 3.1: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.nowtv.beta&hl=en ? Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I did the same and got video error with everything I tried to play.

How were you able to activate? What device did you choose for activation?

Could someone please post STV Player app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.stv.android.player&hl=en Thank you.

Sideloaded iPlayer app and works fine if you have mouse for navigation. Demand 5, ITV player also work sideloaded with mouse input. 4od works poorly and is not worth sideloading--their apps on all platforms are buggy beyond belief. Edit: Tried 4od again and it worked for entire program...

Predecessor to Nexus Q? The homepage for the XDA Nexus Player forum lists the Nexus Player as the predecessor to the Nexus Q. Moderator please fix.

You have to put the recovery in the proper folder in the wugfresh directory. Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Miracast no longer works with play music app. Guess they disabled because of their chromecast dongle. Very naughty google! Taking cues from apple now? Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Just wanted to chime in about 4.3 and miracast with rocketfish dongle from bestbuy. After 4.3 update, it is extremely responsive. Virtually no lag from actions on phone being transmitted to TV. Has anyone else noticed the improvement in miracast? Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda...

Not sure. Works for me on stock. Do you have Play Music installed? This is the default app. used to play these files. Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

OTA Rootkeeper from the market. Believe it allows you to temporarily unroot. Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

Edit: Spoke too soon. EverVoice is unreliable also. Decided to just ditch google voice and add prepaid minutes to tmobile 30 dollar prepaid unlimited plan.

I agree. Tried all voip apps from market: groove, talkatone, spare phone, vonage, Skype. Terrible results. I did find one that is working great though (knock on wood): EverVoice. Tried it over the last few days and haven't had any problems on wifi and T-Mobile 4g. Sent from my Nexus 7 using...

I just got the Rocket fish Miracast dongle from best buy. Works flawlessly. Streaming Netflix, HBO, CNN, etc. For gaming not useful, but for a media center experience, is perfect. Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
