First of all, thanks for this great app!
I have been looking for a decent player for a while, but this is by far the nicest one. Especially the fact that it is integrated in Sense and you can easily add channels by editing the xml file is great.
It took me quite some time however to get it to work. I ran into some problems :
- ManilaTV tab was not showing after installing Manila TV PLayer 2.5 WVGA
- No way to move ManilaTV tab to another place in slider
- Putting together a decent ManilaTV.xml file with my local (dutch) channels, without dead links & icons etc.
All the answers to these problems were in this thread (remove ManilaFull.xml, editing registry etc.). I decided to create a cab file in case i will have to install Manila TV PLayer 2.5 WVGA again in the future (e.g. after a hard-reset, by then i would probably have forgotten what settings to edit etc.)
I tried it after a clean hard-reset, as well as with cookie's home tab installed and it works perfectly. So i figured i might as well upload it here, for dutch HD2 users who are struggling to get things going or just for saving time.
I have only one device to test on, and it is with stock rom so i don't know if there are issues on other roms. I have rom 1.66 and manila version 2.5.192.
What the cab does is add registry settings for the manilatv tab to appear in settings, replaces the manilafull.xml, and adds manilatv.xml + icons. Selected channels will open in windows media player.
Although i read you had to edit some manila files (e.g. 26948339_manila) i did not have to do this. So no manila files are changed.
Reboot after installation, you have to do this manually since the cheap-ass (freeware) cab creator i used did not have an option to force reboot.
I also uploaded "uitzending_gemist.cab". I stumbled upon this while searching for decent streams. It is available on the
www.uitzendinggemist.nl website but not easy to find. It is a small browser with integrated video player to watch programs from the uitzending gemist site, like nova, journaal, netwerk etc. It works good but i can't get it into landscape mode, even with gyrator.. But dutch users looking for video streams will appreciate it.
