download from neon.... it installs nicely on our phone..
http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/
just posting out the link since it doesnt show up in playstore
edit: streaming issues for dome s2 users.. vlan team asked to download neon version. neon version is present in the same link..
what does this app do?
I believe its a video player
Thanks for the find, OP! The tegra 2 version works for me too.
I tried compiling VLC from source a while back but it never worked for me. For those who don't know, VLC is an open source media player; I first became a fan for my various Debian systems because it included the libraries for playing most DVDs.

this app is famous for playing any kind of video and audio file. its a great player allowing you to have the best control over the aspect ratios,subtitles etc.
all of these are in the desktop version.. the link above is an attempt by them to bring all those features to android.. this is not even half of the features i told about. check out www.videolan.org

So far it works really well for me. I like the interface and the ease of changing the aspect ratio.

Will VLC stream media from a WHS to my phone? I have it mapped as a network drive on my home PC (windows 7). Anyone know how to set this up (or link to a guide)? I can't find anything straightforward on google searches. I'd like to be able to access home content anywhere. Thanks.
The way I stream from my home server is to use bubbleUPnP. Just open the app up and find your media server. Then when you select the movie, you have to pick an external player to actually play the movie. I have been using mx player, but VLC should work too.
Thanks man. I went with Plex. It's a paid app but super easy to use and seems to work great. I can access my server files as well with no problem and it works on mobile network as well as wifi.

I was kind of upset that the US SGS3 was unable to grab the apk from the store, probably a bug of some kind, but I found a work around, make sure you are allowed to install it!

VideoLAN Client for android
Basically its a really good media player (audio/video) supports all the formats and everything.
I proudly present to you XBMC v7 Alpha tested and working on the T989.
This version is open source, free to share.
You may need to reboot after install, but I had zero issues.
Enjoy!

Update, needs some performance tweaks, is this open source? Was when i used it for crapbox,
Also adding screenshots, this things beautiful & for movies on SD, it actually downloads boxart etc. Which is a nice touch gonna look into the theming tho,
Fix the scaling a lil n itd b perfict, hitting thanks again on OP, you deserve it, didnt even know this was a WIP & FYI, not media player, media CENTER, its an AIO program, with native DVD playback, multi format software decoding, built in "gallery", etc, its powerful and on other systems, incredibly customizable, future builds are a garunteed must have app
Edit* wont let me hit thanks, common people show your respects lol
**EDIT2
Theming looks simple,
Skins are listed in "/data/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/cache/apk/assets/addons/skin.{skinname}"
Only extra skin by default is called touch, so it would be:
"/data/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/cache/apk/assets/addons/skin.touch"
With an addon.xml in root theme folder, specifying multiple variables includig source texture folder,default resolution,etc
Btw, touch default res is 1280x720, that might be the scaling issue happening, hint hint
Woohoo.. another project xD
No need to thank me, i didn't work on this I just linked the apk.

This is a BETA, not official release (ok, well, technicly), and ur complainin something isn't working correct?
TubePlus isn't on official plugins list cuz it isn't working 100%, although somebody asked for a link so it was provided.
You could try adjusting some proxies, & playin with configurations for it, or wait for official support.
Consider urself lucky though, alls I get on my amaze is a black screen & ui sounds (HTC sucks..)

Doesn't work on my phone. All i get is a black screen. it eats up 25% of my CPU and it's overclocked to 1836mhz.
So I found this going through the portal of xda and thought I would share the info and this cool new device nothing to much to do with the SGS3
Take alook at this http://jynxboxandroid.com/# also I have just installed xbmc for android on my At&T SGS3 phone and spent about an hour messing around with it so far pretty cool.. check out this site and I installed it from here http://www.xbmcandroid.com/2013/01/...iendly-release-of-xbmc-for-android-must-have/

Purchased the Jynxbox and was somewhat disappointed at first. The wifi antena is horrible, you want to use a cat 5 connection for this TRUST ME regardless what the box says your connection speed is, it is NOT!
Once you have it setup, immediately root it which you can do from the recovery screen. Careful, once your in the recovery screen, there is no way out of it till you root. So back everything up first.
Install MX Player, MX Player Codec arm6 & arm7
Launch MX PLayer, within settings select decoder: check mark S/W decoder (local, Network) Un-check S/W Audio. Now for CPU Core limit, set it to two as the Jynxbox is dual core. Color depth choose 16bit since we are using S/W decoding.
Now navigate to xbmxhub and locate the xbmc android download. Install this, and run it for the first time.
This should help you get the best 1080 resolution till someone tweaks XBMC to use hardware decoding on android.
Within Android settings, I specified the standard display screen size which for my gym screen its 720. I also set the Audio to RAW. This will help you TONS in regards to voice dropping out during playback.
Hope this helps,
John.

I purchased this unit and I absolutely love it. it was very frustrating at first to get it working just right. There is not a lot of information out there quite yet, but it is growing rapidly.
It certainly doesn't work out of the box as everyone states. Now that I finally got it all tweaked it is a great little device. I am looking forward to the future when all the developers jump on it and start tweaking it even more.
The gyro remote is very difficult to get used too, but once you do, it is quite nice. There are times it doesn't respond like it should.

The Web Browser works fine, I also have facebook and twitter set up on it and many other programs and games. They all work great.
The biggest issue I found with getting XMBC to work properly was the "playercorefactory.xml" file. Most websites I went to recommend using the MX Player Free. I was having a lot of problems using just that player. So I downloaded Archos, TPlayer and WonderShare also. I set up my playercorefactory.xml file to use TPlayer as default.
I am using the following firmware:
last_update_Hiolux_20130205
And this is the version of XMBC I am using:
xbmcapp-armeabi-v7a-debug-2013-03-05-full-neon-a4e1e953d9cbfdc0b4d6b3624cdf289dd2ebf60e
Like I said, out of the box, it was very frustrating and unfortunately their isn't much information as of yet on the internet in regards to this little box. But I have noticed just in the past couple of weeks their is more and more people jumping on it. Once you get it running it is a great media player.

Hi all,
After update to 4.3 I realize that Dice Player is crashing (vitamio is crashing too), try to install MX Player and right now still not support 4.3 yet....
Any player is running well at 4.3 on your Gnex?
Got a bunch of .flv cartoon videos that my daughter usually watch, now there's no player can play it. the stock player won't play it back.
The waiting game is all that's left. Nothing works for 4.3 as the api hasn't been implemented yet. The source pack hasn't been given to developers yet.

Hehehe, this is really one great app i found, i dont know of any of you ever used ios, but one of the best apps for apple is movie box. It does need a jailbreak, which is why the android version, which does not need root is so cool. The android version is called showbox.
It is like a free netflix, or hulu, only you dont need an account and monthly payments, hundreds, if not thousands, of tv show episodes and movies, very user friendly ui, clean and simple, there are both streaming and downloading options, in different quality and language either english or russian.
If youre interested, just download the apk from this link:

they recently added subtitles support, just install the apk and update when asked.
