Hello uzzy, I work for Veveo Inc. who provide the vTap service. I am sorry you have encountered this problem. Could you tell me which device you are using, and the version of the vTap client you have installed? Could you also tell me which network you are using to try to connect to the vTap service?

Hi there, sorry for the late reply
- I'm using a HTC P3300 (Artemis)
- I've tried the version Touch Screen version cab file from your site - http://www.vtap.com/wince_pc_cab_download.html
- I try connecting via wifi (at home)
When i open the program, the text at the bottom of the program just says "Connecting..." and stays like that. This is all that happens - when i try to type anything into the text box that says "Type here", nothing happens.
Hope this information helps, Uzzy

New version of vTap client available
For details, please refer to this link:

Do you have Flash 7 and Flash Lite 2 installed?

No, I looked at the forums and they think you can't play video on mini. Thanks, I'll have a go.

[Q] MKV Container support

Can some one give their phone a run through with some MKVs downloaded. I want to see if there is native support for the MKV Container with some common codec for internet downloaded files (Particulary interested in anime's)

.mkv isn't a codec, it's a container.

Im pretty sure it wouldnt come with native mkv support. I dont know off hand any handsets that do. I cant find out until I get my handset hopefully tomorrow but if it doesnt then its easy enough to get round it.

You can get MKV compatible players from the market anyway so it's not really an issue.

Those phones support playback of some .mkv files because the respective manufacturers have included support via their modifications to Android. The Galaxy Nexus is a stock Android device, and as such, will likely only have limited support for video and music files. If anyone wants additional functionality that stock Android doesn't offer, that is what apps on the market / ROMs are for

Just posted that on another board:
mkv container: yes, as long as you use the google acquired vp8 codec. So thats most likely a "no" for downloaded mkvs since most of them will be h.264.

so a simple remux to ts (a few seconds to do) would be OK but most would need audio transcoding too (creating sync issues)
can anyone recommend a decent, unrestricted, free video player for mkv with h.264 and will do aac, mp3 and ac3 audio?

Strange that they would limit container support based on the contents of the container. Makes no sense to me. We'll have to see I guess.

I know on my incredible (old I know) it cant do anything over 720p in software decode mode and that is pushing it.
I dont know if the dual cores can do better. It would be good to know that its no longer an issue.

Well at least it has more support than the iDevices

The IVA 3 multimedia accelerator integrated into the OMAP 4460 is capable of decoding 1080p30 video, providing an application is available to take advantage of this you should be able to play most HD content.

As long as we're still on stock firmware our warranty will save us. And no, the worst thing we can get doing this kind of burn-in test is only reboot.

Would be nice if the phone supported more than one display via special MHL cable, 2-4 displays, like desktop cards. Games would have to be updated to support that as well... play movie on one display for someone to watch it while you use the phone to do some work (for example PC remote desktop on another display) or play at the same time.

We have seen camera mods increasing bitrates, so there is hope. Especially with all that raw cpu power to handle it.

I can't find a good music player for HOX

I don't think I am being picky but for some reason developers are more interested in features I consider useless, and don't seem to care aboue the features I'm looking for:
-doesn't use Android's cached album art thumbnails. they suck, they look bad and blurry. I want full rez, not downloaded either, I have my own. as far as I know, Neutron Player is the only one that does this. If you can't tell, delete the cached thumbnails and try again.
-presentable appearence, players like Power AMP, Lithium, Neutron. they would've been cool back in 2006, but it's 2012 and they look super lame.
-fast, responsive controls. You wouldn't believe how they would release apps that don't have proper controls. This one called DeadBeef for example, if you try to scroll fast in the song list, it counts as a side swipe and takes you to another screen, no matter how straight your swipe is. And Neutron Player, its swipe and kenetic scrolling algorithms suck they're inconsistent with Android and it only works whenever it feels like it.
-power efficient. Again, you just wouldn't believe it. this app called SimplePlay, it really is a pretty simple app, except it's a power hog in the background, heats up my phone in my pocket.
So I basically tried every single music player, almost 50 of them. none of them satisfied all 4 of these not very picky requirements. I don't understand! why is this so hard? How come the iOS music player just works like that? why can't we even get a decent music player?

I havent seen a player wit all 4 but cubed player has nice tiled feature for thumbnails u can give ashot

Have you tested "MortPlayer Music" or "Winamp" too?
I'm using spotify premium so i havent much experience with android mp3-players ^^.
Sent from my HTC One X / Desire HD using xda premium

cubed player won't even start without android media library.
MortPlayer won't show any album art for FLAC files, and it's too small anyway, you can't see the full resolution even if it did show them.
Winamp looks like crap, and the album art windows is too small as well.
Spotify requires you to login, I have no interest in internet streaming.

I like n7 player its not perfect but it ticks all the boxes, it's smooth low usage responsive looks ok and uses my own images and can download others for you and can manually connect to servers to download album art of your choosing
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

I'm using PlayerPro and I'm pretty happy with it.
Give it a try although if you have tried 50 already, you most probably came across this one as well.
I cannot say if it meets your requirements:
- full resolution covers? You want to be able to zoom in?
- power consumption is ok, haven't noticed any abnormal battery drain,
- ui is ok, functional and clean,

Youtube in 1080p?

Can you guys recommend some way(the best way) to watch 1080p on the nexus.
No use in wasting the screen on the stupid native app, which nevermind not allowing FHD, simply has HORRIBLE upscaling.
I've tried some apps which mostly fail catastrophically for one reason or another.
Examples:
Not respecting forced orientation(a lot of the time I use the tablet laying down with my head in "landscape" mode so to speak).
Horrible UI navigation.
Or simply not being able to open/paste YT video links.

Youtube blocked downloading 1080p clips, i guess this also has the effect, that 1080p playback no longer works in other players.

Never heard of this before, good tip!

Thanks for this app :good:

The viral floating whatchamacallit actually has potential.
It does say that it supports 1080p so this has to be a bug.
So let's see what the feedback from the dev is.

Looks like the dev removed mention of 1080p from the app description. Shame, because it looks like a good app. Does anyone know of any 1080p solutions for us non-rooted people who can't use the modified YouTube apk?

RTMPDump?

It looks like they took the 1080p out of the paid version. Also, note the more recent reviews of people complaining they can't get 1080p.
