FYI there was an update to iplyaer last night, in the "whats new" is android 4.3 support so you should be able to get it through play store.
Most inpoprtantly they also say downloads are supported now

I would imagine he isn't in the UK so he can't download it.
Ahh yeah that could be it. Nevertheless it was unavailable to UK users until BBC made 4.3 support official (although my apk from titanium backup on my phone worked fine, just couldn't download from play store).

Don't ever recall seeing that problem.
And, to be clear, the apk above is the latest version with the download feature.
will this work in the U.S.??
I think it'll be IP-locked to only work in the UK. I'm not paying £130 a year for the BBC so people in the US can watch Doctor Who.
Just installing the apk doesn't make it work in the US. You'd need to do some work around I'd suspect with your IP etc....

If you subscribe to a VPN service you'll effectively have a UK IP address. I've done this on a PC from New Zealand to the UK and iPlayer works fine. As an aside to naysayers, I pay my UK license fee but feel the BBC should allow my access from anywhere.
PureVPN has an app that allows subscribers a fast setup on Android and is recommended.

Yep. Install the BBC media player and the iPlayer APK (I installed the media player after when I got a message in the iPlayer).
You will need a VPN as well to reassign you IP to the UK. I use Private Internet Access which I got on a Black Friday deal for $35 a year. It also lets me watch US/UK Netflix shows when you're in the other location. Because the traffic is encrypted you can also safely browse untrusted internet connections like airports and cafes. Well worth the money IMO.

You're right
While trying to install it from the website version of the market to my phone, it says "This item is not available for your carrier"
So, an APK would be nice ^^
Edit : thx FlanFlinger
Edit again : installed, but in the app when looking for a video : "BBC player is only available within the United Kingdom" :|
Needs the ability for streaming over 3G but it's about time they did, May keep myplayer (older version) for the time being till it's updated more. But the UI is alot cleaner and nicer to use.

That's exactly what I was thinking, I'm sure it needs flash to run
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
D'oh. You're both right! I was thinking the app didn't need it but the mobile version of the iPlayer did. The app does indeed need flash.
Ok, on to Adobe to hurry up!
EDIT: Though thinking about it some more, they will need to do a Flash-free version anyway. iOS has an iPlayer. So we still need to give them a friendly nudge not to wait on the final big Flash release.
Had a reply back from Auntie Beeb, she says that Adobe need to authorise the device for Flash then the app will work. So as we thought, flash problem.
Getting flash will release a lot of apps, I am guessing.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
BTW... this is exactly what they said....
Hello,
Thanks for your feedback.
Until Adobe support Flash on ICS, we can't update the apps to work on
these device as our playback relies on Flash. Even if we enabled the
apps for ICS, a user would need Flash to make them work and Adobe blocks
Flash on the market for these devices.
Regards,
BBC Mobile
Just check my mail. I got exactly the same response. Word for word. I think the Flash is used for DRM stuff which may, may, be why Android gets live streaming content and iOS doesn't.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Since flash is being abandon (Apple, and now android), BBC must have got something else in the pipe line - perhaps html5?
Does anyone have an iplayer apk that we can try, now that Flash is running on ICS?
As you can now get iplayer for the iphone as well which of course does not use flash then hopefully we will get a version which will use other codecs so that flash is no longer needed to use the app.

Thanks for contacting the BBC iPlayer Support Team.
I understand you're enquiring about when the BBC iPlayer App will be available for Android Galaxy Nexus mobile phone device.
The BBC want to bring BBC iPlayer to as many audiences as possible, across a range of devices.
However, we don't have any information about this at this time, I would advise you to get in contact with the manufacturers directly.
I hope this helps and thanks again for taking the time to contact us.

Hello,
If somebody is kind enough, please post the apk for Crunchyroll and Viki for Google TV or any apps that on the Google TV.
Please don't point me to:
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
It does not work since evozi emulated T-Mobile devices to download apk. The Chrome extension does not work either since I don't have a Google TV devices to download from Google Play Store. So, if anybody has Google TV apks or figure out how to download all the apks for Google TV. Once I have all those apks, I will zip them and post it to my dropbox and share it with everyone if possible. Please let me know.
Thank you
EDIT: Link for apk to Crunchyroll, Viki, and Drama Fever from arunningpir8 below

I test all of them out. Viki and Drama Fever works great. Crunchyroll will give you a sideway screen. I recommend you use the normal Crunchyroll app, not the Google TV one.

dramafever gtv request
Can someone re-post the most updated version of the dramafevertv apk?
Viki works fine, and so does crunchy roll from the previous posts.
The dramafevertv apk posted from before stopped working about a month ago(November 2014) with the error "can't play this video" for all videos.
Much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Another android lover, who is missing out on some drama time.
Is there a newer version of the Google TV DramaFever app out there than 01.01.09 from about July 2014? I am getting that "can't play video" message on one of my Android sticks but I think it still works on my Revue and Amazon Fire Stick.

By the way, another app you can sideload is Dramania. You can get it from mobi24.net.
Also in the limited Amazon app store on the firestick, there is an app called MBC online that you can install directly.

Just tested on my AFS and the version of DramaFever app I have works. I am pretty sure it still works on the Logitech Revue as well. I also tested it on my old Samsung Fascinate running a 4.22 rom at it plays video.
I did notice that it stopped working on my Favi Smart Stick(running Android 4.04) starting in November. But since it works on some platforms, It doesn't sound like a server problem or change or an encoding issue.
The only thing I can think of is that the DramaFever app is having a problem all of a sudden calling the internal Google movie player app. I tried clearing data and defaults as well.
Sent from a Freedompop HTC Evo 4G
Thx
I have it side-loaded it on an Android box, it worked great until recently and I hoped there was a newer version out since I e-mailed dramafever with this error "can't play this video" and all they said was "update the apk to the latest version from the playstore". I know they haven't updated it since Sept.10/2013 version "01.00.09" on Gplay.
I guess I will have to wait until the next update whenever that is for a fix since its more of a server-side limitation for now than my client since it loads the pictures and I can login to my account no problem on my box which is weird.
I did try to re-install the apk and logging out of my account to test but to no avail. I also tried clearing the cache and clearing the data in the settings as well but that didn't fix anything either.
Any suggestions appreciated. I'm running Android 4.2.2 on my box.
Regards,
Drama Lover.

Are you having issues running it on a generic android box like me? or on an Amazon Fire TV device?
for some reason, it works on my Amazon Firestick(and other devices) but not on my generic Android stick(which I am trying to figure out as well). Like you, it was working well up to around November 2014.
I am running the same GoogleTV app version 01.00.09 on all devices which I backed up and restored from my Logitech Revue(I know they occasionally change their servers which could break the app and force you to upgrade). I don;t think it;s the app since it works on other devices on the same network. I wonder if an update to a Google service broke it on this device. Maybe something related to the internal movie player app.

I'm having issues on a generic android box like you. I don't have a stick so I can't test.
I'm sure I haven't updated anything on the box since November to android since I don't have gplay on it.
I didn't backup or restore, I directly side-loaded using the apk from a usb stick using an otg cable.
It probably isn't the app, its their servers not allowing access (maybe not allowing lower version android devices? but that shouldn't be it, what version are you running on your non-working android device?)
I don't even have google services on the android device haha, but it worked fine before it broke.
I'm stuck using Viki now which is not half bad, it just doesn't remember which episode I left off like with dramafevertv which is a shame.
Cheers
The version on my favi smartstick is 4.04. Yeah my first idea was they changed servers on the back end. But it still works on the Revue and my AFS. The Revue is running old ICS version 3.2.
The phone tablet version of Viki saves the location. But it has commercials. The Google TV version is better on the TV.

Hey Guys,
I am an active member of kodinerds.net (German Kodi community) and the users Sandmann and dimbo developed a Video Wrapper to launch a stream with the official Amazon Instant Video App from within kodi.
So basically a Wrapper app is started to launch the Amazon Instant Video app and parse the url of the stream to it.
Updated Wrapper with FireTV2 Support
And It works great

When you choose a movie or TV episode from the amazon instant plugin of kodi it will open the amazon instant android app on your device to play back that episode.
The important point is that you are able to to it from within kodi so no need to close kodi open amazon instant search for a movie an play it

Yes. I considered that immediately (although in my case I keep only a prepaid that currently has $20 bucks.) Too easy to order stuff and got tired of reporting accidental purchases to amazon.
Use at you're own discretion I guess but my gut tells me the password AND email are encrypted once entered. Under that in settings theres an option to "store credentials" and it explicitly says it's unsecure. The way I understand it is this is just a more sophisticated shortcut to prime. Probably worth investigating if you have a CC attached.

But you can open up his amazon test addon and find it out for yourself. Kodi Addons are written in python and therefor no need to decompile it.

Hi guys -
I am switching back and forth between my old Nexus TV and Fire TV because ZDF or ARD apps aren't available in the Amazon US region.
The stuff that comes up when googling is fake, not for Amazon devices and requires Google Play services.
If anyone could make the APKs available I'd be most grateful.
Thanks!
Might be pointless. I could imagine there is a regio block...just my two cents..
Try a vpn that simulates Germany as your location.. It's worth a try..

I am switching back and forth between my old Nexus TV and Fire TV because ZDF or ARD apps aren't available in the Amazon US region.
The stuff that comes up when googling is fake, not for Amazon devices and requires Google Play services.
If anyone could make the APKs available I'd be most grateful.
Thanks!

Wow, You're the best rainman!
So ZDF (most important...) seems to work just fine.
ARD aborts with an error "You don't own this app", which kind of sucks, but oh well... I guess I'm going to watch more Heute than Tagesschau
Region-lock - The apps and programming is available in the Google App store and runs just fine on the Nexus Player (or in web browsers). It looks all good besides some Amazon nonsense enforcing ownership of the free ARD app. Does anyone know an easy hack-around? No big deal if not...
Cheers!
Perhaps you could simply buy this app via German-VPN-Server, e.g. Frankfurt ?

Yeah, already tried VPN. It depends on where the amazon account is registered and all hell broke lose when I switched to D.
Anyway, just found a solution.... Amazon seem to have released the Silk browser for Fire TV and I am now simply using the web site. Works great.

Then you should definitely avoid having to move to Germany at some point!
