Watching movies on rooted nexus

Is there anyway to bypass the bar on watching movies on a rooted device? I know you can watch on the market site but I find it slow and unresponsive at times! Anyway to be able to play through the app?
tapped on my nex.
You can download and try Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper from the market place, it removes root temporarily. That should help you use the play movies app.

Play lots of music offline

Hi guys! I'm trying to turn my nexus 7 into a sweet music player/gps for my car. I have the gps figured out, but I'm still working on the music. I have a 32 gb flash drive and an otg cable. It is not rooted and I don't want to root it. I have tried the Nexus Media Importer, but the music player isn't that great. So my question is, does anybody know an app or a way that will play the music on my flash drive effectively? Or a way for google music or another player to recognize my drive so it could play the songs on it? Thanks!!
Id suggest uploading it all to Google music then making the songs you like the most offline.

Yeah, I have NMI, just the music player isn't really that intuitive, and hard to work. I'm trying to find an alternative to it, but if not, I'll end up using NMI. Basically I want to use my otg and USB with a music player already out there.

I went to WiFi settings and "forgot" my WiFi connection, then reconnected as if for the first time. YouTube app works fine now.

Google Play Movies/TV - Not downloading in HD?

Is anyone else having issues with their Nexus 7 (2013) not downloading videos in HD from the Google Play store? I know we all got "La Luna" for free, but mine is only grabbing the file in SD. I do see an HD icon when I look at its store page, but my Nexus 7 is only grabbing the 21MB SD file.
Thanks for any help.

Having the same issue . I rented the purge in HD but it plays back in SD def . when I go and download the movie it only 250mb . I just rented the conjuring and its doing the same thing . I chromecasted the movies and its in HD on the TV but SD on the tablet.
HD works and downloads fine with stock unrooted. General rule of thumb with internet video streaming is the device that's receiving the HD content has to be encrypted like with HDCP and unrooted otherwise it's stuck with SD.
I haven't received my Nexus 7 2013 yet, but HD movies play fine on my Nexus 4 running ParanoidAndroid and my stock rooted Nexus 7 2012. I don't think it's related to being rooted. I haven't tried downloading the files for offline playback, but I'll give that a try later when I'm back on WiFi.
My rooted s4 plays and downloads in HD . It just started doing this .

Well, I tested my rooted Nexus 7 2012 and it works fine. I'm getting my 2013 today so I should be able to let you know if I run into the same issue then. For everyone having the issue, are you stock rooted? Or running a custom ROM? Or what?
