[Q] does CM11 works well on Skype? - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

I am using stock rom now. I use Skype a lot to chat with my parents. I want to know whether cm11 rom perform well in video chat?
Besides, does cm11 works with flixister app to stream moive, I tried cm11 in Bn nook hd+ but flixister cannot stream motive.
I prefer a rom with everything works rather than just run fast in a few things.
Any suggestions?

You install Skype on CM, not CM on Skype!
Generally It doesn't have any problem with CM11, unless there is a specific bug with the build for your device.

[Q] Does anyone have Plex app working?

Is anyone using the Plex app? I'm currently running RandomKing's Thunderhawk 1.1 ROM and Plex videos aren't working. Apparently there are issues with some custom ROMs not working with Plex. From what I've gathered, there is essentially a permissions issue where Plex cannot create a file to write the stream to for the phone to read and play from.
I've been using PlayOn which did the job, but Plex seems to be nicer, faster, and you could skip in videos. So if anyone has this working, what ROM are you using and which version of the Plex app do you have? Any point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
I have the plex app (awesome btw) and I never had an issue with it on custom roms, and I've been flashing new ones constantly since July. I'm currently on CM7 and it works great

[Q] Anyone else having Chromecast issues from Play Music on 4.3?

Hi all,
I'm running the newest Slimbean 4.3 beta with the Slimbean 4.3 GApps installed on my VZ Gnex. I tried to Chromecast from Play Music today, and I get the error Cannot cast to '<Chromecast>' where <Chromecast> is my device's name. I can Chromecast just fine from YouTube and Netflix on my Gnex, and have no issues casting from Play Music on my Xoom running CM10.1.
I was wondering if anyone else was having this same issue. I'm fully aware that running beta software is bound to have bugs, so I'm not expecting the experience to be perfect, but was trying to determine if it's something messed up with my setup or a true bug.
Thanks,
TC
I don't think anyone else here has a Chromecast.... But I would try out maybe a 4.2 ROM, since that's what the Xoom has.

I'm having the same issue with my Nexus 4 running slimbean. Seems like this is a common problem for Motorola users (lots of topic results via search) but can't understand why it doesn't work for a Nexus device running 4.3. All other apps work no problem. Hope it isnt another root block attempt by Google...that would be tragic.

Play Movies & TV ( Playback isn't supported on this device)

Hey I just rooted my Nexus 7 and installed Paranoid Android 4 Beta3 and everything is running amazingly. The only Issue im having is Play Movies & TV wont load any of my purchases! It just says "Playback isn't supported on this device". I know alot of people will say if you are rooted then you cannot playback movies on Google play movies but I don't think this is true because my phone is rooted and has a custom rom and I can load all my movies and shows just fine?! I'm on the stock kernel as well? any way around this?
Perhaps a different rom or a gapps package?
I have even used the disable super user option in SuperSU app... It works for flixster but not Google play movies
Well I flashed a CM rom and everything seems to work fine now!? So I guess ill just stay on that for now?

You answered your own question. It might be something about PA's setup, maybe changeable or maybe not, that makes Play think your tablet isn't compatible. I run a custom 4.1 on another tablet that the Play Store thinks isn't compatible with a few games, yet I can sideload them just fine.

Ya I figured!!! And Nice!!! Ya I just unrooted / went back to stock! Dont see that much of a point to root a nexus device, unless you want all those awesome Paranoid Android features like Halo, Pie, and Hybrid mode! Which most 4.4.2 roms dont even have because they have to re-implement them all gradually over time!

Stuttery Netflix streaming

Hi there
I use the Netflix app on my HOX to stream TV and movies and find that the playback is very s-s-s-tuttery/jumpy despite being on a 30Mb WiFi connection (indeed, the same WiFi I use to stream to my XBox which works great).
Therefore, is this an issue that the HOX is just not powerful enough to stream movies smoothly? Does anyone else use Netflix on their HOX? I don't own any other handheld devices to compare to but I do find this hard to believe given it works on iPhones with lesser hardware.
For reference, I am using ARHD 33.1 on stock kernel - i.e. a pretty standard Sense 5 & 4.2.2 set up.
Thanks
James
I'm running a HOX+ and see the exact same problem, running a very solid Wi-Fi connection with 16Mb broadband. It's pretty much unusable, very frustrating in use.
Phone is completely stock Sense & 4.2.2.
i've used netflix on sense (stock), rev HD, venom as well as CM 10.2,10.3 and 11 using ART and delvik and have had no issues with play back.
OK thanks. At least it's good to know it's possible to have it working smoothly on the HOX. I will experiment with some custom kernels perhaps.
FYI, I installed Lyapota's kernel and I have just watched a whole episode of Breaking Bad stutter-free. Might just have done the trick.

[Q] Working Youtube Version

Due to CM11 bugs. Latest version of youtube is not working properly (can't play a video).
So, what is the best youtube version for CM11 user??
I considered as ogyoutube since it have a number of feature. But its rather old for our new cm11. Latest ogyoutube still unable to log in. And that is not our choice.
So is there anyother alternative? Maybe official one that still working with our devices, or anyother youtube apps replacement.
Thanks.
Hd YouTube..
5.3.32 working fine for me.
5.3.32 work good.
Even though the video seem a little pixelated.
Og youtubev6 oftenly crashing with cm11.
Does anyone have the same problem with me?
Have any suggestion to fix the crash?
