IPTV setup for Dreamlink Android discussion thread

Only issue I have noticed so far is the loading bar is showing.
It sits at the bottom middle of the screen and is a little inconvenient.
 
yep, stays right there and shows the loading progress

Plays the movie and all, just has it in the middle of the screen instead of hiding or being at the bottom.
Browsed some of the options and nothing moved it
 
I just started getting glitching and artifacts while playing a movie.

I exited out, hit menu on the remote, and selected external player.
Menu came up for what program to use, selected mxplayer, and allowed it to reboot.

After the reboot the progress bar is gone and haven't noticed any glitching since.

So if you get the bar or glitching, try mxplayer.
I got mine from the google store BTW

Was using the internal player option for media player
 
Funny thing is that I chose a movie at random at first and there wasn't a glitch at all.
Second time I went in I played the first movie, young ones, and got the glitching.
That;s why I changed players but glad I did since it got rid of the bar- has better video controls too :)

Seems mx is the way to go though- thanks
 
it has a whole bunch of different options when you get into the settings menu! What version of the mx player are you using? I noticed some glitching when i installed one and then found another one on the internet that was newer..

version- 1.7.35
 
I already had it loaded but went to google play and updated it without checking what I had loaded.
It's the new version 1.7.35 after the update.
I have the play shortcut on the dreamlink android so I never looked anywhere else for it.

Never bothered to try it before I did the update either.
 
I stopped playing with mine for now, getting it to work was more fun to me than watching it :roflmao:
Plan on putting it to my tv later and playing a little more tonight, alongside my mag to see if it has any stability problems.

It is nice to have xbmc/kodi and iptv on one box though, should work on a bunch of android boxes the same.
 
Seems I am getting that damn parsing error.
'Problem parsing the package.'
I get stopped when attempting to the select stb emulator
I've had this parsing error before, on the avov couple months ago. at that time I tried finding what this error meant but had no luck and it eventually fixed itself anyway.

But I wonder, does anyone know the cause of an parsing error ?
This is also the first time I see 'Problem parsing the package' included in this type of error message. That gives me more of an idea, but I still don't know what parsing is referring to.
Anybody know ?

I am gone go googling again :)

added..
found answer, well sorta. Adding that thing about the package gave me better google results :)

I don't know what parsing is but assume it means it doesn't know what to do with the file.
Get the same thing when I try to make a different receiver take a file :)
 
I been reading a similar page BIO
But your's seems more informed thnx :)

I mighta had a bad transfer. I used a 1TB HDD for the USB device.
Can't find any of my dozen USB sticks :(
 
I never read about it, that was just the first page that seemed relevant :)
I got the file from the thread and just put it on my phone.
Did you get the file linked in this post or the one from last night?
