But the moment i let go of the button it will jump back the beginning of the video and show 00:00. Essentially it will look like it will stutter and just go back to the beginning of the show.

If i hold down stepforward it will jump to the point but not to where i expect. So if i hold down stepforward until it says 9:00, when i let go it will jump to around the 8minute mark.

If i press the center select button. No matter where in the video i am. It will always say im at position 0

Anyone have any ideas? I thought it was my file, but it happens consistently. Also SPMC does not have the same issue on the same files

i was having a similar issue and disabling mediacodec and enabling libstagefright in the hardware accel settings fixed it.

It's my first try doing this and followed instructions that were verified with Ouya, but can't get it to work. I thought maybe you can't run it over NAS... But after changing the paths to local it still didn't work. Wouldnt launch the emulator from within RCB.

Any reason why this wouldn't work on Firetv? Can't find any documentation anywhere...

I think a lot of us would like an update, but there's probably no reason to trouble the dev who submitted the app since he said he would post something as soon as there was news. If you look at the Amazon app store every week, a few things stand out: 1) they aren't approving a lot of new apps in any given week; 2) the new apps they are approving tend to be games (probably because that's the segment they want to promote); and 3) most of the non-gaming apps are pretty lame.

While I think the FTV is pretty awesome, I don't see Amazon letting any kind of launcher app into their store or on the home page. It may be technically permissible, but it's not consistent with their strategy for how they want the device used.

I've resigned myself to living with Lama. Sigh..

Yes, if you disable both acceleration options you should be able to select deinterlacing (I think you can also have one of them enabled and still get deinterlacing options but I'm not sure which one).

In fact, over the last couple of weeks the number of apps under the "Entertainment" category has gone down from 32 to 27 (currently). It is possible that the developers may have pulled the apps, but I am guessing that Amazon had a role to play.

Would it be possible for you to show how you would handle the adb push zip file below into easy steps for me to follow to delete from FTV. I am having a hard time understanding how the adb works.

C:\>adb push C:\XBMC\plugin.video.plexbmc-3.4.6beta2.zip /sdcard/

Try this:

C:\> adb shell rm /sdcard/plugin.video.plexbmc-3.4.6beta2.zip

That's all

Surprisingly my friend's app, which I helped test as he didn't have a FTV, was approved 3 days after submission. Maybe because it's a game as you noted.

On a different note, here's a list of sideloaded apps that work on FTV (XDA forum).
