im playing avi/mp4/mkv files using kalemsoft media player

just finished scarface and pulp fiction in 720p on my touchpad

fucken epic!


for music im using the app music(Remix)

both work preety dam well compared to the apps you originally get

your suppose to pay for these apps but i found them from the first page if you search hard enough lol

Mobilism • View forum - WebOS

i usually convert my mkv/bluray files to mp4 to save size.. you could also do this with other video formats

HP TouchPad supported Video formats: MPEG-4, H.263, H.264

took me awhile to find the perfect settings but this is what i use

HD MPEG-4 Video(*.mp4)” .

set video resolution to 1024*768 for enjoy movies on HP TouchPad in full screen

set video bitrate to 3000kbps

Android, Coming Soon To Your HP Touchpad
http://edge.alluremedia.com.au/m/l/2011/10/cmod.jpg
Snagged a HP Touchpad (or seven) during its $98 fire sale in August? Either you’ve come to terms with what webOS offers and its decidedly terminal fate, or, you’ve been hanging out for CyanogenMod to get Android onto the hardware. It looks like CM are getting closer to making this reality, judging by their latest video.

CM has put together an experimental installer, called ACME, to automate the process as much as possible. There are a few steps you need to do beforehand, as shown in the clip, but it’s by no means a laborious task. You can even set it up to have Android and webOS running in a dual-boot configuration.

Sadly, the installer hasn’t been made available and no date is forthcoming — not even an alpha — but I’m sure Touchpad owners are happy to know a bright, Android-shaped future awaits them.

If you download govnah, there's a preset setting for 1.5. 1.7 + requires more work.

I'm excited for android to be ported over soon ^^

ImportXxX 10-04-2011 07:34 PM

thanks, so the url and the feed name is not necessary for 1.5? that was easyy..lol

So I've officially installed Android of my touch pad. Works like a charm, no problems or glitches!

SumAznGuy 10-24-2011 10:35 PM

There is one glitch. Don't let your TP run out of power. I was using it on sunday and forgot to charge it. This morning, the device wouldn't turn on when after charging it for a while, the only thing it does is show the CM7 logo cycling. I can hard restart and go to WebOS no problems but android will not load.

Only fix for this is to delete and reinstall CM7.

This time around, I might wait for Beta to come out before I install it.

any idea when the official CM7 version will be released? Isnt current one alpha 2?

Rated_R 12-01-2011 08:58 AM

Any thoughts on Android? has it been stable

SumAznGuy 12-01-2011 09:15 AM

Co-worker said his keeps crashing while mine has been problem free. Even the dead battery crashing issue is gone with the last install.

In sleep mode, the wifi turns off and battery conservation is pretty good.

threezero 12-01-2011 05:25 PM

In case any body is looking for a way to input chinese in webos here a patch that adds baidu pinyin and chinese handwriting. FOR 3.0.4 ONLY i'm been using this for a few days very stable and the text prediction is very good. There seems to be a minor bug where it doesn't remember that you left that keyboard on eng, next time you bring up the keyboard it forgets and default to chinese. nothing major only one click to change it back. It does both simplify and traditional chinese

to install either:
1. open link through touchpad and download/install directly via preware
2. download to desktop than install with webosquikinstall
