"LIVE TV" app

wwwoooaaahhhhhhhhhh

Ok, so I always watch ATDHE for games and special televised events, and I REALLY HOPE this app doesn't make ATDHE go the way of all the other tv streaming sites. ATDHE even shows NFL network....

This app would be better if it could actually show us all the ATDHE links that are currently playing. ATDHE is fine using just the browser except the videos come up in a popup and you have to expand them in flash.

Very cool!

Just uninstalled the old flash 10.1 and put in the beta flash 10.1 (3). no go for me.

Same Veetle crap.

What's even more horrifying is that NBC only brings up a frozen picture of Jay Leno.

For those of you with 2.1 that don't want to update yet, there IS a way to watch this content.

Download Skyfire from the market and browse to atdhe.net with it.

LONG press the link you want to watch, and choose "open in new window"

The bottom bar showing the video should show up and you should be able to start playing it. If it doesn't, press menu.

I was watching ATDHE stuff this way long before Froyo!

works great! thanks!

Is there any way to watch ESPN on 2.1 if your not rooted? Awesome APP by the way!

It keeps telling me I need Veetle. So can you still change Flash on 2.1 without being rooted?
Nevermind, I just forgot to tap the video in the lower left corner. works now!

i think i found the problem with the espn getting the veetle plugin at the start. well..i remeber downloading a nexus fix that was a flash 10.1 for hulu. it fixed hulu but i thought that maybe if i downloaded the regular 10.1 instead of the hulu fixed (flash 10.1) it might work. we'll...it did. i now have espn after downloading the regular flash 10.1 and not the flash 10.1 hulu fix. here is the flash i downloaded. link below. you must go to /menu/applications/manage applications/ and delete the original flash first before you can install this flash. leave message for ones that tries this so we know if it worked for others..it did me. link below.

Just tried this and it works. ESPN on my phone..kinda sick! My phone gets way too hot though. I don't expect to watch much programming if it's hot but it's nice to have.

It does!

You do need to avoid the "veetle" links though. If you're lucky, some live games will have multiple links, and you can choose a non-veetle one.

The more I think about this app though, the more I don't like it. It might bring too much attention to atdhe. It is the best of all those sites because it aggregates feeds from different sources and brings it with minimal BS, no malicious/deceptive links, etc.

works fine on my droid x! woohoo! now i wont miss much when im not home... hahahah thanks so much!

Check it out again guys/gals. Live TV has been updated and ESPN is flawless. No more "veetle" (at least for me)

Check it out and post up

I just tried it out, I didnt get the veetle message like I was last week but it still doesnt play everything I go to. It plays ESPN fine for me as it did last week, but when ever I go to NBC it doesnt load anything and when I go to Discovery Channel it always acts like its loading but then just freezes on a Lowe's commercial. Its been showing the same frozen commercial since last week for me.
So, I think it stiil needs some improvement but I aint complaining.

Same here NBC has been frozen on a jay Leno commercial since I downloaded it. And when I try to watch CNN it says it is disabled. HGTV is also slow. But further development does make this app look promising. Cant wait to see what 2.0 looks like that he says he is working on.

Same frozen channels for me. I remember it being this way from time to time when I used to watch on the home comp before the Droid. It's the feed not the app.

I just tried this out today. Im running BB .4 and I was able to run it extremely smooth on wifi and then I tried on 3G. It froze once but other than that it was pretty smooth. I'm very impressed. Can't wait to see his next releases and what that will do to this app. This is great! However, what happens when Verizon implements tiered data plans and no unlimited? It will be pretty hard to run this app right?
