Yes, It seems that Google now lets you use the Movie/TV app while Rooted.
I haven't bought anything else, but Transformers plays fine on my rooted Nexus 7.
Plays fine for me.

Does anyone buy or rent new Movie/TV from Play Store?
After you bought, can you play video?
My rooted Xperia Play cannot play video, so my Nexus 7 does not root.
I'm pretty sure you can play movies /w root because of the encryption scheme in jellybean. I'm guessing that the actual videos get encrypted as app data. Root or no root, I doubt they can be copied off the device and played.
Honestly, I have a lot of respect for google in this regard....they are the only company that has figured out a way to allow users to tinker with their devices and still uphold whatever the copyright holders and developers want...don't get me wrong though, i HATE drm. Google is awesome for figuring out a solution that makes both sides happy.
I bought the season of Breaking Bad since rooting my Nexus7.No problems with purchase or playing it.Transformers plays great just as before rooting.I am stock JB except for the rooting process.
Yes you can use the Movies/TV app now.. i just bought a TV Ep the other day and it streamed just fine from the cloud.. i don't know about on my Gnex or other rooted devices
EDIT: Looks like its still not working on other devices.. just tried watching the same episode i bought on my Nexus 7 on my gnex and it kept saying " can't fetch license 901"

That's interesting. I wonder if it's actually a hardware thing after all? Well for other devices you can just use the Temp Unroot feature in the Superuser app. I've been testing this feature and it's worked flawlessly. Flixster streams Movies fine when enabled and so does Google Movies on my other devices.

Not talking about OTA Root Keeper. Temp Unroot is a separate feature in the Superuser app.

Ok I'm fairly new to the Streak7, I use Flixster to stream on my Infuse that is rooted by using the temp root remover app. Now I was trying to do the same thing with my Streak7 but it does not seem to work.
I am running a Streak7 4G on the official Honeycomb ROM it is just rooted and some system apps removed that I didn't want taking up space. I would be willing to unrooted completely if I need to.
Sent from a tablet using an app.
Also everything on Flixster's website and trouble shooting guide says I should be working unless the temp root remover tool is not removing it enough for the app to work.
Any help would be appreciated

'UV' streaming Movies & Flixster??
Does anybody reading this have Flixster & "UltraViolet" streaming moives working on their Streak-7 3.2?
By the lack of response, I would say that you and I are the only two interested in trying.
I have even talked (emailed) back and forth with flixster/ultraviolet.

From what I can gather their software is expecting the Streak-7 to only have 2.X software as the video driver is different in 3.X??

There are at least two to consider, maybe more. Dell Stage Remote App is one and Emit which needs software on your PC to be installed.
I thought would start this post since I didn't see one where people could some of there favorite video apps that don't come stock on the N7. Her is my list:
1. Netflix - pretty good app and greatest availability of streaming movies you will find from a monthly service.
2. Xfinity Player: Nice updates to the UI for 7 inch tablets and really good for catching up on old episodes of Spartacus.
3. Crunchyroll: The premiere app for watching animes that are subbed and best of all they have a free option that works over Wi-Fi. Doesn't work over Bluetooth tethering, but ICS built in Wi-Fi tethering is just fine if you don't mind the ads.
4. HomeDia: A nice free app that allows you to stream videos on your home network. I paired mine up with plex media server since you have to pay for tversity and it has worked well. If it doesn't play a video just use a third video player app like rockplayer.
5. Dailymotion: To be honest the only reason I use this app is to catch up with subbed anime episodes of OnePiece, outside of that nothing really else for me.
The good thing about these apps are they are free to download and numbers 1, 2, and 5 have apps for the Xbox 360. Well those are mine, so what are yours?

Crackle has some good free movies and tv shows. I also like to browse vimeo using the app, there are lots of cool videos on there.
If you like to watch current TV DROID TV Primetime actually works very well on the N7. There are quite a few free shows but for @$9 for three months you can get shows like Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Greys Anatomy, and dozens of others. I have used it for over a year on my DROID X and it sizes up really well to the 7inch for factor.

Are you doing this on a N7?
I had problems with it on my N7 in that I couldn't get it to lower/hide the info when the video was playing. Unless I am missing something .... On my phone it worked just fine.
UPDATE
Now if this isn't stupid on my part..... if you touch the video when it is playing, a icon shows on the bottom left to make it Full Screen... thought I had tried everything...

Thanks I didnt know that Crackle would work with the N7 unless I installed flash. So far it looks pretty good, I just dont like how the UI doesn't work that well in portrait mode. Hey that's what updates are for.

My Chromecast will be arriving in the mail the 28th and I cannot wait to play with the sucker. Now my question is this. Will I be able to run Fling on my Chromecast without rooting it or does it need to be rooted? Does this apply with AirCast as well?

Nope, it will work fine without root. Just don't expect miracles with Fling. It can run mp4 videos fine but MKV's and AVI's are a mess. The transcoder used is complete crap and unless you are running a beast PC and don't want 1080p video you will be ok, otherwise those file types are unplayable as is. MP4 streaming works because it doesn't need to be transcoded. It's just being played natively on the Chromecast.

Stream local unsupport content yes. Mp4 files will work fine. So will Mp3's. Just not AVI's. I think AVI's are causing the most problems actually. MKV's can get playback but it's so laggy and quality of picture is very low. AVI's just seem like they wont play. Still this device has been out for about a month now. You can't expect hacked features like this to be complete. If you buy a Chromecast now you are buying it for what it will do not what it can do.

I'm able to play avi just fine.
mpg is also good.
mkv does have problems that they're still working through.
The latest update earlier today fixed the discovery issue I was having. Now I've finally been able to play with fling and chromecast. Very satisfied and excited with how it's coming along.

Stock video app - only if you have a rooted Chromecast and use the specific version of AllCast (see FAQ).
Otherwise you can use Avia (paid option) or RealPlayer Cloud.

Chances are your chromecast got updated when you first plugged it in and the root won't work now.

I've also been a VERY proud owner of a Galaxy Note 3 since around early to mid-October when it was first released. All Chromecast-enabled apps have worked just fine on my phone **SO FAR**. As far as I can remember, I've never had a single issue casting from my Note 3, even with the "working" version of Koushik's AllCast/AirCast app. Everything has been just fine and problem-free thus far!!(As far as I know....*[1.]My fingers have remained crossed since I bought this phone back in October. ...&... [2.]This wooden desk has had a small knuckle-sized hole 'knocked' straight through it!!* LOL). But yea, as far as the "stock" Samsung Video app goes, as long as your Chromecast has been rooted and you've installed the correct, "working" version of Koushik Dutta's AllCast/AirCast app onto your phone, you *should* be able to just open up the Video app, locate your video that you're wanting to cast(Google's Chromecast PREFERS for "casted" videos to have the .mp4 file extension and also to have been encoded using the H264 video codec and the AAC audio codec.), and finallllllly, locate and press the "Share to AllCast" button up at the top of the app(If you don't happen to see the "Share to AllCast" icon up at the top of the Videos app, you just MAY have to click on the little 2 or 3 pronged "Share to..." button up at the top of the app instead and just scroll down the list that pops up to locate the AllCast app.). Assuming that your Chromecast has already been properly rooted and the correct version of "AllCast" has been installed, your video(Also assuming that the video has been properly encoded in the H264/AAC codecs.) *SHOULLLDDD* start playing on your tv screen in all its beauty (...with an echo ringing throughout your house/apartment/trailer/cardboard box(I'm TOTALLY J/K about this one!!) coming from your Chromecast sounding eerily like Tarzan in the jungle!! Lol!!).

Does it work well on our nexus 6.
I've used it. It works fantastic when you're on the same network as your PS4. They haven't made it work outside the home yet on Lollipop. Probably won't until Lollipop comes out for the Xperia phones.
I too have tried it, and it does work great!

Yep works great
works flawless after you set it up properly. I use it almost every day
Are you guys able to use the dualshock manager to connect the controller natively, or are you all using sixaxis? Do you still have to double click for R3 and L3?
