Android :: Prevent Android From Downloading Video From Website
Nov 19, 2010
I am a web developer delivering video on a webpage. When I link to a video file (.m4v), Android wants to download the video to the phone, and then you can play the video from your phone.On an iPhone (and Palm Pre), however, the same link just opens up the video in the media player, and returns to the web page upon completion.
My website is for members only, and I would prefer them not to be able to download the videos. Obviously I know there is no way to completely protect the videos, but I would like to at least make it appear like you can't download the video for a casual user. Streaming is not really an option.So my question is how do I deliver the iPhone experience (opening in a media player) on an Android phone?

Can Webview tell me that I didn't get a HTTP 200 OK HTTP response code? I really don't want to display the Android Web Page Not Available screen inside my app.

So far I go to the website, look up a few apps and then search for them on the market. Is there an advantage to signing up to the website, downloading the appbrain app etc?

I watch a lot of anime from Nwanime or TV series from Couchtuner When I open these video webpages on Android I have to nagivate like on a desktop browser (tiny play button and maximise button and seek bar) On the iphone the video would open in the default video player.
How can I enable my Android device to open these videos with a default video player like mxplayer for example?
*note. Mxplayer is already my dafault player, so if I open an actual video file it plays in mxplayer. My problem is with web video

Today I was trying to download and update some apps via wifi but later I discovered that it was on mobile data and I received message from Operator/Carrier that I have crossed my data pack limit and using it further will be chargeable. Is there any way to stop or prevent downloading apps when phone is using Data Pack?

I wasn't able to find my question in the forums so here goes:
Every time I go to download my photos from my phone (both SD card and internal), I end up downloading thumbnails and images from websites I've visited as well as people's avatars from foursquare. I end up having to delete hundreds of images every time I want to download my pix.
Any idea how to disable the downloading of the web stuff? (Can the phone differentiate web image from photos I've taken from the camera?) I've tried from both the phone side and the computer side and I can't figure it out. Also, is there any way to get my phone to stop storing these web images? I don't think I need them, do I? (I'm a newbie smartphone owner if you couldn't tell!)

I had tried using Dolphin and an disguise myself as the iPhone browser. It would bring up the video option, but when I tried to play, it would say the media was not supported!
It seems just yesterday they've added native support for Android. Now I can watch the highlight of the day, top 10s, etc all from their website.

A new update came out yesterday for doubleTwist that allows podcasts to be downloaded and synced just like on the iPod/iPhones. And not just audio podcasts like Google's app, you also get video podcasts as well! Though it does seem like it takes awhile to sync them, it is a way cool addition that makes doubleTwist closer to that all-inclusive experience that iTunes gives with all the different media.

Is there an app or website that lets you download or stream video clips (movie trailers, etc.) in 720p?
I tried youtube and selected "view in high quality" but I highly doubt it was displaying 720p.

I recorded some video on my Droid Ally and I am having problems downloading it with its audio. I can connect and mount droid and go to DCIM and copy the pictures and video I shot. When I paste it on my PC the video plays but there is no sound. When I play them in my gallery on the phone there is sound and video. Will dropbox work?

Are there any apps out there that take the movie file and apply the right codec to it so that the file can be downloaded in 720p? Is this something HTC is planning on updating or did they do it intentionally for some reason? Can I upload files to youtube from my phone in 480p?

I've got some photos stuck in an MMS that I tried to download before I realised that I didnt have the correct MMS APN settings in (due to swapping to the Modaco ROM). The correct settings are now in but the MMS is stuck at "downloading" status. Is there any way I can rescue it, there is no forward option and I've successfully sent and recieved MMS since.

I know that this was asked before, but he one I found only pointed the person to the android sdk and documentation and I'm sre that there must be an easier way for doing what I wanna do.OK, so I have a mobile site I built specifically for his purpose, which is sitting online as we speak, but I want to put it in an app.so basically I want to have something with a browser in it that will only load my site (hiding teh URL off course creating the illusion of an app).Is there any way to do this quickly and easily with having to install eclipse and all that? Maybe a freestanding application that can just "frame" a site like that?

I really don't know why it's giving me this error... I load an ImageView with an image of 692kb .jpg, using scroll options, so you can scroll it around... the strange it's that when the mobile it's connected to the VM it's less possible to happen. So...how can I prevent this? is there anyway that I can free memory when starting the app? can I tell the system to free memory before loading the image?

I cannot seem to login to a particular website. I get a server error and their help desk says it may be that I need to clear the cache and enable cookies. Well I did that and it did not help. I then installed another browser (Dolphin H) and the problem persists. I ahve used quite a bit of time to solve the problem but I am stumped. I can login into other secure websites but not this one

I've seen a lot of people mentioning some sites in passing, but to be frank they are underwhelming and/or not content rich. I'm looking for a much more comprehensive app review website.

Aviator Android Apps | Ultimate guide to aviation apps for Android devices Just found this. Apparently its a new site that is trying to emulate a similar site for apps for the iPhone. Any pilots on the forum? If so, share your aviation apps cause that site is kinda sparse at the moment.
