Working on my Evo with Android 2.2 and flash 10. The higher quality videos stutter at times but it works, watching the goods right now on epix. Unfortunately Hulu videos are still blocked.
I am going to try with skyfire since they do sever side compression which should help.
Have the same issue as others with channels we have saying they need to upgrade, but the videos still play.
Btw, had it running on my laptop and phone with different shows running, so looks like multiple simultaneous logins is fine.
For those with android, tried it with skyfire, works much better in that browser, does not look as good, but smooth playback over wifi anyway.
Yep, that's what I get, too. Tried different computers, different browsers, emptied caches, got rid of all dish & sling cookies... Macs and PCs. From home. From work. Even rebooted my 722K.
Dish doesn't seem to have a very good track record when it comes to their website offerings, IMO. It just seems like everything is half-assed.
if you have ubuntu try the link below for 64 bit linux flash. It works on my computer using opera as the browser. Failing that google "64 bit linux flash" and you will find a method that works eventually.
Install 64-bit Adobe Flash Player on Ubuntu (updated to 10.04 and closing of 64-bit beta) « *n*x
Video playback with Hulu (or, anyone using the hulu backend) works? Namely - they detect 64 bit versions of flash, and deny access!
Adobe pulled the 64-bit version of Flash for Linux due to some major security problems, so you may want to try 32-bit version of Flash via the nspluginwrapper... it's in the Ubuntu repositories. I'm running this on 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 and Dish Online works great.
Unfortunately until Adobe releases a better 64-bit version of Flash for Linux , which they say they're making some major changes to, your best bet is the wrapper or gnash which I hear the latest version 0.8.8 works quiet well now though I haven't tried it yet.
