Any one successfully streaming HD from AA2
I'm using Hyperion 4 and picked up a little android dual core box to stream to kitchen TV
The AA2 and the android box are on the same cat 5 network ( not wireless ) using vu player the standard def channels work well but the HD is rubbish
any better apps that anybody knows of
Many thanks

not the app mate its the large stream off the hd channel , its just too much data for the android to handle, do you have a triple as the cable channels use less data and they stream ok
-
Thanks for the reply
Yep its a triple
As you pointed out the SD channels work well just the hd is wonkey not sure though is saorview here in Ireland is still transmitting Sd as well as the HD version of RTE 1 & RTE 2 if they are i could probably create another boquet with just the SD version for watching in the kitchen
If I do another scan of the terrestial will that wipe the existing terrestial channels or just add them on ?
Thanks -
As far as i know, Saorview is hd only for rte one and two, here in the west anyway, open to correction.
Saorsat still transmit rte one on sd but rte two is hd though.
I don't think scanning terestrial again will wipe your existing channels unless you select "clear before scan" on e2 anyway.
Have no experience with the spark side tbh.. -
Thanks for that
been looking and came up with same rte 1 & 2 seem to be HD now :-( -
Got it working on HD
I downgraded the version of android on the Cubieboard 2 to Android 4.2_v1.06
Then using the Dreamdroid app and the default Tvdplayer in android it streams Hd without any problems
This is of course over the Lan ( cat 5 network in the house ) not wifi
Happy days
