flash!
« on: December 26, 2012, 04:21:53 PM »
I just got a Nexus 7 tablet and I'm really loving it. My sister is thinking about getting one, but it's important for her to be able to watch full episodes of shows from MTV.com. I got flash working using firefox and a compatable flash installation I found online (an apx).

On MTV.com short videos will play in the browser, but when I click on "full epsisodes" and try to play one it shows a black box where the video should be and says "sorry, this video is unavailable." Can someone please help me fix this?

Also, when I watched the short video in the browser I couldn't figure out how to make it full screen. I tried holding down my finger, but that didn't work. I also just tried tapping once (or twice) quickly to see if an option would pop up, but that didn't work either.

Thanks ahead of time for the help!

I'd be glad to help offer some advice.  Can you post a URL of the page that includes one of the short videos that youare talking about.  A link to the full episodes page would be useful as well.

Mine took some time to load on MTV but worked.
It was a black square for about 30 seconds but then buffered and played.  If you need the Flash apk to load let us know.

Here's a link to a video that works:
http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/868161/kailyn.jhtml#series=2216&seriesId=34714&channelId=1&id=1699391

Here's a link to a video that doesn't work:
http://www.mtv.com/videos/teen-mom-2-season-3-ep-7-building-blocks/1699193/playlist.jhtml


Bjs229, did you find that video under " full episodes" if so can you post the link?


For the ones that don't work for me, I can " tap to play", but then it says video not available


Thanks for the quick replies!
