HFS with HP Touchpad

RedB · **on:** October 05, 2011, 05:01:04 PM

Hi there!

First of all thanks a lot for this nice program!

I use HFS with my HP Touchpad to "download" or better to stream video(mp4) and music(mp3)
files over my homenetwork! Sure, I could put them directly on the HP Touchpad over USB, but
one problem is, videofiles bigger than 2GB will not be played, they only can be streamed or you
have to split them and the second one is the spare memoryspace!!!
But actually that's not my problem! My problem is, that over the generated weblinks from HFS,
I can open or better stream mp3 files, but only one after the other and only by clicking on the
weblink and that's very annoying! A playlist like m3u doesn't work – only the first song will be
played!? I'm searching now for a template, that lets me select the mp3 files and play them one
by one automatically!!! I searched through the forum and tried some templates, but by now,
there is nothing that could solved my problem - maybe someone here can help me!?

thx
RedB

you can make it to play all file in one folder.
RAWR templates can do this.

just click on first song in your folder , then when when player starts click in lower right corner and choose listplay.

Thx for your reply!

I tried it just the way as you described it and it works just fine over my pc, but not over my HP Touchpad!?
I clicked on the forecastbutton, the player opens and the song starts, but the only thing is, I can't click on
any button(stop, pause, etc.) in the playerwindow except for the X to close the playerwindow!?!?!?

It seems to be a problem by the HP Touchpad itself or better a problem to manage flashapplication - who knows!?

I hope you or someone else has a clue or an alternative solution!?

strange..
do you have the last adobe flash player.
what bowser do you use , maybe update that.
maybe try another one.

Okay, maybe I should have mentioned, that the HP Touchpad has its own OS -> webOS and is based on linux!
Surfing and watching videos on YouTube works just fine and I can use all functions of the YouTube-player!!!

Perhaps this can help

Mozilla/5.0 (hp-tablet; Linux; hpwOS/3.0.2; U; de-DE) AppleWebKit/534.6 (KHTML, like Gecko) wOSBrowser/234.40.1 Safari/534.6 TouchPad/1.0

its out of the logs from HFS!

P.S.: Its not possible to update flash - well, for now!!!

for the USB limit, did you try formatting your pendrive with exFAT and NTFS ?

Hi its me again!

Still having no solution for my mp3 problem on my HP TouchPad!
Just like I mentioned before, the RAWR template btw. player doesn't work with the HP TouchPad!!!

But I think I may have an idea now!!!

The command ->

GET /Audio/CS%20Tracks/CS%20-%20Kill%20me%20camper%20one%20more%20time.mp3 HTTP/1.1

starts the mp3 file as a stream on the HP TouchPad, so I thought it should be possible to mark all the files
you want to hear and let them play one after another with the GET command, but for this it needs
coding and I'm not good at that!!! Maybe you or someone else here can help!!!

thx
RedB
