Got it running on my Acer Iconia B-1 Tablet but it will not shift into landscape (widescreen) mode when I turn the tablet around.

Running reasonably well on my Nexus 7. Ocasonally freeze's, but only if I try to fast forward through a program, all good if I just let it run. Thanks for the link.

Mine will go landscape when the video plays.

The app itself doesn't rotate (it's simply designed not to), but if you press the full screen button when a video is playing, the video should go full-screen.

Ah, yeah, forgot about the full screen requirement!

The app installs then closes on launch on my HP Slate 7. Oh well working on my 2x so that's ok. Can't say I'll use it much anyway but I suppose handy to have.

taneb1: Remove this if it is not allowed.

The APK file is here, have tested on multiple non samsung devices and is working fine.

Nice one, thanks.

My mileage certainly varied with this!

Samsung Note II N7105, stock ROM (rooted) - app works like a dream
Samsung Note 8.0 N5110, stock ROM - app loads ok but freezes tablet when trying to watch a program
Asus Transformer TF101, CM10 Aug 25 nightly with Apex launcher - app loads ok but programs won't play (endless spinning circle)
Sony Xperia SP C5303, stock ROM - app works like a dream

Maybe it doesnt like rooted/custom roms? I know the iOS one doesnt like jailbreaks.

It's really daft. What has TVNZ got to gain by not making this work with everything?

Not by mine either as it works on one rooted device and doesn't work on a Samsung device that isn't rooted. Interesting it works on your TF101 (different ROM though) and your stock Note 8.0 - I feel a little jealous :-)

The app force closes as soon as you launch it on the HP Slate 7.

On my rooted S4 it opens everything plays advert well then gets about 10 seconds into program and locks up everything barring an annoying sound.

Not sure its worth unrooting device to try it out
