Revue and Accessories

As of 12/24/11 Shockwave is still crashing on HBO-GO, TNT, EPIC, TBS, etc. Upon watching the beginning of HBO-GO content it crashes at no particuliar point, either at the beginning or midstream. This is accompanied by a yellow-orange banner at the bottom of the screen indicating Chrome has expeirenced a Shockwave crash. After following the steps outlined I could detect no difference.

You make it further than I do with HBO Go.  I can't even get a video to load or the shockwave player to load to a point where I have control panels and such (like the buttons for the player and the progress bar).  Mine just goes straight to a black screen and this happens even after a restart of the device.  

All I want for Christmas is my Revue to work like it did in 2.1

Logitech Is Holding Out On Us: Revue Update Incomplete

by Marissa Johnson onDecember 26, 2011 · in Software, Uncategorized

It turns out that the Honeycomb update that rolled out to the Logitech Revue a couple weeks ago was incomplete: the updated Revue does not support the full Google TV Version 2.0 enhancements for video and media streaming capabilities. The limited functionality is centered around the Logitech Media Player, which lacks support for transport streams (.ts) and the MPEG-2 codec, both of which where implemented by Sony in the Honeycomb update.

Upon first discovery of this shortcoming, it was thought that  perhaps the Revue had a limited chipset that wasn’t capable of supporting the MPEG-2 codec used in traditional DVDs, but deeper probing has revealed that the Revue is not only capable, but that support had been available in the first leaked beta version of Honeycomb and had been specifically removed in later leaks and the official release.

So, why is Logitech barring its users from some features while at the same time blaming Google for the Revue’s lack of success? Furthermore, why are they bothering to push incomplete updates that only serve to highlight the fact that Logitech has got one foot out the door? This is troubling news for customers who have already invested in Revue units, and even more troubling for customers who have just purchased units this holiday season under high expectations of improvement. We will keep our fingers crossed that Logitech pushes another update that offers full functionality. If not, Logitech may have just sent a message that officially sentences the Revue to market death.

IF you are having a problem with putlocker on letmewatchthis there might be a temporary solution to your problem. When you here the audio without any video, click on where your progression bar is located near the bottom in the middle of the screen. You should use fullscreen mode which is located on the bottom right corner of the black empty box where the video should be. When I do this the video appears then i push play and scroll back to the beginning of the movie. Hopefully this works for you. As far as the shockwave flash player crashing I haven't dealt with it as of yet.

Peter - I am having significant problems with Shockwave crashing when I bring up ESPN-3.  This is very frustrating and I expect Logitech to fix this ASAP.

For the next little bit our Product managers are on vacation for the holidays. 

They may post while they are on vacation, but will be fully back by Jan. 3rd. 

As this is more of an issue with the Chrome browser though there maybe other things that contribute to this, this information is also being forward to Google by Peter as he gets it.

We do appreciate everyone's patience, but this is something that we need to work with Google on.

Cat - thank you for getting back to me.  Do you have an idea as to how long it will take to resolve this issue with Google?  It is a pretty basic and important feature of the Revue for Shockwave Flash to work.  In fact, the primary reason I bought the device was so I could watch ESPN3 on my computer by using the Revue.  It's very frustrating that this basic function isn't working, and it should have been properly tested before releasing it to consumers.

That being said, do you have an idea as to when you will be able to fix this so I can use the product for the purpose for which I purchased it?  This is very frustrating and somewhat misleading from the standpoint of Logitech.

Thank you,

Ilya

Hello Ilya,

I am not sure how long this will take to get resolved as our engineers are working closely with Google for this.

I wish I could pass on more info, but I cannot.
