Updated the first post a bit, sounds nice

[DEAD_MAN_WALKING]

looks good but 12.1MB is quite big for a phone...?

[Admin]

Anyone who tested it already?

No,it is not.They easily reach 32G or more of memory.

[algi]

Yeah, anyone who tested it already?

I am DLing it now(very very slow)and I'll let you know here.There was already a kind of channels list,let's hope somebody has really developed a player!

[Admin]

Yeah take a look at the pictures on Sopcast: http://www.sopcast.cn/docs/android.html . That's what sopcast has developed, so might be better then

[algi]

Yes, there I was...

[algi]

First impression:absolutely positive!
I'm posting from a GalaxyS2 and it is working.With the H264 channels is lagging a lot,with other ones still has many uncertainities.I imagine it has been developed thinking of ICS and not specially Gingerbread.
Good luck,the path is good and personally I consider it the best news of 2012,even a bi touching to havd to deal with a 0. version of sop again
It doesn't start from protocol link(yet?) and I haven't yet found how to insert the same.

First impression:absolutely positive!
plays protocol link/http/mms/sop,you can find the url input bar under local media

[algi]

...url input bar under local media...

..right! and here they are:SopcastX

Amazing! I didn't think this would ever happen. If someone can manage a Streamtorrent app for Android as well, my life will be complete.

[bloodzeed]

working fine on my GalaxyS2

It took a couple minutes to buffer, but the stream ran great. The only problem is that you can't control the media volume with your phone's controls. Or at least I can't on my Incredible S.

Edit: Never mind. Volume works.

I got sound but no video on a Galaxy Nexus.

[Chrizzzie]

Just a thought. As far as I know Sopcast channels rely on sufficient upload of the viewers combined. I don't think there are many cell phone networks which have a sufficient upload yet. Wouldn't this cause a problem if you've a lot of mobile viewers for a single channel?

Not invasive useful widgets:Slider , Musica Volume or ....commanded headphones.

Decent. I could see both of these being pretty handy. Thanks!

[algi]

It's indeed running already very well.I am watching,on an Android tablet,channel 79509 at 1711 k/bsec and is relly amazingly good.

@Admin
I think you should make an app or even a widget as...I'll send them to you if I know where
