2 and a half weeks since I downloaded the app and I haven’t even been able to use it. Guess Crunchyroll will have to do me for now.
Sorry if I’m posting this in the wrong place and sorry if the answer is actually obvious, is what I would like to say first.
I was wondering if you could actually watch the episodes on the iPhone, instead of just the episode summary? And if you can, may I ask how? If I can’t, sorry for asking such a question, but it seemed like that was the goal of the app.
Thanks!
This isn’t exactly my area, but we have a thread for this:
http://www.theanimenetwork.com/component/option,com_kunena/Itemid,65/catid,5/func,view/id,62294/
Please read the first post and then post your problem in the thread and an alert will notify the correct person.
It works directly from Safari??? Why couldnt you mention that before??? I will test it right now. EDIT: Well it does work, but it looks like Ive been under the wrong impression the whole time and waiting for no reason - everything is Premium!! I had thought you would allow free access to the same list as is free on Time Warner’s Cutting Edge VOD. But you allow only two shows and they’re “coming soon”. I give up…

If you had read the first post and the announcement, you would have known this from the start. I’m sorry you have been waiting needlessly.
Sorry if this was already discussed in the thread, but I still haven’t figured out how to view the episodes on the iPhone (I happen to be using the iPhone 4) If it’s obvious, I’m sorry for my stupidity, but I don’t understand how to get to viewing the episodes. Once you get to the page with the episode description, #, rating & genre, how do you get to viewing the actual episode?
Thank you!

What happens when you use Safari to access this page:

It should look like this, with the JWPLAYER running. http://www.theanimenetwork.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/CanaanEp01.jpg

When using the site through mobile safari, tap on the episode TN, just like you would on the desktop site. Once the episode page has loaded, tap the “play” icon in the middle of the player box.
On the regular site, the episode would auto play, but on mobile devices, the user must hit “play” in case they don’t have unlimited data plans.
So the common viewing method is through safari, and the episodes cannot be viewed through the app?

We have a fix in the works for the crash bugs that are occurring with the app. Right now, the easiest way to view on an iOS device is through mobile Safari.
We’ll post an update when the fix for the app has been approved by Apple.
I use an iPhone 3GS. I can watch some episodes but not all of them. I am a subscriber so why can’t I view all the episodes

Please look at the very first post and give us some more info, and make sure you are viewing through Safari.
Or, if this is some of the newer episodes, there were a few corrupt files, so they took some of them down. They’ll be back in a few days.
Just an update on the file fix: We isolated the problem and are re-encoding the files for recent/ongoing shows. We’re also going to be encoding the older/back-catalogue shows. I don’t have an exact timeframe for when everything will be done, so I’ll post some more updates in this thread as we pass different stages.
This will allow users to watch everything (Features, Episodes, Music Videos) that the normal website Online Player has to offer through Mobile Safari for the iPhone/iPad very soon.
We’re working on fixes and submissions with Apple for the iPhone/iPad App- I’ll post an announcement on that when the update is available in the App Store for download.
All my viewing has been through safari. Gogol 13 I don’t get any episodes after13
Xamid nothing after the third episode, neoangalic (2) nothing after ep.8

We’ve had to re-encode iOS versions of many of our new shows due to corruption/glitches. As they are ready, they will be released again.
Golgo 13 Dub should be available in its entirety this afternoon to view through mobile Safari. I think several other new/ongoing shows will have additional episodes coming out tomorrow. I’ll list them out as I re-enable them.
More titles will be coming back/catching up over the next couple days.
We’re also encoding the older catalogue titles- they’ll be coming out over the next week as well.

It will be an update. We’ll post a message here on the site and in the forums when the new version has been approved and is live. You will also see that an update is available on your device’s App Store icon as well (the red oval with numbers will appear).
Okay, my curiosity got the best of me and I checked the re-encode’s progress…
We have a bunch of newer shows that have been brought current.
I’ll post a full list tomorrow.
There are some shows that have one or two episodes not available on an iOS device, but are available on the computer. (Example: Maid-Sama #23 & Taisho Baseball Girls #1)
Don’t be alarmed if you run across an episode that you can’t select to watch through mobile safari. They didn’t pass inspection & will be enabled when they are working correctly again.

I see there are a lot of new shows. Why can’t I watch them on my iPhone.
I’m going through safari so why. When I try it just keeps downloading movie but no show. Also
When I try getting any motion picture downloads I get great video but
The sound is in slowmo
I need to know which shows/episodes you are referring to. Without knowing, I can’t check for a problem.
