Today we’re marking another company milestone with the launch of the Ustream Android Viewer beta, the first live viewing application for the Android platform, which enables users to watch any Ustream show on Wifi or 3G.
From Shakira’s new music video, 50 Cent’s movie screening, the Twilight: New Moon Red Carpet premiere, and tonight’s concert with KISS from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, the premium, entertaining content Ustream has come to represent is now available on Android devices, and is available for free download in the Android Market. Watch any Ustream show from anywhere!
This is our second application for the Android platform, as we launched the Ustream Android Broadcaster several weeks ago, enabling users to stream live from their phones on 3G or Wifi. We recently made an updated version — check it out. The Android Viewer provides chat and functionality with Android 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 platform devices.
The combination of Viewer and Broadcaster on Android allows the first mobile-to-mobile functionality available on the market.
We welcome your feedback on our newest mobile offerings at beta@ustream.tv. For more information, go to ustream.tv/mobile

Thanks for these free apps on Android! I would be pleased to pay a fee for them — especially if it helps you improving them. “Open source” does not necessarily mean “free lunch”
As far as I am concerned, the Broadcaster works quite well but I don’t know how to handle the chat and could not find any help in the application or elsewhere. Is there a dedicated help site, FAQ or forum out there yet?
The Viewer is still a work in progress. Many live streams don’t work (the video format is not recognized) and even on a strong Wifi connection, when they do work, streams are intermittent (works for 2 seconds, is freezed for 5 seconds, works for 3 seconds, is freezed for…).

I’ve downloaded the app to my HTC Hero (on Sprint). I try and watch the top viewed stream (SFShiba puppycam), and I get an error telling me this “video format of this show is not yet supported”. Pretty lame if you ask me, for the number one stream to be unavailable. I get audio, but no video.
