[QUESTION] media sharing - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello
is there any way by which i can use my HD2 for media sharing across a wireless home network?
the remote desktop app is the closest to achieving that but that is not exactly MEDIA SHARING.
for example, my nokia n95 8 gb has a media sharing option, by which my computer and my PLAYSTATION 3 could read (and play) all the media files from my phone, and vice versa.
so, can the HD2 do something like this?
thanks

this was designed for an Omnia but you can try it:

EDIT: it supposedly works on the HD2 with the proper configuration

thanks a lot i'll give it a shot.

[Closed] Searching tester for Media Center Control closed beta

The betatest is closed. Thank you!
Hi,
I'm the developer of Media Center Control. With this remote control for your Windows Mobile device you can control your Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center. It's designed for Windows 7, but it works for Windows Vista Media Player also. On Windows Vista there is no Media Center support. To use it with your Media Center, Windows 7 is a must have.
Media Center Control isn't only a normal remote control. It's more a port of the Media Center UI to your smartphone. You are able to browse the media content on your phone and then start playback/recording on your PC. It's possible to control music, movies, photos and tv broadcast on your phone. Media Center Control establishes a connection to your PC via Bluetooth - which is very power saving - or via TCP/IP (Wifi for example). It's also possible to browse your EPG over the internet and then schedule records. Watch the screenshot to get a quick overview of what it is.
Now I'm searching beta tester for the closed beta test. What you will need to help me testing:
- Windows 7 (Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center)
- Windows 7 Media Center for TV/EPG features
- Windows Mobile 6.x device with bluetooth and/or WiFi
- It's highly recommed to use bluetooth because it's much more power saving than WiFi. You will need a bluetooth enabled PC and WM device to use this connection type.
If you are interested to help testing and your device configuration met the requierments, please post a comment here or leave a private message. I then will give you more instructions for registering as a beta tester.
Thanks in advance!
Hey n1 2 see someone takes care of this prob!
Many iPhone apps on market but no useful and touchfriendly win prog.
I see in HD2/Leo area many threads about this question. I think many members will be happy. I make some links
MaTT
sounds nice. I am a heavy user of WM7 media center
*push*
Betatester around the world wanted!
I'd like to try this app.
I'm a Media Center User since 2004 version (now on windows 7) and own an Hd2.
Bye
I've got a window 7 media center machine with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard (and a bluetooth dongle which I can pair with my phone)
And a touch pro 2 running energyrom so I'd be glad to test this.
Hi,
I am also interested, I am running a windows 7 Media Center (accessible through WiFi) and a Windows 7 standard-installation accessible through bluetooth (MC might be upgraded with bluetooth, but dongle is currently making some problems). My mobile has both bluetooth and Wifi
Sincerely

Hey,
I am also interested in beta testing. My "server" is running Windows Media Center 7 (64bit) and is streaming live-TV to an xbox and Linksys Extender. It would be great to easliy access all the media with my phone and the most appreciate function would the EPG one. Really looking into that.
I have a HTC HD2 running CleanEX HyperROM Ultimate v11.5.
I hope you will let me test the app for you ^^.
Me 2 whant to help you, us
Hi,
i want also help to testing the program too. I use Windows 7 Professional 64 with Media Center. My Cellular is a HD2.
Greetz MonsyX
Happy to help, have Vista media centre, windows 7 laptop and 2 xbox 360 all liken to stream from my vista base machine.
tester
i would like to give you my help by testing this app.
i have different pc's with windows 7 32bit and own a hd2.
good luck anyway! hope the gui is smooth!
Any news about this app?
Any release date 4 all?
Sounds really cool. I'm a long time Media Center user since the early days of XP MCE. Currently running Win 7 Media Center X64 on a dedicated HTPC in my living room. If you still need beta testers (I own a HD2) you can count me in.
I, if you need i'm here to help
Hd2 owner with w7 media center (3 Computer with w7) and also HTC Diamond and Vista if needed.
do you plan epg integration?
I'm willing to help beta test. WM7x64 with a TP2 running my own rom. I have a bluetooth dongle somewhere around here, but Wifi would be my preffered choice (meaning I can test both).
Edit: I love the way the UI looks.
Thank you very much, but in the moment no more tester are requiered.
I have 3 W7 media centers in my house would LOVE to help test this ..
Would want to try too.
Multiple W7 Ultimate machines and my Sony X1
Hi,
how is the development going ?
I would really apprechiate to test this app, sadly I missed your post in Time.
(I have Win 7 Home Premium/Ultimate as well as various wm-devices).
Do you already have any idea when the app will be released to public ?
Greetings

[Q] Streaming PCTV???

I was wondering, and yes, I have searched, but is it possible to stream pctv from your pc to Android, the easy way? There are guides telling how to use VLC to stream tv, guides that involves using windows media encoder, suggestions about using Orb live, wich just doesn't do it for me and even suggestions using the expensive slingbox.
I used to have mytinytv ( http://www.mytinytv.com/ ) on my PC wich did a really amazing job. The client, however, is only available for windows mobile, how ironic. I've changed the streaming profiles with windows media encoder 9 and achieved really high SD quality on my HD2 over 3g, yes, just 3g. The only downside with the client was that you could not easily zap trough the channels, as the tv server scanned all the channels but not letting you reorder it. Anyhow, it worked great, great quality and 30fps.
What is possible?
Mytinytv install file is still available on their site, however, the latest forum activity was about a year ago or so, so, hardly no progress anymore.
Is it possible to develop such a program for android? Or, is it just possible to create an android client for it? the client should be able to connect to the server using login credentials, give commands back to the tv server, i.e. changing channels and stream it using the built in streaming player of android.
Have a look at orb dot com (can't post link as I'm new, Hello all)
Basically, program runs on PC, connects you to a website, this then streams all your movies/songs to other devices.
I used to use it on my PS3 and iphone, fairly sure it will work on Android also.
Can also connect through the internet so can access it from work etc.

[Q] Output all Audio of Android on PC via Wifi (not DLNA or UPNP Streaming)

Hello there,
Is there an app that can route the audio output of my android smartphone/tablet to my PC? I was googling and searching this forum for this topic quite some time, but all I found was the other way arround. From PC to android is not that urgent for me, since I mounted all my network files with cifs.ko to my phone. Although there seems to be something called Pulseaudio. To be more specific - as mentioned in the title - I am not looking for a dlna/upnp solution, because there are some situations where this is not working, i.e. the audio output of applications like grooveshark.
Of course there are a lot of remotes out there: unified remote, awarremote for winamp, gsremote for grooveshark and so on. They are pretty awesome, but sometimes it is quite cumbersome to switch the remote app all the time.
Let me describe the situation I have in mind. You are listening to an audiobook on your phone with your beloved audiobook app (audible in my case) and come home. Then you activate the WifiAudioApp and it connects to your PC and the audio is now playing on your pc speakers.
I am no developer, but I think something like this would be possible, if someone could fool android to believe that it paired with an bluetooth speaker set. But in fact it is an app, that puts audio over Wifi to a client programm on your PC (certainly only possible on a rooted phone). Don't know if this is possible.
There seems to be a gadget, which offers something in this direction:
http://androidcommunity.com/android-gets-airplay-like-streaming-via-xbounds-20111122/
But I am not that interested in video, just audio.
If anyone has suggestions for me, I would really appreciate them.
Best regards,
Bel.
P.S. I think, this would be a great application. To all developers out there: At least you would have one client, who would pay for an app like this. Certainly, there would be more.
it's a great idea!
i'm also have "robo" smartphone and i love listening to music. i have got some mp3-BoomBox which is connected to my Notebook via 3.5mm.
i can listen to music from Android smartphone on notebook via Bluetooth, but also i know that it is possible via wi-fi!
somebody please help us! without any expensive gadgets like ^^^
sorry for my english
I'm looking for an app/ method that can do this and I have found two ways to do this so far;
Method 1:
- Create a directory on my computer to be used only for music that I want on my device.
- Select this directory only for Winamp computer program to search for content in.
- Set up any playlists, preferences, titles etc on the computer program.
- Sync to Winamp app on my device.
If you configure the app and program to sync anytime the device is using the same wireless network (wireless syncing is a great feature of Winamp that actually works, unlike Kies) you will have the same music collection available on both your phone and computer.
Method 2:
- Use Gmote app to remotely control the media content on your pc (you need the PC download, too).
This method is very primitive and can only play files as they appear and not playlists however this can be remedied by creating a directory containing only the files you want to play.
Best I've found so far.

I'm turning an S3 into home multimedia center/DLNA device, help please

Ok I have a spare S3 which i'm not going to use, so i plan to plug it to a TV via HDMI and use it as a multimedia center.
So from what i can see I need 2 things.
1. good app to wirelessly sync files between PC, Tablet, Smartphone and the S3 (option to stream media from the PC would be great as well)
2. A program to remote control the S3 from my other android smartphone
any other advise for the setup is welcome
no suggestions whatsoever? :>
Final attempt to get some advises
i don#t know of any app that is able to handle both, but as a start you might look at xbmc, wich actually is a media center, also avaliable for android.
i'd give you links to sites where you can download it (it's still in beta), but i have not enough posts to do so. you should google XBMC android chip.de
or
xbmc android androidpit
or somtething like this.

[Q] How to stream videos to PC?

Hi Everyone,
I am googling for some time now but can not find easy solution to my problem.
I got some videos on my S3 (it is mainly about the ones (for the future) freshly recorded.
I would love to be able to stream them to my Windows 8 PC (Windows Media Player preferably) in order to show them to bigger public.
Example:
My Son was skiing first time today. I took some clips. later on at home every one wanted to see them. I had my Asus TF810c with 11" screen with me so it was obvious that it will be more comfortable for all to watch on bigger screen.
Both devices were on the same WiFi network (created by mobile router), I was trying to "play" with WiFi direct - nothing worked
Is there an easy way to do it?

Not an option.
On a slow broadband (in my case in weekend house we got 0,5 mbps gsm one) it would take ages to upload and ages to download.
I wanted to use local WiFI to do it.
Now I suppose the issue was with limited abilities of mobile router we were using. Just got home and on my landline broadband and stand alone router it worked like charm. S3 is visible as media server and in built in player there is option (once media are shared) to "scan for nearby devices" and pc is visible (in WMP is running). So playback can be started both from S3 (if WMP has "Allow for remote control" option on) and from WMP it self as S3 is visible as network library.
So again - it must be WiFi router fault I could not do it before.
SORTED! Close please!

You need to have options for Streamig Media enabled in your Windows Media Player. I think they are not on by default.
Once that is done, you should be able to see PC on your Android device as a device you can share your media to.
I no longer have S3 (to annoying device for me) as I got myself Lumia 920, so I can not provide you with mode retaild info.
But on Lumia it works in a very similar way.
Hi the easiest way I'd suggest is to use Airdroid.....its a simple app which lets you see everything on your phone through a web browser....provided you are connected via the same wifi network...
