Hi all,
I'm new to Android and am now a proud owner owner of the SGS2 (bye bye Nokia N97 ).
Is there any way my consoles can see the S2 folders when connected through USB?
Many thanks in advance.
The PS3 could read the file system on the SGS1. I haven't test it with the SGS2 but it's easy enough to test. Just connect the SGS2 to PS3 in USB mode then go to music/video and select the USB storage (triangle->display all).
I have tried to connect to both, the PS3 says usb device not recognised and xbox sees that a device is plugged in but cant find any files...
Whilst not totally what you're asking for you can actually stream video and audio to the Xbox and PS3 through DLNA. Samsung have bundled the AllShare app for it and it seems to work pretty well.

On your phone go to: Settings > Wireless and Network > USB Utilities > Connect storage to PC
Or use doubletwist airsync

How is this done on xbox? Do I need to add anything or do it via laptop?
Will it stream mkv and avis via xbox?
The XBox has a DLNA client, so you should be able to stream direct from the phone to the XBox using AllShare or similar.
The XBox will only play formats that it can play itself, though. DLNA streaming just streams the file, the phone won't do any format conversions.

PS3 is the same. Unfortunately it won't play videos shot by the SGS2 as they are 3GPP.

My video's recorded by the SGS2 are in .mp4 format.

The filename on mine say that as well but when it is buffering to stream it says 3gpp which IIRC is a profile of mp4.
Thanks for the replies guys...
Connected to both with USB using Bawezy's answer and they both recognized the S2.
The Xbox show videos as mp4 and the PS3 won't play them at all, I guess the latter sees them in their 3gpp format.
Couldn't get the Allshare to work with the Xbox, the S2 sees the Xbx but I don't know how to see shared files, not yet tried with PS3.
I'm looking for a program that will convert videos made on GSII to playable on PS3
Any idea ???
Of course - working on GSII
What format are your videos?
Ps3 Quick way: Enable usb debugging on phone. Connect to ps3. Once connected, enable mass storage on phone.
Then Go to Videos on ps3, and press triangle on the USB, click 'display all'.
You have all your folders to see. The files that aren't compatible won't be displayed.
So far I've not been able to play MKV files. Not sure about 3gp.
And about DLNA streaming. You could try that with downloading iMediashare or Skifta from the market for free. I use iMediashare.

i just set up a netflix account. i'm wondering how i can get movies on my phone and have them play on my tv? is this possible??? i plug it into the usb port on my tv and it doesn't show up. tried it into my bluray player also, still didn't show. switched the usb to disk mode, still nothing. any help would be great. thanks!
nevermind, just realized the usb isn't actually any kind of video output so its not possible unless i have a wifi gaming console or something. close thread if need be... thanks.
check the applications on your blu-ray player, it's possible that the unit itself can access your neftlix instant queue
As ricky states some blu-ray players have in there menu netflix installed. If the blu-ray player has built in wifi adapter connect to your wireless router and you are ready to go. If the player is wifi ready but no adapter you can get ethernet wireless adapter and use your PC to configure to connect to your router. Then plug into USB port on blu-ray player and you can stream Netflix with the player menu by selecting Netflix. Most of the newer blu-ray players have this capability.

Hey,
im searching for an app thats "beams" my media files to the PS3.
I tried Twonky Server, Imediashare and some others and they all work, so i can see all the files from my device on the PS3. But the Problem is, i have to take the PS3 Controller to open/play the files. Is there an App that let me control the "open-process" via my DHD or Flyer?
I can choose the player in Twonky Server, but i cant see my ps3 :S Am i doing something wrong?

Hey,
I am about to buy the Tablet S and have searched google for a while but haven't found any real world experiences with using the DLNA to XBOX.
Has anybody done this and what were the results?
Does the Tablet just come up as a media server on the XBOX?
Thanks!

In my experience the DLNA on the tab is client (incoming) not (server) outgoing. i.e music sever set up on laptop I can play song on tab, or from xbox i can stream from laptop.
BUT NOT from Tablet Itself. So unless theres a media server (or similar) app then not possible with standard software???

There are a number of DLNA server applications available on the Google Play Store which can be used to turn the Sony into a DLNA Media Server. I don't have an Xbox to test, but it should then appear.
Hello,
On my pc, i use ps3 media server to serve video to others devices. I want to receive videos on my android tablet from ps3 media server. My pc and my tablet are connected to my router. What are the android apps can be able to receive video from ps3 media server? I want still to use ps3 media server but I wish to know what android apps are compliant with.
Thanks !
