[Q] how to use DLNA? - HTC EVO 3D

Dos anyone knows how to use DLNA with connected media app on E3D? I have a PS3 and bluray player that DLNA enabled but I can't use the connected media app when it searches for player it doesn't find anything. I can use the media share app and my ps3 and bluray player sees the phone but I find that complicated way of streaming media from my phone. So any ideas how to make this thing work? Thanks.

Media share app complicated? It's so easy and that's what you're going to have to use my friend or download an app off the market. In media share app, just check the share box, choose which folders on your SD cars to share, music, DCIM, VIDEOS, ETC. AND BOOM!!

And boom? Lol funny. What if I have close to 100 videos and thousands of music? That connected media app there for a reason and I want to know how it works.

DLNA outside of Gallery App

I am able to show photos and videos on my computer through the Gallery App. But Gallery doesn't see a lot of my video files. I use MX Video Player to view movies but it doesn't support DLNA. Anyone know of a way or another video player that can use DLNA and play onto a computer? I have an HTPC setup and don't want to move files around.
I know I can connect my phone as a drive but I'd rather not have to connect any wires. I've tried Sambra file sharing but that needs root and the temp roots don't play nice with it.
Imediashare on the market works with my ps3. You just have to put the files in the proper location on the phone.....

Thanks for the suggestion but it's not working for me. My phone can't see my computer, and my computer can't see my phone. There must be something I am missing in the app. I know my computer is set correctly because I can stream from Gallery, but the app just refuses to see it.
I will play with it a little, and get back to you. Also, you might powercycle your modem, just a suggestion.

my phone CAN'T see my pc either. it sees my PS3, though, but never the PC, which is really annoying because DLNA works for everything else. PS3 sees the PC fine, too.
I use twonky and imedia share.

[Q] Playing movies from Amaze to PS3

How do I play movies, without the MHL adapter, from my Amaze to my ps3? Thanks in advance! I tried using the "Connected Media" app that came with the phone but it scans and never finds my PS3.
You have to have the videos in .MP4 format. Make a folder on your memory card or internal storage. Call it PS3. Within the PS3 Folder, make another folder called Videos. Put the videos in there.
so it'll be like
Memory card/Internal Storage -> PS3 -> Videos
Use the imediashare app thru wifi works great for YouTube and videos on your phone and format doesn't matter most videos play. The only thing I can't figure out is how to play the market movies or rentals I really want to figure out a way because the prices are less for rentals then ps3 store or the Xbox live store.

Music app that allows me to stream from shared music library on NAS

Hello everyone,
This might be a dumb question, but I have searched and never came up with anything.
I am looking for a music application for android that will allow me to stream from my music library that is on my NAS. I can share my music via CIFS/SMB, NFS or iTunes server.
Any help will be very much apreciated.
Thanks,

Having a panasonic top notch smart tv, I am also wondering how to do this. Would suck if it only worked on samsung devices which I am starting to wonder
You might have to change some settings but i can access networked dlna devices just from the stock gallery app. I get a separate album for each device...

I have LG3d TV.
1. playing video on the LGTV using allshare play on GSIII was a no problem
2. MEDIA players servers to play on LGTV were also no problem
but playing MEDIA player SERVERS to play on my Mobile device ( GSIII), I wonder how?..
I always use bsplayer for streaming movies from my hd to phone.

Is your hd frm other device external to your mobile phone?

Update: its just as simple as it is..
Requirements:
1. Wireless network
2. Media Servers (I use nero Media Home or Plex Media Server)
3. Wireless/Mobile Device smart phone (GSIII) or Smart TV (LG LW5700).
1. Open and start Stream Media Server
2. Import Videos SD or HD
3. Open Default Video Player of SIII then
4. tick scan for nearby devices
5. Wait till scan finishes (processing...)
6. Tick the movie you want to play
That's all Thank you..
additional note: in my experience GSIII is having trouble to scan the videos on the media server at first
then found them after during several scanning tries but once it loaded the video you can watch them with ease.
I dont know if it was a setting on my router or the media server thats making it hard to scan the videos.
if there are other methods it would be glad to share your inputs.

Upnp/dlna Android app capable of streaming mkv

Hi all, would of put this in android general but can't seem to see it :-\
Anyway, I'm looking for the above, a uonp/dlna compatible app that is capable of streaming mkvs to a ps3.i can play them on my phone via mx player and the like but when it comes to streaming it fails, unsupported or corrupted data shows in the ps3 whenni know for a fact it can stream Mkvs. I have tried airsyncs airplay option, skifta and joses media server and none seem to work, anyone any ideas or other options I can try?
I'm running ParanoidAndroid and Siyah/twrp if that's any help.
Thanks in advance
And mods if there is a general android section and I've missed it feel free to move this

hey had this problem a while back, after a lot of experimenting with different apps, it turns out none of the apps could successfully "beam" a mkv file, even if both the phone and xbox can support the file.
The workaround that i finally got to was to host a media server from the phone, and access the mkv file via the server. APP: Pixel-DMS.
Works great on my xbox !! should work on the ps3 as well
BubbleUPnP might.

Have you tried this ArkMC DLNA UPnP Media Center app.It really helps me a lot Because it allows us to easily access, stream, share, manage and enjoy multimedia content, such as pictures, music and videos throughout myhome network.Give it a try.Here is the Playstore
Im looking for something that works the opposite actually, Does anyone know of an app that will allow streaming from a pc to my galaxys3?
I used to use allshare when i was running official samsung rom, but now i use Paranoid android and unfortunately cannot use it anymore.
I use a program called ps3 media server, which allows any content even MKV files to be streamed, ps3 media server is veiwable on ps3, xbox 360 and i could see it and use it on allshare.
now all i need is an app to allow me to pick up this media server on my paranoid setup.
any suggestions? thanks. :fingers-crossed:
I use PS3MediaServer in conjunction with Serviio to steam to my Xbox and phone.
1. Download PS3MS and Serviio on PC
2. Stream to gaming console. For streaming to android, download Skifta or ServiGo on Play. You can manage your Serviio console from your droid using ServiiDroid.
MKV works flawlessly.

iMedia Share can do it. Also stock samsung video player can do it too.

My home environment is:
Laptop - with Windows Media Player and Foobar2000 as servers
Tablet (galaxy tab) - with ArkMC as controller, server and player.
Samsung TV (as player and renderer)
I had an issue - I was not able to "Play-to" and to share MKV files!
I have tried just siple renaming MKV to AVI, after this trick it was possible to use "Play-to" to send file to my TV. And it played back well.
Maybe this would work for you.

ArkMC can use 3rd party players. I use Mobo Player and MX Player. So it supports MKV formats to. And ArkMC server can share MKV files to.
Plex media server

No, it can´t. It can play avi but not mkv, 3gp or flv.
I am still lookin for solution to stream mkv files via Android to PS3.
I installed Bubble UPnP - PS3 can see it, but everytime I want to go to some videos, pictures or music, PS3 is giving 2101 DLNA Error (can´t even see the list of my multimedia)
PS3 is on the newest offcial ROM and router is D´Link Dir-600 - if that´s matter.
Any ideas?

PS3 is not able to play MKV natively without transcoding. You must use a transcoding server like PS3 Media Server, Serviio, etc.
Odp: Upnp/dlna Android app capable of streaming mkv
Yes i know, i am using media serwer on my laptop and i stream mkv files, however when i stream movies, my laptop is over heating and shut down (is hot as hell) after an hour or so. Laptop is dual core 1.6 and the thermal paste on cpu is probably out. So i wanted to stream those movies via note 2. I thought there was an application with internal transcoding possibility like it's in media share on pc. So is it possible or not?
Sent with GT-N7100 via Tapatalk 2
Did anyone have a fix for this? The Note 2 ought to be able to do this.
Wondering if anyone found a way to transcode mkvs from a phone to be played on a ps3.
I'm yet to find one to be honest, I think plex did work but no longer seems to for whatever reason

I would suggest you ArkMC. It streams media files not only locally on your device, but also from your Smartphone to HD TV, MAC, PC, AllShare TV, Xbox360, PS3 or any other DLNA/UPnP devices. Love it!
ArkMC streaming media

I am using ArkMC. too. What I really like is that it supports many formats of video files.
Also the feature that I use the most is YouTube integration. You can use your phone as a controller and watch videos on a big screen:good:
I have bubble full version I downloaded arkmc which ultimately uses bubble what my question is how to view streaming videos on the P's3 because it recognizes bubble as a media server and only allows me to browse to my files rather then stream them
