If u mean that u want to stream a movie from a PC, then i recommend Gmote 2. Really it's the best app for streaming music or videos from your PC.
HBO Go please! I'll be dancing for joy when an app is compatible with HC
tv show stream is good too
Plex is what you want. Direct transcoding from PC to tablet. Max is only 5000mbps bitrate but still very nice.

unfortunately tv show stream and movie stream were pulled from the market and arent being supported anymore but I have the APKs and tried them on my tab but when I try to open the links it says I need Xvid. I thought xvid was supported by the tab?
Amazon Prime works for streaming movies and whatever else they offer. I've only dabbled there, but the first 10 minutes of Highlander came through great on the tab.

HBOGO works via the webpage and HULU also works if your rooted and install the required file.
Netflix app supported at all?

Not right now. Sounds like it will come eventually though.

TV shows stream works fine on mine.. glad I kept a backup of the apk. Not so lucky on movies stream unfortunately, so I can't test it out.
I didn't think either were reliant on the decoding capabilities of the device, since it plays in the browser, but I've always had mobo player installed. Maybe try that?

+1000 for this. since getting my android phone, I have tried various methods for streaming from my home server. my buddy has the air media for his icrap which made me search even harder for a solution on my tablet. plex super easy to setup, I had an issue with port forward but that was because my router and UPnP would not let go of the port to enable the port forwarding.
all around great app for streaming.

Thank you, Plex works pretty well. My new 10.1 just became a hundred times more awesome. I've been using Sagetv dvr and have recorded a lot of tv shows. Now I can stream them to my Galaxy tab, cool.

I looked at it in the market and it says stream music nothing about video. Am I blind?
Also can anyone compare this to playon? Mainly the ability to rewind or fast forward the stream because playon can't do this and according to playons admins on their forum android is not capible or some crap which I'm sure is not true because Netflix and YouTube can manage to do it.

thanks man I had mobo but never actually opened it up. Your post made me look into it again and when I opened mobo it downloded the codec needed. Nice! now movie stream and tv stream work great. Too bad its unsupported for updates anymore.
Loved these aps and with a mega video login I was golden.
For streaming your own stuff:
UpnPlay app to stream Video and a videoplayer app for playback.
Firgured out I can attach a HDD to my router and fire up a router mediaserver - accessible from everywhere. But beware, your Server/Router MUST support video streaming else it's a no go. And don't forget to turn upnp on.
You can also use Twonky as a server tool for windows/linux.
For 720p you don't need a speedy WLAN, 2mb/s are enough. For 1080p it's ~3-3,5mb/s. So every NAS capable router should do it.

I have TV shows but it won't work. Can you post send or link me the apks?!?!?
PS. I have mobo.....
I have PLEX up and running and can stream audio with no issue but when I lunch a video it errors out. Any one have same issue??
so, there used to be a program called ORB that allowed you to stream audio/video/pictures from your home network devices to your evo4g; they stopped updating it awhile ago, and, it no longer works with 2.3.3
has anyone found a system/program, that allows you to stream stuff from your home DLNA compliant sources, to the EVO3d?
preferably, via 3g/4g, so it would work when you are away from your home wifi..
thanks so much!
Yes, it comes preinstalled on the EVO.. its called media server... When you click on gallery, you can touch the top bar and pick media server and it will search for available content...

unfortunately, it doesnt show any of the videos on my 2 DLNA compliant NAS boxes...
anyone else find anything?
thanks!
Try using iMediaShare, its a free app that works well on my PS3.
imedia share shows the nas boxes on my network, but, wont play any .mkv files, which is how I encode my bluray movies...
I guess I need a media player that plays .mkv files over the network...
I used iMediaShare with MoboPlayer and it plays mkv from DLNA sources. It stutter a little.

how do you get imedia share to use moboplayer?
I can't seem to get imedia share to see that I want to use moboplayer to play vids..
thanks!
I didn't have to do anything, it switched to MoboPlayer when I pick a mkv movie.
is the .mkv file on your phone, or on your home network server?
I need to see stuff on my home network server..
thanks
mkv is on my WDTV Live player. I'm streaming DLNA from the WDTV Live.
I was trying to stream with SMB to the Evo 3D but couldn't get it to work without it downloading the whole movie before it plays. My Archos 101 have no issue streaming 720p mkv through SMB.

I wish I could get Imedia to see my NAS drives, where I keep all my media stuff..
I used to use a program called Orb to stream stuff from my NAS boxes to my phone, and it worked like a charm, via 3/4g and wifi..unfortunately, they never updated the program to work with 2.3...
Oh well, I guess I will keep looking. thanks for your suggestions!
I'm still looking for a solution to stream 3g/4g. Currently I can only stream on the LAN. Let me know if you find something.
its not DLNA, but you might try subsonic
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.

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

Can your dlna tv see your phone? I dont have a dlna ready tv but, I have a PS3 and with the software "PS3 Media Server" running, I can see my i9300 on my PS3, thus I can access the videos in my phone over the PS3 via dlna. I think the setup is pretty straight forward, except you will be running your bubble app from your phone instead of a pc/laptop.
Hi,

I have TP-1042ND and conected HD with movies, my stock S3 player sees nearby device TP link media server and plays movies but without subtitles (they are in correct format as when i download movie to device with them plays ok)... Samsung Link don't see nearby device so can't use it... Only thing i can do i play movie from DLNA explorer via Mx player and then load subtitles form device when i downloaded them...

Yep, its a good posibility could be the DLNA server software too... because I know that Twonky didn't/wasn't able to serve the SRT to my Samsung TV in the very beginning. After several Twonky version it finally works (but it still won't play imbedded subtitles), and I haven't changed my Samsung TV or it's firmware.
However, BubbleuPNP and BSPlayer has always worked for me, best part is BSPlayer pays embedded as well as the external SRT.
Yes, it have to be problem with router... I installed bubble and bs... it works just like others players without subs even don't search them via online (i was hope it will be able to find them online as it have that option). Looks like media server does not serve the other files other than media files, subs are txt not a media... When you enter the bubble do you see your subs in folders? i can see only music and movies files... I Was try with BSplayer to enter in LAN mode... i run FTP server over the router, i can connect with gosthexplorer but BS asking me for the password and user name i enter correct one (use them in ghostexplorer) but it constantly show incorrect password... Any advice? Maybe in lan mode it can read the subs...
