Hi all, Im able to wirelessly show my photos from my phone to my Sony Bravia tv, but it wont play my MP4 videos. The funny thing is, if I put my MP4 videos to a flash drive and plug the flash drive to the tv, it will play them. Is there another app that would stream my videos to the television?
What app are you using now? There are tons of apps in the market for this, iMediaShare is one of them.

Hello,
Witch player is able to play movies with srt subtitles on, and also to play it from the sd card directly?
Anyone?
try MX Video Player. it is said to be working with both sd-card and subtitles.
Have not tried it myself yet. still need an sd-card

Mx video player works with sd card and for streaming videos from your network. You need to add sdcard2 as one of the sources in settings. Hope it helps

So does Mobo, and is far to more customizable.

Thanks. How do you connect to the network drives please. I tried mobo with bubbleupnp and it wouldn't play avi files.

You can try ES file explorer and tapping on the LAN tab. Then add the server you're trying to play the files from and you can then tap on a file to play and choose to open with moboplayer.
I am using MOBO player. It's working great. Free and easy to configure.

BS player has hardware acceleration and works great on Tablet S. I think it supports SD-cards, but not sure. The .srt subtitles work great though. It also has a function that searches subs for you online. No more searching!

I use a similar setup as you. For my file manager I use HD file explorer for honeycomb and set up my network through the lan connection. Then I play the videos through MX player and music through Mobo. Some videos play better than others depending on the format but for the most part it works well. What I like about HD file manager is you can access everything from your network drive and it easy to setup. I just wish there was a way to create a play list for music files from my NAS without transferring files to my SD card. Any ideas on this?
Try CineXplayer I have had any issues also locates files for u when opening so no need to manually find files. No ads full screen no stuttering videos. Good quality picks up where you leave off in videos if stopped while viewing when opened back up.
Yes mobo player is pretty sweet, free and clean looking a must download if u wanna watch movies n things.
MX player does both (SD card, SRT titles) flawlessly. So impressed I bought the ful version.
no stop in mxplayer?
How can you stop video from playing in Mxvideo?
I do not see any stop button?

just tap the screen and there should appear reverse, pause and forward. just press pause´. There is no actual stop button.
u can change that in the settings actually I believe (i.e. always show controls). Can't imagine why its necessary, you want full screen video normally don't you?
Strange. So when I start a 3 hour video and notice after 5 mins that I have seen it...I need to look it to the end as I can not stop it. I need to try mobo....
Piar The vídeo A nd sub in the folder in self and rename The archive The same name grates

Just got pushed the new Market Movie app. Took one of the $.05 offers, launched the new Google Movie player and get a Force Close error immediately. Uninstalled the player, re-installed. No joy.
Works fine on my Bionic !
Thoughts?
Thanks
Same here, bought a movie to watch on the plane but every time I try to mark it for offline viewing I get force close. Seems ok on mt gnex though

I haven't tried renting yet but when I try to play a video from my personal collection it says video cannot be played after about 3seconds of the video, I think that is an issue with the sony video player as that is what is used to launch it. Have u guys tried installing the stock Android video app, maybe that will work?
Google movies can only be played in the 'PLAY MOVIE' google app.

So when you click play it doesn't try and launch the video in the Sony Video player? It is strange that when you go to play a video from that app that is on the internal storage that it tries to launch a different app then if it has the video playing capabilities built in.
I haven't rented a Google movie yet to test that aspect myself, I was just commenting on the app not being able to launch internally stored video properly.
Correct. Google movies play within the Play Movie player only.
good to know
Good info to have. I have yet to rent a movie, but good to know ahead of time how to play it.
Its the google player that keeps force closing

is there an app that i can rip a movie/video off the 'net and put it on my Gnote's mem card for future viewing?
Firefox has an add-on on my PC where i can download any vid that is playing on my browser, wondering if the same is possible for my Gnote
I use avs video converter. You have to pay for it but you have access to all their other apps such as audio converter.

to be more specific, is there an app that can rip a video i am watching on my Gnote (rip it from a streaming movie service for instance?)
The only one that I am aware of is TubeMate. But it only works with YouTube. I use it all the time to copy YouTube vids to my SD card. I'm not aware of any apps that will allow ripping vids from the browser though.
well that's a start, thanx tmc!
now i can install some cool youtube movies, maybe this one if it is legal to do so:

i find no app called TubeMate in the app store :-\
EDIT** ahh found the amazon appstore and installed that to, lotta new stuff to look at!
VBrowser will detect and download videos from flash plugins on a lot of sites.

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...

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.
Ok here is the problem I am having. Im using my PC in my office as a media server. I am able to connect with my DNA and pull up all my videos with ease. Thing is not all my videos are in .mp4 format majority are in .avi. I am able to see the thumbnails of the videos but when I play them it says cannot be played. So on the side there is an option where you can search for wifi players. Tried that and even though I have video apps like mobo, vlc, and mx video installed. HTC doesn't recognize these options as wifi players. So should I convert these movies to .mp4? Im trying not to because most are HD movies over a gig each.

Clear the defaults for your stock video player and tap on the movie you want while using a file explorer then pick what player you want. The player option is for you to stream from your phone to a device that can hande the format, not an app on your phone.
