Download airsync and doublethink. Good apps. All via WiFi. It turns your device into a media server.

So I am still interested in people's opinion on this topic. I am thinking about getting a Media Link HD but I feel like I would be stupid to buy one. It seems to me like I have a phone with DLNA and a PS3 & LG BD390 that both have DLNA so why do I need another box?
Can anyone give me an idea how we could make the PS3 work like the Media Link HD? Thanks!
Does anyone know of an app that lets you stream from a DLNA device and program such as PS3 Media Server?
-^ i would like to know too. when i turn on my media share, the ps3 recognizes it, but when i open the folders there is nothing there.

When you're on it try hitting triangle and I think it might say display all or something like that.

I have a netgear router that comes with an app called netgear genie streams everything perfect the only thing it does not do is mirror the phone. A neat feature but not worth $75 to me to buy Media Link HD.

I watched a video comparing a vibrant to a my touch 4g and it was mentioned that they could be shared with the wii to watch videos on the tv. I searched google and xda and couldn't find what I was looking for. does anyone know how to accomplish this?i know there is all share which is a dlna client and I think screen share may be a similar app that could accomplish this but I haven't figured out how.

I wonder if there's a DLNA capable media player for Wii.
AllShare hasn't really worked for what I wanted to do with it. I've been using "Twonky" from the Market with my 360 instead but there's also a new there from Qualcomm called "Skifta". These 3 apps turn your phone into a DLNA server. One may work for you.
There's also the PlayOn windows app which is also a DLNA media server. I have found it to work well with my 360 as well. It can be found here: http://www.playon.tv/playon
If the Wii isn't capable of being a DLNA client like the 360 and the PS3 then I don't know how it could ever work. Good luck!
Hey guys I recently got a 32 inch flat screen which has an HDMI so I wanted to see photos and videos on my phone on there but I don't believe much has happened with TV out has it

If you have a ps3 hooked up to said tv and its (the ps3) on your home network you can download imediashare from the market and it will allow you to use your ps3's media server to display any photos and some movies that are on your phone wirelessly through your network. I believe an app named allshare will also work, this may also work if you have an xbox instead...I'm not positive b/c I dont own one but I believe they have media servers on them also, or if your tv has internet access and us hooked up to your local network, in that case it will work as well. But for me when I want to see pics on the big screen...i turn on tv, turn on ps3 click a few buttons and viola! Pics on the tv! I know its not the same as the tv out mod but either way if you have all those components whats the worst that happens...you download an app...dont like it and delete...no harm, no foul! Hope this helps!

Not a ps3 my TV has a USB spot and when I try to display what's on my phone it wont show
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I believe what you are looking for requires taking a couple different cables and modifying them to work...a far as I know the original usb cable that come with your phone does not have the pin out required to transmit video directly via usb. I remember reading something about the tv out mod a while back but I dont remember if they had any luck with it working...search the forum...i believe it was titled "tv out mod" our something like that but its not going to be as simple as plugging in your usb cable into the tv and having it pop up on the screen...i wish I had more info for ya but hopefully someone will chime in with some relevant info for ya.

It sounds like you're trying to get your TV to read your phone as a mass storage device. Kinda like a flash drive, but I don't know if your TV could detect the phone like that. Try plugging in the USB cable between the phone and TV, then turning on the 'mass storage' mode on your phone.

May not be big new to those who have owned a DLNA enabled phone before, but coming from HTC phones over the past few years, I wanted to share with Photon users/XBox owners. The Photon can act as a server for your music, videos and pictures...streaming them to your XBox. Anyone already doing this?
Not yet but I will be. Thanks for sharing that. ;-)

You can also do it from the gallery. Open the gallery app, tap the menu button, settings, tap media share settings, check media share and also check Support XBox. You will want to be connected to wifi. Your XBox doesn't have to be on wifi, but at the very least it needs to be connected to the same access point via Ethernet.
Yeah DLNA is pretty sweet. It will also work on your ps3. Just don't try and stream any HD videos or it will lag like a mug.

There is an app called imedia share that wotked decent on my evo and nexus s to my tv (samsung tv with allshare but no apps other than media play for usb and dlna support) which also allows you to stream youtube and facebook content.
Only reason to run it that way is plasma tv + ps3 does fair good with the electric bill people.

Hi
I have the sony s tablet, I want to push movies to my Sony Bluray player but my tablet can't find it. My PC finds the bluray ok.
Same here can't find Google TV or blue ray DVD

You have to be connected to the same network. Have you checked that?
If you are connected, then try to go music player, long press any song and options will appear, choose "throw", it'll search for device and should find your blu-ray player or TV

Does your google Tv support DLNA?
And which brand is your Blu-Ray or model?
I know silly question but it usually detects the devices immediately

I have the same problem:
the tablet keeps telling that no player has been found when trying to throw songs or pictures to my bravia kdl-40cx520 (ethernet connected). Does the tv need the wifi dongle to be scanned by the tablet? or dlna is independent and a complete different thing?
Thanks for your help
Hey guys
I was wondering if there is an app or some other way of accessing the movies etc on my PC at home when I'm not there using my tab? Say I'm at work using the wifi there is there some way of connecting to my shared folder on my home PC and streaming through the internet back to my galaxy tab?
All help greatly appreciated to relieve my boring breaks with a TV episode

Team viewer worked great on my nook color for controlling my PC from anywhere. Just had to set it up on both the PC and nook. Easy and free in the market.
Never tried it on the tab though.

It gave me total control of my PC.... Showed my screen almost like remote desktop. Freaked the kids out when I took control of the mouse from anywhere. lol
Edit: Just noticed you wanted to stream some TV shows. Don't know if that would be clunky or not.

The only problem is using Teamviewer you would need to set a prefixed password and username on it as it generates random per session so would be best. Also it needs to be on, closing teamviewer on your PC means you cut off the communication. Also it doesn't require a high end internet as teamviewer by default drops the quality and turns off wallpaper's and such per connection to enhance speed to navigate vs graphics.

That's fine my PC is on 24/7 anyway so that wouldn't be a problem.. if it sacrifices graphics for speed do you think maybe its not gonna be suitable for what I need it for?

Think you can set a password to use all the time in options, but it's been awhile since using. So could be wrong, but never remember having a random password. But yes I do remember having to have the PC on, but believe I could still wake it.
Again, I've not used my nook color for some time with this. So give an old man a break if I'm wrong.

Server runs on Linux, Mac or PC. I have a Linux server running so I can't tell you how good the Windows port is.
I have never used it for an outward facing connection though it is designed to work that way. I have it running on my old Dinc, Kindle Fire and the G-Tab. Video streaming works very well.

In my opinon it is all about the bandwidth. Some (HD) Movies need up to several megabit per second...
A solution is to use a VPN connection to the home network and a UPnP-AV server/client.
I use Twonky and BubbleUPnP, but only in my LAN. With a VPN and sufficient bandwith on the connection this would do the job over the internet, too.

With a little planning you could upload the video files that you want to be able to access to Dropbox, Minus or whatever Google offers that is similar. Then all you would have to do is access the files from your tab. If you have enough bandwidth for video, it should work great.
Check it out and let us know if my idea works for your needs.

I have had cerberus installed on my PC for a long time, it allows you to use your PC as an FTP server.
This way you can have access to your chosen files anywhere with the internet. On your mobile most file explorers have a FTP option to move files to or from the PC.
Its handy to have access to all your music, or maybe use it the other way to backup your photos ect when away from home for a extended period.
you could also stream over FTP if your file explorer allows you to map the FTP server as a local drive
