Do you need content to come from google play - Nexus Q General

To stream media < music , movies > to the q? Could you store media on the q and play it or store content on a device and still stream to the q and get the real time media que on your device?
Also can it download the netflix app and stream to the tv through the q ?
And does it have micro SD ? thanks
And yes I did google but I'm having a hard time finding these answers

Stock:
Content only comes from Google Play's Cloud.
Hacked:
Look at the youtube videos and other threads showing the Q doing pretty much everything a normal Android can do. Only caveat is that controlling the Q is a bit esoteric still.
No SD slots.

Pics & Videos on TV

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.

Streaming Play Store Movies?

I have a Nexus 7 and I want to stream some of the videos I have purchased through the Play Store to my TV using dlna. The problem I have is that when I "pin" my content so it stays on my device the movies do not show up in the video folder so dlna apps can play them. Does anyone know how to fix this?

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.

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.

How to try this :
copy your movies file into your S4 and install MX Player Pro, and start play your movie with MX Player Pro.
mx player pro support many video format
I like VLC Stream & Convert. It works great over home/wifi network & 4G if you have a VPN set up on your network. This app, once setup properly gave me the least problems & was the most consistent.

Unable to play google music on bubbleupnp

The app keeps barking that it could not find a registered device. How on earth do i register the google music app on my android phone. It is installed and running on my phone. So, i assume it is registered, but bubbleupnp thinks my phone is not a registered device for this app. It was the main reason i paid for this app.
Could anyone offer a tip?

Try to switch to YouTube Music while you can because google music will shut down anytime now.

I don't think so unfortunately, you can read that : https://reddit.com/r/YoutubeMusic/comments/hhg308/bubble_upnp_will_it_support_ytm/
But do it anyway, it has already started, it will save your library so you don't lose all of your song

Is there a way to stream pandora, spotify, etc from my android phone to an external renderer (my hifi bluray/sacd player) with bubbleupnp? I don't want to pay for Qobuz or tidal which bubble permits. I am currently using bubble to push music files from my NAS to this bluray/sacd player (dlna). But, i have not figured out a way to stream music from free services like pandora etc from my phone to this player. I use pandora, google play music, etc to find new music.
Any tip you offer is much appreciated.

Well idk which protocol YT music support but you can cast music to other devices like google homes, Chromecast, but that's it. Hope the way you've found will keep working
