I would like to share video from my computer / sgs2 on the tab. I cannot find a way to launch allshare although the internet suggests this should be possible. Sending files via Bluetooth doesn't seem to work, either and the 2 devices have a lot of problems finding each other. What is the best way to play video stored on my phone wirelessly on the tab?

I'm using a TVersity Media Server on my desktop and Skifta on my tablet to stream music and video (using Dice Player). Works very well, at least for my 720p tv series.
I use TVersity straight to my tab's browser.
+1 for Tversity, and i use UpnPlay for the viwer
since plex is not working anymore i now use emit.... works great for me
i want to test this option also in the future:

i also tried to connect via a file explorer, but could not setup a connection because i dont have/want a password on my windows 7 account(s)

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!

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
My Desktop PC has a TV car in it and I record and watch shows through it, at the moment I can stream the recorded TV shows and other videos to my Nexus 10 using ES File Explorer.
However I am curious to find out if there is a way of streaming the live TV as it plays on my Desktop PC, over the wi-fi to my Nexus 10?
I know VLC player has some streaming capabilities with TV cards.. don't know how effective this will be?
Is their an easier way, other programs designed for this?
I do use TV Catchup app on my tablet to watch live TV sometimes but I would like a solution that is just utilizing the wi-fi and not the internet connection!
Cheers.

I would think a media extender app would be more useful. Like the how the xbox 360 app works. That would take care of the storage issue and the copy protection. Anyone know of one or a reason that wouldn't work?
1. Remote Media Center App + Remote Potato: Have not tried it and it may not be compatible with jellybean 4.2 according to the reviews.

2. XBMC will connect to hdhomerun tuners but you will need to provide a file with a list of channels for your particular cable provider.
http://www.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13220
Xbmc can connect to various backend tv servers (android app are still beta), like mediaportal tv server, and you don't need any additional files provided that you setup tv server right. Other option are using mediaportal and ampdroid app, but you have to setup mediaextender program in addition, on pc.

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.

Can anyone recommend an app to stream content from my PC to my S4? Really interested in movies since I have google music for my music. So I'm just looking for a good app to stream movies and videos that I have on my laptop, to my S4 over wifi and 4G. Thanks

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.
