I've come straight from SGS1, when using the allshare app on that I could see my phones files on my PC, PS3 etc and vice versa (all connected on my wi-fi). However I'm not sure how to do that on S3? On S1 my phone would come up as a media server on my Ps3 and I could browse all my files.

Download Samsung Allshare for pc http://www.samsung.com/global/allshare/pcsw/download/AllSharePCSW.exe
And sync with your S3 after install.
Sync with your stock samsung allshare app
Ok I'll do this, but does this enable me to see files in my phone from my PS3(as a media server in other words)?
Wow what a mess, wish I could use the old Allshare app. No installations required, just worked...

There is, i installed an app called iMediaShare from Google Play and it connects instantly with connected devices. Much better and faster way than Allshare.

Hey guys i was wondering what is the best app out there that will allow me to stream my movies and tv shows from my nas to my tab while im away from home. I know how to do port forwarding just cant find a app that will stream the media
Plex works really well! It converts on the fly if you have a PC next to your nas. Quality on your LAN is great! Quality on the WAN is so so but it works!
Thanks for the reply i have plex installed but it doesnt work outside of my home network on my tab. It works fine on my phone but not on my tab ( my tab is tethered to my phone to access the internet when im not home)
TVersity allows you to stream outside of your network. Quality is much better than on Orb or some of the others.
what app do you use for tversity i checked the market and nothing came up

I don't use an app. usually. I do it straight from the browser. You can enter an http address and pull up files or a flash file.
Alternatives are Vplayer, the Toshiba Media Player app available on XDA (works the best actually) and um..... one other one I forget. You just install TVersity on your PC and let it scan wherever your media is installed. Whether it be on your puter or an external.
I use J.River Media Center, the app is called "Gizmo" (just search in the market).
I'm able to control all my music in different rooms, workplace etc over the pad. Or stream it to the pad itself.

I use Plex over 3G on my Wi-Fi Tab tethered to my phone. I'm tethering via Wi-Fi, not USB. I have to store the remote IP address for the server Plex is running on in order for the app on the Tab to find it.
yeah i have my remote ip address saved and im teathered via wireless as well and i dont get a connection. My phone has the same remote ip address as well and it connects just fine. Ive also tried connecting to my vpn teathered and that doesnt work either, but my phone can connect without any problems
I have a QNAP 212 NAS and Galaxy Tab 10.1. Tried Tversity/uPnP and the rest but all I got was jerky playback over wifi.
Solution was long winded but now I can stream anything stutter free
1. Map NAS drives to PC (Windows 7 cannot index NAS so use this workaround)
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...to-index/d6a6cb41-1d66-476c-ab1e-70329dd55cc5
2. Install Qloud
3. Stream at 2048mbps
4. Funmouth
thanks for the reply works like a charm
no worries
Hi guys
I want to play files from my home file server through the wireless network on the SGS 2.
How can I do this ? Do I need to VPN in ?
yes i also need something like that to play my films from my pc on to my samsung phone... how do i do this?
I use CIFS and Mount Manager to access all my files. You have to be on the same network though. I never tried using a VPN to access files.
thanks mate but i only have 1 mac adress (because my carrier S*CKS) maybe i can try using hotspot... can you acces them and play them???
Did you try streaming the video? That way you would be able to access videos from anywhere and you would stream from your PC.
It's not an ideal solution but it could work on Android because I used something similar on my tablet once.
no i didnt but will try later after work... i only need it for the videos for the music i use audiogalaxy is freaking brilliant... its the best app for it.. no setup no nothing just install go to the webpage and your running its automatics find all your music on the pc.(for all try this) thanks a bunch
edit sorry last Q what do you use to stream videos
I use a paid remote connection app (Splashtop Remote) because it's fast and I can actually use it to play a video on my computer and watch it on my phone. It's not an ideal solution but it works for me when CIFS doesn't.
There is also this: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...quality-video-android-tversity-nswplayer.html
And this but I don't know if it works over a different network: http://www.appbrain.com/app/vlc-stream-convert/com.gmail.traveldevel.android.vlc.app
Whats the difference between these and using the allshare app?
Ricey
Any more suggestions on this ?
What if i want to transfer my files across from my PC to the phone if I'm not at home ?
Like .apk, photo files etc
yes vpn is necessary to get access your system out side the home....
Hi guys, just bought a Samsung smart TV and I wanted to know if and how could I stream movies from my phone to the TV Wireless.
I'm currently running Cm9. If there is an app required can someone upload it please.. thanks

You need all share to stream stuff on your smart tv. I don't know if all share works with CM9 though. All share is included in the stock Rom, so maybe if you ask somebody he/she will extract it for you do you can try it on CM9
it works on stock
Dont know about CM9, but with the stock rom, you just need to make sure your TV and Phone are connected to the same wifi and then you play your file on your phone. A symbol at the top of the stock player shows a 'choose your player' dialogues and then you choose your TV. Its starts playing either instantly or with a prompt on your tv, depending on your tv setup. I have mine set to auto accept. Works with photos and videos. I have tried with 1080p movies and it works without a problem.
Tv is LG LM670T. 3d smart. its gorgeous
I think most recently manufactured tv hs dlna.
Just search your tv model on Internet then you should be able to find out.
If so, then download bubbleupnp app from play store. You can either set up another server on your computer, which I do, using plex server, which you can download for free for your pc. Or you can use your phone as the server as well.
You can control all the streaming from your pc to your tv or phone to tv right from the bubbleupnp app. Very cool. If you install the extra bubbleupnp server on your computer, you can even stream remotely. Very easy to set up and very cool. Real cool.

If I understand well, you have two options: (1) stock Samsung rom and AllShare Cast (it needs Samsung framework, hence CM will not work) or (2) use DLNA (check if your TV supports it, but I guess so) and one of the apps mentioned above (which will also work in CM as it should support DLNA).
Hi
Is there any way to use allshare in galaxy s3?
can all share play share a folder on pc with phone?
All Share Play is for syncing with other devices and PC (if you install client on PC).
All Share Cast is for live phone streaming on a compatible device i.e. a tv with dongle, hdmi cable
both can be used with the s3...
till now I don't know what's All Share app in my S3

Yes it works. It's a little different than the old all share app. You gotta play with it you'll figure it out. It plays better than the last app
All share play streams too It does everything!!!
You don't have to install anything on your pc. Find the video or pics you want to stream check the box next to it and it will show up on the stream to device.

u dont need allshare app you go to settings, more settings, scroll down to the bottom and Nearby Deviced is what you need.
Samsung has made old Allshare app build in hope it helps. but if you want the old Alldhare app from S2 there u go
http://db.tt/dCAtF5Uh
it works just fine
I had a galaxy s2 and used all share on the phone to remote play video from my PC to my phone. By pressing remote device and browsing my windows media shared videos.
Why on earth does this not work on the s3? It just shows no videos on my pc......
I use my DLNA router enabled every day or so without problem. Browsing NAS shared folder with Solid or ES File explorer and watching movies. Or Dice player directly for example. Must be a config problem.
I use ArkMC (available on the Play Store) to stream stuff from my pc to my I9300. Very straightforward app, no setup whatsoever and works flawlessly for me so far. Give it a go, you might just need to reboot the phone after install tho for the app to actually take in account whatever is available in your WindowsMediaPlayer library & If I recollect correctly, i had to do that before being able to use see my media files through the app. Hope this heleped and if it did please hit the thx button

Hello, I have several questions:
What do you use as a server on your PC?
And how is it going with HiDefinition video, is it plays good?

Hey letrouble, only saw your message today...
Anyways bout your two questions, for this app to work, like said previously you won't need anything setupwise, windows media player is the "server" so you only need to add your files to its library, install the app on your device, reboot it and that's pretty much it...
Concerning your second question, yes, HiDef files run flawlessly with it, on devices that actually support such a definition of course, ie galaxy S3 and many others... tried on my old galaxy tab P1000, they will load but the framerate will not be high enough to take pleasure in watching your content...
Hope that helped & hope all of u guys had a good Xmass and will have an even better NYE
UPnPlay and BubbleUPnP work great
