Hi all.
I recently found airplay (and hairplay) for my mums mac air and are running hairplay on a raspberry PI for her. I do really miss this feature on my android, I want to get home from work and immediately be able to stream my Spotify music to my miniMAC HTPC connected to all speakers at home.
How can I stream my music from my handset to my home speakers through the wifi network? Please help me with suggestions!
I got a rooted ZTE Blade now with CM7.
Im waiting for my Nexus 4 and will flash CyanogenMod on it really soon so Root access is possible if it involves that.
No answer I figured. There are loads of similar threads.
And the usual answer is use UPnP.
The reason I don't want to use that / can't use that is I'm Streaming all my music from Spotify, there for the reason I want a AirPlay couterpart.
I want to capture all sounds from my android device and sent it to a couple of speakers through a receiver and maybe a computer what ever solution you suggest and know about. Thanks!

Hi!
As the title says, i wondered if Android allows you to stream audio from the device to the network? Specifically for Airfoil, is it possible to play music from spotify (etc.) from the phone, on my other airfoil units?
I contacted the developer, and he was unsure wether this was possible with the current APIs or not, i would sure be willing to pay for such a program at least
Such a program exist for iOS already: http://itunes.apple.com/app/reemote-for-airfoil/id396381723?mt=8
Thanks!
Will this thread be of any help:

That seems to be the opposite way of what i am interested in. Have found that my DoubleTwist media player supports streaming to my Mac Mini running XBMC, so i dont see why this wouldnt work for Spotify/wimp instead.
An app that "hijacks" the audio source, and sends it via WiFi to Airplay/Airfoil/DLNA supported devices would be what i am looking for i guess.

This is something i really want too, what Apple has done with their Airplay is something that would be awesome to have in our Android devices.
agreed, need to audio-hijack all system sound to send to airplay. want to be able to sent pandora, etc controlled from my phone to an airplay receiver.
There is some development going on towards this. I use Shairport on an old phone to act as an Airport express :

The Airports keys were 'Cracked ' so there will be something eventually.

I bought winamp for android.
It will be nice if this development can be as you mention.
Hope I dont have to buy doubleTwist since I like Winamp.
I've been at this for a while and have yet to find a valid solution. I know now that DLNA might as well not exist and I've been using a subsonic server with the subsonic app on the market to stream movies and such from my PC to my phone. This works great except it can only be done at my home (not at all over the mobile network). My question is are any of you streaming from PC to phone, then to TV via HDMI? Or streaming at all to phone over mobile network? If so please post what you are using because this feature is basically why I got the phone. In a side note I'm not an amateur with android phones and I have gingerblur running. I figure this question is a longshot and I expect only something like a Cyanogen mod or a future update of gingerblur will make this all possible. Any input is much appreciated.
Hi everybody
I have a Android based tablet(junpad, like flypad) that i have as a spotify player.
Now i woundering if ther is any apps that make it possible for me to use my galaxy s or laptop as a remotecontrol to change track etc, etc. have looked at Remote Web Desktop but i cant control spotify through that. And DroidMote Server does not work on the tablet for some reason.
So, is there any aps out there that fits me?
I can connect a wireless usb mouse to the tablet, but how cool is that? Would be nice with a app or something
No one knows anyting that can work?
I'm gonna drudge this up instead of starting a new thread. Same question. I would like to control Spotify from my Galaxy Tab 10.1 with my Galaxy S III...
... also same questiion....
Did you get any further with this?
It would be great if Spotify could enable an option to play music on any other device (with the same user registered).
My best solution so far is with Spot Commander; an android application which controls a spotify server on a Linux netbook.
But I'd prefer to use an obsolete Android phone - since it would use much less power - also in stand-by. Another idea - perhaps the spot commander server application (which is Open Source) could be ported to the Raspberry Pi.
Media Remote
Media Remote by appshroom works but is pretty limited.
Hey folks,
Sorry to kick up an old thread, but I was Googling around to find the answer to the question posed above and I thought maybe answering this thread would help the next guy. It seems that if you want to control Spotify on Android from another Android, you can do so using DroidRemote. The downside to doing it this way is that it uses bluetooth.
I'd really prefer a way to do it via WiFi as its' range is higher and I don't have to turn on the bluetooth radio just for this purpose, which in turn consumes my precious mAh's. It'd also be dandy if I could use my Windows box to control Spotify on Android.
This Galaxy Tab 2 will do nicely as a Spotify player but controlling it remotely would be even more boss.
Hello,
Is there any new solution to remote control Spotify on tablet from a phone ? Is there no tweak available or mod ? Even if you root your phone / tab ?
Regards.

I second this question.
I have a small Minix as my spotify player connected to my TV and surround system. I have been searching forever for a solution that will allow me to control the Minix spotify session from my Nexus7 Tablet.
Any suggestions? Please!!!!!

Hi all,
Currently i am wondering what options i have to stream audio from my android phone to my PC?
being a previous iPhone-owner, i just got my HTC One mini (4.2.2).
I have a Airplay-Reciever-Software installed on my PC, so i was able to stream any audio from my iPhone to my PC - native.
Actually, i dont want to install any app on my phone, as i dont want to be limited to a specific app for my music or video.
Native steaming seems to be possible with MIracast and DLNA....
I was reading through many articles about DLNA and Miracast - none being really helpfull. I couldnt find any PC-Reciever-Software for Miracast, and DLNA seems to work entirely different.
Also, making my android stream to Airplay doesnt seem to work without root AND a specific app - not really an option either.
You guys have any idea?
Thanks
Lennart
for anyone with the same issue:
DLNA can work this way: Streaming audio from my phone to a DLNA player (WMP on win7).
Also, chromecast can be an option (for google-apps).
Cheers!
Hi there, i recently switched to android (HTC One) ive rooted it, tried cyan, but went back to sense. Anyway, ive also ordered a Nexus Q - mostly cuz it looks gr8 - i have apple TV and i use it with an app on my One where i stream from spotify to my appleTV and to my stereo. When i get my Nexus Q i plan to get CyanogenMod on it, and a airplay server, so i switch out the appleTV.
BUT my dream would be to get a android app on my Nexus Q so i can stream everything from my HTC One to my Nexus Q with DLNA/UPnP,cuz thats possible right? DLNA/UPnP works like AirPlay? Is this possible?
u want to stream media content from device to device? why does it make sense?:laugh:
I want to stream the system audio, like spotify, just like airplay, screenmirroring would be nice, my question is: do i need a seperate device, like netgear push2tv, or is there a app that does the same thing like an android client
