Hi Guys
Im trying to figure out how to use Miracast on my Galaxy, stock firmware to stream locally stored video
can anybody give me a walkthrough, if i set wifi direct up on it, it finds my LG Smart TV 47LA660V
and searches and connects to my TV saying Miracast connected, but then if i search to my movie folder
to find a movie, i.e mp4 format, it keeps disconnecting, and i seem to be in a endless loop,??
is there a correct sequence to follow ??
Thanks for any assistance given

Hello, first post here. Pretty new to the whole smartphone thing. Trying to get the allshare, specifically the screen share to work with my tv. I have an ethernet cord plugged into a samsung tv with allshare with the other end going into a wireless router. The phone and tv find each other and I can stream a movie without a problem. When I go down to the screen share option in the settings it says no device detected. I spoke with samsung a couple of times about it and they said the only way for that to work is with one of their wireless dongles. I find that hard to believe that I can stream movies but not share the screen but I'm also new at this so I was wondering if you had any insight. Thanks in advance
DLNA isn't made for screen sharing. It's just not...I've been using DLNA for a good while before I got a smartphone with that capability. It's really apples and oranges.
i don't understand why in the tv manual it would say that you could though. Just that my phone needs to have screen share on it. was hoping to browse the internet on my tv or play some emulators on it. has anyone else been able to do that with this phone?
ndavis, it seems you are thinking of the phone's tv out feature via 3.5 mm jack. You can't run emulators over DLNA.
i've been trying to figure out how to play videos on the phone (from my pc). the phone sees the videos, but when i try to stream them, it says "unsupported file format". I know that the file is supported because if i physically download it to my phone, it plays fine. Any ideas?
Dear Folks,
I seen Youtube videos of a S3 displaying photos and video on a Samsung TV. I have a 7000 series Samsung TV and have no idea how to do this.
Can anyone help?

You should be on the same network with both devices for this to work.
Your Samsung TV should have Allshare, have a look for this with the Smart button on your remote.
Your S3 (Settings>More Setings>Nearby Devices) has a file sharing option, turn it on.
You should see both devices pop up on both displays requested permission to share.
Outside of the same network you need to start creating Samsung accounts on both devices
Thank you - I will try again.
The TV can find the S3 (I9300), but the S3 can't find the TV.
I do have three networks so maybe I'm logged onto the wrong one.

Try SWL (Samsung Wireless Link)!
i have es6800 and s3. If you want to connect your s3 with tv for youtube. Go to youtube app at s3, press "add tv", go to tv youtube app and at account/pair you will see code and enter that code at your s3. And u will be paired.
In all honesty all you need to be on the same network as your tv, wired or wireless. Then just go to your gallery and press the tv out button, then the media will come up on the telly. Same for music and videos, you do not need all share, nor do you need wifi direct. That's a load of bull. Just a wifi connection and the ability to share. Which phone have been able to offer you since the desire I believe.

Hey all,
I am very pedantic about everything on my tablet and was looking for a way to get the TV shows on my laptop to show up as TV shows on my tablet. I've got a mix of mkvs and m4vs. I've imported then into Media Go and sorted them all out as TV shows on there, but when I sync them to my tablet (internal or external storage), they only appear as movies. I've scoured the internet and found no answers, so I was wondering if anyone here knew a way around this. I know its a very small thing but I would appreciate it if anyone could help me.
Thanks!
Can anybody tell my what is chromecast?
i heared that you plug it to TV and send the info over Wi-Fi from a Device such as android
At first, is it "Mirroring" or similar to DLNA?
i mean it's just for Photos and Videos and vice versa?
I Actually Want to Browse the Internet on My Tablet while viewing it on the TV
Or Precisely, i want to use My Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 as a Mini-PC and this Tab dosen't support USB OTG or HDMI/MHL Capabilities
so Using a Bluetooth Mouse and On-Screen Keyboard with streaming to TV Over Chromecast would be Everything i want
i just want to browse Facebook, nothing else.
Hello,
I'm posting here because I'm not making progress with Samsung support.
I'm no expert so please be patient with me.
I own a NAS drive with Twonky 6 media sharing. I can access the media shares
through Samsung Link on my new SmartTV (UN32EH5300) successfully. But I want more.
I'd like to access the shares and send them to the SmartTV from my Galaxy Player 5.
My first effort to do this involved the predecessor to Samsung Link - Samsung AllShare
This app comes with the factory firmware (Gingerbread 2.3.5) for the Galaxy Player.
AllShare cannot detect the SmartTV. Thinking it might be a router problem, I opened the UDP 1900
and TCP 2869 UPnP ports for the TV. No help. Samsung support told me it might be a firmware
problem on the Galaxy Player. As there is no Samsung firmware update available, I began
acquainting myself with the subject of custom ROMs. However, I've read that most
custom ROM's do not support AllShare. Alternatively, I cannot install Samsung Link on the
Galaxy Player; I receive a message that it is not supported for this version of the Galaxy
Player. Does anyone have an idea to get the Galaxy Player to recognize the SmartTV through
Samsung AllShare/Samsung Link or something else?
Next, I started downloading UPnP apps from Google. I tried BubbleUPnP, Twonky Beam,
ZappoTV, etc. None of these Android apps would recognize the SmartTV. I even installed
a couple of UPnP "detectors" - apps that should list available UPnP devices. These also
failed to detect the SmartTV. There are quite a few apps for UPnP. Might one that I have not
tried work? Does anyone have a recommendation for one that might work?
If this can be accomplished with a custom ROM, I might try it. I just wonder how many
stock apps I might lose on the upgraded Galaxy Player. I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Bob
