Any screen cast to Smart TV with subtitles support? - Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps

I'm looking forward to install any cyanogenmod 12 rom in my mobile but my main objection is getting the stock AllShare Samsung services with any third party app.
Mainly the ability to get the srt subtitles displayed in my Samsung Smart TV.
I've tried with several apps like AllCast and LocalCast and they won't "send" the subtitles to the TV. Any idea or I have to stick to Samsung Roms to get this working?

[Q] DLNA/Allshare on the MIUI?

I love the MIUI but I have been skeptical about trying it because I'm too attached to Samsung's specially designed apps such as the Allshare (DLNA), Email (split view), Samsung keyboard, Memo, Kies Air, photo editor and Video Maker and Voice Talk (home button double click).
From what I read, these are built on a different framework than the MIUI (CM7) which will not work. Very sad face.
So the real question is, is there a way to port any of the mentioned apps over to MIUI?
A alternative for Allshare that I would recommend is Skifta. I even use it on my phone which is a stock based rom since it is better in the area of the phone as the player since Allshare is hard coded to use the stock video player and will not let you select a different installed player which means lower format support and you can't stream mkv's to the phone from a server even though the phone could play the same file if it is on the sdcard.
For phone to other device it has the same capabilities.

Thanks shadowofdarkness, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work properly. When I click on Music it just sits there for a while, and non of the movies play. I'm thinking maybe I need another player?
I noticed it's beta, so it might be in the process of being fixed.

What is your setup, is the phone the server or player? On my phone I prefer MX video player in SW mode for best compatibility.
I have the following devices and have not had any real problems
Phone server/client
XBMC server/client
MythTV server only
The clients especially TVs can have low format support since a lot of manufacturers only put in the most heavily used formats and can even have problems with variations of certain codec profiles.
All my media is stored on a windows 7 pc that has media stream server enabled. So whatever I have in My Music, My Video and My Pictures is easily viewed in Allstream. Skifta looks great btw, just hope they fix the issues soon.

Id say that if you like those special services that samsung provides don't install MIUI. Currently it is on v4 for the GS3, nevertheless the beta is on its way and is being tested as we speak. The GUI is really nice, but you DO loose some special services.

[Q] Can Galaxy Tab play Google TV?

I got the Galaxy tab 10.1, but I don't see a Google TV applicaton which plays video contents on Android Market.
I am little confused. will there exist an application to play Google TV content? or We need to buy a Google TV device?
Since I already have the galaxy tab (the hardware), it has android as the OS, it should be more powerful than any Google TV devices (Sony, Logitech Google TV devices), why there still don't have an application to play Google TV on my Tab. Just like the NetFlix app to play Netflix on my tablet.
I heard the Google TV content is free, isn't it?
Will it possible a Google TV app available to my tablet in the future? So I can decide if I need to buy a Google TV device?
Can someone educate me?
Thanks

I have the Sony Google TV device. There's no such thing as a "Google TV app." It's a totally different UI that interfaces with your cable box which it uses as a source of content. It's big advantage is that it allows you to search for content that exists both on cable TV and the Internet at the same time. For example, if you're looking for a specific movie or show it'll search your cable provider, Netflix, and Amazon, and participating networks (there aren't many, they're boycotting Google TV) and display all the choices at the same time. All the apps and content that exist on the TV version of Honeycomb are available in some form on phones and tablets. And any content available for free isn't coming from Google, it's coming from the content providers so if it's free on TV it's free on your phone or Tab.
Expecting Google TV apps being developed for Tablet PCs
Thanks Barry!
Now I understand a bit more about the Google TV. I looked at the Sony blue-ray player (featuring Google TV) and found out it does not need a cable TV input. This means all the video content it searches/plays are from the internet/local USB devices.
This is very similar to my Samsung D8000 smart TV which is internet connected and has the search function built-in (it can find and play movies/videos from YouTube, Netflix,Hulu etc) except is is not Google TV "certified".
I think in theory, the Google TV (content) does not require a extra hardware (like Sony or Logitech players) if you already have a tablet that connects to the Internet. Tablets can play the Google TV content as long as they have an application which can search and plays videos. So, I believe it is just a matter of time for applications be developed for existing tablets (android OS or iPad).
Please correct me if my hypothesis is wrong.
Thanks for your answers!

[Q] Display mirroring with samsung smart blu-ray player

By installing the most recent google play services it actually finds my device. Tv says connecting to kindle then an icon goes on my kindle status bar then poof screen mirroring ends. Prior to installing google play services it doesn't even see the blu-ray player. I feel I'm getting close.
My galaxy note 2 works perfectly, but that is samsung to samsung. Anyone trying to get this to work without buying a dongle? It should work fine with my player

[Q] DLNA Streaming problems

Hi there cut to the chase.
Issue 1
-----------
I have various laptops / PC with Serviio installed happily streaming to my TV (Samsung 5 Series)
With my old stock ROM (4.2 I think) connecting to the TV was no issue, start video in stock app then click the Allshare icon in the top left and hey presto video on TV. Them my network (3UK) released the 4.3 update and my phone no longer showed my TV, just hung at detecting devices. A couple of times it did work but I have no clue what was different.
I installed BubbleUPNP and that picks up both TV and Laptops so I know the DLNA side of the phone is fine.
I then put various custom ROMs on and found myself more comfortable with Revolutionary S5 and it worked, connected to TV everything okay. Since the first time it will not pick up the TV.
Issue 2
----------
With the Revolutionary S5, there is the S5 video app and that shows Personal, Download and Devices in the top tabs. If I chose Devices it lists my Serviio installations but gives me the message "After you have shared videos on the connected devices they will appear here"
But they are shared as my TV, BubbleUpnp and various other DLNA apps/ programs can play the files.
Does anyone know of any solutions to these ? Or am I stuck using a third party app to play media from my SAMSUNG phone to my SAMSUNG TV ?!
Cheers

Screencast to Chromecast with 4.2 Jellybean

Hey all,
i am looking for an app to screencast from my rooted 4.2 Jellybean tablet.
I found various "screencast" or "screenmirror" app that allow me to take videos of my screen OR apps to stream "ANY VIDEO!!!" from my phone to my chromecast...
Officially, screen mirroring is available from 4.4 KitKat.
The only casting i can do is app-specific like Youtube, Google Music - but there is non to simply cast my whole screen
There is this ominous app called #MirrorEnabler (http://lifehacker.com/mirror-enabler-brings-chromecast-screen-mirroring-to-mo-1604683876) - but it vanished completly from the forum...
Background: Im trying to bring my Amazon prime videos to my chromecast... i have the videos running on my (legacy) tablet in the amazon app (which doesnt support chromecast), but not on my TV just yet
Thanks!
