So, i searched and could not find was i what looking for...
Here is what i would like:
1) PC with movie on harddisc (and for instance tversitiy)
2) stream to galaxy tab (have it working with skifta/rockplayer)
3) connect galaxy tab to tv with HDMI connection
Result --> play movie from pc on tv via wifi
O, and what would be great even greater --> use my HTC desire android phone as a remote control (like pausing and fast forward)
What do you guys think.... is this possible????
you could do that with ES files Explorer
- install ES
- select the folders you want to share on Windows
- open ES files and click LAN then MENU--> NEW--> SCANNER--> it should display your computer with the local IP as name (no need to wait for the scan to end just click BACK)
- click on the media file to open and choose stock player to read it
- you know the rest !
if a file doesnt open with a simple press, just make a long press and select "open as" and select whatever it is
not exactly what i ment.

1. You would need an HDMI cable that you can connect to your tv and tab. But as far as I know and can find out the Galaxy doesn't have or support HDMI output.
See the specs here: http://gadgetian.com/10288/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-specs-price-2/
It could be possible to do if you can find a HDMI mirroring app like the one I use for my eVo4g, as far as I know their isn't one that would work on Honeycomb.
2. As for using your Desire as a remote, you'd have to find a app that could control what ever media player you use, either through wifi or bluetooth. You might be able to find one on the market. You could also try one of those remote desktop apps on the market.

If your tv supports DLNA push then you can use Skifta to stream to tv without any wires.
I don't have a tv with DLNA support, so i connected my tv to pc as a secondary display and i use Skifta basically as a remote control. I use windows built in media server, it supports DLNA push on win7.

and where do you controle skifta? from you tablet and then let it push to the tv?
Not sure if this is exactly what your wanting, but I use VLC Direct pro to play videos from my sg10. 1 or my android phone to play on my computer. The program also let's you control the player and let's you play the videos on your computer. It wasnt that hard to setup just google it.

Skifta is on my tablet, i use it to browse my movie library (it's on my PC) and select play to PC (it outputs picture to my TV). Hope this makes sense, English is not my native language so it's hard for me to explain it.
Basically i sit on my couch, holding the tablet and using Skifta app to control whats playing on my TV.

You will need to purchase the HDMI dongle that samsung offers. It attaches to the bottom connector of the tab. Just like how the IPad's do.

Hi
i need an app to remotely control my camera in my phone.
I want to click on my pc in a tool which makes my phone take a photo in full resolution.
Like good old normal cameras with remote controls.
Hello, I have a galaxy tab s 10.5 and I'd like to know if there is a way to watch telecine direct from my webbrowser. I have a regular plan cable tv. Everytime I try to watch a message appears suggesting to download the telecine play app but I want to watch only on webbrowser, just like I do in my computer using windows. Is that possible?
Hello
I have ordered the Amazfit Pace. And now i realized that I haven't done my research properly, since i discovered, that the watch missed out on a basic feature like controlling the music player on a connected mobile. Would it be possible to manually install a 3. party controller like Wear Music Controller, and use that instead?

On my Samsung when connecting to the TV using Smart Share aka miracast, screen share or wireless projection I was able to use my TV remote to navigate the phone. On the mate 20 the TV remote doesn't seem to be able to navigate the phone. Anyone know if this is possible?.
