I was under the impression we'd just be able to pick between light and dark for the homescreen. Unless my eyes are playing tricks on me, the leaked photos from MS's twitter of the LG Optimus seem to have some picture in the background of the homescreen.

1st word is definately Media. 2nd word is hard to make out...
looks like (CS)h*d**
The obvious one would be Media Center... and maybe the 2nd word is just at a funny angle. Icon seems to convey the phone wirelessly communicating with a monitor/TV.
Even though that image in the background is probably an illusion...it does look pretty good .
Damn wireless media would be awesome!

I don't have a Zune...but does anyone know if it can be a media extender, like windows 7, xbox, etc.? If it can then I can't see the phone not having the same functionality.
I was wondering the same thing.
I don't see why not.

No, it doesn't function as a media extender. And actually, Windows PC's can't even function as extenders. Only Xbox 360 and the few specific extender devices do. The Zune integration with MCE is actually rather lackluster. If a recording is protected or the audio is AC3 encoded (a lot of HD content), you can't convert it for playback on the Zune (easily at least).
That tile offers something and I want to find out exactly what it is.
It's "Media Sharing"...I'd guess the DLNA feature that's been making the rounds lately.

Any suggestions on how to use the EVO to watch what's going on with our babies in their nursery if I put a web cam or some other sort of video camera in there? Preferably a very cost effective solution and one that will allow me to move the camera to a different room if necessary.
There are apps in the market for this.
Thanks, which one with what hardware do you recommend?

what about QIK? it allows you do stream live videos on the internet, so you can log into a qik account via a pc and see what is going on through your Evo 4g....
correct me if I'm wrong on this

I want to watch using the EVO. I'm sure you could do that very easily but that would be an incredible waste of resources.
Probably an X10 camera or similar. Check out smarthome.com
I wonder if my logitech wilife indoor security system would work with this....
Linksys IP webcam for hardware and IP cam viewer lite from the market is my setup.

I have seen this question a few times figured I would post it here .
If you would like to stream the media on your phone on your Xbox there is an app called Twonky Server and it works great. There is a free trial version to make sure if works.

Nice. Not going to lie, I think the one thing Motorola got right with the Droid X (besides build quality) was DLNA certification, sharing stuff with the xbox was so easy. I'm a bit surprised Vanilla Android doesn't include this...
That actually how I found this app in the first place. Liberty 1.5 didn't have it baked in so I used twonky
O!mediashare does this same thing for free without a trial.except I run into problems with some file types.apparently the xbox is very picky about what types of files it can play.unless it is something that has to do with the app itself.

Hello this is just an idea and I hope someone could comeup with something to do this. Now I know that you can install other 3rd Party apps but I like the idea of the three finger swipe and your video popping up on your DLNA capable smart tv or computer client, but after some googling around I couldn't find anything.
So I was hoping I could give someone the idea to create something like this that would trick the phone into sending data to another device than the MediaLink from HTC. Although if I haven't searched around enough and have missed something please could someone point me into the right direction.
Thank you very much

Yeah, thats what I meant!
The One X does support DLNA and the music, photo and video apps have a play on function so you can stream to any DLNA device. This principle works fine for my WDTV. Just no gesture which isn't a big deal really.

Is there any way to do a screencast on an Android device... in particular the Nexus 7? I'm trying to put together a video and I wanted a clip that showed the U.S. and it zoomed into a specific city. Problem is, on the computer Google Earth is somewhat choppy despite having nearly brand new hardware, and Google Maps just does an instant snap to that location. Google Maps on my N7 on the other hand works JUST AS I WOULD LIKE... but I'm not sure how to capture it?
Any idea?

Screencast captures your phone screen at high frame rates into a high quality MPEG4 video with audio. It can also take snapshots of your screen by holding the search key on your phone.

I want something like this, not to record a screencast, but to use as a way of having video out in lieu of not having hdmi. I have a pc hooked up to my hdmi display and was looking at the options. This app sounds like the best but doesn't work yet with tegra 2/3.
How fast is it with other devices? Like could a game be played at a smooth frame rate? Does it allow to stream live and not record a video?
Are there any other ways of doing this?
I've been searching for a while now with no luck. I record gameplay on my GNote with the afore mentioned app but seeing as the developer has all but vanished I'm guessing we won't be seeing Tetra support.
You'd almost think Nvidia would make an app to do this just so Tetra fans could make gameplay videos, thereby promoting their devices.

There are some demo videos of stuff coming... Nivdia has one showing a playbook to a TV that has the Miracast protocol
and ESR labs has the following
Hopefully soon...
Unless you already have a TV with it built in, you will need a some some sort dongle that has WiFi and s HDMI output. I just got a raspberry pi to be used with the ESR labs Android Transporter when it come available.

I just stumbled upon those videos yesterday. Very interesting stuff. I think I may grab a couple of raspberry pi's. I'm in Canada and I couldn't find it in stock right now. I wish they would build a cheap enclosure for it. I put a post on their website if they plan on making a linux client and not just for the pi. I would think it wouldn't take too much to make a generic version. I also noticed some hdmi outputs on tablets don't provide 1:1 mirroring. For ex, acer tablets cutoff the bottom menu. This I believe is for video playback, which makes sense, but I hope it's an option or in the spec of miracast to offer 1:1. I saw a TI demo of miracast as well, and they make mention of the display showing one thing and the tablet showing something different typical of normal wired hdmi outputs. Nvidia also has demo's of miracast as you linked, but I hope they make a windows client. It'll be a ways off before it's standard on TV's and it sounds like there will be dongle's available, but a lot of people have computers hooked up to their displays so it would be nice if there is a complete software solution as well.
Android Transporter for the Nexus7 and Raspberry PI
Hi all,
the video you showed in the one post is our old demo video.
Since yesterday we have a public preview. please see http://esrlabs.com/android-transporter-for-the-nexus-7-and-the-raspberry-pi/

No, it's not possible. you need root or a pc (actually the root way to do it does not work atm)
Android 4.2 is supposed to include native support for Miracast devices. So we just need the Miracast set top boxes.
Does anyone know if Miracast carries over Audio?
I just installed Screencast on my N7 with CM10.1 grouper nightly 12182012.
When I try to screen capture video in landscape or in portrait the audio saves properly, but the video is a static hodgepodge of TWRP Touch recovery in a purplish sepiatone
yo b1LL did you bother reading Screencast app description? doesnt support Nexus 7 nor any tegra 3 based devices
Here's one
There's another thread that has one, and it works for screencasting but it really only gets 1-2 fps. So if you're desperate:

Hi guys,
I am looking for a goog XCBM client. Main feature should be to easily create and modify (while playing) playlists for music files. It should run on my Android mobile and tablet. I tried XCBM remote, but it does not meet my needs.
Any suggestions?
Thanks upfront

Yatse is really good!
The app makes a good impression, but somehow the playlist stuff does not work. I can add titles in a queue, but I cant add them to playlists, neither can I edit playlists. Any hint?
