Hi mates, our GNs running Jelly Bean are DLNA or any-other-similar-protocol capable? in order to share its content to TVs or media devices like Sony BDPs590?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Yes there are several apps that do this. I use iMediaShare for video, but prefer DoubleTwist + Airsync for music.

All in the title really I want to have an app I can use to listen to internet radio or stream music something similar to pandora or last fm what is the best app and how reliable are they?
also I have a readynas duo is there an app i can install that could access the music on there over the internet? (also the video as well would be nice)
many thanks in advance.

Hi,
I tried Resco Player and GSPlayer but the best is Pocket player 4x as it can play almost any streaming media type.

Hi thanks for the reply, this software looks really good actually, do you know I see it says it supports UPNP i beleive my readynas is upnp ready and my ps3 and xbox both pick up its media server as a upnp one do you think this means I will be able to stream content from my server? I would guess definately over wifi but what do you think about the internet, lol sorry if you have no idea, I see it also supports internet radio as wekk which is nice. I would really like a standalone application that gives random music based on what you like I tried pocked scrobbler but the transfer speed want that good only got around 2-40k.
Also I already have core player for movies but is it any good for streaming music?
many thanks again.
I've tried many players like TCPMP, core player, pocket radio, gsplayer ...
And the best I've found so far is kinoma : http://kinoma.com
This player also supports shoutcast streaming, included aac+ streams (better sound and less data
Try it and let me know if you like it.
If you like last.fm Pocket Scrobbler is a nice free client.

Well I tried it from your link. Mighty impressed, specially with the orb link. Gyro works great too on my HD.
Hi guys
I have recently come from the Windows mobile systems to Android (because WP7 is kack), I used to log into my Windows Home Server and stream movies from it to my phone using WebGuide.
This method doesn't seem to work on Android, does anyone know of any applications for Android or Windows Home Server which will allow me to do this again?
Most movies are home made and have been converted to .mp4 or .wmv formats but I do have a couple of .avi movies too.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Terry
I have had luck with the mp4 streaming server from the tools4movies website. Streams well over wifi and will do 3G if the quality is reduced enough. It might suit most of your needs
Never found an Android app and was considering a Windows 7 phone since it is supposed to work well with WHS V2, I have decided to stick with Android.

If you can install VLC player on your server, you can watch your movies with VLC S&C Free app for your DHD. You can play anything with that - mp4, avi, wmv, mkv... you name it.
This is probably old news now but for anyone who wants to know, I finally found an app that works.
It's called Subsonic, it works on port 4040 on your media center/WHS box and streams perfectly for music and video - it doesn't say that it supports video as it was originally designed just for music but it works impressively none the less.
Subsonic also has a trick up its sleeve which allows you to watch live tv directly from your tv tuner, from what I can tell this only works from Media Centre machines itself with a HD Homerun box which allows TV over IP.
I hope this helps anyone who comes across this article.

What media server is subsonic connecting to? I can't get it to see twonky
None, it just sits on my Windows Home Server and streams my personal music and movies directly.

Hi fellow defy users,
DLNA is great but the problem is my media player on defy cannot play most of the media files on my computer. Is there a way to add codecs to the DLNA media player or switch to an alternative player for playing the files? Or any suggestions for an app which can play media files on a network computer?
Thanks
anyone??????????????
I would like to kown that too...
Hi
I just changed from RCMix3D to Ice cold sandwich.
I have been using the feature to choose output in both gallery and music player, to send the pictures, videos and music from my phone to my XBMC mediacenter.
Is this feature a Sense feature? Or has it just not been ported in the ICS yet?
Does anyone know how to get it to play to XBMC?
Regards
Since HTC Sense own MediaShare used DLNA protocols to transmit multimedia to and from the phone, you can use any other DLNA certified application such as Skifta.
There are also another alternative such as setting up your own media folder onto your network. Therefore, XBMC can monitor the content of your media files directly without hassle.
Just was wondering if you guys use a DLNA app like Allshare from Samsung. I would love to have this on my GNEX.
Try Skifta. It's better.
Haven't tried Skifta. I've been using iMediashare for a while now and it's pretty decent.
using imediashare...works great with the Boxee Box
I use BubbleUpnp.
It allows you to identify a device as a renderer, so you can control it remotely - for example, i have my media on my network drive, and use my phone to tell my GTV what to play.
I also have an old Android phone hooked up to the stereo in my garage, and do the same thing with that - control it with my Gnex...
+1 for iMediaShare.

Twonky beam browser is also good. I use it to stream YouTube and movies from my phone to my smart TV.

+1 for Twonky Beam Browser and Twonky Mobile with the free PC Twonky Server, theses have proven the most reliable for me and my *complex* set up, I have some content on Home server, and have a Xbox360, a WD live and an Apple TV! I can send content from any location to any other location!
Skifta and Upnp. Upnp seems to be better for music, but both are great.

I tried bubble upnp and Skifta combined with default video player, MX videoplayer and Mobo Player but I can't see videos.
I used bubble + mx video player on LG Dual (CM7) and it works but with my Galaxy Nexus no... I see only a "waiting" message with MX videoplayer and MoboPlayer... why?
And if I transfer the original video to the phone memory I can see it even with the default player!!!
I have the original 4.0.4 rom rooted, nothing more!
Thanks!
Skifta was quite unstable for me. It caused the GNex to freeze up when re-entering the app. Had to battery pull to restart.

How can I solve my problem? It seems that every dlna application can't run with my galaxy nexus...
EDIT: Solved, that was a setting of my dlna server... damn!
