I currently set up my T-Mobile GS3 for dlna streaming to my ps3. Everything works fine except videos taken with the GS3. These videos, no matter what settings I use (low res or hi res) end up choppy. It kinda pauses every other second. I can stream movies put on the sd card from other sources just fine but the ones taken with the GS3 are choppy.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried to search for it so I'm sorry if this is a repeat...
Has anyone else tried Orb streaming service. I think it's the best thing I've found since my WM6 Rom and of course it's free and requires no new install on the phone.
Once you download an app to your computer to allow it to stream media out, you can access media on your computer over the web. This isn't a new concept, but the thing that stands out for me is the fact that it works great with the hermes - streaming stored videos, pictures, and music from the PC (among other things)
If you have a TV tuner on your computer it's even better. It will let you watch live TV or previously recorded TV. It will even let you schedule a recording from the phone if you forgot while you were at home (albeit - not through WMC rather their own, but they usually play nice).
My only recomendation is to lower the expected stream speed to 40 or 80 kbps at the bottom of mobile website to eliminate chopiness. Also, if you have a media player other than WMP on the phone - make sure the stream goes to WMP (it works well in there)
i have been using it for a couple years, and its great for live tv and i have a few hundred divx movies on my harddrive that i can stream and its free!
Yes, it is a very nice program. I've been using it for a while, too. It even supports webcams. Probably one of the best programs I've ever used.
I just wish it was able to skip commercials on a recorded tv program or skip to a point in a recorded TV show...
yeah it is a great service! i've been using it even before i got into winmo (which was in '03!!)
GreyGabe, edit the comercials out on your pc with a vid editing software...
same here, using it for years. first started to stream with it on my MPX220 (non-edge) and i was blown away then. About to stream one of my shows in an hour or so at work....
Just for live TV, have a decent computer. after i did an upgrade to a better processor and ram, the streams coppyness/buffering almost dissappeared. Also, having something better than DSL helped a lot too...
Hi
I have some issues in the video recorded by GS2 device. It works fine and excellent when i play it in my GS2. I copied the mp4 files to my laptop and when i play it using VLC media player, it plays fine for few seconds and it freezes. After some time it plays back fine. The freezing part if puerly random Its happening for all the mp4 files that i copied over to my laptop.
I dont have any issues playing other mp4 files from my laptop using VLC player. Is anything/any settings needs to be changed?. Do i need to use different player?. Please help.
Thank you
that's your laptop codec issue
download CCCP and install it
VLC is not the greatest player, i use Zoom player, or the plain media player classic included with CCCP
VLC is one of the worst player ever (IMO)
[Q] T-Mobile Galaxy S2 plays choppy videos?
I have the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 that I just got like 2 weeks ago.
I have played videos using the VEVO app, Youtube app, youtube on the web, and watching Netflix.
All the videos I play seem to play choppy videos. My friend said it might be my bandwidth. I tried on my wifi, and also when connected to HSPA+. But when I do speedtests on T-Mobile's network, I get as high as 21Mbps down. Videos still choppy at times.
Is it the phones screen, or TouchWiz UI, or the T-Mobile ROM itself? I want the videos to play clear like on my old Nexus One, ipad 2, and like on my PC.
See? The problem is you have an ipad, as soon as you get rid of it it will play videos like magic. Ipad sends signals in teh air!

What?
I am watching videos from online. Not videos that Ive put on the devices.
So I just picked up an HTC EVO 4G LTE, and I've got 3 OG EVO's that I'm not using. I have a few HDMI adapters as well.
Has anyone tried to turn it into a media streamer? I'm not having much luck, wanted to know what others have done.
I can use Tablet Remote to remote-control the original EVO with my EVOLTE.
I have installed HDMwIn to do native output via HDMI (and it works quite well).
The problem I am having is with the actual streaming. I've tried TVersity, PLEX, and VLC Streamer without much success. PLEX streams the video, but it looks pixelated and 'slow'.
Has anyone had success with this or is the OG EVO just not powerful enough to do this?
Most of my videos are XVID/DIVX and some MKV..
When the EVO 4G initially came out, CNet did some testing with the HDMI output and couldn't get it to play smoothly for higher resolution videos.
After spending some time encoding various file formats and sizes, we found that MP4 movie files performed the most consistently. Also, files rendered closer to the Evo's native 800x480 resolution worked best as larger videos stuttered and would not play properly on-screen.

And this was presumably using the original HDMI-out support that HTC's API provided. I'm guessing your videos are higher resolution than 800x480? If so, a Raspberry Pi might be the right tool for this job instead of the Evo.
I have found that a server/app combo called "Emit" works extremely well for me. It's been the best solution for streaming media across my network to my EVO by far!
It plays practically anything I throw at it, handles subtitles well, and has had great video quality.
Thanks, I'll have to check out Emit to see if it's any better.
I'm currently using an older Xbox 360 with Tversity to stream my videos, but I thought it might be 'better' to use my EVO, but it's not.
I can get them to stream, they just don't look very good when output to the TV (as pointed out by the cnet reference).
No matter what I do, I get pixelation at the higher resolutions. Maybe someone will eventually make a Google TV ROM or something...it seems like all the hardware is there, just lacking the right software to get it done correctly.
Just for reference, I use PLEX to stream it, HDMIwIn to mirror the screen, and Tablet Remote to control the phone.
For just about everything else though, it works pretty well. Can run the other apps and such without any issues, it's only the streaming video. I wonder if I played them natively on the phone if they would be pixelated or not.
I have noticed this so far in vevo and twitch apps, I can't stream videos on the high video quality level. I get audio but no video. I have a nexus 10 as well, and using the same apps, same wifi connection they stream perfectly fine, so it isn't the Internet connection. Both apps are up to date as well. Any idea what is going on?
Stock rom, rooted on both the note 10.1 and nexus 10. Something with the Samsung rom maybe?
Anyone else have issues streaming videos recorded on your phone in full hd to your Samsung tv? Mine buffers or loads so frequently it's almost not even worth the effort. My buddy at work says he gets the same thing, so wondering if it's just that the dnla or whatever it's called is just too slow?
