Hi guys,
Im using the default video player for my vids. There are some videos(Taken on iPhone 4S) which i have stored in my SGS3. They play fine on the device but when i try to stream them to my TV using all share cast i get an error message on my TV(Samsung) saying Codec not available.
Anyone know of all apps I can use to share videos on my TV?
Thanks
I didn't think the AllShare Cast was not available yet.
Ive got a samsung UA46D5000 Led smart Tv. Its got a built in wifi so i don't need the all share dongle. I can stream it directly from my SGS3 to the TV.

It’s my understanding that Allshare Cast is not available yet. When it is available there’ll be another option under Settings/Wireless and networks/More settings.
If you want to stream video to your TV then use Settings/Wireless and networks/Nearby devices, this turns the S3 into a DLNA server allowing you to share your media files with your Smart TV.

Hi,
I can stream just fine. The issue is that some formats dont play on the tv. It just says codec not found whereas they play fine on the device itself. Shouldnt it be able to stream any format that can be played on the device?

It depends on the TV, the TV needs to have the appropriate codec to play it. They’ve got better over time and my D7000 plays more or less any format I throw at it. I can only assume that your D5000 doesn’t have the required codec. The only alternative would be to transcode the video into one that is supported by your TV.

First of all streaming videos to your tv via dlna has nothing to do with all share cast, which means your device's screen will be entirely mirrored on your dlna capable tv (not necessarily samsung), using a certified dongle.
Second, the error message you get is due to the fact that your tv does not have the appropriate codec to play your file (the tv's media player is used for the playback). The exact same error message you will get if you try to play the same file with your tv via a usb flash drive or external hdd using the tv's buit in media player.

Thanks for the info. But what is weird is that the videos shot by
s3 are also giving this error. Shouldn't Samsung devices be compatible with each other that way?

The irony is that if Allshare Cast were available now, codec compatibility wouldn’t be a problem, the latest Samsung SmartTV's will just mirror anything the S3 can display without a dongle, and the same with the dongle but the TV only needs an HDMI port, it doesn’t need to be DLNA capable.

It would be a bit much to expect a TV made some years ago to be fully compatible with devices made today. Video compression and new codecs are being developed and improved all the time. Having said that it may be worth checking the Samsung support site to make sure you have the latest firmware for your TV.

I must admit, your post frightened me a bit and the first thing I did was to make a short 1080p movie with my SGSIII and stream it to my Samsung LE32C650 tv. Well now I'm ok, since it worked just fine, so you definitely must check to see if you have the latest firmware for your tv. The easiest way to do that is directly from your tv's menu, under Support - Software Upgrade - By Online. Hope this helps.
Thanks for all the info guys.
Well, I just got prompted to update for the dongle software so why don't you give it a try to see if it works with the smart tv, without the actual dongle. I will order the dongle next week, as it sounds much better than the wired microusb to hdmi adapter.

I tried to send a video I recorded on my S3 to my Samsung UE40D6575 LED Smart-TV. It came up on the tv-screen if I wanted to play the material from I9300, though I was stupid enough to press cancel because my kida wanted to watch television. Now I can't seem to get this to function again. I have deleted the I9300 from the tvs "NO"-list (???), so that shouldn't be a problem.
Does anyone know what I mean, and what can I do about it (if anything)?
Thanks for answering!
I guess restart both the tv and the sgs3
Or go to your wifi and press Forget so it forgets the network and then reconnect.
Both the tv and phone have been restarted several times with no luck
Try reseting your TV.

Is there any info about what Samsung consider 'latest SmartTV'?
Will C series be able to accept Allshare Cast?
Currently on my UE46C8000 I have (under Allshare setup menu) options for 'ScreenShare' (where TV auto-recognized and allowed my 'GT-I9300'. But is ScreenShare same as AllshareCast?
Also, is AllshareCast app already available for S3 (but just not working), or it will be available later on? Since I cant find it on phone, nor on any app store.

I haven’t found any official info on which TV’s will be supported. So this is pure speculation but I’m guessing that it will support the same TV’s that Samsung Smart View on Play supports, which still isn’t available for the S3 yet.

Just to back this up, it also works great on my LE46C650 (these are the 2010 series TVs)
I will not be monitoring this thread, I have a T-Mobile T999 but wanted to share this with the SGS3 community at large. Feel free to post results, and any additional mods (ie. Getting it to work with ASOP Rom's) in my original thread
For some reason, beyond my comprehension, Samsung have this great app, but have yet to open it up to the SGS3. I have been resorting to downloading it and installing it on my HTC HD2 (Running CM9) backing it up with Titanium, and then copying the backup over to my SGS3, and restoring the backup. A bit round about, but works.
The App, for those that don't know, allows you, with a Samsung high-end TV or BR-Player, use the app to not only as a remote, but as a second mirrored screen, with audio. Great for trips to the kitchen, bathroom, outside, or in another room (although range is limited by your router).

While technically only SGS2, it works with SGS3 stock rooted rom, but should work on most with a stock base. It will not work on CM9/10 and ASOP ROM's but you could give it a try and let me know.
Here is the actual app, I extracted it from my Titanium backup figuring someone could use it until Samsung get around to updating the Market to let you just download it. The only thing I can't get to work is Bluetooth power on. I can pair with my TV, but it just doesn't show up until I have turned it on. I also had an issue with it working over the the 5Ghz 802.11n band, but with 3.1.9 that doesn't seem to be an issue anymore.
Version 3.1.9 - 39MB - Confirmed Working for me with 2011 PDP51D8000 Model
Version 3.2.0 - 40MB - Also Confirmed working

What about the 3.2.1 version? Can anyone share it?
Thanks, i didnt even know such an app exists
Anyone? I cannot download it with the sgs3, but could be done with a sgs2. Please share the 3.2.1 version.
Hello,
I have an issue with the App. I can´t see, what there stands. The Display always turns on and off.
I´m using Omega v34.
Edit: I´ve connected it with TV. It is working fine. But the Display turn on and off issue still exists.
App is working with Omega v34. But for me only the remote control and the gaming control.
NO dual view and the other stuff. My TV is UE46C7700.
Screen off and on issue is after device reboot gone.

I can no longer access the new file on my old HD2, it no longer shows up. Tehrefore I can't post 3.2.1 but the viersions here work, and nothing major in 3.2.1 that would require an update and if you look online, it says nothing new. So while 3.2.1 may be nice to upgrade too, I can't see any requirement to do so, if the version you have works.
Just read teh comments on the 3.2.1 version of the app, looks like 3.2.1 doesn't work more than it works. Numerous comments about it breaking dual view, or issues with Flicker. So if 3.2.0 or 3.1.9 work for you, then stay with them
Dual View is only guarenteed to work on Samsung TouchWiz based ROM's. I have it working on both my GIII (Now ith Jelly Bean) and Galaxy Tab 10.1. Custom ROM's may not include all the components that are required to make this work. I doubt anything in 3.2.1 will change this, and make it work for some who aren't working now. Both the TV and the phone have to be compatible or you just get a very large file for a remote control.
Also in the main thread, see link in OP, there is an even earlier version for those to try who are having problems...
works great
bluetooth power on : (selected model tv only.. 7000 and 8000 series have this. others , wouldnt know)
first start app you would turn off bluetooth and wifi and let the app complain about the missing radio and quit app (clean memory in taskmanager to be sure)
now pair your tv > within 50cm reach of the TV (security feature)
turn off bluetooth
start app and wait for it to nag about missing bluetooth. turn on bluetooth with the prog and see in the popup if your tv is listed as paired. if not do the pairing again. (it needs a few tries sometimes) press back and now see if it shows your tv and press bluetooth power on icon and wait for the tv to respond and after that to connect to wifi and connect to your phone.. takes about 40 secs or so.
3.20 works best for s3 i9300 on stock rom
app requires DRM , decryption service and samsung movieplayer and offcourse a samsung build.prop
3.21 porting to s3 > not so easy, you may want to read a little more about the crappiness of it.
edit: using version 3.20 still works great with 4.1.2 luxemburg stock rom rooted with CMW philz touch, modded bootloader, led-mod and signed multiwindowmod, apex 2.4 pro launcher. BT power-on works. in multi-window with other app works. if u dont see controls in fullscreen turn off gesture control and or taskbar hiding or just press where the button supposed to be normally. version 3.22 from market doesnt work, only remotecontrol.
working on perfect on 4.1.2
I am paired but still doesn't show up to power on.

I have the 2011 PDP51D8000 Model TV, and have looked at all menu options, but still can't seem to get power on to work. Not a big deal, would be nice, but I can live without it. Just glad Dual view works flawlessly on both my SGS3 and Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Finally!
I've been looking a long time to get my remote back. Thanks a lot for this!
I can also confirm that this app works fine with Samsungs C8705.
Too bad i got a UE37ES5500 TV and it doesn't support this option.
It works on Galaxy S5
Tested and Working perfectly on Galaxy S5
Can't fint TV.
This app can't find my TV (C8705) any more and I'm using a Nexus 4 with Lollipop. I think it stopped working before I got Lollipop but I'm not sure. I've set a DMZ between my device and TV in my firewall, so that can not be the problem.
Any ideas?

It is a non-Supported TV, and there is no way to make it magically support this technology. The only way to get it to work is to sell your TV and buy a supported model. I included the supported hardware list in my post, and as 40D6000 I believe is a 2011 LCD TV, it just wont work, ever as it isn't an LED above 7000 or plasma 8000 model. This is a limitation of your TV hardware, and nothing the app or your phone are able to change. Samsung chose not to include the hardware/software in lesser model TV's, to support this function, and for 2011 TV's you can't upgrade the hardware.
You are not alone, there are many 1 star reviews on Google play because the app doesn't support all TV's. Although to give it 1 Star because the TV isn't supported is quite unfair to the app, especially when it clearly states in the description that the TV is not supported.
This app will only work with supported TV's and certain BR Devices. Unless you have a supported device, tehr is no way to make it work. The description in the first post clearly lays out the requirements.
thnx so very much for sharing this
works on my Samsung S3 32gb international android 4.04 phone with UExxES8000 1018.1 firmware
version 3.20 works fine over 56mbit wifi and 5ghz wifi and bluetooth power-on works too (hold phone closer then 1 meter from the TV and pair from the phone after starting the smartview app. it will tell you to turn on bluetooth and pair TV, which is the right moment to do so)
No issues
App operates without flaws:
App version 3.2.0
Galaxy Note 2, jelly bean 4.1.1, T-Mobile
Tv model: un46d8000, samsung
Both stock, not rooted
Bt operation also works
I've determined the app works flawlessly as long as I am a running a touchwiz variant rom. If I use any Originaly ROM (AOKP or CM) it doesn't work properly. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issue?

Thanks for sharing this app with us. I have a galaxy s3 an a 46D8000 and it works.
I would like to know if there is any way to make this app to work with ipad2, the samsung app from appstore needs 2012 model tvs.
Thanks again.
I have new Nexus 7 running clean rom and a Samsung 2013 smart tv. On my TV I go to screen mirroring and then it waits for a device to connect. On the Nexus 7 I go to wireless display and search. It finds my Samsung tv. I click on it, the nexus 7 says connecting and the TV says connecting to device as well. Then the TV says device connected. On the nexus it still says connecting. Then the TV goes black and then says screen mirroring has ended. On nexus it goes from connecting to my Samsung TV not being on the list anymore. On my Verizon galaxy s3 screen sharing works fine.
Do I need the allshare app on the nexus for this to work correctly? If so is there a version compatible with the new nexus 7?
If I don't need allshare app is there a mod I can do to get this to work?
Thanks for any help.

Do you have a samsung phone, with allshare cast on it? if not you may want to check for a software update / firmware update for your TV as the allshare cast dongle required a update for "Screen Mirroring" to work instead of being locked down to just samsung devices with "AllshareCast", even though AllshareCast is Miracast, which is what the n7's screen mirroring is.

Yes my Verizon Galaxy S3, which works fine on the TV and does have allshare cast on it. I did a firmware update on my TV about a week ago and just tried the screen mirroring today with that result. I will try again when I get home to see if maybe the nexus just needed a reboot and to see if any new firmwares came about on my TV since the last one.

Yes my Verizon Galaxy S3, which works fine on the TV and does have allshare cast on it. I did a firmware update on my TV about a week ago and just tried the screen mirroring today with that result. I will try again when I get home to see if maybe the nexus just needed a reboot and to see if any new firmwares came about on my TV since the last one.

I don't know that it's applicable to tv's also, but does your s3 have the allsharecast dongle software update, that was updated July 30th installed? It does kind of have a small reference to tv's in the app description, but it's horribly translated to English , so who knows what all it applies to really lol

I was just gonna respond that yes it does and I see what that does now, when I get home I will see if I can get that to work and then try the nexus 7 again. Thanks for your help.

I have new Nexus 7 running clean rom and a Samsung 2013 smart tv. On my TV I go to screen mirroring and then it waits for a device to connect. On the Nexus 7 I go to wireless display and search. It finds my Samsung tv. I click on it, the nexus 7 says connecting and the TV says connecting to device as well. Then the TV says device connected. On the nexus it still says connecting. Then the TV goes black and then says screen mirroring has ended. On nexus it goes from connecting to my Samsung TV not being on the list anymore. On my Verizon galaxy s3 screen sharing works fine.
Do I need the allshare app on the nexus for this to work correctly? If so is there a version compatible with the new nexus 7?
If I don't need allshare app is there a mod I can do to get this to work?
Thanks for any help.

I have exactly the same case here - unable to use my Samsung smart tv as wireless display for my N7 flo. Any ideas?
Exact same here with Nexus 4 and new 75F6300, with all updates.
Nexus 4 works fine with LG TVs that I tried.

So it should be samsung TV incompatibility then.
I never had luck getting this to work, but I wondered if the google chromecast, or any device in its $35 price range, can be used to successfully screen mirror from the new nexus 7.

Guys, if you are running custom roms and kernels, the chances of screen mirroring is near zero.
I see reports of some custom roms and kernels for my S4 with working display mirroring but that's like a 1 in 20 chance and I never could find one that worked for me. However, stock rom and kernel (even rooted) worked for me on the S4.
I'm running 4.3 stock rooted on my N7 and miracast work fine as well.
I'm using PTV3000 as the sink device so may be different from standalone TVs.

Your so right about that I have a locked bootloader xperia z on existenz rom based on stock xperia rom and I get screen mirror errors but the developer of the rom says its fine for him but ive only experience these errors since kitkat was released for xperia z ive been on about three different custom roms based on stock for xperia z and only one of those roms had working screen mirroring @niaboc79 please fix this problem ive been asking you for months cany you promise me it will be fixed in v2.0 please dont care how long it takes
Here it is 4 years later and I still can't find a solution.
Custom marshmallow roms usually support miracast, it should work with your older TV, nougat does not as I know,that's why I bought a used chromecast2. May a Dev will take care for it in the near future for nougat.
I have a Galaxy s7 and I'm screen mirror from my fire stick and it's been working just fine I been watching movies, now when I try to screen mirror to watch more movies it keeps saying smart view connection ended. What does this means?
Anybody know how to configure the Videocon d2h HD settop box remote control on Xperia ZL Remote Control App.. I tried all the manual setup procedure and was able to configure buttons using d2h remote control, but on settop box it is not working. I was able configured Samsung tv remote and zl remote control with samsung lcd tv working absolutely fine without any issues. But why it is not working with the d2h settop box. Is there any difference between tv receiving signals and settop box receiving signal.
Please help if anyone has idea about this.
Thanks
Did you use the Samsung control preset that came with the app?
or you set it by manual learning
and on what version are you on?
the remote app was broken before 4.2 .67 firmware
that was the version where it worked fine for me
4.3 is fine too
all other earlier version has the problem when you use the learning function(it learns it but when you press it it doesn't work)
Same problem here,
Currently on stock 4.3 version, even tested with 4.2.2(previous version)
I m not able to configure my FastWay Hd Set Up Box remote by manual method..
It didnt work on STB...
Only default configured codes are working Like SonY Led Remote and Samsung
For those all who have manual learning problems. Its a hardaware defect. You can get your device replaced by sony

Yes, sony told me the same. But it worked on 4.1, and I read a comment where someone wrote that bug got fixed in 4.3.
I still have hope...
Xperia ZL, 4.2.2 Stock (.67), rooted

go in manual mode select cable tv set top box and configure it with ur remote .Dont select satellite set top box
Folks do anyone of you have an APK for this Remote Control App? I want to try this on my Nexus.
I had the same problem when I bought my ZL
problem was fixed on 4.3 update
or you could try flashing AOSP ROM
and use the AOSP remote control to test it(the app is in app & theme section)
