I don't know if anyone can help me but I figured I could ask. I have a LG BluRay DVD Home theater System that has DLNA ability that is hooked to my HD tv that is not. My home theater reciever is not currently hooked up to my wireless network but I see that the receiver does have a ethernet port in the back. I am mainly trying to connect my galaxy s3 to my tv to stream video etc. Does anyone know if I direct connect the DLNA capable home theater receiver to my wireless router, which will connect it to my wireless network, will I then be able to send info from my galaxy s3 to my theater system which will show up on my TV? Sorry for the noob question but i got to start somewhere.....Any information will help based on my situation of not having a DLNA capable TV lol
Unless i am wrong i dont think you can stream video from your device to the tv. IT has to be content loaded on y our device. Like a movie, song or picture.
Hulu and Netflix and anything you can watch on your device via streaming method will only display on your screen or if you have an MHL adapter.
By using the DLNA app it acts as a media server so you can use your tv/bluray device to brows certain media types on your phone and play them on your tv.
My PS3 is hooked up to my router via the RJ45 jack, and my phone is on the same network via WiFi. They will see each other.
As long as its the same network and the devices are DLNA compatible you should be able to get content off your phone and onto the TV.
Just what the title says: Can i watch my optimum TV by logging in to a VPN (not sure how that works) so my phone thinks im on my home network where i run the newly released Optimum Live TV app for android?? Any help would be appreciated, thanks again.
Hello frineds,
First of all, please forgive me for my imperfect English (It's not my mother-tongue).
I was looking for information on the web, but have not received answers to some questions and I would like to get some of your help, please:
I have a Samsung Tab 3 10.1" (model 5210) tablet and a Sharp TV (not a smartTV) with USB and HDMI inputs.
I would like to watch movies I downloaded to my tablet - on the TV screen and looking for a good way to do it (preferably wireless). I need a way to mirror my tablet on TV, to be specific.
1. Is there any possibility at all? If so:
2. Does ChromeCast doing the work? (Again, we're discussing about downloaded video files from the web, not watching YouTube and similar)
3. If ChromeCast can't do it, is there a wireless device that does this? I heard about "EZcast", what do you think about it? I'd be happy to have your recommendation.
4. If there's no wireless option -what kind of cable will I have to connect the the TV?
5. Other things that I should know? (Video-Audio sync... etc)
Thanks in advance,
PT
I know the Tab 3 8.0" has a screen mirroring function included, but perhaps the P5210 does not.
What version of Android are you running? Is it the stock 4.2 Jelly Bean? I've read that Mircast needs 4.4 and up, and Chromecast needs 4.4.2 and up. Also, I'm unsure if AllShare Cast/Samsung Link is an option for you...
Have you tried the Galaxy HDMI adapter from Samsung's website? Item ET-H10FAUWEGUJ
I have a chromecast and use an app called localcast to play my downloaded videos to my tv. Works really good, pause, play and volume control from device. Though it is not true screen mirroring as the video does not play simultaneously on tablet and tv, it just sends the video to the tv. Hope this helps.
Hi guys, I just got a Fire TV Stick from Amazon.in, but I am facing an issue with prime video contents. I am getting US library in my Fire TV and I am from India.
So, when ever I am trying to stream I am getting a message We're unable to complete your request.... and there is only an OK button.
Only way I can stream is from the Prime Video android app with the option to play on Fire TV Stick.
All the other streaming apps working fine though. I used to stream contents from US and UK using Smart DNS on my PC, is it happening because of this??
And, also there is no active VPN or Smart DNS proxy on the router. Can anybody help me out with this?
Hi, so ive been trying to mirror my phones screen to my Samsung smart tv wirelessly. I go through all the steps, making sure the phone and tv are on the same wirless network etc. It the tv finds my phone and vice versa but after actually trying to connect . I get connection failed on the phone side and sharing cuts itself off. I saw on another forum that other people had the same issue since the last offical update. Anyone here had this issue or know of a fix?
I haven't seen anyone mention it, but a lot of us use Chromecast with our Smart TV....
