hello all,
i have a droid, a dinc and an x. my problem is that on my droid and dinc i can go to a website called iphonehentai.com. when i try to go to the movie section it does not allow it on the dx. i am rooted and on my droid and dinc but am confused as to why i cannot gain access to this website and stream video to the phone and then use the tv out option to stream to my tv, computer etc. is there something i am missing/needs to be turned on etc? i mean the dlna function is cool if you have anything besides home videos to stream in my opinion. please assist if possible.
thank you

thanks for the help
I read on another forum, of which I can't seem to find now, this exact same question, and the person had to download "droid live" from the market and it worked.
i tried droid live to no avail. bump
Are you talking about streaming OTA like from media at home to you at work? or Just stream it over your Wifi? Does ORB have a droid client?
Looks like you can use ORB which is a Client installed at home and then a "web connected device" can stream from your feed. Doesn't mention particular devices, maybe theres an Iphone client but I posted this quickly and didn't read much.
You have to download an app from Market DROIDLIVE lite try this .

He's trying to stream a radio station. The link is in his post, the station website is www.kibz.com
The stream page is http://www.kibz.com/pages/3397314.php
The problem is the station website runs a media player through abcast, which requires a plug in. Just above the listen now button, it says click here for mobile users. If you goto the page on the phone and press the click here, the phone pops up a box that says "the content is not supported on the phone. no application can be found to open this file. do you still want to download it."
If you go ahead and says yes to download, it just downloads it, then you click on it and it says error, no application found to open it. And yes I have droid live on my phone.
I would also be curious how to get this to work since a local station carries my college team and when i'm out of town i could still listen, but i have the same problem.
I also tried searching for the stream itself in droid live, but it never finds anything.
it seems like Orb lets you connect to radio stations. But if the stream is encoded for a specific player, good luck finding something that will decode and play it.
Has anyone tried the new PlayOn app available for Android? I was disappointed to learn of Netflix's presence on Android will only encompass future Qualcomm powered phones. (Still hoping someone will be able to modify it). But PlayOn seems like the next best thing for Netflix streaming to our Android powered HD2's.
Just looking for any review or feedback. I will download the server app to my computer tonight and give an update for those that are interested.
Update: No one interested? Oh well. I said I'd update so... Confirmed. Netflix does indeed work with this app. Although, I had problems with the actual app. Was able to log into my Netflix account through the app; browse and view my instant queues but it wouldn't play for some reason. (Might be due to my slow internet from within my house though). But using stock browser and going to the playon mobile site I was able to stream my movies. Hulu did not work for some reason though. I have a modified flash to use with my hulu app and i thought that might be the problem. Uninstalled it and installed flash from market but hulu still asks me to install flash even going through playon. So not sure what to make of it. All in all: use hulu app if you want hulu. use playon if you want netflix. =]
What rom and version of flash player are you using. Not working on core droid rom for me.
NexusHD2 Gingerbread by tytung. And I use a modified apk of flash I found somewhere on xda. Lets me play Hulu. I think it was in the Nexus One threads somewhere. I don't remember.
i tried it. its slow. it works
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
I have had this software for quite some time and I must say it is great, best app I have. Not only for Netflix access on my GTab but all the other content I can watch on my phone as well as my tablet. More than worth the price, I can't imagine not having this software and app. I am able to stream videos from my home computer ,using my HD2 as a wifi router, to my GTab. The video quality over 3G is more than acceptable and the stream is usually steady enough to watch a movie or a live sporting event using ESPN 3 (yes it gives you access to that plus Hulu and about 15 othe chanels) I know I sound like a commercial but I have no stake in the company. Its a great piece of software that I feel everyone who watches online content would love and appreciate.
I know this topic is from while ago, but since it discusses PlayOn, I didnt want to open new one.
I installed PlayON as well. Server runs Ok on my PC, I am able to watch Hulu with my FAT+ and TV.
Recently got HTC Sensation 4G. Installed the PlayOn app, in the Server on my PC I enabled MObile access, router configured automatically, Mobile access test is green - passed.
Here is the problem - on my phone I can see the server, I can browse channels, but when i go to a show, I just see cover art and few lines of info in a table below the cover art.
Nothing is clickable and cant make it start anything.
I am using LAN access if that matters.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Playon issue with Rooted Gingerbread Bionic
I am having similar issues with my new rooted Bionic. My rooted Droid2 worked fine yesterday - but, my Bionic does not stream Playon on wifi or on 4g/3g. I don't know if it is an issue with being rooted - since I rooted the Bionic as soon as got it. I am able to find the server and browse channels, however, it will not play videos. It displays the first frame and then just goes black and eventually displays "Stream not found null". Any suggestions would be appreciated.
First post..Long time reader. My apologies if this needs to be somewhere else. Have a rooted Incredible with 2.2. Have read other threads, but am still trying to find a decent app or website for LIVE TV. I am NOT interested in video clips, old TV shows, movies or the like. Only LIVE TV like Espn, etc. ADTHE is somewhat helpful, but half the channels do not work. Some channels request that you download Veetle or Vshare. Please correct me, but I do not believe Veetle works on a mobile browser, and while I downloaded Vshare, it doesn't seem to do anything to help. Am I doing something wrong? I can in fact get some channels to work on ADTHE, but as I said, some just don't load; i.e Nickleodeon, SyFy, etc. Do any of you pros here know of any other app I need, or if there is a Veetle app for Android, or if I need to do something different. I have not only the stock browser, but also have Skyfire and Dolphin, but I get the same results with all of the browsers. This is a great forum, and I appreciate your help. thanks.
Orb.com
I put a tuner card in my pc and use orb.com website not the paid app to watch everything my tuner can tune. Also gives me access to all my music, recorded tv, folders, and can steam the webcam. Cheaper than a Slingbox and legal.
Thanks for your reply. Are you watching live TV on your PC or your Incredible? I know how to watch on my PC, but am trying to find a decent, reliable way to watch on my phone. I have checked the Market, and can't seem to find a TV tuner for mobile, or any other TV apps. Believe me, I have tried them all. If ADTHE would actually show all of the channels in their content list, that would be fine. But too many are always offline, or the like. Thanks again for your response. Anybody else know how to make all of those ADTHE channels actually work, especially Nickleodeon and SyFy? Please, live only.
I watch from my phone, anything my pc has on it or that the tuner can get, including webcams..
Orb will stream to most smart phones, you can set the output to flash, windows media .asx, or winamp .pls...
If you have Apple gadgets and the webpage wont work, try the free OrbLive app. Reviews say the paid version is kinda buggy.. I just got an touch 4th gen and it is not wanting to play... I have used Treo's, Blackberries, WinMo 6.5, and Android and have had it work great.. not sure what's up with this crapple right now...
Never knew you could do this, thanks for the info.
Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone has had any success streaming media to their A7. I currently have a NAS drive on my network and stream media to all my other devices (Archos 70, Archos 5 Android, EVO, etc.) but for some reason I cannot get the A7 to actually play anything from this network location.
I have been able to navigate to the files themselves, but playing them has not worked out so well. I've tried a variety of Apps and different file formats, but none seem to work. I can attempt to open files, and even get prompted to use various Apps, but nothing seems to work after that, it just fails. Anyone have any ideas or success with this effort please let me know as this is a biggie for me.
Sorry if this is a dup question, as I could not find anything about this for this device in particular.
And many thanks to Dexter, you've made this device surpass it's otherwise limited capabilities. Seems silly such a quality product is being left behind by the Stream, but this seems to be the model of all tablet makers these days. Pump them out as fast as possible regardless of full functionality and forget about them a month later!
The only way I've gotten streaming to work is by using PlayOn.
hi I can access all my movies on my hard drives and play on my a7 this way
download TVersity media server from tveristy.com. I just use the free version. It will change your home page when you install it so you will need to change it back. Install that on your pc and then add your movie files to the library.
On your a7 download a app called skifta from the market and install that. when you run this choose a media source choose TVeristy media server. Under player choose your a7.
then choose browse and play media you will see your library files you added in tversity and some other stuff. You will need a video player installed on your a7. I have act 1 video player and also rockplayer. It will let you choose which to use when you select movie.
select one and your movie should start. Your movies have to be in a compatable format.
it also will let you play music and view photos
I also have a wd live movie box on my tv. With this same setup I can redirect the movie to wdlive box by choosing it as player and the it will playback the movie on my tv.
Thanks for the advice (both of you). I was really hoping for a more direct approach though. I've used apps like Orb that require you to run a host computer, and my NAS drive (Buffalo Linkstation) has a web app built in, but both these methods have proven very slow and often frustrating when trying to access via mobile networks. It just seems odd to me that the A7 doesn't do this while most other Android hardware does. Granted I'm more familiar with Archos products and they specialize in media players. Will keep trying though, Thanks!

the platform you refer to is different from Tegra2/Nvidia, and you can blame Nvidia for the stock codecs they support.. they partly added mkv's now in latest update.. but 1080p mkv's still stutter on a7 and other tegra2 devices..
LG with their Optimus 2X added their own custom player, and since its incorporated into the framework, its hard to make it run on other devices for now.. but nvidia is primary source for what we can use it for now..
archos is a different story and they havent got what tegra2 can offer for the future, so it might play alot of media's but not perfect for android at all.
Thanks for the info Dex!
Think I'm gonna get a XOOM (been drooling over some honey), then I can officially make my A7 a tinker toy!
by the way, the new 1.41 rom kicks ass, the motoblur keyboard is soo much better!
I've been searching for a long time and haven't been able to come up with anything. I'm basically looking for a way to display the screen on my nook color via DLNA to the PS3. I know its possible, because i already have the capability to stream video and music from my phone, and with imediashare i can stream from websites too (basically turns nook into a mini roku box without transcoding). Is there an app that replicates the hdmi out found on some phones, but over wifi? I don't want anything for the pc, nor do i want any way to control it remotely. I just want to stream my screen capture to either a PS3 or XBOX 360.
EDIT
I just found an app called Picme that has a live streaming functionality that could be used on the PS3. Unfortunately for me, it also serves to control the android phone remotely, so the FPS is extremely low. I'm looking for something like this that is only one way: phone to ps3 (like a fake HDMI output through DLNA)
Did you try skifta?

Thanks for the reply. That app looks cool, but I don't want to just stream my media. I want to see EVERYTHING that is going on on my screen. Including games, app drawers, etc. I basically want to mirror the screen on my nook and stream it over dlna to a ps3 or xbox 360.
