Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to share media from my I9000 with my windows Vista desktop (connected via LAN)?
When I tried scanning from my phone it could not find any device. I think this maybe because perhaps a wired connection cannot be connected to DLNA? Could someone let me know if there is some way to do this?
TIA
Dear friend
You can access to your mobile files and folders via Wireless lan with WEBSHARING software.
Also I am interested to know how can I share my files in my PC with My Galaxy S
Actually I am looking for streaming not just file sharing.
Is there any way to get this within Windows itself?
make sure your phone is connected via wifi in the same network with any device that runs a DLNA compatible player (such as Windows Media Player) then run "allshare" and you will see the name of the computer(s) with the player...
I hope this helped.
it doesnt work for me. my computer is connected via a cable , while my mobile phone connects wireless to the same router..
Doesn't work for me either. In the Media Player "media sharing" I am unable to see the Galaxy S.
i just tried. it's working on my windows 7 32bit.
running the latest Wmedia Player. which i believe is 11?
streaming media FROM my phone, streaming media TO my phone.
i'm using JPY from samfirmware.
oh yea i'm connected to WIFI on both my laptop and my phone.
It doesn't matter how your pc is connected to your network (wifi or cable). You should "see" the computer that runs DLNA player via allshare and choose it. After that, your computer sees the gallery of your phone and is able to browse and play media from it.
Edit: Galaxy S shows up in the media player's library

Wifi Streaming - Strange Problem
I am hoping someone may have come across the same problem as me because I have searched this forum and have not seen anything like this.
I have been trying to access my Music stored on my main PC via the wireless router which is connected to it (Netgear DG834G V3). I am using Pocket Player 3.5 with the new upnp plugin. I am trying to connect my HTC Touch which can connect to the internet via the wifi router no problem and I can also look at shared folders in Pocket player through adding a network folder address. I can play files this way also but the directory structure of my hard disk is long winded and I just wanted to browse the traditional way by artist/album etc..
I have found that Windows Media Player 11 does not recognize the Touch as a Upnp device and when I try and Network share on pocket player nothing happens. I have also tried Resco Explorer and it cannot map the drives also.
Something I found strange though is that I also have a laptop which is also connected to my Wireless router and when I opened WMP11 on the laptop it shared the files on the Touch. I looked at all the Network/Firewall settings etc.. on both the main PC and the laptop and they were almost identical so I cannot understand why my main PC isn't allowing the connection. The only difference is that my PC is wired to the Netgear and the Laptop is connecting through wifi.
If I actually plug the Touch directly into my main PC via the USB cable and close down Active Sync the Touch can suddenly read the WMP11 content on the main PC (although it gives the Touch a different MAC Code) however it will loose it as soon as I disconnect the cable.
Can anyone help! Am I missing something really obvious?
1. is it possible to connect your phone (like usb mass storage) to your computer via wi-fi through my network? if so, how? i can sort of get streaming to work through allshare and windows media player but i can not move files , only stream.
2. i have not used samsung media hub yet because i dont want to sit there and watch a movie on a 4" screen. so my question here is , if you rent a movie on the media hub, can it be played on a computer either by usb or streaming?
to help answer these questions, heres my set up:
phone: sprint ( usa) samsung epic. no mods have been done to my phone, everything is factory.
PC: quadcore cpu , geforce gtx 275, 4gb ram, running windows 7 64bit. my pc is hooked up to a westinghouse 47" 1080p monitor.
Search for "xda samba android" in google. Should be like the first link.
I use Websharing and WiFi File Explorer. Look them up.
those apps you mentioned work great for photos ive taken or videos ive recorded, however it does not work with media hub. i tried streaming and it will not find the movie on my device , i hooked my phone up directly to my pc and the movie file is not supported by windows. so im still looking for a way to watch media hub files on my computer. any suggestions?
Nope..Media Hub has the DRM :/...and All share is not compatible..so that ends that.
I need to share videos on my phone to my work laptop.
I cannot install programs on my work laptop (So VLC won't do. Neither will portable VLC, I think.)
I already tested I can run barnacle wifi tether.
I can create adhoc on laptop as well.
I can't use my laptop to use the work network to do non work functions. I doubt they'll not mind a few websites, but streaming videos will definitely get me in trouble.
I can bypass this by streaming it from my phone. No business bandwidth used, no programs installed, no files copied onto the computer.
I assume you're not allowed to connect USB storage to the work laptop? Otherwise you could just put the phone in USB mass storage mode and play files that way.

Forgot about that one. I wouldn't want to try. They've given us password protected, metal encased, waterproof USB sticks to move things between work computers. It would be much better to stream media.
Oh, also, Windows Media Player is installed. And Real as well, I think.
If either can function as a DLNA/UPNP client, the DLNA app preloaded on the Atrix has the ability to stream media stored on the phone.

So, what would need to be done?
DLNA running on phone. I guess WiFi from either. But, how do I access it if I can't install DLNA software onto laptop?
Windows Media Player can act as a DLNA client. Google is your friend.

Looks like there no "find media that others are sharing" option on WinXP. But we're supposed to switch to Win7 soon.
Any other options in the meanwhile?
I've managed to connect to my phone through barnacle, but then I can't run Wifi File Explorer to stream media. Barnacle makes the phone at 192.168.5.1, but I don't know how to access files to stream by connecting to a URL through a media player. Is there a way to serve streaming media from on the phone to a computer when running barnacle?
I can't seem to connect to an ad hoc network created by my laptop. I keep getting stuck on "Obtaining IP address". Apparently theres a file that can be edited to remedy this, but some people have made their wifi broken without being able to fix it by restoring the original file. Has anyone done this on the Atrix?
Has anyone had any luck streaming music from their phones to their computer's speakers via bluetooth?
My internet connection at work sucks so I can't stream music from Google Music. I don't want to listen straight from my phone because then I might miss IMs or meeting reminders. Ideally, I'd like to stream the music I have pinned on my phone through my computers audio to get the best of both worlds.
So I successfully paired my phone (4.3) to my computer (win8) via bluetooth, but I can't seem to do anything with streaming audio. I can transfer a file no problem. If I go into devices > nexus 4 > properties > services, it just shows two "unknown services" which I've tried updating the drivers on to no avail.

Not sure about bluetooth. But there is an awesome app called 'AirDroid', it allows you to use your phone on your computer by accessing it locally on the wifi. You can create an ad-hoc and do the same.

After much toil, I figured out how to get it working. For my laptop, I had to download the ThinkPad Bluetooth package:
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032149
From what I gathered, the default bluetooth drivers provided by Microsoft do not support a2dp. If you don't have a ThinkPad, look for drivers from the manufacturer.
Hi, I just released an app that lets you stream the music from your phone and play it in any browser over wifi as long as both devices are connected to the same wifi network. It's called Weezzler.
You can get it here.
so my g2 is pretty much refusing to share data via wireless storage or media servers, it fails at airplay, and the thing won't even show up as a drive when I'm using media sync with a usb connection to my ps3 or mac.
anyone know how I can fix this?
