[Q] Output Android Screen to PS3 - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] DLNA with epic and xbox 360?

I heard somewhere that u can use xbox 360 to dlna with epic. Is this possible? I tried google but cant find anything. I didnt think the 360 had dlna but i read everywhere that u can dlna with ps3 and xbox 360.
PS3 uses a special DLNA protocol, UPnP, and I don't thing the PS3 uses that particular protocol. Look at the specs on the Dlink DNS 323, it has an auto stream compatible with PS3 and XBOX.
any way to use dlna between epic and xbox without the dlink? or is the 360 not compatible?
You could always give the Twonky Mobile server app a try.

First off, are you running the Allshare App on the Epic and trying to configure it from there?

I just want to know if the 360 even supports dlna before i even try. i thought 360 doesnt, but i keep reading that ps3 and 360 both can do dlna. I tried googling but to no avail. I dont have the wireless adapter for the 360, but if it can do the dlna then i might consider purchasing it. So if anyone with a 360 and the wireless adapter for it can try it would be appreciated. I'm not sure if im ever even going to use the feature since my laptop has hdmi, but it would be nice to show it off
I just messed around with this for a few minutes. How I got it to work was :
1. Open windows media center on pc
2. Turn on 360, push the windows circle on the middle of the remote and to to the tab that has media center on it. Open it, you will get a code for setup after a step or two
3. Get the code and go to pc
4. Go to extenders on the pc media center and enter the code
5. It should be set up now
Then go to your phone > all share and let it do its thing. Select the appropriate option and play list items then select xbox 360 media center and it should play.
I played some mp3's without issue. I didn't try any video yet.

Not sure about dlna but upnp for sure.
Thanks Aridon, that was helpful and I have it working now! Now that it is setup, I do enjoy using the DLNA. The phone acts like a remote control which is sweet. Also the sound comes through my surround sound setup instead of the whimpy TV speakers.
on My Desire HD i can Stream to XBOX360
but only in the XBOX360 Media Center Extender Menue...
here what i have done...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794578&highlight=xbox360+dlna&page=6
i also tried mobile Twonky Media Server,
this works in normal XBOX Video Photo or Musik Medu (no Media Center Extender needed) but it dont play my Videos recorded with my Desire HD on my xbox360
Xbox supports dlna but it is only active when connected to a media center. It doesn't make sense dlna should always be active but its not. but that's how I stream from windows media player from windows 7 and epic.
To xbox.

I tried to run install twonky on OSX 10.4.11 the server starts up then shuts itself down and I can't connect to the config page in the browser, it's very frustrating
Just in case anybody is wondering this works fantastic on a ps3 and without needing a pc.

I meant use the twonky app on your phone, it will show up on your xbox as twonky server as long as it is running on your phone and will play any supported content without needing a pc

Yea but it works better on an xbox since you can use the phone as a remote
It is really to bad, I like to use my ps3 to watch media.
I will say I have a samsung tv and the dlna on it is horrendous, nothing works.

Has anybody tried plugging their phone straight in using usb cable?
I tryed pluging the phone into the usb ports and the xbox doesn't detect it. I just recently had to reformat my external hard drive, into Fat32 format, to make it xbox compatiable. I'm guessing you must do the same with yours phones memory card.
Where do I get. this Twonky Media Server?? I searched the market and google,but I can't find it
:edit: I found it in the market,just search twonky not twonky media server, it works pretty awesome streaming to my xbox music works fine, some pictures don't show up and videos I haven't bin able to try because I don't have an internet connection now.
thanks!
sweet. thanks guys.
so to summarize for future readers, go into xbox 360 media center & get code then go into computer media center -> extender -> add code. then, to play from dlna phone (epic, fascinate, etc.) go into xbox 360 media center then use allshare on dlna phone.
worked for me!

How to display movie streaming on TV via HDMI cable

Hi there,
I was wondering if it is possible to display movie streaming on TV via HDMI cable. I tried with Multimedia dock but it seems limited to display photo and video only from Atrix. I haven't tried music yet.
Thanks!
It may be makeshift, but if you do the webtop mod you can just expand the window of the emulated phone. Not sure how well it works tho
Stretching the mirror app in webtop mode works, sorta. The resolution and framerate suffer badly since it's not a true mirror, the phone's display is being rendered within the webtop session. Lotta extra overhead involved with that.
There's some HDMI mirroring threads in the dev section, but last I read it was only portrait mode, which isn't so hot for video playback.

Apply Webtop hack on HDMI , then once is running webtop, flip the actual view of your phone inside webtop a click enlarge. I hope it work, actual using for RDC and working
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
i just watched Rio last night on my TV using the HDMI included. no need to aple webtop hack or anything as it launches the entertainment center. I got options for Movies Music and Video.
at first it said unplayable then i went back to the menu and choose it again and it worked. unless im getting your question wrong it should play right.
I can also say the same for my phone - the media hub thing pops up when I plug my phone into any HDMI device (TV, monitor) and I select movie or photo or music. it was like that even before I hacked my phone, its suppose to work that way.
Or am I misunderstanding your question?

Oh, i might have misunderstood him. I thought he was trying to stream content from his atrix web browser onto the tv.
Thank you for replies folks. What I am trying to do is to display content from a movie streamer app or web browser on tv via HDMI.
I wanted to play streaming audio via HDMI. I applied the HDMI mirroring hack, but unfortunately it only seems to mirror the video, not the audio. :-(

pc remote controller

is there any android to pc remote controller ? like next pause play for media player ?
Gmote 2.0 is good one. Works over WiFi.
there is one literally called "pc remote controller" lol it lets you see what your doing, which is good
theres also "unified remote" which is good for if your away from your computer but can still see the display. has media features, filemanager...etc, and you hav a multitouch mouse for rightclicking too.
these two, along with gmote, ive used, all through wifi. ive noticed all three tend to drop connection / difficulty connecting in the first place, thats why i had three of them, but this may have been a laptop/network/firewall issue.
(btw, all require you to install the server-side version on the pc, and be running when you want to use it.
I use itap mobile touchpad. Works great and offers gestures for two fingers for scrolling and stuff.
It also has a menu thing for volume and player control with pause play mute and stuff. I'm happy with it
Unified remote is pretty good especially because it has a whole range of remotes for various programs

I would recommend you XBMC!!!
It's a media center that can be controlled with any android device and play almost every kind of media that I know (mp4, mkv, avi, divx... It even plays img, iso and many more)
Give it a try!!
I use phone my pc. My computer on my phone and I control everything like I'm sitting at my desk. If anyone wants it I will up the apk. Let me know.

I would like to know that as well, I've read you can stream via DLNA/Allshare to a Samsung TV, but it seems those apps only stream a local file. Also I wonder whether the Nexus 7 is capable of downloading the stream whilst streaming it along to the TV.

Too expensive i think. What I will try out is a Samsung MHL cable (see Amazon) and attaching a WiiMote to the device. This should transfer the screen/audio while giving me the freedom to control it from the couch.
As of now, I have testes Plex Media Server in conjunction with the Plex App on the Nexus, which is really impressive on its own already, since I can for example link every YouTube Video I like (via myplex) and stream that from my PC to the TV (even without the Android App, since the TV recognizes the Plex Media Server on its own via DLNA!). I can also stream my Video Folders to Tablet and/or TV whenever I like. The only downside of this is that I have to have the PC running.
For streaming videos from the Google Play store I think iMediashare will be sufficient, since one can select whichever file residing on the tablet and stream it to the TV. I could not test it with Play Store Videos yet, since I get the error that I have downloaded the complimentary Transformers 3 to the maximum of devices already (which I haven't) whenever I click the download option in the Google Video Player. But from what I gather, it should be possible to download a video (rent) and instead of viewing it via the Google Video App, open it in iMediashare and stream that to the TV. Using the WiiMote App, it should also have a remote then.
In case one can't open the rental video outside of Google Video App, it should still work using the MHL Cable.
If you check that out, let me know whether it works for you
I will be able to do further testing when my replacement Nexus arrives, since I got and 8GB instead of 16GB version, I will have to wait until I got it swapped.
and therefore do not pile nexus 7...NO HDMI :/
I wait for acer a110

[Q] Screen mirroring using a TV streamer instead of dongle?

I have a brand new panasonic TV streamer (DMP-MST60) that does miracast and DLNA, and also a roku. I want to be able to mirror my S4 to one of those devices, but I cant seem to make it work. I know youre supposed to buy the samsung dongle but that seems like a waste of money. I CAN use an app called ' Twonky Beam' that will let me choose online videos from youtube, vimeo, or any other website and stream them to my panasonic TV streamer or roku. So I know the S4 can see and stream content to both devices, but I want to be able to stream my entire phone and not just videos. Does anyone have any idea of how I would be able to do this? I am rooted. I would VERY much appreciate any help.
Edit: stream to my TV with sound.
