Hello,
at the regular computer I use Windows Media Player to watch IPTV from the Internet.
Which app would you recommend to use instead for Acer Iconia A500?
Thanks!
I found it by my own.
If anybody else is interesting...
To watch mms streaming we could use Vplayer (from market).

I have the TyTN and would like to stream video and audio but suspect I need a program designed to do that (?) I have pocketv and tcpmp -- can someone tell me what I need to do?
Thanks!
I am using a slingbox and their wm5 player. This will allow you to watch live TV or any other video source connected to the slingbox.
the cost is about 150 for the box and 30 for the software, but it is awesome!
I can watch live tv (and able to change the channel) on the train ride home.

Hi
Also you can give ORB a try. ORB is free and it works fine for me.

The the free version at http://www.umediaserver.net/.
It's very good and with a fixed IP you can watch and change TV channels anywhere.

can u elaborate on how this exactly works and what i need to do before i go screwing up my tytn. thanks!!!
You register at www.orb.com and configure your computer with the program/webpage. Then point Pocket IE to www.orb.com and use it. It's very basic and easy, and doesn't harm your TyTN.
I tried to set up a stream on my LAN using VLC. Other computers may view and hear the stream using WMP, but Pocket WMP refuses to play it because "The parameter was not set correctly" (or something like that). Anyone know what's wrong?
With Unreal Media Server server you need a tv card in your pc.
I have an old Pinnacle RAVE TV card in my PC. I've installed Umedia server on my PC and set this up to capture and stream the tv card. I can watch decent quality TV from anywhere in the house using the free Umedia player. I also have a fixed IP address from my ISP. Having unblocked the relevant firewall port, I can also watch TV via 3G connection, albiet at reduced quality because of the lower bandwidth available.
There is a PC and Pocket PC client player available from http://www.umediaserver.net/download.html. The Pocket PC client is all that is needed on your TyTN.
This is a useful document http://www.umediaserver.net/StreamingAdvices.pdf. HTML version available at http://www.umediaserver.net/source.html.
Is there anyway to stream local media (video/music/images) from your home pc to the HD2 when both of them are connected on the same network?
My N82 and N97 did that flawlessly, (by media server), was wondering if I can do something similar via Tversity installed on my pc.
Thanks.
I'm not aware of a DLNA client for windows mobile, but TVersity comes with a web interface. Why not just use that?
Or, you can use pocket player with the uPNP plugin to stream audio, I am not sure how well video streaming works though as I never could get it to work satisfactoryly.
download tversity for your pc and get tcpmp player for your phone. I have to look into starting a post about this if there isn't one
I am also interested in this feature. I don't understand why Windows mobile doesn't have some sort of media sharing or media extender feature natively. I would like to be able to connect to my wireless network, turn on file sharing, and play a media file on my TV via my Xbox. I know that the HD2 does not have a video output method (such as the Nokia's, Incredible, Evo, etc), so I would hope to at least be able to make up for it wirelessly.
I was doing this exactly last year with my HD1, using the Network Plugin + CorePlayer/TCMCP so it is possible.
Just browse your network on your HD, find the file, and click Play.
For people who also have a Home Theartre set-up powered by a PC, check out GRemote as a great program to browse files on your HD2 and then launch them/control playback on your TV.
Hey all,
Im using Twonky on mT4G to access my Buffalo Network Media server via WiFi in my home, and it is able to see all of my content.
However, it is not playing my movies.
If I use GMote to access my files (which streams via PC to phone) then I am able to view my movie files when using vPlayer as the video player.
My question is, can I use vPlayer instead of the Twonky media player to watch my movies from the Screen Share browser? If not, is there some other app (maybe a file browser?) that will let me browse and play the files on my Media Server, without needing to have my PC on?
Thanks!

I currently use either Skifta or imediashare combined with moboplayer. As long as you share out a directory with files on your PC over the network you should be able to see and access the files. The A500 is DLNA compatible. It is one of the reasons I purchased it as I saw the xoom was certified.
thanks for the info
On my laptops (win 7) i have the option to send media to my tv(which is also networked)
-right click
-send to (sony bravia)
-enjoy on tv
Is there a way i can achieve the same with my Transformer?
Thanks in advance
Use DLNA? Go to the Mynet app and turn on the TF as a media server. If your TV is compatible with DLNA or Upnp you should be able to connect to it. Or perhaps use any Upnp player (xbox/ps3/boxee...) connected to your TV to use it.
I use (and love) VLC.
VLC on computer with HDMI cable to TV + VLC Remote (android app) lets me sit back on the couch and browse all of my networked media and fully control what plays on the TV from the transformer.
I wouldn't want to play stuff from the transformer directly because it's a little weak at decoding HD content and I don't want to run handbrake on everything
