After opening My Net app, I can see my Directv2pc media server is recongnized ny the TF, I can see all my recording on my dvr, but none of them will play. It says fail to load? Is there a way to get this to work?
No, it will not play. You need the encryption key to do it. Feel free to reverse engineer the cyberlink software for directv2pc and share with us. Would love for this to happen but all it is doing is broadcasting dnla but its locked down very tightly. With some creativity though you can actually pull that show off your DVR with just the URL to the show id.
Have fun. Too bad no one knows how to play it though.
Any development on this? Would love to see it working!

Anyone aware of an android app which can stream music to an airport express?
I've done a search and found this project which is exactly what I'm looking for. However the project appears to be idle, or in the early stages.
Know of anything similar?
(bump)
anyone?
Am also looking for this!!

I am also looking for this. There is a program called Airfoil which enables you to stream any audio from a computer through airport express. I was hoping someone had adapted it for android. Haven't found anything yet =(
BTW I'm using EVO 4G on froyo
I also found this for running music to airport from a linux machine. I'm not a developer and don't have a clue how to do it myself but I thought it might be useful.

Any progress, anyone? I would pay for this.
I would pay for this too and so many people dream about such an app, I don't understand why it does not already exist. I use my airport express with airtunes every day. It's so convenient.
Try this:
hyperfine.com/remoteforitunes/default.aspx
Bill171 thanks for the try but that application only allows you to control itunes on a pc. I am actually trying to learn android programming just to try and get this. If anyone has a idea where to start or some source code from the pc software it would probably help.
recently found something called Twonky Server which is able to stream to devices that are UPnP or DLNA enabled, such as an xbox. Still trying to figure it out, but so far, performance is intermittent and it appears to be pulling music from the phone rather than the phone pushing music to the xbox (ie your phone becomes a server only, not a remote+server). If anyone tries this and finds another way to use it please let me know.
Also 2Player may hold some promise. Haven't got that one to work yet.

There are currently two Android apps able to do that, both available in the Android Market. TunesRemote is free, Remote for iTunes is US$4.99. While free, TunesRemote seems a little flaky to me, while Remote for iTunes is a little more reliable.
well, these two apps are cool, but not yet what (i think) we're looking for here. Remote for iTunes lets U remote control the iTunes app on your desktop, while TunesRemote lets you remote control an iPad or iPod ...
What we want is an android app sending music to an airport with no iProduct at all, no iTunes, no iPad, no iPod ... exactly as Airfoil does on a PC.
My interest in such a product is to listen to Deezer (or youtube, or any app with sound, why not a movie ?) on my android phone, and send the music to my stereo via wi-fi.
I'm also looking for this functionality.
I would definitely pay for an app that allowed me to play my subsonic from my phone/tablet to my airport.

Hey guys theres finally a software that will do it. It will even do pictures and video if its to a 2nd gen apple tv.
Its called Twonky, and its free in the market.
hi folks, there is a app called Honey Player, which will be launched today. this app is able to stream music directly to any Apple AirPort Express or AppleTV.

Android to airport express
Hey,
there is an app available since yesterday called Honey Player, which exactly supports these services. You may try it out! Finally, someone serves our need
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.
For anyone who is interested, I have both a Slingbox Pro & a Hava/Monsoon/Vulkano Pro.
Both of these devices have Android players available to stream live TV to your phone although the Vulkano app is a free DL & the Sling app is $30 (it should be free)
These two devices are completely different & each has distinct advantages over the other. The Vulkano records to a 1 TB hard drive so it works as a DVR but only at 720p resolution & if you want to watch it on your phone you need to record at an even lower resolution.
The Slingbox has two tuners in it, which is really handy as I can hook my High Def cable box to one tuner & basic cable to the other. I can then watch a different channel on the phone than the home TV is set on. The Slingbox will work fine with no TV connection at all, which is a HUGE advantage over the Vulkano which has no internal tuner at all.
The Vulcano HAS to be hooked to a TV & then it only provides a 720p signal to the TV which is a noticeable downgrade in picture quality on my 50" LCD TV. It does provide really good quality streaming video quality however, better than the Slingbox on the phone.
So basically, the Vulkano gives a better image on your phone, but degrades the image on the TV it's hooked to. The Slingbox doesn't need a TV connection at all, but doesn't record & charges for the software app.
there is a way to get free app for sling, sorta if you subscribe to dish i believe their dish app connects to their sling adapter and you can sling for free as long as you are subscribed to their satellite service, one thing i am sure of they have an android app because i have seen it in the market and its free.
Which one will let you burn the show to a disc from your laptop? Or add items already on your dvr to the device to take and watch?

You can do both with the Vulkano.
I also had the slingbox pro and it was giving me a jacked up pic on Win 7, tried everything (some posts said to change win themes, etc.- none of it worked, which is why I got a Vulkano).
The only real drawbacks to the Vulkano are that it doesn't record to your PC in HD and only passes 720p resolution to the TV (from what I've read- not a big deal if you have an HDMI cable running to your TV and component running to the Vulkano, which I do), and it only has capability for one video input at a time (so no hooking up your DVD player and TV at the same time).
One of the cool features of the Vulkano is that you can record whatever program you're watching directly onto the laptop you're watching it on, or you can record it to an external hard drive connected to the Vulkano- you choose. Plus you can program remote signals into the vulkano (I haven't done it yet, so I don't know how well it works). It also records into mp4 format (H.264).
I bought a component switch ($26) that works by remote and plan on hooking up my blue ray that does streaming netflix so I can get whatever I want streaming from netflix onto my HTC HD2 (with dual boot to android- vulkano doesn't have an ap for windows based phones as of yet, I know, it's supposed to- but they can still play the mp4s).
I can let you know how it works out once it arrives if you like.
TestTube / Havafun
This is for anyone stuck with an older tv-box like the Hava Player [myhava.com/havamobileplayer.html] (Monsoon's predecessor to it's Vulkano products) i have. Check out [sites.google.com/site/overvoltagesoft/home/testtube] Over Voltage Soft's TestTube (avail. in market). TestTube is an:
Application for Android powered devices that allows owners of Hava place-shifter devices to watch and control their TV.
TestTube doesn't work like the commercial Hava Software that you've probably downloaded directly from Moonson Media. Instead of requiring a Username and Password to connect to your Hava, TestTube requires only the IP address of the device. Since this is a homebrew project that is unaffiliated with Monsoon Media, TestTube does not have access to the login servers which normally redirect you to your device.

Being that I run Ubuntu and there is no native client support I have to manually watch through the crappy RTSP stream and use just-barely-working scripts (see below) to channel change and all that. See: [sourceforge.net/projects/havafun] Havafun - A package of shell binaries that talk directly to the Hava video streaming device, control key features from the command line (particularly on linux), grab high quality "local" video stream (particularly on linux) for eventual inclusion into MythTV. I imagine almost the same thing could be done from an android box if anyone was interested and proficient enough.
Hope these links helped someone out heh look at me blatantly spamming some guy's app i'll be expecting my check in the mail, overvolatesoft developer guy.
Just wondering if anyone can help on how to stream live from the shield android tv console direct to youtube,hopefully with the webcam showing you in the corner if possible please.They don't explain how and promote twitch whereas I think they should have a choice for both when holding the home button for 3 seconds to broadcast,this is what I want to do webcam and onscreen game broadcast to youtube live.

Please any help for streaming to youtube from a nvidia shield android tv,I don't want to use twitch they seem to be bias towards twitch at nvidia,so guessing there's money involved here and they are not allowing apps to run as far as I can tell this is the case but may be getting it wrong? Tried Gusher it has a youtube option,it states on a youtube video it works but when i try it says live not enabled,it points me to a link to enable it via youtube,in your account profile or settings page,but this is stating live is enabled?But I create a live broadcast in youtube and once I publish it it states offline,I then srtp details method in Gusher and the same message pops up again enable live streaming got no clue how to ammend it or how to work around this,contacted google and nvidia google put me over to nvidia,nvidia fobbed me off stating the shield is using twitch so use twitch,we don't support youtube streaming??? They suck at this.Personally I'd tell them if I was president of google,I'd say look nvidia you use our android tv os but won't allow the live streaming in favor of twitch streaming either enable it or loose your rights to the os to use it on shield tv!I'd also say what no love for youtube streaming on the shield tv but you have a partner ship with an alternative live streaming provider instead of the live streaming provider of your os that's a bit of a poke in the eye.
UPDATE
Found an app that enables youtube live from within android tv os and that is this app BitStream https://play.google.com/store/apps/...roid&pcampaignid=APPU_1_Pz9_V_-nIciZgAa6l4Io%
1.88 gbp price 1080p max varied resolutions other than 1080p and no ads at that cost,it's awesome,1 flaw though the mic setting when enabled keeps the sound and microphone going all the time,you mute the mic though and it mutes the game stream sound as well.Just thought it might help those who can't enable live streaming option from the youtube site when using the shield android tv console
(I looked for this but search seems to be busted)
Anyone know the situation with getting live TV on the Shield? I bought one to replace the Android TV function of my POS Philips 4K TV, which is so full of bugs as to be unusable and no fix coming from Philips. So far everything is great - fast, remote works all the time, stable - but no TV. I'd like to get my channels working with Live Channels because of the superior UI and the ability to record in the future. Don't want to use kodi or any other third-party TV apps.
I set up a dvblogic server on my NAS and using their beta dvblogic Live app am able to see the guide and switch channels in Live Channels but it doesn't correctly identify language tracks and subtitles don't work at all, and dvblogic have announced that they are abandoning the app's development to concentrate on their own fugly, proprietary app.
I saw that someone has released a hacked kernel with support for USB tuners, though it's for making Kodi work; in theory from what I've read about live channels it ought to just sort of work with supported tuners. Has anyone tried this?
Aside from the hacked kernel are there any other options? I have both DVB-T and IPTV available to me, and while I'd prefer IPTV I'll take whatever I can get. I was sort of hoping that when I connected the Shield to my router it would just find the IPTV channels and put them in the guide. Silly me.
Why dont you just IPTV Pro, there is a free version on Google Play Store. Im using it and its works perfectly with no problems...
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app
I think the best solution with a NAS is :
- tvheadend server on the NAS with a tuner
- tvheadend client on the shield : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ie.macinnes.tvheadend
But if you have IPTV, it's the easiest solution
You can use Cumulus TV to add m3u8 files in Android Live Channels : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.felkertech.n.cumulustv
Hauppauge
hi
I am trying to get my usb Hauppauge DVB-T2 working on my NVIDIA shield. I have been looking how to do this for several days and cant find any answers that work for me.
I have installed HDHomerun so i can see the live channels app. I also have a VPN and have set it to the USA. I dont want to pay plex.
If anyone can give me a step by step on how to get this working would be great?
Do you want to watch live TV on your phone? It turns out that you have a wide range of options to choose from, with the majority of them being reasonably priced. We looked at a variety of live TV apps, going over listings and other people's recommendations before trying them out and selecting the ones we thought were good enough to recommend.
