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.
DLNA.
This function is new to me but not for the rest of the high tech world. I know
nobody yet have used this function on a DHD, but SGS users maybe know what to
expect. This thread mainly is gonna be about the functionality of the DLNA
function in the DHD.
- Suggestions on what TV/LCD/LED to get.
- Is the wireless streeming seemless.
- What options to change in the TV to get the function to work.
These and many more questions can be asked about DLNA.
This topic mainly is cuz i am going to buy that phone and any input is superb welcome, but this topic, yet has not been seen in the DHD General section.
Please, reply on what do you suggest and how do you se yourself using this function
on a daily bases.
Best regards

I think (hope) the wireless streaming is seamless if not htc should've scrapped the plans and gone for a hdmi
true

true love lol
If you have a PS3 connected to your home network, then you connect your SGS/DHD to your home network via WiFi and turn on the DLNA app.
You'll see your SGS/DHD appear in the Video and Music menus of the XMB (you may have to scan for media servers on the PS3). Then you can browse the media folders on your SGS/DHD using the XMB.
Select a file, and it'll start playing on your TV. Simple.
That's how it works on my old Omnia II. Can't imagine it'll be any different with current handsets.

yeah ur right. but i've been wondering, will the format of videos have to be supported by both the DHD and the PS3? Does the ps3 actually decode the video file, or is that done on the DHD and simply streamed to the ps3?
for example, if i have an .avi file that works on my Desire hd, but assume this file type doesnt work on the ps3 natively, will it still be able to stream it?
This is a question that I'm very interested in finding out the answer too actually.
As I understand it, the advertised feature is that I can stream content (pictures, videos. music) to a DLNA device to display on my TV.
In my case, I have a PS3 and an Xbox360 which I assume will recognise my Desire HD and playback the content I have on it, which is fine.
I use my Xbox360 to play back content from my computer (which I believe is DLNA as well), so I am wondering if I can use my Desire HD to play back stuff from other devices. If so, then I can watch all my movies and listen to all my music via DLNA on my phone...
I really badly hope that this will work - MAJOR selling point for me!

The format of the video has to be supported by the PS3.
That used to be a problem with early PS3 Firmwares, but DivX/Xvid are natively supported by the PS3 these days...

Well, again, the DLNA app on the Omnia II allowed this, so I see no reason why this wouldn't work on the newer handsets.
Incidentally, if you connect to your home network via WiFi and use a File Manager that allows you to browse the local network (EStrongs File Explorer, for instance) - then you should be able to just share your PC's media folder and watch avi and mp3 files by browsing to them and opening them on your device. No DLNA needed.

ah ok i see. but if i were to reverse things and try to stream a video which works on the ps3, but not on the DHD itself, would this work?

There's no conversion done at all by either the PS3 or the DHD, DLNA is literally just a transport method, so you need to be streaming a file that is compatible on the receiving device. There are good media players available on Android to cover most filetypes though.
Of course, if you're trying to stream 1080p mkv files to your DHD, then you might struggle...

Useful to know! Thanks for that.
or just get one of these: http://www.expansys.com/hisense-108...our-downloaded-films-on-your-tv-in-hd-186127/
hisense has dlna and is brilliant bit of kit. youd just need a gaming relay wifi station / repeater or similar.
a wifi usb dongle should work too

I have been using DLNA for a good few months now with both my Samsung GS & Acer Laptop which has DLNA onboard for streaming to my Samsung LED TV and find it worthwhile for both Music & Photo's. However, for Video you have to watch (pun not intended) what you are going to stream.
Any video file that has heavy encoding will make the buffer stream work overtime and often freeze or judder on the TV.
.MKV files are quite prone to this but DivX and MP4 files play quite well.
Even the phone's own camera if recorded at 720p will test your TV as it struggles to receive the data smoothly.
The first thing you will need to pick up the DLNA content from your phone is a media hub. This can either be a Laptop with DLNA, a PS3, or if you are lucky to have one of the recent LCD/LED TV's with DLNA built in you can stream the content direct to your TV.
In my setup I have a Samsung LED TV which is connected by Ethernet to my Router.
Whenever I want to stream data from the phone to the TV the first thing to do is on the phone run the DLNA App (on the SGS it is called AllShare).
P.S. There are other third-party DLNA titles available such as iMediashare Mobile and Twonky Mobile which will do the same job.
The next step is on the TV Remote use the 'Source' button and change it until you see on the TV your phone's name (mine again says Samsung Galaxy S).
Once you have selected the phone the TV's screen will now change to a Media Hub and give a menu system where you can then select Photo's, Music or Video.
Providing on your phone's DLNA App you have chosen to stream specific files these same files will then be available for displaying on your TV.
To control the content on your TV simply use the TV's Remote and Play/Pause/Stop/Back for previous/Fwd for next/etc.
At present we don't know anything on the App that will be on the DHD so it's going to be guesswork in exactly how data is selected for streaming.
Hope this helps.

One question, you seem to know about this stuff, is the DLNA menu in the TV different to every different DLNA application, or is the menu already in the TV itself?

Each DLNA receiver has it's own menu for browsing DLNA media that it has discovered. The menu is part of the software in the TV, PS3, XBox, HTC receiver, etc...
DLNA is a standard for the transmission and discovery of media, but once that connection has been made, you can stream/send all sorts - DivX, Mkv, WMV, Avi, MP3, Wav, Jpg, Bmp, etc, etc.
The receiving device will have it's own software, with it's own menu, and it's own supported filetypes and codecs.
If you have a DLNA TV, it may only be able to play DivX and MP3. Or maybe Mkv and Wav. It's up to the manufacturer and the software they've loaded...

The menu you see on the TV is what is built in on the TV.
So it does not matter what software you use on the phone it will always be the same on the TV.
As an example ~ Both my Laptop (which also transmit media data) & Phone show exactly the same menu on the TV.
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.

Hello all. I have a Go flex home network storage device with loads of movies in avi format. I'm trying to find a way to stream these movies from my NAS to my nexus 10 without having to convert the files. I would also like to do this when I'm on the go, so if I'm tethered from my phone to my tablet I can use that connection to stream. Does anyone know of an app or setup that can accomodate this?
I store most of my content on my PC and use EMiT to stream it to my N7 not got my N10 yet but will let you know when it arrives also mobile data in my area sucks so i cant comment there but over wifi its pretty damn flawless
Thanks for the input. Mobile data strong here in Melbourne Florida so....I'm going to check out emit. I've never heard of it. I'll let you know how it goes.
Bubbleunpnp?
Can't you use xbmc for that? I've never done it but I thought that was a big thing with xbmc
Edit: yes grab xbmc from here http://xbmc.org/download/ you should be able to pick up your nas
App: BS Player is able to see your Nas file structure and plays almost all video codecs.
All of these are viable options but I'm not too network savvy and they don't have a lot of support for help. EMit looked the easiest to set up, and I actually got it connected, but the playback is incredibly slow. I got xbmc on the tablet, but I can't seem to connect to the network drive. I can't figure out what port the nas is using. Simply an lost trying to configure bsplayer. I'm going with xbmc for the moment, gonna google around and see what I can find. I'll post what I find.
With Bsplayer just go to menu and click LAN mode... It should scan and find you nas... Forgot about this one
Got BS Player working on my home network. Gave up on xbmc, it seemed to only work on home network. I'm trying to get it off mobile data. Still playing with BS player....
Oooh I didn't realize you were trying to get it off mobile data... Can't help ya there bro lol good luck
That's what I get for speed reading the OP lol
Thanks....does anyone know much about samba?
All I know is ES explorer will pick up anything that is using the samba protocol...
Yeah, I noticed that. I know I tried to download it, and I don't seem to be able to find an already compiled copy. Just to source to compile myself, which I don't know how to do. I know I'm missing something. There has got to be a way to stream music and movies from an nas to this thing. What really sucks is that nas came with an app on the market (goflex access), but I was broke by 4.2.2 and is no longer supported as the device is no longer manufactured.
I'm going to bed. More work on this tomorrow.

Several apps come with their own SAMBA/CIFS drivers for accessing that type of network share.
1) The fore mentioned ES File Explorer
2) XBMC (I have been using the ARM7 HW accelerated experimental version)
3) Mizuu - Movies & TV shows
4) MovieBrowser UPnP/DLNA
If you require native Samba/CIFS support for Android 4.2.2 things are a lot trickier due to multi-user support. You require a Custom ROM. Here is an explanation and a custom ROM with that capability built in.
