I don't know if anyone can help me but I figured I could ask. I have a LG BluRay DVD Home theater System that has DLNA ability that is hooked to my HD tv that is not. My home theater reciever is not currently hooked up to my wireless network but I see that the receiver does have a ethernet port in the back. I am mainly trying to connect my galaxy s3 to my tv to stream video etc. Does anyone know if I direct connect the DLNA capable home theater receiver to my wireless router, which will connect it to my wireless network, will I then be able to send info from my galaxy s3 to my theater system which will show up on my TV? Sorry for the noob question but i got to start somewhere.....Any information will help based on my situation of not having a DLNA capable TV lol

If the blu ray player is dlna capable you should be able to find your galaxy s3.
On your SGS3 go to settings/more settings/nearby devices/enable file sharing.
I have connected my galaxy s3 with both Sony bdpbx59 and Samsung bdd5700 blu ray players but with choppy video playback.
I have researched online and many say this may be due to weak Wi-Fi on the blu Ray players but I'm not sure as i tested both with and without Ethernet connection and had the same issue.
I am going to swing by best buy tomorrow to test a few more out.
Let me know how yours works out.

I have a 56" Samsung DLP HDTV HL56A650.
I know the TV has wiselink but I am pretty sure not wiselink+.
I have hooked my phone into the wiselink usb slot and successfully viewed pictures and music that is stored on the phone. As far as I can tell right now, it will not play .mkv videos, but does support x264.
I also can't seem to find out how to hook my TV up to the Ethernet which leads me to believe I don't have the + with my wiselink.
Anyone else have a Samsung TV that they can do this on?
Maybe wrong forum? This is not a TV help forum.
Yeah, wiselink has nothing to do with the phone... it just uses the SD card as mass storage.
Wireless DLNA is what the SGS is all about..
i believe Kies has video convertor for the .mkv files
I have a Samsung LN46A950. I have it plugged into my network via ethernet, and when I start the DLNA server on my Vibrant it shows up as a server on my TV. I'm able to view pictures and the Avatar trailer this way, but I can't play video. Apparently my TV doesn't support the correct CODEC to play Vibrant's video files.
It's a non-issue for me since I have an HTPC connected to my home theater that can obviously handle any format. I still kinda wish my TV could play the files, though, just because it'd be cool.
Thanks dex. Thats the kinda resoonse I was lookin for. I dont particularly need help with my tv, was just interested in seeing if anyone else has had success with playing videos from their vibrant to their samsung tv.

I want to connect my Atrix to the Home Theater receiver, so that I can play streaming audio off of it (currently using MOG). Is it possible to do that?
Plugging in the Atrix to the HDMI cable only resulted in 2 options - do nothing or launch the entertainment center, neither of which serve my purpose.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks!
No DLNA on your home theater system?
I don't have a network receiver, but I do have a PS3, which supports DLNA. However, the music I want to play requires the MOG app, which is streaming off the Internet. Not sure if I can export it as a DLNA stream.
you can hack the atrix do do webtop over HDMI. Then you just supersize the phone view, and bam! you have HDMI out.
Hi
I have an HTC Evo 4g that allows me to wireless play content on my dlna tv with HTC Media Share.
Tried everything with clear.fi and media server on the acer but cannot get it working.
On latest stock 3.2.1 rooted.
Anyone managed ?
I have had no problems using Clear Fi
tv Wired or wireless or behind a switch
It works as well on my tv /xbox that is wireless.. We have a very large home network in the house.. well beyond the 4 ports of the Netgear router.So the tvs in bedrooms that are wired network. Are behind a switch..(network hub) sometimes i have to reset the router to get one of them to see the tablet or the windows media center from my server pc.. its a Sanyo 47 inch lcd tv. my samsung Tv howerver on the same switch Works awesome with no setup or frustrations..
We use this feature very often.. I think its a problem with the sanyo. but cant say for sure because there is no place i have found to see the network settings .. they are all automatic and cant see or adjust ..
cheap built lame but costly tv...
Hi first post: hope I can get an answer well I was playing ps3 the other day and one of my friend says we should stream our matches for the facebook group we have since this tablet have an HDMI port I was wondering if is possible to connect the ps3 to the tablet and stream to Justin TV or record the game play some way? Thx for all the help
No, the hdmi on your tablet is only to output signals too your tv and not the other way around.
so there's no way to stream from my tablet?
Yes and no, Yes you can stream stuff from your tablet, no you can't stream what you want, though I've read someone used their A500 as a wireless keyboard for their ps3......
I have recently purchased a LG Smart TV. It has all the bells and whistles like wifi , miracast etc etc. Is it possible for me to mirror my phone to the TV while playing games, and also cast my Cinemabox app to the TV (while watching shows). In simple words can i have same functionality of a Chromecast. The TV and phone will be connected to the same wifi router.
If it matters anyhow, the TV model is LG 55UF851T.

Noone has a solution??
Mirroring via the Miracast protocol doesn't require a wifi router, it's a direct wifi point to point connection.
The Chromecast can also work through a direct point to point wifi connection (guest mode).

My query is a bit different. Considering the TV has wi-di and miracast, isnt it possible to mirror the S7 screen to the TV. I need the same for casting my games etc. Is it possible to mirror a S7 screen to a LG Smart TV.
The answer is easy...
If any TV set supports Miracast the answer is yes.
However performance for games is a bit poor...

yes. it is possible. in fact, the function to mirror a smartphone screen to TV supporting Miracast has been there since at least Samsung S4.they have changed the name of the functionality a few times but the end result remained the same and different phone manufacturers have different name. Samsung called it Smart Connect now.

I have tested it, if you need to know and it works fine.
I have the same problem. With my Axon7 I can cast YT directly or the whole screen trough Settings/Screen/Cast but with the S7 Edge I can't find such option. Any step by step guide?
