Streaming media to XBMC on raspberry pi!? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I was wondering if anyone know of any apps or methods on how to stream my media from my phone to XBMC on my raspberry pi?
I was able to do it through HTC Sense gallery app and music app on my Desire HD. It was a pretty handy feature and would like to know how to do through AOSP.
Hopefully someone can shed some light on this topic lol.
Thanks guys

Hi, I'm currently looking forward to to the same.
Best solution I've found yet, is to use Bubbleunpnp.
It doesn't enable you to do mirroring, but you can stream media (photos,videos,etc...).
It works flawlessly for me (N4+Raspbmc), you just have to enable Unpnp in xbmc's settings.
Cheers

Was going to suggest the same. Bubbleupnp is a great piece of kit for streaming phone media to xbmc

Not sure if this supports the Nexus 4, but it looks like the app DroidCam (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dev47apps.droidcam&hl=en) is what you are looking for.
Not quite what I was after. I would like to use my front camera chatting on my phone browser. Same as you use your laptop camera on video chat.

It's not possible with phone browser. At least not the popular ones. They don't support that protocol. Even with you desktop browser you have to install an add-on most of the time.
I recommend using a video chat apps. There are plenty of options out there.

This app claims to do it. I have not tried it though.

Ir blaster

Just wondering what other devices you guys are using your note 3 to control. I didn't even know you could use it for things other than a TV. In the xda YouTube video review of the note 3, the reviewer mentioned he was using his note to control the camera he was using to record.

It can control anything that uses IR to receive signals and messages.
How can you use it for other things? Only options in the watch on app are Tvs and top boxes

What would you like it to do?
Of course, I use it with:
My TV's
My Dish Sets
My Projector
My Nikon
And right now I'm in the works of making my garage door work as well.
PD. I recommend using the smart remote app instead of the watchon one.

This small addon is one of the major reasons I will upgrade from note 2. Anyone tried controlling AC ?

Best one I've found so far. Simple and quick.
The Watch On app is the one that came with your phone with a fuscia icon and a tv BUT if your signature is right your phone doesn't have an IR Blaster nor this Samsung app

[Q]Chromecast+p500

Hello, I just got a chromecast and I love it, I just have one problem, I want to use my p500 as a remote and everything seems to be working fine, except for one thing, Netflix, I just don't have the cast button, and the UI is completely different from my tablet, so, is there any way to have Netflix working with the chromecast and the p500?
Thanks

Are you guys getting HD? I checked the stream speed and probably I have 1500-1750kbps, which is not HD. I even tried the Netflix mods from XDA to get 3850kbps - while they run (2.4.1 based though) there is no difference in my case.
BTW...if you're thinking of upgrading to 3.0.2, don't! It breaks the "next episode" advancement.
Anyone know of an HD enabled version/mod? I like this new layout and how I can navigate without the mouse pointer for the most part but I hate how videos always start playing so pixelated.
Is there a hd version available?

Thanks for posting a link to the app. I've been wondering if I would be able to use Netflix on it, since it was initially announced as supported.
