Hey guys. Looking for an app to use to stream videos from my Nexus to the TV/Xbox, sort of like Wifi Direct but, as wifi direct doesn't support the N7, I need something else. Preferably a wireless option, as I know I could do Usb/HDMI.

there are lots of dnla/upnp apps that you can use to stream via wifi to your tv/xbox.
bubble upnp
skifta
twonky
all of these should do the job just fine.

I all of my music stored in my windows home server NAS. I want to be able to play music stored on it with my xoom over WiFi. What the best way of accomplishing this?
The NAS already has twonky running on it. Is there a player for xoom that works?
I use subsonic, works good
I use Audiogalaxy, love it and it's free in the market.

Is there a local option? Both of these seem to be centered around streaming over the web. I just need access over my local network.

Both share with the outside world. I think Audiogalaxy may be a little more secure since you are just running a client on the system and their website does all the work. (I think). Subsonic is great! I use it on my Android devices and via a web browser at home and work to listen to music. Subsonic also now supports streaming video.

There are threads in xoom general on how to connect to a NAS.

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.

I'm extremely interested in this as well. HELP!!
Did you ever find out if or how that is possible? I can stream media to my ps3 just fine, but live sreen streaming is eluding me. If anyone knows of an app which would do that please share

Is DLNA working on the Nexus 7?
Do you need additional software to use it?
i haven't seen DLNA mentioned anywhere in official specs or reviews so i don't think it has it.
as far as adding it, no idea, don't think it can be done.
All you should need is an DLNA enabled media player from the app store and access to/from network. DLNA is software certification not hardware. Or do you want to stream from the Nexus rather than to it. Try Bubble UPnP or there's Mediahouse and others.

What would be an example of a good DLNA enabled media player to access media files from the network?
The 2 files Bubble UPnP and Mediahouse would then only send my media from this tablet to a DLNA enabled device?
(I have a WD Live Plus DLNA device).
I assume until someone tests these software on the Nexus 7, there might me initial computability issues?
I would wait until you have your device in hand then try the free versions of them to see which is best suited to your needs. As I haven't received mine yet I can't say what works with it.
Install Skifta, that'll do DNLA Server or Client. Combined with MX Player I've never had a problem with using it on any of my Android devices.

Trying to find the same answer. I was pairing a bluetooth headset with my tablet and noticed my TV showed up...but when I click on it, it says something about an incorrect PIN even though there was no prompting for a PIN. Would love to stream to the TV...not sure why I see it under bluetooth either because I'm pretty sure bluetooth can't handle that much data.
DLNA works fine, I use the Plex DLNA server on my HTPC and BubbleUPNP client on my N7. Great combo.
Hi all,
I was wondering if you could help me find if there was a way to stream content that's from the web (e.g. Chrome/Browser) over to a device that supports something like Airplay and similar services. I know TouchWiz on my S3 can do this already, but is there a way to get this on my N7?
I've searched on Google but find nothing.
Thanks!

I'm not sure about how Airplay works. But You can try AirDroid, Wifi File Transfer.
Let me know if it works for you.

I think these are for file transfer. I've actually used AirDrop to transfer files between my Mac and S3. What I'd like to be able to do is send audio/video I'm streaming from the web on my Nexus 7 onto say my Xbox 360 or a set of network enabled speakers.
My S3 can do this as TouchWiz has AllShare built in to it. So really I'm looking for an alternative to AllShare that will work with my N7.
Thanks

Why don't you just use something like Chrome to mobile or Dolphin connect and send share the link to your N7 and enjoy the music.
Check iMediaShare app. I guess this is what you are looking for

When I have movies or pictures, I can use my media player that finds my laptop on the network and I can simply open or stream those files via wifi.
My question is how can I share files on my S7? How can I make my S7 discoverable on the network like my laptop does? Anyone know?
Thanks!
