Hi
Does new Galaxy 10.1 WiFi only 16GB come with DLNA connectivity (like Tab 7.0) or not? Not able to understand it even on samsung.com site...
the 10.1 comes with stock android 3.1 so.. no, it does not have dlna support out of the box.
Here you go: http://www.samsung.de/de/Privatkund...T-P7500UWDDBT/detail.aspx?atab=specifications
DivX support Yes (This feature is available in Q3 with a software update.)
And I think I saw it somewhere associated with DLNA.

as far as I remember DLNA was going to come later (probably when they push TouchWiz)

DLNA comes with the Allshare app, which is part of TW afaik.
I plan to use it to both send and recieve media from my XBMC box. Saves me from buying a HDMI adapter
I'm using imediashare to stream videos from tab/youtube to TV through xbox/NMT player. Not sure how it connects (uPnP or DLNA) but it works
I downloaded the imediashare app and it works like a dream with my PS3. 1080p? No lag, no problems whatsoever.
maybe try to install the Allshare apk from the SGS 2 ?
Anybody else try out imediashare?
It tells me it is not compatible with the GT 10.1.
I've tried netFront connect
I've tried the following so far:
ALLSHARE - does not even start!
AMEDIA CONTROL - can reach the dlna server and browse the directories but video don't start.
SKIFTA - reach the server,browse directories but video don't play. Just images if paused.
NETFRONT - reach the server but more often than not it freezes.
It seems DLNA compatibility is not possible so far.
BubbleUPnP works everytime - content from Host (Ubuntu) or USB stick in the back of the router.
try plex for android and imediashare

I want to stream movies and other stuff wirelessly from my pc to N7. I am thinking to get Plex for Android. Are there any other (preferably free ) options. like setting up a UPnP server or an ftp server on pc and then use some app that supports it.
If rooted - yes: install a kernel that includes cifs support and then use play app cifsmanager to mount network shares made available on your PC. Your shares will appear as part of the local filesystem tree (under /mnt/cifs by default) so any app can then access network content.

I use Plex and AudioGalaxy
I use gmote and mxplayer, works flawlessly. I can stream high bitrate 1080p .mkvs with DTS audio smoothly.

Okay, that's pretty damn cool. Just because of that, I might pickup up a N7 today.

You can try using Zumocast
Try es file explorer. Swipe the screen left when on your files and you can add you computer to your network.

In MX Player Settings, check the S/W (network) option. It kind of worked for me. Please let me know if that works for you as well..Want to make sure that it was the thing that removed my lag..

Nothing special that I can recall...how is your network bandwidth? Do you have a good router? Could be a contributing factor to laggyness.

Use BS Player. Tried and tested..Videos work just great..!! Btw, I roughly get around 25 Mbps..And I dont think the router would make any difference as long as you have a decent network bandwidth...Hope this helps..

if you want a nice "front end" to browse your library then BubbleUpnp is the go. Hook that up with the free Plex server on the pc and away you go.
Otherwise, if you just want to browse the network with a file manager, thats not hard either.

I use "Emit" to stream downloaded movies from my Windows box. I was so pleased with the free version, I bought the adfree version for less tham £3.
I have to say that this is the only video streaming app I tried so the other recommendations here may be better but I was blown away when, while being driven up the M11 at 80mph, I tethered to my ageing HTC Desire and streamed a movie from my Win7 machine back at home. (Admittedly, I only ran the movie briefly as a test, so it may glitch after some time). Also a tethered demo to some mates in the pub last night worked flawlessly.
It goes without saying that wifi streaming also works perfectly.
Another slightly different streaming use: Additional to the above Windows machine, I have an Ubuntu machine running MythTV+Apache+Mythweb which I use as my PVR (Personal Video Recorder). I found that when using the Maxthon browser on the Nexus 7, I was able to browse to the Mythweb page generated by my MythTV box and click on the "Direct Download" option of one of my recorded programs. It then offered me the option of "Download" or "Play". (It's worth noting here that neither Chrome or Firefox offered this choice - they just began downloading the recording) If I select "Play" and then select the MX Player, the recorded program begins streaming perfectly.
Hope this helps
If you're rooted you can stream for free. I'm using ES File Explorer and Dice Player. Works great for me with little setup. Just load up the samba server inside ES with you're pc's ip address and start streaming. I tried a few others but this one works the best for me. No lag when watching movies or listening to music. :good:
I tried quite a few players including MX Player before settling on BS Player. For me it seems to be the best when streaming MKVs over WiFi.
I use UPnPlay here. Basically just plugging my devices into the allshare setup I'm using between my PC and TV.

how exactly are you playing these files? I checked that box off but my videos dont even open with MXplayer. im using gmote, browse for the file and click it and it opens up in gmotes player. you do it differently?
What apps or methods work best to stream HD content to the nexus?
Also is there a way to download/copy files from pc to tablet over wifi. So I want to be able to view the videos on my pc from my tablet then press on it and it will transfer to my tablet.
I'm not having any problems with plex.

Copy Files - ES File Explorer. (it has LAN Connectivity)
Play Movies - I use DLNA program, "Bubble UpnP" it rocks.
I'm using a combo of ES File Explorer and VLC to stream the movies over Wifi. Works fine without having to transcode like Plex.

I have been using the heck out of BS Player, It has "LAN Mode" where you can set your library to a Network Share (Mine is my NAS Server) and then you can browse and play from that folder to the device. I been playing 10 Gig MKV straight up on my SGS3 all day. Hope that it works as well with the N10, still waiting for mine to get here.. well both of the 32G ones that they coincidentally over charged me..
Try upnPlay, works for me.

I've been using Diceplayer on my TF Infinity but it doesn't support HW decoding on the Nexus 10 yet, neither does BS Player or anything except VLC.

This player constantly keeps crashing here when trying to build thumbnails from my files. And it does not save my LAN servers so I have to enter them again. Any way to fix this, or at least prevent thumbnail creation?

Yes, you can disable thumbnails and default it to list view. Also, if you hit back button it should cancel the thumbnail building. When you go into options you should be able to save the LAN connection as your default library. I have done all these things. I have to point out, this is all on my SGS3... haven't tried it on a nexus 10 or with 4.2 because Google didn't send me my nexus yet...

+1, works well. Get a nightly build of VLC and enable hardware decoding in options
I am looking for an app that will allow (for example) my Galaxy Note 10.1 to see files (specifically video files) from my Nexus 7.
I would then like the Galaxy Note 10.1 be able to play those video files from my Nexus 7.
I know how to do it from said device from a PC but another android device I dunno yet.
Anyone have any apps to recommend?
I use skifta, mainly for playing files from the server on my network at home, but also for streaming files from the tablet to a DNLA player (ps3)
I have tried it from my N7 to a mates N7 so I do know it should work android to android.

Has anyone has any luck streaming video from your local media servers (PC) using the plex app or any other media streaming app. The apps load up fine but once you select your media to view its just a black screen until you close them. Worked fine on my GS3 and my IPAD. I tend to think its something to do with the app developers not prepared for the 800 processor?

Same issue here. Sorry.
I was able to get media to play by syncing it to be offline, both with this and with Subsonic. But streaming just doesn't work.
Plex works fine for me, remotely or locally up to and including at 1080p. I have the newest PlexPass versions on server and phone.

Audio works on both, however.

Same thing. Black screen, no video or audio (I don't think). Any solutions?
Plex is aware of the issue.
Download MX player, go to settings in plex, choose "device media profile" then select "media profile" and choose "external player". Next time you play, choose MX. It should work. Plex offers this as a temporary issue until they solve the problem.

I've had nothing but problems streaming video with my LG G2 using DSub/Subsonic (utilizing MX Player Pro). Audio works pretty well but the video does not work AT ALL. I've reported this to the MX Player Google group (useless, developer does not respond) as well as the Subsonic forums. So far, no help or advanced troubleshooting has been provided. I guess I'll just hope that someday my brand new LG G2 works as flawlessly streaming video as my iPhone 4 did. :crying:
