Hi,
If you want to stream media on other devices (or stream on your device searching others as library) I really recommend BubbleUPnP app! Never failed me once! Well, I'm taking that Samsung AllShare is similar to Samsung Link, if you want to stream your screen to a TV for example, I recommend Chromecast.

Does anyone know how to get media streaming to the tab via DLNA? I know twonky works on most files, however, TVersity and PS3 Media Server do not. Does anyone have a supported file type and codec support paper? Has anyone got a way to make all file types work, even if they have to be transcoded?
Dona doesn't transcode. And there's Sammy's Dona client preinstalled - its called allshare.
For crappy transfixing on the fly try vocal stream and convert.though why you want to do this when you have allshare is a mystery.
I know DLNA itself does not transcode. I am looking to see if someone knows of a DLNA server that will transcode into the proper format for Allshare. Allshare has brutal file support, as It will not play any file I have without transcoding. Might also be a MIME type issue, just seeing how everyone is streaming to the Tab.
I have never had to transcode anything in order to dlna share with allshare. My bids are all in avi though as far as I recall. Music and images all work fine too. They are all mp3 and jpg respectively.

I don't think it's the codec support as such but rather how the DLNA server is presenting the video to Allshare, it's obviously VERY picky as I've had no luck at all getting it to play anything that plays fine when copied to the Tab itself.
Twonky is a pretty crappy application IMHO, I've always found it very unreliable. PS3 media server might work? TVersity is a bit bloated but is another option. The latter 2 will (I believe) stream and/or transcode as needed.

I use miniDLNA on o rooted, Linux based NAS box. Had no problems so far. If you are or can run Linux I'd recommend miniDLNA.
Have you tried serviio? I use this on Win7 with my Samsung TV.
you can use astro to fiddle with extension headers (but i find allshare works almost flawlessly with the new official jk5 firmware)

Official JK5, you mean via Kies? Is it out?
If so, is it different from the Samfirmware one? Kies says to me that my device "can not" be updated, not that it "does not" need updating.
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

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

DLNA used to work perfectly with my Vizio TV using my HTC Inspire. The built in DLNA is bad from what I've seen, I can't get the videos to play or even show errors, it does nothing (and I must have the files on the internal storage it seems, plus, they have to be in the video, music, etc., folder respectively). With BubbleUPNP, which worked perfectly with the Inspire, I'm getting video and audio coded errors with files that played fine when transmitted from the Inspire.
Man, I used to be able to plug in my Inspire with USB and watch anything on it on my TV, sadly the S4 has MTP which is super bad. And now DLNA doesn't work either.
Just making sure, you are using the "share with local devices" right? I used the default DNLA share app on the S4, and get perfect reads on my PS3. No problems at all streaming them. Perhaps the player on your Vizio can't read the video files properly due to older codecs? Have you tried it on any other device, say, a laptop/PC?
