Hi guys, just bought a Samsung smart TV and I wanted to know if and how could I stream movies from my phone to the TV Wireless.
I'm currently running Cm9. If there is an app required can someone upload it please.. thanks

You need all share to stream stuff on your smart tv. I don't know if all share works with CM9 though. All share is included in the stock Rom, so maybe if you ask somebody he/she will extract it for you do you can try it on CM9
it works on stock
Dont know about CM9, but with the stock rom, you just need to make sure your TV and Phone are connected to the same wifi and then you play your file on your phone. A symbol at the top of the stock player shows a 'choose your player' dialogues and then you choose your TV. Its starts playing either instantly or with a prompt on your tv, depending on your tv setup. I have mine set to auto accept. Works with photos and videos. I have tried with 1080p movies and it works without a problem.
Tv is LG LM670T. 3d smart. its gorgeous
I think most recently manufactured tv hs dlna.
Just search your tv model on Internet then you should be able to find out.
If so, then download bubbleupnp app from play store. You can either set up another server on your computer, which I do, using plex server, which you can download for free for your pc. Or you can use your phone as the server as well.
You can control all the streaming from your pc to your tv or phone to tv right from the bubbleupnp app. Very cool. If you install the extra bubbleupnp server on your computer, you can even stream remotely. Very easy to set up and very cool. Real cool.

If I understand well, you have two options: (1) stock Samsung rom and AllShare Cast (it needs Samsung framework, hence CM will not work) or (2) use DLNA (check if your TV supports it, but I guess so) and one of the apps mentioned above (which will also work in CM as it should support DLNA).

My primary phone is a Galaxy S and I'm in love with the Allshare app and haven't been able to find any comparable apps in the market.
I've (unsuccessfully) tried to install Allshare on the NC, so that's not an option as far as I know.
I'd likely something a bit like VLC Stream and Convert but for DLNA or UPnP.

It's an app similar to Apple's Airplay which lets you stream videos/music/pictures from your PC to your Android device.
The new gmote is awesome for that. I've being using it for the past couple of days. And the setup is simple
Nook Color via Xda App
subsonic does similar; it's supposed to also stream video but I had problems with the resulting flash. Audio is fine.
Allshare is a DLNA client and I think also a DLNA server. I haven't been able to find a good solution to replace this on my Nook Color. It works great on my Samsung Epic 4g streaming video.

Thanks, I appreciate the recommendations
DLNA
I have been using 2Player on my Nook Color. It is in the Market. "Karmaware" so you pay the developer for a key if you like the software and want to send something their way. No nags. No ads.
yeah i love allshare on my galaxy, nothing ive found is quite as good, i personally use it as a server, it throws my pictures, music, movies to my samsung blu ray player on the fly, it also works on samsung wifi tv's (as well as sony tv's) (ive been playing at my second job @ best buy)
funny thing: samsung tv's ask if you want to display the content, and sony's dont, security issue imo for people who have open networks as i can throw anything up on your tv that i want
Twonky Mobile is a DLNA streaming app for android. You can use it as a source or a client.
Twonky Server would also work if you only want to host content on the nook.

I use Twonky all the time for sharing stuff to my PS3. Didn't realize it could act as a client as well. I'll have to try that out. Thanks!

Yea, I have no idea. Only dug it up by accident going to Twonky's site trying to stream stuff from my mac to PS3.
I haven't tried it on a nook but AndroMote works great to push the content from a server (twonky) to a DLNA device. It's a lot like AllShare just doesn't serve up it's own content.
Check out iMediaShare, too.
i just got the tab through bestbuy because it came with my new 3d smart tv. Bestbuy says "Your Samsung smart TV and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 can connect with each other for the ultimate home theater experience. Easily control your TV with your Galaxy Tab and view your Tab content (photos, videos, content from the "Cloud," etc.) on your larger HDTV screen.". Does anyone know how? lol. maybe a stupid question but i cant find it anywhere
I have a Samsung tv, serie 6 so they should be able to cooperate. I made a connection through USB cable but when I wanted to see pictures onthe tv from my tab, the tv wouldn't accept the tab. So I'm also curious ;-)
I imagine that this should be done with Samsung's 'Allshare' software, however it's not currently supplied with the Touchwiz software on the Tab.
If Allshare isn't available in the app store, then look for iMediashare or any other DNLA capable app. I'm assuming the TV is a "Smart" one, and connects somehow to your home network. Now look for a Media Link app/option on the TV. Run the DNLA app on your tablet, then run the Media Link app on the TV. The TV should see the tablet and any other media share devices that are on yor network. Pick either local or web content from your tablet, and the tablet should be able to send it to the TV.
I do this with my LG Smart TV. I'm working on the assumtion that all the Smart TVs are somewhat similar, despite being from different companies.
Good luck. It's a joy when it works.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

No luck finding Allshare or iMediashare in the US market.
Samsung has a remote app that works okay, just not sure of the need for it.
Any other suggestions?
Twonky Mobile demo version works for me, although I can't say I've tried watching movies with it just yet.
Edit: Videos do play.

Hi
Is there any way to use allshare in galaxy s3?
can all share play share a folder on pc with phone?
All Share Play is for syncing with other devices and PC (if you install client on PC).
All Share Cast is for live phone streaming on a compatible device i.e. a tv with dongle, hdmi cable
both can be used with the s3...
till now I don't know what's All Share app in my S3

Yes it works. It's a little different than the old all share app. You gotta play with it you'll figure it out. It plays better than the last app
All share play streams too It does everything!!!
You don't have to install anything on your pc. Find the video or pics you want to stream check the box next to it and it will show up on the stream to device.

My PS3 and my smart tv pickup my windows computer over wifi enabling me to show pictures music and videos on it. Im assuming this is a windows feature that allows it to show up like that. Is there any type of app that can fake the tv I to thinking my phone is a wi dows media?
I may be using wrong technology terms here but hope what I am saying makes sense
Hey,
There are many apps for that in Google Play, the technology is called "DLNA", just look for that in Google Play.
I use imediashare for displaying videos and pictures on my Sony TV. But with this app you normally send your media to the TV, and not the other way round.
Just try it!

I'm away from my TV until after the new year (im with my parents for the holidays. I was trying to get more information regarding if I need to get extra stuff on my TV or what else is needed.
Worked awesome!! I downloaded Skifta

As TEGRA 3 supports Miracast I was wondering how to use it with the prime. Any ideas?
And also, is there any other good way to stream the prime's display directly to a TV, wireless.

This forum is getting dead. good questions going on unanswered..
the prime comes with anynet by asus that does exactly this.
Sv: Miracast or wireless display.
Well, how to you play to something then? Because I can only seem to play to my Prime. There is a play to button, but the only alternative is the tf201. And also that wouldn't share the screen to a tv, or would it?

both devices need to be on the same network for starters. My samsung plasma needed to agree to the connection first and that was somewhere in the tv settings then it showed up as an option in the play to menu. My new Vizio does not come with that functionality though. I does however still play the files from my prime using its own menu as I have enabled the sharing of media files wehn the mynet software came up asking for permission. So there are a couple of ways the connection can be made to play your media on your tv from your prime.

If the device is DLNA compatible then use Skifta. I find it far easier.

There is a lot of difference between dlna and miracast.
Dlna = Prime can share files that other devices can see and play...
Miracast = mirroring what u see on prime to any tv.
With miracast, u can Play games like temple run by watching your tv, but still swiping on ur tablet.
To op's qn...Miracst will be supported with 4.2 android version.. i think statement has been made by nvidia as well confirming this for tegra 3. Google.
All u need is a netgear ptv3000 device hooked onto yout tv that will wirelessly connect with your tablet.

Ah, ok that's a bit sad then.
About the dongle. if I have one, my tv doesn't need dlna. Right? Also do you know if the prime/tablet will send data to the dongle constantly or are you able to decide when to do that?

Prime does not support miracast yet , so dont know.
Samsungs allshare cast works damn nice for screen mirroring. You can pair the dongle with the tablet and start stop mirroring anytime you like. I have a note 10.1 tablet and galaxy s3, and I mirror them both on tv to play games watch movies.
Dlna is different than miracast... once I can mirror, I dont think u will need dlna that much.
I am banking that samsung allshare cast, miracast and intel widi will all merge into one protocol, and it would be lovely then.

Yeah, mirroring will eliminate my need of dlna. The Samsung all share is a Great solution though it only works with samsung products as you need the all share framework. And I dont think you can get around that.

My friend just discovered this feature. He was able to push photos he was viewing on his s3 phone to his Panasonic plasma TV wirelessly. So the underlying protocol that Samsung uses must work with other manufactures.

Yes it does work with other manufacturers but right now you'll need a samsung device which is running a Sammy rom to use the allshare app. Though dlna is a really nice feature
