I tried Allshare, It played one MP4 video clip which was slow and juttery as hell then gave up and just sits buffering no matter what video clip I try to play. Photos work but again slow, MP3's some work some don't
I tried a couple of other couple of DLNA apps but same issues, videos are the main issue, my Xbox 360 is connected direct to router.
Any ideas?

Maybe a bad router, maybe you need to configure your router first? How is your internet connection?
MP3 is a term used by a lot of people for all music, but not all music files are mp3's. So maybe the songs that won't play aren't mp3's and your xbox can't play them.
But i don't think the phone is the one to blame.

so, there used to be a program called ORB that allowed you to stream audio/video/pictures from your home network devices to your evo4g; they stopped updating it awhile ago, and, it no longer works with 2.3.3
has anyone found a system/program, that allows you to stream stuff from your home DLNA compliant sources, to the EVO3d?
preferably, via 3g/4g, so it would work when you are away from your home wifi..
thanks so much!
Yes, it comes preinstalled on the EVO.. its called media server... When you click on gallery, you can touch the top bar and pick media server and it will search for available content...
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
unfortunately, it doesnt show any of the videos on my 2 DLNA compliant NAS boxes...
anyone else find anything?
thanks!
Try using iMediaShare, its a free app that works well on my PS3.
imedia share shows the nas boxes on my network, but, wont play any .mkv files, which is how I encode my bluray movies...
I guess I need a media player that plays .mkv files over the network...
I used iMediaShare with MoboPlayer and it plays mkv from DLNA sources. It stutter a little.

how do you get imedia share to use moboplayer?
I can't seem to get imedia share to see that I want to use moboplayer to play vids..
thanks!
I didn't have to do anything, it switched to MoboPlayer when I pick a mkv movie.
is the .mkv file on your phone, or on your home network server?
I need to see stuff on my home network server..
thanks
mkv is on my WDTV Live player. I'm streaming DLNA from the WDTV Live.
I was trying to stream with SMB to the Evo 3D but couldn't get it to work without it downloading the whole movie before it plays. My Archos 101 have no issue streaming 720p mkv through SMB.

I wish I could get Imedia to see my NAS drives, where I keep all my media stuff..
I used to use a program called Orb to stream stuff from my NAS boxes to my phone, and it worked like a charm, via 3/4g and wifi..unfortunately, they never updated the program to work with 2.3...
Oh well, I guess I will keep looking. thanks for your suggestions!
I'm still looking for a solution to stream 3g/4g. Currently I can only stream on the LAN. Let me know if you find something.
its not DLNA, but you might try subsonic
Hi everyone.
I bought an MHL cable to hook my Galxy S II up to my HDTV thinking I could watch HD videos on my big screen.
This works fine for a video file I've already downloaded to my phone, but I subscribe to an online live sports streaming website that shows events in up to 720p resolutions. All the streams are rtmpt Flash based embedded players, unfortunately when I tried this I could only view the videos at the S2's native resolution, which scaled up to 40 inches looked terrible!
Also, I've tried loads of browsers from the market, but regardless of if I use 3G, H+ or high speed home wifi they all stutter/lag every 10 seconds or so, which tells me it's the phone, not the connection. If I tether my phone to my PC, I can watch the streams fine which again tells me that it's the phone and not a connection speed issue.
I'd like to know if there's an app that will detect when you play an embedded video stream and give you the option of viewing it in another player that can handle higher resolutions than the browsers can?
I've seen apps like JetVD which do this for YouTube videos with 720p resolutions but can't find anything that will work with other streaming video websites. A little help please? MHL cable is pretty useless to me otherwise!
Thanks in advance!
Hey everyone I've jumped over from the iPhone/Apple ecosystem so don't shoot me, but I'm really disappointed with this HTC Media Link HD. I've still got Airplay running side by side and these problems don't exist. I don't mean that to argue about Airplay and whatnot because neither companies are paying me royalties to argue for or against them. I just mention it because I can Airplay stream and mirror without a hitch so I don't want to fend off "your wireless network stinks" responses. I've got an Asus N66 and can sustain mbps back to my NAS/ESXi well beyond what this needs, and I can also stream non-hand braked blu rays without problem. I understand there is differences between streaming and mirroring, but also as I understand this should be a wireless direct connection.
Anyone having these problems:
1. Google Play (perhaps the latest version only) does not look to work with my Media Link. It will play one song and then stop as it tries to load the next song. Manually restarting the next song doesn't resolve I have to close and re-open. Spotify works fine.
2. Any flash I've tried to stream results in audio and video out of sync. I can mirror flash movies across airplay without this issue.
3. Audio cuts in and out in Spotify all the time. I can rarely get 2 songs to play in a row without chop. The cut outs are brief, but still very annoying.
Thanks for any help! Love the phone quite a bit, this is probably my first disappointment.
I have the same problem trying to stream google play music to media link. It only plays one song and it won't play any other songs until I disconnect from media link again - it works fine if its not connected to media link - but with media link only one song?

This issue exists with Google Play Movies as well. I tried contacting support about it a couple months ago with nothing ever coming from it. I was trying to play All Access via Play Music today and ran into the same problem. The songs will not even play when the Media Link HD is connected. I suspect this is some DRM related code put into all the Google media apps. I submitted a support email to Google as will attempt to get as far through to the real tech support people as I can to see if this incompatibility can be resolved. I urge you all to do the same. Stupid DRM...it ruins everything.
It won't play tv.com either, it will play cnn live broadcast, and vevo.
Chromecast works fine in apps that stream from the NET (youtube, etc). Both from S3 and computer.
Streaming from my PC videos NOT made with the S3, are fine.
Streaming videos SHOT with the S3 from the PC or from the S3 are constantly stuttering. Some of them don't do it, but most do. They are shot in 720p (not 1080p).
Switched from AOSP back to Stock, same problem. Anyone else?
And streaming the same buggy videos through PLEX server (from PC to Chromecast, controlled via S3 plex app) works great. So I assume something is wrong with the videos themselves?
After failing to find a way to watch movies, Youtube, Netflix, etc, on a TV without draining my batteries, I finally picked up a Chromecast dongle. I installed the Chromecast app along with the Avia Media Player app but none of my XVID movies would play. After a few attempts at ripping a DVD into different formats, MKV video with AAC audio finally worked perfectly. I'm now in the process of re-ripping all my DVD's into MKV videos. Youtube and Netflix are working great. Chromecast's screen mirroring is still a WIP but can be enabled with the MirrorEnabler app from these forums. The screen freezes for a moment every 40 or 50 seconds, so iscreen mirroring isn't suitable for gaming yet. After installing the Cast Store app, I was surprised to see so many apps designed for Chromecast.

I am running the mirror enabler on my 8.4 as well but have not notice any freezing problem. It isn't suitable for gaming but flawless for watching video.

I don't know what was causing the problem, but the freezing has stopped. Even when it was happening it was very brief (less than a second).
Do you have a black boarder around your picture when mirroring? I don't get it when casting a video but it's there when mirroring.

Yes, that because the resolution of my tablet is not 16:9.
If I use my phone (z2), which is 1080p, there is no black border.
