How do I stream content from my GS3 to my LG Tv using DLNA?
Do I need an App?
Or is there a setting I need to use?
All help is greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance.

I also have an LG TV and i didn't have to do anything, while playing a video or viewing a picture an icon shows up in the top left i believe when an external source is available to use.
If the LG and the phone are on the same wifi it should show up by itself and you hit the source button and select the tv... i dont have a pic of that source button because im at work, but it happened all on its own for me...
Wow thanks that worked for a video I recorded. I used it for a a few pics but they have to be taken with the phone with a certain orientation. Ho can I use it with YouTube and Netflix and or Vevo?

I use imedia share to stream from my phone to ps3 since my tv doesnt have dnla. Should work straight to your tv if it has dlna

I took you suggestion and I am trying imediashare it has channels and one of them is YouTube and it works well. My TV does have DLNA and I think if I buy the imediashare paid version it will have the ability to stream internet as well in real time.
I received my official Allshare cast dongle today and although it is working I can't seem to get videos that I play to appear on BOTH screens at the same time. On various youtube reviews/demos, I have seen people playing videos with it appearing on the TV and the GS3 screen simulaneously. When I play a video it only appears on the TV and on the GS3 screen I get either a black background (e.g. youtube player) or a black background with the allshare icon logo on it and the player controls (standard video player).
What do I need to do to get the video to appear on both screens at the same time?
Cheers,
Richard.
The only way is to install another video player because if you saw a video showing doing both then they been misleading you.
Im sure its possible. The YouTube videos i have seen are not just ones recorded at the official Galaxy S3 launch demo booths but also from a fair number of unofficial user demos using their home TV's. I doubt they are all deliberately faked.
Also the videos all use the standard built in Galaxy S3 video player too.

I've got an Allshare Cast myself and it has no settings so Samsung must have fiddled it up to have both screens working because obviously it looks better in a booth with both displays running.
And I think Samsung turn the display off when watching videos because obviously you not gonna be watching both and it saves a load of power, so guess you just have to wait for someone to create a mod to get that done.
The Allshare cast does NOT mirror when playing video.
What worries me is when using the video player, it permanently leaves the Allshare logo on the screen. It is very very dim, but surely that could still result in screen burn after many hours of video watching this way!

There is some lag, yes. It doesn't make games unplayable, but it could put you at a disadvantage for multiplayer. Some games which are currently free on the Samsung app store are free and have optimisations for this system. Modern Combat 3 maintains resolution but suffers framerate drops sometimes in dual screen mode. Asphalt 7 maintains framerate but lowers resolution when the screen gets busy. The TV displays the main game, and the phone has a map of the course which is quite cool.
There is a bit of luck here, as it depends on the quality of WiFi signal in your home and interference can affect how well this system works. Certainly it has its uses though and I suspect there will be firmware improvements for it.

bugger, I wish they'd hurry up and release to TV version, I have a top of the range samsung tv which will work as the cast dongle when they get around to enabling it, i'm hoping latency will be slightly less too as its a straight hop to the TV bypassing the HDMI connections.

Hi, I have had my dongle for a few weeks now. Few problems and very upset with lack of support from samsung. I read you're message while trying to solve my issues. I have just used vlc player from the market and it plays video on screen and the tv together. Hope it helps. Wonder if you know how to make the image fit the my tv screen, it cuts edges of at the moment. Thanks and good luck

Thanks. Yes I since discovered that VLC let you do the mirrored playback after looking very closely at some youtube videos that demonstrated this mode.
Out of interest what other problems are you having? I haven't had time to test mine all that much yet. One thing that annoys me is that there is no on/off button so I have to unplug it to turn it off (I have it hooked up to my HDMI auto switch).
I can't get it to fit tv properly, sometimes requires two or three attempts to connect. Streaming Iplayer has audio sync problems, there is no alternative for audio out to a sound system and today it disconnected and refused to connect for ages. Had to unplug and reset with button at least 3 times. When is first got it my phone had no option for allshare and Samsung don't have any support on it. No one could tell me that I had to update through Kies on my desktop to get this option. All in all I do like it and use it loads, I'm just hoping the new official jb firmware will increase stability. Funny enough the guy I bought it of on ebay here in Turkey emailed me asking for confirmation it works as he has had loads of negative feedback from selling them. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt Samsung to create some support pages. But as usual xda dev prevails.

I have noticed that if you change channel on the phone it automatically disconnects the allshare connection. I never turn it off for this reason. But not very eco friendly I know.

There is a firmware update in the Samsung app store for the allshare cast dongle, available today. So far, there is a rapid connection established to the unit, stable. Sound issues also are resolved so far. Great update.
Hello to all. I am facing video problem in my s3. Every recorded video in s3 does not play smooth on windows 7, win 8. I recorded all video at default settings & it plays at slow motion & hangs. I don't understand why all s3 videos does not play correctly or smooth.
What video player do you use to play the videos? Also, do you use any codec pack?
It might not be a problem with the recording itself, but with the Windows' video player settings.
I suggest you try using VLC media player (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html) or KMPlayer (http://www.kmpmedia.net/), they contain their own video codecs, so that my cure your problem...

Is it possible for you to test the videos taken with your S3 on a completely different computer, ie on your friend's machine or something like that?
We need to rule out the computer as a culprit...

I tried many video player like vlc,km player,wmp so on. Still same. I think the video recorded by galaxy s3 was unable to play smoothly on pc due to its custom firmware. May be its the reason. I'm using MIUI RAYGLOBE firmware.

I tried standard app (playstore), Youtube_2.4.4.apk; YT 4.4.11_v4b.apk
all similar results.
Installed Adobe flash players also...
Anytips please?

Is the problem that Atrix cannot play 720p or above due to codec problems?

I have been through that forum and tried different versions of YT/ and installing methods.
New versions still plays better than older 2.4.4.
Many do play but a number don't - and unsure how to tell if they are HD etc (no icons in corner)
- various error messages - example attached
Since trying some youtube players (ie cutnpaste url - helps on many of them)
Same videos on S3 play no probs though...
MIght be something that I have to live with (1st world problems!)
The HD icon won't ever show in portrait (not enough room), but it will almost always show if you flip your phone to landscape.

i also still searching a sollution for this. i hope i can use mx player to open video from a browser. for youtube if using the stock one i got no problem but after update i also got problem to play the video.
they said its all about tegra 2 hardware.
just ported in for the 32bit remix, everything works fine just i cant play any video content.
1) youtube apps auto close
2) load youtube from browser , no video
3) cant play video with mp4 format on mxplayer
4) twitch auto close
ps: when i create a new folder on desktop that folder cant open. NO reaction.
is it anything i did wrong when i ported in?
thanks if there is any help.:angel::crying::crying:
Same issuse here on Vaio VGN21.
I have the same issue with 64bit version on my MSI AE2400, which has an Amd Mobility 4670 video card. I assume that video playback is still a work in progress.
But overall i am quite pleased with the overall feel of Remix OS
oh I thought I was the only one xD having this problem too on my aging Toshiba... everything else works though (for the most part)
BSPlayer is the only video playing app I tried that works. A bit clunky but functional.
Yeah same here on my Asrock Ion 330. MXplayer just doesn't play any format and VLC just crashes or just flashes and close. BSPlayer is the only thing that will play but it's very laggy.
hmmm....whenever you post any problems, its mighty helpful if you take the trouble to mention your system specs....like your video, processor...
anyways, try the boot flags posted here:

Am using a Lenovo S10-2
Just go to settings - applications, open your video application and grant fullscreen mode. Then it should work.
Best, maris
Kodi is powerfull mediaplayer with a lot of addons to choose, just google it man and give a try...

try to upgrade your laptop power or boost the adapter because somethines the CPU processor need enough power to carry that, like wise increase the ram to at least 8GB
