Hi! I need an application to view video and play audio in my Topaz from my NAS connected to a wi-fi router. I connect the router to PS3 an everythings is ok. If i open the nas ip with opera on the phone i see the configuration page of the nas and i see the file inside but if i open, it obviously try to download it, but i want to play it in real time lika a streaming. I try with media player but it doesn't want to play the video from nas url. What can I do? is there an application that act as a media renderer for my phone?
Another thing is that it will be fantastic if i can choose a file with my phone from the nas and play it in my ps3 or in my pc...
there is a streaming application included, have you tried it?
yes but it can't see my network
tried resco explorer?

Apply the A2DP patch and stream music and video via bluetooth to your phone. Other than that, you have to do it via http and wifi.
Setup Media Center at home.
Then install this.

hey presto, streaming media.
As long as you have a decent uplink from your home, you'll be fine.
I can stream music/movies to my 3G PDA and Smartphone from anywhere in the world
problem
thanx for the tips!

my media centre is down ( i've been tinkering :? ) i'll check it out when it's back up and running.
Hey guys,
I'd like to listen to an audio internet Windows Media stream, which is password protected. I do have the password. Problem is, I don't have a program to play this stream.
I tried Windows Media Player, Coreplayer and Internet Explorer. First two are having trouble with the password protection. "Access denied" is the only response, not able to enter any password. IE just shows a placeholder like the ones for pictures on the internet.
Does someone know a program to play Windows Media Streams (audio only) with password protection?
Thanks
cya, the_at
Can anyone help me with that?
Additional information: With Internet Explorer for PC I just type in a standard http://www. address. The stream itself is mms://
How knows a program to play this stream on a HTC HD 2? Program has to be able to handle password protected streams (I do have the password)
Hey,
again some more infos:
When I connect my HD2 via USB to my Laptop the TCPMP Player will play the audio stream. (Laptop connects to the internet via WLAN). When I connect my HD2 directly to the internet via WLAN(same network, router etc. as with the laptop) TCPMP player will not play the audio stream saying "The protocol mms is not supported". However other websites such as google can be accessed from Opera browser or Internet Explorer, meaning that the internet access generally works.
My question is: Why does TCPMP say "mms" isnt supported when connected via WLAN and doesnt have a problem when connected via USB --> Laptop --> WLAN?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Cheers,

i tried setting up a upnp and it worked fine over wifi but doesnt seem to work over 4g and im not sure what else i can use to setup a working stream.
if you have the option to set up an ip address in your upnp player, you could try a service like dynamic dns to give your server an outside IP, you'll have to forward the ports in your router, but instead of connecting to 192.168.1.100, you'd connect to myserver.dyndns.com in your upnp app.
how are you getting 4g to the transformer? some sort of myfi?
evo 4g. with the filter proxy to get better speed

Hello,
I'm trying to stream video to my asus eee pad transformer with upnp (ushare) and my tablet is not able to play video even over wifi.
What app did you use on Android as client? Is this a player which can connect directly to your upnp?
Thank you in advance.

upnplay and mobplayer. file were hosted through windows media player. currently look at a render to use to stream
Thank you for you reply.
I hope you'll find a way to read your stream over 4G.
I was having similar problems, my TF can see the movies on my shared drive, but when i click them it cannot play them using the 'my net' app.
I have installed 'PLEX'
http://www.appbrain.com/app/plex-for-android/com.plexapp.android
(and the server on my PC.)
you use the server program and add the folders you want shared, then you use the app and you can stream lots more formats than the 'my net' app and you can specify the transfer speed/bandwidth etc.
the server app grabs meta data for the files you add from the net and adds DVD cover art to your movies as well.
I didnt need to do any port forwarding or anything complex with it installed on Windows 7 home premium, it just works.
It also says it will work over 3G/4G but I havent tried yet.
Also, just discovered, the app UPnPlay http://www.appbrain.com/app/upnplay/cx.hoohol.silanoid is very good, it allows you to choose the app that you want to use to play the streaming movie with,
so you can use rockplayer moboplayer or vplayer etc. I havent found a single file format that wont stream yet using a UPnPlay-rockplayer combo.
still no luck on finding something that would work over 4g beside myCloud.
Alright so I am looking for a way to stream media from my Windows7 machine to my phone in a nice easy way if possible over my local wifi network for now, over the internet would be a plus... I am running a 2.3.3 rom but my biggest problem I think is getting software to turn my computer into a media server that my phone can recognize and then start streaming media from my media hard drive...
Any ideas or suggestions... would love to know what you guys are using!
Thanks!
I use serviio to stream all my movies and shows to all devices in the house, for the phone to see all shares I use upnplay and mobo player for unsupported formats. Also if you have smart share on stock builds that works really good.
Plex works best, I've tried many alternatives.

Ya Plex is awesome, I completely forgot about it. Plex shows you artwork for all your media, very clean look. You can also set it so you can access it over WiFi or 3g from anywhere. As long as you have a decent upload.
ES File Explorer
allows you to view shared files over LAN. just share the folder you want to view (or put it in the "Public" user folder). Built in video player and image viewer.
VLC does this as well.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.vlcdirect.vlcdirect&feature=search_result
Just open up a share to the folder, and provided your rom (well, more specifically, kernel) has cifs support, it's easy. If you don't want to mount shares manually there is an app in the market that does it. (I think it's cifs manager, if memory serves.)
Hi
I know it has been posted before, but I am not yet satisfied with the solutions. Situation is that I have my mp3 collection on my NAS, I can access it via upnp, itunes server or samba.
However, there doesn't seem to be UPNP player that fully supports my setup (my mp3s are in folders Music\A\Ark\Album1\trackXX.mp3) and I am only able to play single albums. Besides that, they usually do not look very nice on my Honeycomb tablet and do not support headphones control.
Second option was mounting CIFS partition and use normal music player app (my favourite is "Cubed"). This works, but my NAS is being accessed all the time because of "media scans" etc, so it cannot properly hibernate.
Is there something better? I am getting quite jealous on iPhone/iPad users who can easily stream their whole music collection via built in iPod app.
Cheers
I also have a NAS at home, with SMB enabled. I use ES File Explorer to play files from the NAS. You could also enable the media server on your NAS, and use 'UPnPlay' from the Android Market. Good luck.
Well that's what I tried - both samba and upnp. Samba works but Android keeps checking my samba share too often, draining my battery and preventing my NAS to sleep. The other option (upnp) works, but my directory structure isn't recognized by bubbleupnp and I can only play single folder. So I am still looking for more optimal solution ;-)
