How is this supposed to work? If my PC ( win7 64bit ) is on and I have enabled streaming ( I currently can stream to my PS3 in another part of the house) i should be able to see my files on the phone and stream from the PC to my phone, right?
Unfortunately i don't see any media servers listed. This is with the phones wifi turned on or off.
Has anyone else gotten All Share to work?
Work on my Macbook
Works on my un55c6500.
is ur comp set up ok? and i've only streamed from phone to comp and tv not vise versa.

yes. but maybe it only goes from teh phone to the computer? Not sure...
I'm also having trouble getting Allshare to play media from my pc (win7 x64, running PS3 Media Server). I can see the server and files on the phone, but they won't play, even transcoded ones.
Works for me connecting to a Vista machine.
Works fine for me on W7 64bit. I'm using windows media player to serve. It's pretty fast too and great quality. I jumped around on the videos and it buffered pretty fast and without any problems. I'm liking it a lot. The only trick is sorting out which videos are playable. It doesn't like certain codecs.
So how do you get it to work? It sees my shared drive on my computer but no files come up.

Hi
I have read the letters DLNA in every review of Samsung Captivate. Does anybody know what it is? And or how it works. Any kind of information is helpful.

basically you can share stuff over a network or wifi to yer mobile device...that is what AllShare is for.
For example... I can stream (via WiFi) videos from my Windows 7 computer to my Captivate. I can also do the reverse and stream videos from my Captivate to my computer's Windows Media Player or my hacked WDTV media player.

I have DNLA setup on my PS3, but I cant get it to work with the Captivate using AllShare. Whats your setup ?

I don't have a PS3, but if you have and want to try it over Windows 7:
For Windows 7->Captivate, you'll need to go to "Network and Sharing Center" and turn on "media streaming" somewhere in there. The files must be added in Windows Media Player's library. In the Captivate, select play from a server.
For Captivate->Windows 7, the Captivate's name shows up in Windows Media Player's left side. Click it and it shows the list of what's on the phone. In Captivate, just start All Share (nothing else).
anyone know how to have All Share NOT stretch the resolution of the incoming video and keep the aspect ratio of the file?

Annoying, isn't it?
In the actual "Video Player" app you can control how the video gets stretched - but not in the AllShare player. Why Samsung would choose to torture us like this is beyond me, but it makes me hate them so very much.
I will pay anyone who can figure out how to hack that size/aspect button from the video player to the allshare player.
Interesting....

I'm installing it just by clicking it in on the phone (not using adb) and it just says not installed. Any idea why? I will try twonky though, thanks guys.
EDIT: adb gives me "Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]" when i do this. My phone is rooted. Hmph.
EDIT2: I just tried twonky server. It works perfectly, i think its better than the samsung app, so i'll just be using that. Plus it look cool

Good question. I am a Ps3 play myself and although i have already managed to stream videos with my phone over to the Ps3....i am still curious about music. I may try it later and report back what i find.

If your Ps3 and phone are connected on the same network then they should "see" each other fine. If you scroll down on your Movies category on the Ps3 you will see your phone listed there.
Well, I can see my phone in Movies, Music and Photos on PS3. I can even see the songs and the photos I have on my phone. However, when I try to play a track I get DLNA 2104 error. I can see the thumbnails of the photos but when I try to view it I get a "network error". Is it possbile that this happens because my Netgear router is not configured as an Access Point?

Oh ok. I got that same error as well. Basically you want to make sure that:
A) Your Firewall (whether its 3rd party or just windows xp/ vista/ etc) is set to allow your device (ps3/ phone) to stream and share files.
B) Allow "network and sharing" center's Discovery mode and "file sharing" within Windows (or whatever OS you are running).
c) Also tell your net-gear that your Ps3 and phone are allowed to share files as well. I'm not quite sure how Netgear has their firewall setup. You may have to open DMZ (wouldnt recommend it tho).
I think theres more....ill have to post back when i remember all my steps...lol
a) What the Firewall on my computer has to do with the connection between the phone and PS3?
b) Similar to a). It's about the phone and the PS3 not the computer, right?
c) I'm not sure how do I do that.
Hi,
Anyone got it working? I've tried many times, it can see the folders and files but when i click on any video files and add to playlist or right click/play, the player would load and just stay that way no video or nothing.
Thanks
Edit: android stock 2.21
This is strange, what are u using to share (ur server), windows (xp or vista or 7)?
or maybe another android phone?
Hi,
I am using my router's usb port with a harddrive attached. I tried using my windows 7 pc to watch the videos everything is fine but not my i9003. Tried to watch a video that is shared via my windows 7 pc on my i9003 doesn't work either, just loading the video and then nothing.
Thanks
HI guys can you help me with problem.
I can see all my photos and movies on my phone via dlna on WIndows 7,
and i can play and pause it right on the phone, I can use my phone as a remote,
all works well.
But I cant find the same thing for OSX,
i can only share files from my Imac, i cant use it just as a screen like on a PC.
Does anyone know how can i solve this mystery?
I have HTC Sensation,
Tnx,
Marko
Well first off, are you running any DLNA or UPnP app on your Mac? You'll need one. Some good examples are Playback, Rivet, Plex, Connect360.
I'm not too familiar with the Sensation, but does it include or have a DLNA client built in?
yes i have connected media, it works fine with windows

Did you try using AllShare over wifi? I don't see how the 360 would simply be able to interface with an Android phone over USB.

No I haven't and I figured it'd work because u can play movies from other similar devices through USB, it basically would do like a computer and show you the files stored on the device for playback but I can't get mine to work

Did you try mounting the USB from the phone's notification menu while it was plugged in? Keep in mind that the phone usually mounts 2 drives at once (internal and external SD), so I'm not sure what the 360 would have in that realm of USB support.

Actually yes I did try that and im guessing since it does mount both at the same time, the 369 cnt catch them both since they're both from one device

I'm not sure it will mount the sd card to a 360. I know people have issues with usb equiped radios doing this.
also all share won't work. last I checked the 360 doesn't include dlna. though it could easily be added in an update ms doesn't seems interested in this as it is already upnp and a media center extender. I think they want to give any reason to have the newest updates of media player because they need wga to install and makes people want a copy of windows that's not pirated and pushes widows 7 with media center.
you would need a upnp market app or a media server with dlna. then you may be able to find media from the phone on the server and route it to the 360 with either upnp or as a media center extender.

oh that's a thought. if there are issues because it shows 2 drives you.may be able to unmount a sd card from settings beforehand. worth a shot really.

I covered that in my post. he is connected to a media center pc. you need a pc wIth win 7 or vista or xp media center if anyone still has that running to do this. on its own it doesn't support dlna. this also means you may need a copy of windows that passes windows genuine advantage. not 100% on that but i tried the whole media center extender back in the day with xp pro and added the proper files and registry keys to make it into media center (but better) also added the tablet pc files and wanted to add wii mote support but didn't have a wiimote. I had trouble getting it to work because I coulnt update media player or something. I haven't tried since windows 7 came out because I have a dlna tv.

Oh, I misunderstood the thread I found that link in. I thought Media Center was a reference to XBMC or something. Disregard my post.
Try an app called I media share.
Turns your phone into a media server over your wifi connection. Works great on PS 3

Okay I'm kinda pissed at myself because I has the same issue with my ps3 and figured out how to do it but now I can't remember. But give me till tonight and ill figure it out.
Infuse running infused v2.0.2.
Umm, why not just connect it to the tv directly?

its streams through your wifi network. you know how you stream movies from your pc to your 360 or ps3? yea same thing just with your phone. the free version kinda skips and doesnt work very well but i got the paid version and dont regret it at all. it's on the market try out the free version see if its what your looking for
here is my 2 cents.
the xbox can only see the main usb drive. aka. if you have a usb drive, and it has multiple partitions, it will only see the primary first partition.
this is an issue even with some portable hard drives that have a flash partition built in for their driver software, thats the only partition the xbox sees.
it also only sees fat32, and your phone is ext4 probably. or the other formats.
there could be 5 reasons it wont see it.

The internal storage is always FAT32. You're thinking of the system and app/data partitions.
What im trying to do is to get my ps3 to connect to my androids as media servers. I am NOT looking for an app that connects to media servers- there are a ton of those on the market. I keep ALL my music on my android devices. I would like for them to BE the media server. Though, it seems there are few apps that do this.
I tried "Remote media!" From the market. It works up to the point where I go to listen to an mp3, then times out. Otherwise, my ps3 can connect to my android and display all the right folders. But there are some bugs with actually streaming the content. Didn't get it to stream once on either of my devices.
Does anyone know of such an app? Thanks for your help!

I tried media, though it wasn't locating my media and seemed to be a bit bulky of an app with all the options of websites to stream to your tv. I mightily it again in a few, but really lookingbfor a simple clean app. I wish remote media would work.
Twonky Mobile - very bulky though.

Share Me - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sygem.android.shareme_free Worked okay from what I remember, but I didn't buy as I have all my stuff on my Nas - was just testing it out.
share me and remote media seem to work up to thebexact same point- until I click Olay. so this might indicate an issue that I can fix. But what issue? Upnp seems enabled on all devices. what else?
Any help?
Look out for an app called media server or something like this from Sony Ericsson. You won't find it in the market because it's one of the preinstalled apps on the Arc.
It has dlna capabilities too and worked for me when I tried to connect with my PC

Im very frustrated. It seems this works properly, but there is some upnp error as far as I can guess.
I have newest firmware for router,
Enabled upnp on ps3,
Servers are running on EVO/jetstream,
Ps3 shows all folders, files, and even images from the gallery,
Images show with no problem,
When playing an mp3, it says data is corrupt, when it is not.

Air sync
Android device and PS3/Xbox need to be on the same wifi source.
Run air sync and you can share media to anything pretty much. Here ya go.
