Allshare and PS3 Issues..... - General Questions and Answers

I'm running rooted 2.2 on captivate. I've tried to play videos off my phone through all share on my ps3 to no avail.
It won't play the videos i've taken with my phone (mp4) and it won't play downloaded movies (avi).
So my question is what format does the video have to be in to work, or is there something else i'm misssing?

anyone have an idea?

Have similar problem playing some videos so I just mounted the phone instead to my ps3, about the games no idea.

Allshare like app for Nexus S?

I just sold my Vibrant and bought a Nexus S and was wondering if there was another app like Allshare that I could use to stream movies from my PC to my phone.
I really like Allshare cause whenever my wife insisted on watching f'ing Jersey Shore I could allways bust out my phone and choose a movie from my library without have to get off the couch to upload it to my phone.

I'm not sure if we have the DLNA capabilities...I'll look around and see.

Swifta would work great if it would play different types of video files.

So we do have DLNA? I searched around and I couldn't find a definite answer.
Damn I was going to buy the nexus s but I use allshare all the time. Especially when family comes over. I stream the photos and hd home videos to my tv.
Do you think if I took the vibrant version and used it on the nexus it would work?
Dlna needed of course.

Twonky works for me, I stream to my ps3 and the nexus s does have dlna.

iMediaShare brings DLNA capabilities on any Android phone including Nexus S. In addition it also enable playback of online videos as well as sharing personal photos from Facebook and Picasa.
Hmmm.
I tried searching for imediashare (and scanning the QR codes that are on their website) but it's not showing up in my Market....must be a protected app or something.
Oh well.
Damn it. Maybe I could get the imedia apk found some where.

I was able to find Twonky though.

I read on another thread that the Allshare app on the Vibrant is tied into its framework and would have to be modified to work.

Try again. It should be there now
Last post is December, so did you guys find a way or did everyone settle with Twonky, Skifta and iMediaShare?
You can stream video with Gmote.
Although the dlna works fine I really wanted the AllShare app to control the TV, anyone know how to get it on the Nexus S or at least why can't we?!
Is there an OS version issue, cause I have downloaded like 3 AllShare apk but none works.
I`m currently using the 2.3.4 version.
Thanks in advance,

anyone able to watch itunes-purchased movies in sensation?

Guys, I just purchased some HD movies in itunes (TF3 and a bunch more). Problem now is I didn't realize doubletwist CANNOT remove the DRM. So now I'm stuck with a bunch of movies that I can't play in my HTC.
Anyway I can get them to my phone to play? How will I remove the DRM? I'm using a macbook pro if that matters.
Thanks

I've looked at this in the past to convert iTunes movies to DIVX files to play on my media player but I've never found a decent solution to be honest.
There are things like iSkysoft iMedia Converter that claim to do it but it's not a great solution in my eyes.

Have you tried it?
Which one? The Mac app, or the other wired link? I've used the Noteburner app a couple of times, don't use iTunes that much any more, and it did a fine job.
Haven't tried the windows program that the wired link in the article leads to...
ok i thought i could avoid using itunes by using htc watch instead... now another purchased movie later, and I just found out htc watch saves the files as .eny format, and no way for me to use doubletwist to stream the movie as airplay to my appletv.
any suggestions? I don't have an mhl cable yet so that's out of the question (i'll be buying one though as an alternative)... i really would like to be able to stream wirelessly to my appletv.

You can use QTFairUse(free) or burn itunes songs to cd to remove drm from itunes music, however, as i know there is no way to bypass drm from itunes movie on mac os x

Video out issues?

Anyone ese having issues with video out, when it is a downloaded movie from the market? Normal videobout for apps and games is fine but when i tried to watch a movie that i downloaded fromthe market for $.99 it would just freeze the screen. As soon as i unplugged from the tv it started again. Tested several times and it was only an issue with downloaded movies.
Non rooted transformeron most recent software.

Wow, Nothing?
I am using the correct cable as far as I know it is just a standard mini hdmi to hdmi correct? As I said it works on everything else, just curious why I can buy a 99 cent movie on the market and pipe it from my tablet to the tv.

Google Play Movies

Does anyone know how I can get my rooted gs3 to stream or play my downloaded Play TV shows on my phone?
Any ROMS that will work?
I am currently on Clean ROM and it doesn't work.
Thanks
Are you trying to stream from phone to ps3 or ps3 to phone? If its phone to ps3 then get this app... http://db.tt/Vd3t7QaO It's called twonky. It use to be in the store but now its gone. Hope this helps.

I'm trying to get it to play on my phone.
Since I am rooted the movie will not play.
Looking for a work around.
I'm rooted and my stuff plays. Are you on a TW Rom? Or an AOSP Rom?
Edit: never mind. It plays all of ten seconds before it hangs.

Try the Voodoo OTA RootKeeper, it allows you to turn root on and off, I use it for the Redbox Instant Beta and it allowed me to stream movies.

Sounded great, but didn't work.
I couldn't even play a copy of the file. Still got hung up after ten seconds as usual.
