Anybody successfully use this feature? Just use market apps like twonky?
I'm surprised more people don't use this feature and improve on it like they did with HDMI mirroring on the evo. How awesome would it be to mirror your device wirelessly
Somebody point me in the right direction plz.
Yes! It works with iMediaShare (market).

I was wondering if anyone has tried to stream from the inspire to their PS3 or even Xbox. It's supposed to support DLNA which should let it stream media to either device but I have had no luck with my PS3 so far. I've even tried changing settings on my router with no luck. If you've gotten it to work please let me know if there is anything specific you did or if it worked out the box. I'm hoping its something simple I'm just missing here. Thanks for the help in advance.
I ended up downloading the Twonky app. It's free and it will allow the PS3 to access the files on your phone. I was even able to play videos recorded with the phone. DoubleTwist didn't work as well for me.
Seems to be an issue with the PS3 as there are a ton of discussions on the net. The way is should work is that the phone should act as the controller like it does with windows media player, not letting the other device pull info.
I'll have to give that app a shot. Thanks
Hello,
Wondering if I can get some general help, I know the google TV is american only but I like to have some fun as well.
First, I can't download the google TV Remote app on my samsung galaxy i9000, I've tired downloading an .apk but it just didn't work, any suggestion or how to guides on this.
The Google TV works better than I first though it would in canada I can control my PVR some what and I faked an american comcast zip code and the search feature works some what but of course the programming and channel numbers for comcast don't match my Shaw Cable account, is there any way around that, in the settings I noticed it was pulling that info from some file, any idea how to trick it?
Also I am quite disappointed with the way I can't play almost any media files on my computer, the closest I have come is using my playon media service and the m.playon.tv with my lan on the google chrome but its so bad, was getting some Hulu access if I was running my VPN but I kept getting time out errors, worked fine on my phone browser tho. Any suggestions or other programs or ways?
Forgot to add, I am using the Logitech Revue
Thanks
Dave
Bump!/Update
Very much thanks to BluechipJ for sending me the google TV app, worked out great.
So more of the reading I've done seems that this box just doesn't support local media files very well, I've tired a few media servers,
TVersity worked somewhat good, some play back on all files but still couldn't get a great all around experience.
Playon which has been my main media server works the best so far, but only on the mobile side, if you use the browser and go to m.playon.tv and have it setup on your computer you get access to hulu (with VPN) and all your media. Interface is not very good on the m.playon side but it works. Still having problems getting complete hulu playback and have issues with larger MKV files but I had those issues on the PS3 so still have to figure out whats causing it.
If anyone has any other suggestions or experience I'd like to hear some more.
Bump/Update
Just wanted to do one more and see if anyone else had any suggestions, after more reading and trying out some new things finding Twonky is a good media server pick, for both the google tv and your phone.
Whats great about Twonky if they have your Twonky Manger on the computer which Logitech revue will recognize and mainly works in logitech media player, MKV still an issue if you have the right audio code it would work, I've switch to downloading MP4 files as I can still get good quality and it works well.
Also there is Twonky mobile for your phone, works well with the logitech revue as you can play videos music and pictures right from your phone to the TV, the Beam option doesn't work to my knowledge but isn't a big deal to me.
I'm sure lots of people know about Twonky already but it was new to me and worked very well with my Galaxy S and Logitech revue and seems to be a good system, the app is free but Twonky Manger is $20 I think, also works great with a PS3 system as well.
Hope to get some other suggestions or Ideas, kinda weird updating my posts all the time.
can anyone find a way to enable all share cast in galaxy note for wireless mirroring in tv like the galaxy s3?
Is it a matter of an apk and lib file from gs3 system?
im interested too, please help xda
not useful
i think this will not work with ordinary smart tv, it has to be use with provided Dongle , how ever there is few complaints either. so instead of asking about its APK, we should wait & see when its start working flawlessly.
Hi All,
in Italy we use on our android tablet and smartphone some nice TV apps that doesn't work if you try to mirror or redirect the video on TV.
We would use this apps on our box android TV, but the apps always check if you are using hdmi port and , in this case, crash.
There is any way to hide the presence of the hdmi port for these apps ?
Thanks to everybody could help.
Regards

original thread: http://freaktab.com/forum/development-area/app-developers-kitchen/4820-hdmi-virtual-switch
Is there any other app out there that will hide the HDMI? I'm trying to run a tv app on my fire tv and the app won't play live tv because it's hooked to an external monitor (TV). But it works fine on my fire stick and on fire tv it goes into the app lets me log in and even goes into the channels but won't play them due to being hooked to the tv. It's the Brighthouse streaming app I'm having issues with. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am having the same problem but with Shaw direct freerange app. All the other apps output fine to the hdmi port but the freerange app now denies sending to a larger or even smaller external screen. It used to work before but no longer. Hdmi virtual switch doesn't work, it just locks up. RCA tablet android 5.0 k3.10.54.
The message i get when the hdmi cable is plugged in on the tablet end even if the tv is off is " mobile device only". These are mobile devices.
Hi. I really want to wireless view my Sensation screen on my TV, and I'd be glad to use chromecast to do this. Anyone fammiliar with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193 knows that you need a ROM that supports it. So I was wondering if there was a ROM that does so.
