Hi, Hoping this one hasn't been posted already - couldn't find it in a search.
I use Windows Media Centre in Vista to record TV shows. I then use Windows Media Player to auto sync those shows to my Pocket PC (TyTN II but that shouldn't be important here).
When syncing, Windows Media Player does alot of (essential) file conversion, which slows down the syncing process. Does anyone know if it's possible to set WMP to do this conversion as soon as the file is recorded, so that when I plug the device in I don't have to wait for conversion?
Sorry I dont' know. I use tivo to record, which transfers to my pc, and from there I stream it using winamp remote.
but you might not have an unlimited data plan i guess
I watched a video not long ago of playing music with your HTC sensation through the Playstation 3 via DLNA. I've had no luck on setting it up. Has anyone did this and if so how?
No idea how to setup DLNA with a PS3, I am having problems with my Sony BDP-S570. Any help is appreciated.
I was wondering this too, when i use connected media app and select video my Tv shows up , but when I select it as a player it always state that its unresponsive, tv doesnt show the phone as a media server either
Download Twonky app from market. Open app, go through settings tv/other device should pick up phone. Any probs let me know...
Not sure about ps3 but i have used 2 player (free market app) to play music on a variety of DLNA devices.
Oops didn't see this was an old thread that got bumped!
Use the app "Connected Media"
I am using Imediashare from market, easy to setup.. work with music, photos and videos
Great!

Works like a charm!!!
You can even share online content
Has anyone had any luck sharing media to an Xbox 360? I can stream photos only, using the connected media app, via WMP on my Win7 notebook.
I'd like to know if it's possible to share stuff (photos, music + videos) directly to my XB, using DLNA or not, either way.

I use doubletwist with airsync, it allows you to airshare to ps3 and xbox360 and i think a few others too
I've. Used all apps here but no one of these are working on a Samsung home cinema system.

It's dead easy (when you know how, and for Microsoft's definition of "dead easy")
First, you need to set your Xbox up as a Media Center extender, so with both the Xbox and your computer on the network and no firewall blocking anything between them:
1. On the 360 start Media Center, it will give you a numeric code
2. On the computer start Media Center and add an extender (tasks, then along to the right)
3. Enter the code the 360 displays and you should now have the 360 accessing the MC of your computer (you can close MC on the computer)
4. Open Connected Media on your phone and select the type of media you fancy streaming
5. Select the media (for photos, it starts a slideshow starting from the pic you select, if your pics are too large then they won't show for long due to their loading times, but you can pause them on the phone and manually go through them), you should then be taken to the player screen where you can select the "Xbox 360 Media Center Extender" and done
See? Wasn't what was required obvious?
Oh you'll need your computer on whenever you want to use the 360 as a MCE, but you don't need to log in (with W7 at least - the MCE logs in with it's own account in the background).
Basically, the 360 doesn't enter DLNA mode unless it's acting as a MCE, of course there's always the chance MS will release an update that allows DLNA without needing MC on a PC, but I wouldn't hold your breath.
I have external hard drive connected to my router. I have music and videos in this drive. How do I connect to it using Windows Phone? I can't seem to find any any app for this.
Other DLNA clients are usually able to automatically discover and play media from that drive. But not sure how to get Windows Phone to access it and play media.
I tried TVersity, it kind of works but it does not seem to play all format (my .avi files aren't playing)
I tried OnePlayer - it discovers the drive, but it only plays music.
Hello guys,
I have a Desktop PC as a home media center.
Could you tell me if there is any app using which i could use my Speakers connected to my PC for streaming music on my Android through WiFi?
Thanks in advance.
Well I don't know much about streaming, but you might be able to set up a vnc server for your device
Setting up a vnc server allows you to control your device from your PC, so if you play media on your android, it will play on the PC
This might be a good app to start with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.schumi.vncs&hl=en
Hey guys,
I know it is quite common to stream media from PC to android or stream content from android to a smart TV or Chromecast etc; but is there any even reasonably elegant solution to stream media to PC.
I am well aware that I could use VNC (or similar) to control the PC or access files on my tablet from my PC using an FTP setup, however I am looking to playback media through PC from my devices.
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance,
install " bubble upnp " on your android device and launch it. make sure your android and pc are on the same wifi then launch windows media player othe the left side near you should see Bubbleupnp and click it.

I have used this app but I was not able to stream it, what can be the possible reasons?
not to fimiliar with similar apps. but ya bubbleupnp is weird if you have movies or pics they have to be in the DCIM?/the camera folder where the device saves stuff from the camera.
