As a 'newbie' I hope I'm in the right forum!
I have an Asus Transformer tf101 running ICS on which I've installed Bubble Upnp (Free version).
I also have a Google TV running Android 3.
I'm hoping this software will allow me to display video from the TF101 on the Google TV.
The TF101 has MoboPlayer installed.
Do I need Bubble Upnp on the Google TV as well?
Will it play .flv video?
There seems to be a lack of instructions for BubbleUpnp, hence my question.
I'm quite prepared to buy the paid for version.
Is this the best software for my purpose? Or is there something better?
Any help will be appreciated.
I'm based in the UK.

Hi All,
Not sure if this is the best place to ask but... I'm looking for a way to stream .avi's/.mkv's over my wireless LAN to my new HTC desire. It seems that Android only supports a few video formats so I'm guessing I will need to do some transcoding on-the-fly. Is there any recommended software available for this? I've heard of TVersity but thats Windows-only, I'm running Fedora Linux.
Surely I cant be the first person to want to do this?
Thanks
Jeffers
I think Orb is supposed to do this but the comments seem to have mixed reviews on how well it works.

Orb looks to be Windows/Mac only, no Linux builds. Theres bound to be an opensource solution somewhere.
An player that streams video files... ?
im looking to see a streaming tv is there an APP for that ?
ive tried all wiki,pandora ,vlc...
nothing works on my pov mobii andr 2.1
Hi
Happy with the Asus but video playback is a little less than I expected. HD youtube videos splutter and will not play smooth in full screen mode. Changed the browser settings to desktop and tried the bbc Iplayer site. Normal definition videos play OK but are poor quality in my opinion. HD just splutter even more badly than tube. Will honeycomb 3.1 solve this problem?
We can all only hope!
Usage outside UK
I really enjoy BBC programming and watch the iPlayer a fair amount on my PC. Now that I got the transformer I thought it might be a good idea to install it, alas seems the app is only available in the UK.
Are other routes available?

Just access to bbc iplayer via the web browser if you have a uk vpn or proxy, it's working fine. No need for the app.
Proxy refused
Don't have a VPN (and don't know how to get one) but I do have Expat Shield that provides a UK IP adress, but Market said; No, no! Can't do that. I suppose I will need a different account setting?
If I'm not mistaken, expat shield is a program to be used on a computer, there is no android version. For a good vpn you should subscribe to a paid service.

Ahh, I thought I could log in to Market from my PC and just send it to the Transformer.
This raises a follow up Q; Is there a good service available for both PC and Android devices? Especially when you have multiple devices.
Hi, there is always get_iplayer and rtmpdump, check out...
infradead(dot)org/get_iplayer/html/get_iplayer
But since the update to 3.2 the stock video player doesn't seem to want to play HD content (SD is fine), I can transcode using handbrake, but on 3.1 they played brilliantly :-(
Now I'm from the UK so I've no need for a VPN for this content so I can't help you with info regarding that, but you might need a setting for get_iplayer get around a verify / sync error, I have the following lines in my 'options' file...
flvstreamer /usr/bin/rtmpdump
rtmptvopts --swfVfy h++p://uuuuuu.bbc.co.uk/emp/10player.swf
rtmpradioopts --swfVfy h++p://uuuuuu.bbc.co.uk/emp/10player.swf
Hope this helps.
Hello All,
This is my first android operating system, was always apple and windows before. I am loving my new TF700 and already found 4share.
My question is advice on apps to help me out. I have a home theater PC filled with thousands of movies, what is the best way to stream it to my tablet? Also, is there a good app for downloading things from my PC over wifi?
I saw that this tablet came with something called Splashtop, is that the best way to remote desktop? Or should I be looking for something else.
Sorry if these sound like n00b questions, I just thought this would be the best place to ask since we are all using the same device and I thought some/most of you have already found something good to fill this gap.
Thanks!
you can stream with a file manager, such as File Manager HD. I use BSPlayer to stream my blu ray collection.
you can also copy items from your pc to device by using File Manager HD as well. Just go to settings, LAN connection and scan until you find it. Then just put in your credentials. On your pc, just make sure you set the sharing permissions accordingly.
Im not sure abut splashtop, i use ubuntu, but i hear its a good app.

Sth called MyNet comes preinstalled, it uses DLNA. You can try Movie Browser HD too, for example. There's bunch of similar apps for that, search the market in case these two don't satisfy your needs.
Remember to switch DLNA on on your PC.

The best one I ever used is VPlayer, it's way better than BSPlayer which volume is significantly lower. Its UI is way better, you just swipe to right or left to get local, streaming from media servers or urls. Try it.
Servio and Plex runnng on my home server covers all my needs server side. I stream to a host of different tablets, phones, remote access browsers, and google TV. Plex is my preferred method, but also use Bubbleupnp To stream and download from the Servio server software.
the mynet one on the stock infinity turned out to be great ! thanks guys . im really intrested in buying a roku and running things to more devices now
i've been using similar apps like Skifta or twonky beam to serve videos from my tablet to my DLNA smart TV.
one limitation i realized is that they either only stream LOCAL files (on tablet), or stream from selected websites only.
is there any app that allows true mirroring of the tablet screen to my TV? i.e. there should be no restriction in the website i want to stream from.
i'm using HP touchpad on the latest CM nightly build.
TIA!
anyone knows?
I would like to know but as long as I've searched I didn't find anything that would mirror ur phone screen to TV, maybe vlc (the way it's fine one computers)
As for streaming any website it may be possible but no app as of now

seeing how Airplay is a huge success on apple devices, i'm confused why android doesn't offer a similar solution. still on the lookout for an app that can mirror anything that i stream from a website, from tablet to TV.
Imediashare is great. Not sure if it can do any website though..

We have a gym with Technogym Equipment and are located in the US. We have been asking for Technogym to add the US Streaming APPs like Youtube TV, Hulu, Sling TV, etc to their APP Store. To date they have not done that. Their IPTV and TV APP do not work well in our location. As a European company they have not made US APPs their priority.
Unity APP and Hardware is an Android Tablet device with Android 5. The Technogym APP store has Netflix and Youtube. They work fine.
Is there anyone on the forum that has experience with the Technogym Hardware and done any side loading of APPs? How would we go about loading Youtube TV? What issues if any would we run in to with the account data?
Any help would be appreciated.
