Airplay for android

Is it possible to stream music using apple's airplay so we can use the cool docking stations with android too?

Yes we can!
But we have to use honeyplayer app. It can play just music on airplay devices. No video.
Maybe with another app we can play video? I dont know

Yeah that looks good thanks, but you can only play music files which are one your phone and with that (crappy) player, and not with for example PowerAmp. And TuneIn Radio won't work either :/

Hi, do you know of any app that you could stream music from PC with Poweramp?

Actually, I use imediashare lite from the market... its free and I stream movies to my apple tv2 from my phone, play music through my speakers, its freakin great. No PC required, no extra programs to download... I don't know why anybody would use anything else...

Coool
thank's

I use Skifta, works good for me, its a free app and does amazing work, you can use our own phone or any other media servers, i use it to get data from my pc, laptop and play it on my tv and PS3

I've already tried iMediashare, but my Bowers&Wilkins Zeppelin Air unfortunately isn't recognized. I just wanted to know.if.there is any tweak to stream all sound that would go through your speaker with airplay, so that you can use poweramp etc. too...

Okay well then I'll give it a try today again

Androids are crazy
Actually, I use iMediashare as well and it will stream to any device that is on the same wifi singal as your phone. examples are ps3, xbox, wii, and even pc's.
I can watch any movie on my phone that is on my pc as long as im in wifi range.
I can play any movie or song from my phone on my tv via my ps3 or xbox. No additional software required. Just start imedia player on your phone, go to the movie section on your gaming device and select imediashare.
Actually the gaming system doesnt need to be on wifi. As long as it is connected to the router hardwired or wifi you can share media files with any other device connected to said router.I highly recommend this.
There is also software that will let you use your phone as a remote control for your tv or direct TV box, and remote view your pc. Teamviewer is also free. You can see a live image of your pc from anywhere and control it with a virtual mouse and keyboard all from your phone. Even turn it off.
Androids are crazy... lol

It still doesn't work for me. I will simply use a 3.5mm jack cable, thanks anyway

Will iMediaShare allow me to stream music from any app on android to an apple tv? I'm thinking specifically from rdio. This is a feature I really like on my iPhone, but I'm looking to jump to a Galaxy Nexus.

Does it support also subtitles in srt format?

Player for .MTS format
Hi!
For those of you that have been searching around for a player that supports the .MTS format (files from among them Sony videocameras), I found after some time the BS Player. It is a free application in the market that also supports hardware acceleration! Other players I have not found that supports this format, only converters.

No, you have to go into imediashare and it locates saved media on your device and streams it... it also has a couple dozens apps to stream from internally ... it may have radio come to think of it.

Folder based music player?

Hi guys,
I´m looking for a folder based music player. What I´d really like is something that would allow you to long press over a music folder and click "play"...something like that.
I was using Mortplayer but I got fed up with it.

Vanilla Music?

The best one I've used so far is FOLDER PLAYER by peter shashkin quite straight forward and really easy to use. I use it on my dx100 music player and its awesome
Sent from my MZ601 using xda app-developers app

Ubermusic seems to do the trick for me. Might be a fair bit old since the last update but is pretty stable compared to other players. Also uses the WP7/Metro theme look too.

PlayerPro can do this, but it isn't free (it's $5). If you long-press a folder you can get Play, Enqueue, Shuffle, Add to Playlist, etc., etc.
I don't use the folder feature (I prefer to use the metadata sort, usually by artist/band), but I have used it. It works good.

Best folder players
Poweramp .. not free but above all others
Mixzing .. has free and premium .. give free version a shot .. has lyric support too

I think that the name and target of the thread is not clear enough.
It mentioned specifically "aren't too popular". So... wtf is 'What's up' doing with that?! And most of the rest.
Please only put apps that you found, use and not seen in the first pages on the forum. Do not make this a list with your apps... please!

This. And I mean seriously, how long until these apps hit market? It's the most available platform. A cool app is a cool app on xda or store

But we already have tons of "what's your favorite app" threads. It would be interesting to discover new sous that aren't already on the okay store. But it's whatever. Do as you please everyone.

Nice j dee! I hate it when my youtube shuts off in the gym. Can't leave the screen on and put it back in my pocket
Come on peeps keep em coming. I like the list so far. It's small and precise not large and burgeoning. Let's go over something very relevant: STREAMING from your HD
Jbeans 4.2 Camera- Full Screen Camera (compared to 4.1.2) and gallery you could flash for your 4.1.2 phone
Mediahouse Player- An organized app that collects all the shared music videos off of shared directories on your computer use in conjunction with. Allows you to favorite directories/devices. Really neat app
mx player- easy ui can easily disable/enable hardware software encoding for audio and video during play
v player- like mxplayer, could be better with UI, but unlike MX player allows you to set buffer to a whopping 8mb...so longer initial load for video but plays back perfectly otherwise
ES file explorer- save network drives
I usually make the default player for ES v player and for media house mx player. Good setup. Mx Player allows you to manage defaults for video players in-app too. Another neat feature. Well worth the money for that app.
From the computer end there are a lot of options to stream (I made a post about this a while back...search on me) but I like PS3 Media server 1.70.1 for my PS3. It allows for real-time transcoding for devices where your video format (ie mkv) isn't available. I also install TVersity server on my computer end and both servers as well as the raw files allow me to wirelessly stream every tv show except for planet earth which has a ridiculous bitrate.
Only other thing to worry about on the computer end is to make sure your sharing settings etc are set up as openly as possible. I have a homegroup password and everyone in it is allowed to at least read my directories

Hey zetsui,
sure, I love my HOX and GNEX phones (by now even more than my PC) and why not participate in sharing cool underdog apps?
Is that Mediahouse player the one you can download from the Play Store? Sounds pretty usable to me

Way better than stock audio recorder. Can record as mp3 at 128kbit/s, good enough for me. Of course, you can increase it. Can record as ogg too.
Solid explorer

Like setcpu, but free. You can have 3 profiles in the free version. Ought to be good enough for beginners.
Also worth checking out: servers ultimate.

Does this use the same YouTube API that Falcon Pro for Twitter just implemented into their app? The video player in Falcon and this floating player look awfully the same. Actually, they look exactly the same. The Kobe Bryant video is on Falcon, while the Samsung Galaxy Note II video is your player. I can even control the other video by pressing play on one. When I play the Kobe Bryant one, the Galaxy Note video by MKBHD in your player starts playing. You should check it out, just sayin...
Nice app though!

[Q] Music Player

Recently I flashed Razodroid & used stock music app 1st tym after 10-11 months (long time though). I'm greatly impressed by its sound output. {Although I used to listen music via it very earlier (~2yrs ago) when on stock samsung...}
So, I want to know:-
* Is there any way to add stock (gb) music app support for CM & Android 4+ roms?
* & if not possible then pls. suggest some players which feature 5.1 channel sound & concert hall... ...etc. like features similar to stock music app.
Pls. answer both my queries.
Thnks...

Ui is awesome
