Note 10.1 as a second monitor

Just intersted to know if anyone else is using their tablet as a second monitor and what software / setup is being use and there general latency / experience is like. I use idisplay on both USB and wifi and performance is pretty good, refresh is high enough to watch web video but it crashes media player when I drag movies onto it, havent found out why that is yet.
I mainly use mine as a second monitor for use with Presonus Studio one, I sometimes drag the midi track or a vst synth onto it so I can twiddle the knobs with touch instead of my mouse.

I use splashtop 2 on mine to access my 2 monitors.

Hi.
Has anyone found a way to use both usb at the same time? Was hoping to find a multimedia dock along the lines of the one launched for the note 2. Anyone got suggestions?

I wanted to try this also. I DONT think its possible ATM. If you trying to watch movies or look at pics from the external storage devices, best bet might be to connect the tablet to TV through allcast wireless or DLNA.
My TV doesn't have wireless but I have a Samsung blueray player. I have internet connection plugged into it. So I can connect my tablet to blueray/TV through dlna connection. Works fine like that for me.

+1 wanting this kind of dock. Would be great

Shouldn't be that hard, considering that most other samsung tab/ note products have multimedia docks.
Been hoping to find a solution to the issue for a while.

What model Blu-ray Disc™ Player are you using?????
Best buy USA has a refurbished Samsung Blu-ray Disc™ Player (BD-E5300) that has AllShare for $39.00 free shipping. I was thinking about getting one as a don't have a Blu-ray and I would love to be able to use the Allshare with my Note 10.1.
Thanks for the tip.

Btw can you play games via all share ? And does the dongel need external power ?
Been looking at different workarounds on the usb and hdmi , thus far nothing that's quick and easy.

As in, to output to the TV? Not to my knowledge. But I don't know everything either :silly:

No not for the 7" variety sorry

It just makes me wonder why they wasted the dock connectors on the 7 inch if you can't use them. Should have just put a micro USB on the bottom like most phones.

You could still use DLNA but you will require a tv that supports dlna.

Not sure that will work for netflix and youtube. It does work with video files, picture files and music files.
They have a new DLNA app called Allshare cast. But it only works on these so far. (Galaxy S III, Note II and Note 10.1)

Request: Remote app from new HTC One

Hi,
a friend of mine just showed off his new HTC One and the included TV-remote control, which can learn from the original remote. Is it possible to port that to our Note 10.1?
Can anybody help me here?

I don't think so cuz it needs the "I R" blaster on the phone or tablet.

I know, but my set is not fully supporte by the peel smart remote. The HTC-remote looks to be used intuitively, easy. Hmmm

The Note 10.1 only has an IR blaster, not a receiver. It can't learn from other devices. Quite a shame as the Peel remote software is pretty limited and they never seem to respond to requests.

I just got my HTC ONE on Friday the 19th & setup my tv remote control then got on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 & i stalled the peek app that came on it to use the tablet as a remote control. I bought my tablet back in January on the 19th & thought it only worked on flat screen tvs but when I hooked up my HTC ONE, I tried to hook up the ta let again & it worked flawless,y. I still have old school tvs with the big backs so I thought it only worked on newer ones such as plasmas or flat screens.

This is how a regular after market remote for multiple devices works and would be great, but any better remote app would be good enough for me. The standard one is just slow because it's trying to be a TV Guide as well and I don't like it. A simple widget with the remote part would be perfect!

[Q] Is it possible to stream movies from my laptop to my nexus 5?

I have the Acer Aspire V5-431 series laptop.

Thanks

Could always use DLNA apps

I use bs player

Or why not just run xbmc on your nexus 5 and shazam all the movies and TV shows you'll ever need. Gotham beta running great on mine.

How about plex? I mean though its not free, if possible you could test plex with someone else's laptop to use the free Windows app to see if it works for you.

The obvious solution is connecting the jabra to the laptop. Resolving that issue is where you should focus, not some crazy work around.
Check other BT audio can connect to the PC and then troubleshoot from there.
