I have a Measy u2a tv stick and want to play normal dvd files with my android tv stick. That's the reason I bought the thing. Just to hook a Hdd on it and play movies.

Try wondershare player, you can play dvd files
You could try the archos video player with the third party codecs both available on the playstore.

Is there currently a DLNA / UPNP PLAYER (going from a server to the phone.... not the other way around) for Android?
I believe the Galaxy S phones were supposed to have one? If so, did anyone extract them?
I also would like to know if something like this is available. I can play back mp3 and jpg on my Desire HD, but not video files.
My GT-I9000 Galaxy has a program called AllShare. I just use Media player 12 on my WiN7 machine and it allows me to stream to AllShare. I can play divx movies, tv series, and other videos just fine off my home wifi network.
Gmote for audio works great.
I was looking for more for the video option. I have a ton of divx / xvid on my server.
When I use astro with the smb addon..... I can search the server but then I get an error when Rockplayer tries to play it.
estrongs isn't able to let me login for some reason.
But since my NAS has dlna and upnp I'm just looking for a simple player or app that can search dlna.
I've been looking for an app of this nature for over a year. Still no luck. I would guess that the developers that would be closest to being able to get this going would be one of the video player developers such as Rockplayer or Vplayer alpha. They've already got multi format playback for videos. Now if only they could playback these formats as a stream from dlna/upnp.........
Bumping. With the release of android based tablets dnla / upnp video players are going to be a huge win.
Anyone with a good answer?
Skifta?

I agree, AllShare works great with my Samsung TV and my laptop being the server with all the video files. My laptop has ubuntu with MiniDLNA as the server. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732005 has a link to dlna.apk (which is allshare) weird thing is all the permissions it asks for when installing :/ even wants access to SMS which i thought was weird
for video try http://www.appbrain.com/app/vlc-stream-convert/com.gmail.traveldevel.android.vlc.app with vlc on your pc
if you want only music http://www.appbrain.com/app/twonky-mobile-free/com.pv.twonkyremote works nicely with windows media player library shararing on local network
i've been searching for a good solution for a long time now. I have an ampache server setup now but its cumbersome, none of the ampache apps on android are that great.
Does twonky work over the internet?
no it doesn't but you can smoho get vlc stream and convert working over the internet
The best I have been able to come up with is using UPnP with an app called UPnPlay - in conjunction with VPlayer (which for me is working smoother than Rockplayer).
It's not dlna but it's something.

I have played with lots of different dlna players but by FAR.... the best app is called
iMediaShare - it works perfectly with windows 7/XP (windows media player). You can play music and videos that are on your pc on either your PC (using your phone as a remote control) or play them on your phone streaming them from your PC.
Also there are TV channels like Nasa or Youtube you can use your phone as a high tech tv remote.
Amazing!
P.S My frav before this was Twonk
P.P.S My frav phone browser/streamer is 'Browsix' (again AMAZING!)
P.P.P.S my title is not right sorry, it should say IMediaShare

I'd use one of the DLNA apps, such as Twonkey or Skifta. You may need a decent DLNA player - I use BubbleUPnP player combined with Dice Player for video. If your media is hosted on the PC then you won't need a server as it's all built in to Windows.
So far the set-up above (Skifta / BubbleUPnP / Dice) works really well for me allowing such fancy operation as playing a video on my pc that's stored on the Transformer using my HTC Desire to control the whole thing.
The transformer does have a UPnP server built in but I didn't get on with it at all.
DLNA / UPnP is, IMO, the way to go.
@ mace
how do you setup the upnp server on your PC? I tried using BubbleUPnP on my TF, it can detect some music on my PC but most can't play. Thanks

Do you know of an app that plays FLV on Asus?
Maybe Flash player in the web browser?

dice player, mx video player or bs player lite work with downloaded flv's.
Imediashare, there is no transformer version in the market, but you can extract this app from android phone. Works great.
This is not a free or super cheap solution but it is Awesome:
I use Cyberlink`s PowerDVD 11 Ultra on my Win7 PC (which is connected to my 42" Plasma TV), PowerDVD Mobile on My Asus Transformer Tablet. and PowerDVD Remote on my HTC Incredibe (Android Phone). All devices connect seamlessly so you can easily share, play and download media across different platforms.
First off... Power DVD 11 Ultra is simply superb for playing any video file, DVD, or Blue-Ray Disc on your PC.
Then I use the PowerDVD Remote on my Android Phone to command PowerDVD 11 Ultra via WiFi Router.
Then I Can Stream Music and Video to My Tablet using PowerDVD Mobile.
Plus a lot more features.. to many to list (I hate typing..lol)
Go to the Cyberlink website and check it out.. but search the web to save a lot of money if you decide to buy it.. I noticed that the "eCrater" website is selling PowerDVD 11 Ultra "by Cyberlink" (for PC) for $29.99.. I paid more a few months back.
Once you have PowerDVD 11 "Ultra" you can download PowerDVD Mobile and PowerDVD Remote for Free via the Google App Store.
Try weezo 3.0 : Photos, Music, Video, TV streaming from your windows PC to your transformer, remote admin, and a lot more :It's a free App and you have nothing to install on your TF101 !
Android support is new with the 3.0 release, a few bugs left but really awsome !

I can't seem to figure out how to play the following stream on my transformer? I tried BS player as well as stock browser and dolphin for pad.

Hi, this is an ASF stream (Windows Media Video 9 - WMV3). On your PC try to save it (stream it) to a file with Videolan etc. and then (re)encode it with Mediacoder, HandBrake etc (DVD Catalyst has presets for Android devices including Transformer but it's not free). Good luck.
Agreeing with above, and adding that IMO Handbrake is your best bet. Encode the file as MKV. Android can play MKV files natively.
Thanks guys but what if it was a live streaming?

i use download helper to make a copy of live recordings on my pc then do the conversion later using what ever program you like.
have you tried Tunein Radio app? it's a player for online radios, and I use it to listen to a Radio I like that broadcasts in Windows Media format (at least for it's desktop edition).
Its a video file though

Is that link still active?
Try the streaming on yxplayer... and tell us if it works
have you tried using remote desktop and have it stream while you view your desktop?
Hello,
Recently came across XBMC for streaming media content. Works pretty good on the TF700. Just wondering what everyone is using these days for their movie/tv show streaming?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda app-developers app
I use FX file explorer to get to the file then MX player to stream.
I would prefer xbmc if it wasn't a battery hog and had a way to prevent inadvertent screen touches. MX player has that feature.
You can't know your limits until you exceed them.
I use Plex and the usual steaming apps like Netflix, Hulu and Crackle.

BS player is a pretty good choice for streaming via local media server.
es file exlorer - fav free
or

dice player - fav & free ...
AW: What are you using to stream tv shows / movies?
i have PC with SageTV running as central TVServer for recordings.
Unfortunately those recordings are stored with strange naming-convention and are spread over several drives and folders. This makes it quite complicated to stream seamless.
So there are two ways i use to watch those TVrecordings to my TF700
1. use SageTV-app for android to browse & download and then play with MXPlayer
2. use splashtopHD to connect on the serverdesktop and directly stream the remote-desktop. That works pretty well in good quality and without stuttering if wifi-connection is in good shape.
I have also tried plex-server and android-client, but i don´t like the android-client of plex
Watching live-tv is done using Dreambox with enigma2 and approprite android-app to browse epg & stream.

I am using a straight SMB share from windows, bsplayer gives me smooth play with a 10GB+ BRrip. May have something to do with my beam steering wifi router, but I get great, smooth video on wifi.
Coming from a iphone I always used Moviebox to watch movies on my apple TV. I loaded Showbox on my rooted S Off HTC One and can not figure how to aiplay to my Apple TV. The apps I downloaded from the store allows to airplay from i tunes music/movies but do not have the option when using Showbox.
Anyone accomplished this?
Allcast works well.
