DLNA

I played with DLNA last night and for the most part it worked, but not with the Xbox. Has anyone else tired? Post your results here.
Worked well over wifi. Its not something i would use often tho, usually streaming it from my comp allows for better control and flexibility. I could see some situations where if you went to a friends house and they had some enabled tv's or etc you could pop in some movies off ur phone.
Really its the only way to HD content from it to a TV as the TV out is composite. Sucks it doesn't have HDMI out.

[Q] Potential WiFi issue

Hey,
I just got a TF300 and I've been trying to get video streaming to work on the tab. I'm using BubbleUPNP and I've tried about a dozen video players to go with it (dice player, vplayer, moboplayer etc etc).
The issue I'm having is that the video just randomly stops. I'm not having any issues relating to video quality or file formats. I'll be streaming a video and the video will just randomly stop, and because its streaming I can't resume at the same place I have to start again.
I have not yet managed to complete a single video without it being exited at a random interval. Its not always the same place, sometimes I'll get 20minutes in, other times 10minutes of the same video file.
I'm using iSedora media center to stream across my internal LAN. I've been using this program to stream to my TV without issues for over a year.
At the moment it looks like WiFi could be the culprit however
a) I've used WiFi Analyzer to find an unused channel for my router
b) I've tested the stream right next to my router at about -20dBm to -30dBm
c) I have tried a factory reset
d) I have tried 8dBi antenna and they just made my signal worse
Any assistance here would be amazing
Thanks

Have you tried UpnPlay?
Just so you can rule out the client.
i use emitapp for streaming - works perfectly over lan and at work.
it does allow resuming from a specific point in the video as well.

Audio Video Mismatch

Hi, I just purchased a new TF700 and have been hoping like crazy, that it does not have any of the issues some people have been running into, again with another top of the line Asus tablet. So far there are no blemishes on the screen or case, the screen fitment seems pretty good and there is no creeking of flexing when pinching or pressing on the screen. The light bleed is not crazy bad. The GPS and wifi work great. It prompted me for an OTA update shortly after turning it on, and streaming video while listening via my S10 bluetooth headset, does not cause network drop. I was just about to proclaim it as near perfect, and then I ran into this. When streaming archive video from an internet network the audio and video don't match. I can pull it up on a Galaxy SII and SIII phone running ICS on the same wifi network and it works fine. But every time I stream any of the videos from there, it is never in sync. And not all video streaming is like this. Youtube from either the app or website are in sync. And so are videos from both the Hulu and Netflix apps. I watch videos from this internet network nearly every day, and have to try to get this figured out. Does anyone have suggestions or information pertaining to this issue? Is it related to this particular processor?
Oh yeah, and it does it when using the internal speaker only too, no headset whatsoever.
Thanks,
I have more interesting details as of today. I work with someone who has an Asus tf300 tablet and I tested it today. When connected to the same wifi network, and streaming the same video from an online network, the sound and video were out of sync again on my tf700, however the tf300 was dead on. Is my only option to just exchange it and hope the next one is better? Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks,
Bluetooth lag has been addressed here before and is likely the root of your issue. Use the search feature to do some investigative work and you'll get to the bottom of it. Here's a good thread to start at:

Ok thanks for the response Chief Geek, but in my case it isn't Bluetooth related, because it does it when no headset is attached, right through the factory installed speaker.

Gotcha. I stream a ton of different media from my home server to devices, to my TV via google tvbox, and to browsers outside of my network. The issue you are getting can be adjusted inside some video players by a time delay settings if it is consistant enough. If not, try playing with different file/container type comos and also different players can make a difference. Its a real PITA and happens on all my devices occasionally, even my 8 core laptop.

Yes, unfortunately this happens from within a browser, and I have tried several. I know there are no such adjustments from them. The thing that is annoying is that it happens with the Infinity every time I try it, and other Android phones and tablets seem to work fine. I just tried one of the new Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablets, and it also works good.
I tried Asus support today and they just had me reset the device and see if that would fix it. It didn't. I think the fix for me is going to be to return it and get the Note 10.1.

NETFLIX on Omni 4.4.2-20140207-1805

Hi,
Some of you may remember me from my "Android Kit Kat 4.4.2 on Motorola Xoom' thread. My Xoom WI-FI now has the latest ROM
4.4.2-20140207-1805+0100-wingray-HOMADE. I just loaded this version about 45 minutes ago. Earlier today I loaded the Netflix Android App
from the Google Play store. I started to play an episode of the Netflix Series House of cards. When the episode started the subtitles (captions) were enabled. So I touched the little icon on the screen and I chose no captions. Once I did that the program continued to play without any sound what so ever. So, I tried another program. I chose a Movie that I had never watched on any TV, Blu-ray player or other device.
The same phenomena occurred. Movie played with subtitles on, I turn them off and the sound stops playing. Yes, I even plugged in Headphones.
This Phenomena does not occur when i play movies through my FIREFOX browser on my PC nor does it occur on my TV or Blu-ray player.
So, I called NETFLIX tech Support. They had me try several things (like use another WIFI network in this case the WIFI hotspot on my phone) to see if the problem was related to my router.
Also, on my WIFI XOOM Tablet the playback of netflix Streaming freezes and the buffering circle spins. This may be also related to issues with the ROM and the Netflix Android app. I do have a Wireless N network and I am sitting in the room where the Router is.
None of these problems occurred with the last GOOGLE approved ROM.
The Netflix tech found my thread from January. It is possible that NETFLIX techs will be posting to this forum. So, has anyone had any issues with NETFLIX using this ROM?
Thank you in advance

I have not experienced any netflix issues with this ROM. I even use it through chromecast. I've tried what you stated and did not experience the issue.

I can confirm the behavior experienced by bigfootmd. Netflix is very sensitive and will stop playing sound. If you exit netflix and restart, sound is back. In addition, the HDMI output freezes and becomes unuseable, independent of the sound problem.
I am running 4.4.2.20140215-1029+0100-wingray-HOMEMADE
Domunus: when you play through Chromecast, your feed goes directly to the Chromecast device and does not pass through your xoom. Your xoom is simply a remote control. This is probably why you do not see the problem. When I cast, I do not see the problem either.

2 Problems regarding Streaming/Mirroring and slow Internet

I am trying to stream my Gear VR experience using a paid app called Screen Stream Mirroring. I can get it to stream with no problem however, any streaming I do results in a video fee that is EXTREMELY laggy, unwatchable. I'm connected to my home network, which I have zero issues with when streaming 1080 from my PC. I downloaded a seperate app to locally record what's on the screen, as soon as I start playing a game, it records it fine but as I go to watch my game through a video player app, the video is choppy. Maybe 1 frame for every 3 seconds. Same as when I stream for others to watch. Same thing happened when I connected my chromecast. My TV shows a mirror of my phone but it is horrendously laggy. I've had some serious issues with this phone since day 1.
Any idea what could be causing it? I've seen other users stream and mirror with no issues, why am I unable to do it? I can't record, I can't stream, and I can't even mirror to my tv because it all lags horrendously.
I'm using a Note 5. It's not running stock I'm using a custom OS and firmware courtesy to XDA.
I am currently using TEKXodus rom and SkyHigh kerner.
Last issue I have, and this is something I have had since day 1, is when ever I try to watch videos on youtube or download files, it's significantly slower compare to my Note 3. I can not watch 1080 videos or 720. Even at 640 my videos sometimes lags! I don't understand why, I have unlimited internet. I called Tmobil but they said that everything is working fine. Anyone has any ideas? I really dislike the Note 5 ;/ I miss my Note 3
