s6 DLNA - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

on my s5 when i played a video i had the small icon on the top of the player when i hit it i could stream it to my tv or xbox ect.
i read that The video player has been simplified too and the DLNA view is gone. You can still send video files to DLNA players or use screen mirroring.
how do you send the video to dlna players now ?
the only way i can find to do this is to open quick connect then select the files i want to play then stream them, less then ideal and slow at going through the multiple steps.

bUMP ... in the night ....
anyone at all please ///

The S6 isn't officially supported for screen casting yet. Expect to see see that icon return to the stock player then. I have been trying to play with chromecast screen casting and it is crashing constantly. Hopefully they update the chromecast app soon. As for DLNA I haven't seen an option For it in the stock software, grab bubbleupnp from the play and you can stream again.

Hi guys. On my old Galaxy S5 in the video player i was able to see and play movies directly from an external HDD connected to the router (nearby devices tab). Now on my new Galaxy S6 Edge i can't do that anymore. Someone knows how can i see and play movies form the external HDD connected to an Asus router? Thanks!

No that doesnt work. I confirm no dlna on s6 after 5.1.1 upgrade.
Looks its a strategy of samsung because note 4 doesnt have dlna as well (and didnget it long after launch).
But no one seems to care about here? Im pretty decieved , but now sony are making great phones. I will trade mine for z4 or 5 if i find the oppurtunity
Bye samsung

Note 4 doesnt yet have it and was launched sept 2014. No it was dropped on purpse by samsung. Sadly i didnt know that before i bought s6 . No review mentionned it because it strangely dsnt look important for most users i assume.

Download a 3rd party app like Skifta! It worked on an older phone. It's the best dlna app.

As fun as it is to be indirectly told I'm either A) wrong or B) lying, I promise you that this works on my S6 after the 5.1.1 upgrade. I use it all the time. Maybe it's carrier-specific? What carrier are you on? What video app are you using?
And when you say "That doesn't work" (tech support person's dream), what do you mean? Do you not see the option? Do you see the option, but no destination? Do you see the destination, but the content doesn't transfer?

Sorry for the misunderstand, I dont want to tell you are lying. The option exists but it doent work with windows media player on my pc (that is my only use of dlna since i have no connected tv ..) with the exact same configuration that used to work with my s4
Im under 5.1.1 / 920f / windows 10 / wmp
So could you tell if it works with your pc ?
Moreover samsung didnt mention its dlna support at launch (wich i thought they simply forgot such a basic feature ) neither announced it was back wih 5.1.1
Sorry again for any bad impression i left earlier.

Thanks, and no worries. My response was a bit tongue-in-cheek.
I think the problem stems from you asking about something different from the initial question. The initial question was how to send content from the phone to the TV, which is what I answered, and which does work, and which is, I believe, DLNA.
What you seem to be asking about is how to view content from your PC on your phone. I'll admit that I had a mighty struggle with that, even on the S4, so I have never tried it with the S6. If you got it working on the S4, you're already a step ahead of me. I never bothered with trying to do it on the S6, and if I want to view content on my phone, I just transfer it over either by hooking up a cable or by using FileDrop, although the latter is kind of slow.

Now I can be more precise about my problem. I can't share content between WMP under windows 10 and my S6 , thing that I did easily with my S4 with the same configuration.
I thought first that it was due to DLNA incompatibility since it was not present in the S6 launch. But now I tried on a smart TV and it works great. Still though I can't detect my phone with WMP and vice versa. I think that is DLNA as well so no reason it doesn't work.
If someone can do than it should come from my settings. Otherwise It's something samsung deleted.
Edit: third party DLNA apps work well.. so the problem is with samsung video app. What a shame they drop such options!

[Q] Video capture format and playback on wifi HDTV

Hi,
1)
I want to know if is possible to change the recording format of the video capture because the 3gp file can't be read on my players (DLNA TV LG, DLNA BR LG, PS3).
I don't want to re-encode the file on my computer before to read it.
so i want to capture it directly on exploitable format like avi, mpg, mkv ...
2)
I've try to play directly an video to my TV, like it explain in the tutorial on the phone (menu on the played video, select player) but i can't find the tv.
The Tv and the phone are on the same wifi network.
someone succeed to stream video directly on is TV ?
i've ask it to HTC support and my provider (SFR) but no one know
thanks
I'm having the same issue my wife and I got the phone yesterday and we arr unable to find each other, nevermind any of our TVs or blurays.
I am able to find my mycroft tversity and play the videos on my phone but unable to send it to any other device. Need some help anyone figure it out? There's got to be a step I'm missing.
I think there is a section that DLNA auto-IP which is not checked (setting->wireless and networks->wifi setting->press menu soft button, choose advance-> at the end of settings.). Maybe this help to connect with DLNA devices. I just guest that be cause I don't have DLNA device to test. Please try this and let me know is it work or not

How do I mirror video and audio from Android to a PC/TV?

What I'm looking to do with my SGS3 is WIRELESSLY mirror the audio, and video of my phone to a HTPC/Mac. Apple via "Airplay"allows for this in iOS and it works BEAUTIFULLY using a client on the pc/mac like AirServer, or Reflection. I find it difficult to believe that this is not available on an Android platform. The problem is, searching for such an app almost always results in finding remote desktop apps n such. Watch a video using Airserver or Reflection, and you'll see what I'm looking to do. I've seen media player apps that'll send videos/audio, but not by mirroring the actual Android device. I know I've gotta be missing this somewhere.
There's an app called MirrorOp Sender that sends the video to a connected receiver/client, but it's VERY slow, and does not support the transmission of audio. MirrorOP Sender also requires the device to be rooted. Not like that's a huge deal to me, but perhaps to someone else.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Here's the video I think you might have been talking about. I was unawar that TeamViewer allowed for the control of a phone FROM a pc. I thought it was only to control a PC FROM a phone. Thanks! But it should be known, though this is a seriously cool option. Audio still does not transfer over the wifi, only two-way video communications.
And so the hunt continues for something like AirServer and Reflection on Android. Don't necessarily nee to control it from a pc/mac, but would really like a wireless audio/video presentation platform for Android.
Bringing this post back to life in hope someone has a new idea. Can someone please explain to me why the ability to mirror audio and video from Android to a PC/Mac isn't available yet? Thanks

I am looking for the same, Although the other way. I think there are bunch of apps to mirror your Display but audio is not possible due to some limitations in Android framework.

I too was looking for an app like this and honestly sat there and started to wonder why i actually needed it.. can you explain a senario where this make sense and why an app that beams audio/videois not a good enough solution. hell i am with you on having more options including a featuer like airplay mirror, but maybe untill such application exists i can suggest good enough work arounds because like you i spent MANY MANY hours trying to figure out how do do this mirror thing with no dice. but i did find nice workarounds..
Holy hell, finally I think we might have a solution. I haven't tried it yet, but clearly, we aren't the only ones in need of this feature.

Looks promising. SplashTop 2 works other way round but is too damn pricey.
Just reviving this thread because I am also looking for the same thing. That app posted in the last post, BQScreen, as far as I know doesn't differ from the one the OP stated. Both apps don't transmit any audio, they just mirror the screen. MirrorOp is kinda cool because you can control it both ways, you can also use your mouse to click buttons on your computer to control your phone. Keyboard also works so you can reply to all your whatsapp msgs from your computer but at the end of the day it doesnt transmit any audio.
I use a galaxy note 2 and have never had the need to do this before because both the tvs in my house that get the most use happen to have a computer in the same room and I have them set up to just send the computer's screen to the tv screen and use unified remote/xbmc remote to do whatever I want, thus ending the need for allshare cast/apple tv devices which in my opinion offer an inferior experience than a full fledged HTPC.
The problem is that I have a tv in a room in my house that is getting more and more use lately and it doesn't have any way of showing netflix or youtube or all the files I have in my media server, etc. Basicaly, no access to the internet and I bought the tv right before all the smartv craze started. I am now on the search of a way to mirror my phone's screen (or anyones) to that tv in order to give that tv some added value. Of course I would still need to have some kind of reciever in that tv to get it to work so I really don't know what I am searching for. In the end I will probably end up purchasing an allcast dongle and use it specificaly for that tv, that way all tv's in my house would have access to all the media in my house and the internet but if anyone here has another option, I am all ears.
I have google tv and youtube connects nicely, i'm not sure if that's what your looking for though. I just connect and it plays the video on my tv.
Reviving this i case the 4.3 framework has changed to allow this functionality. If someone with knowledge of such things can chime in that would be great!
Bumping this topic, years have gone by and still no solution?
mirror from koush is the closest thing ...
it's meant for airplay so you can just install airserver on your pc
Chromecast
Google Chromevast
Looking for the solution. AirServer works on Windows and promises Google Cast support but it looks like it only casts audio from Chrome desktop tab. Google Play Music app discovers the chromecast device but music doesn't start

M8 Amlogic TV box (geekbuying :~{)

I have problems with M8 Amlogic tvbox recently bought from Geekbuying (and so far no response to emails requesting support - not good)
The unit looks well build and basic performance, speed, display etc is OK. I've flashed the latest firmware (quite easy). But, big but...
UK TV streaming doesn't work properly:
BBCi player app: sound, but no video (black screen)
4od app: plays downloaded videos, but streaming live content gets "can't play this video" error message
Eurosport player app: live content gets "can't play this video" error message
Can anyone shed a little light into what is wrong here please ??
is there a missing codec? or a missing app ?
thanks, I'd love to fix this - then the M8 will be a great performer - at the moment its pretty crap.
Not much of a response....

Response received from Geekbuying was basically,

the request for return and refund for something not fit for purpose was ignored.
Here is one who won't be trading with Geekbuying again.

Try to install the update or re-install the ROM. I never has these problems before
Hi Sorry to hear your having problems
I have just bought the same OTT 4K TV BOX, Quad core, 2GB ram 8GB internal from amazon listed as fully loaded and rooted.
I can only speak for my box purchased sept 2014 and so far it works flawlessly... if you want UK live channels (i'm in uk anyway) google
for Mobdro.apk and install it to the device it works and stream a multitude of channels including all uk channels.
The included XBMC 13.1 works well and is preinstalled with all the popular video addons which auto update to fix dead links and non working
streams and 80% stream very well, yes some links are dead but thats the nature of the 3rd party apps put on these devices, the manufacture
and seller has NO control over these links etc.
I have taught myself how to completely reinstall the devices firmware and do a reinstall of apps and even the XBMC custom setup and again the
box works perfectly. To backup XBMC use USB SD Card pluggin 1.1.6 it's by far the quickest and best option to avoid problems.
My box has a startup logo saying Droidplayer.co.uk if yours is the same google them, go to their website where you can download the
DP app v2.1, put this on the device, uninstall XBMC and reinstall it via the app which will also redo the custom addons (big download though)
Early days for me but so far so good, box is well made with slightly skittish software here and there due to the 3rd party apps etc.
Provided remote is rubbish so have ordered a 3 in 1 air mouse keyboard remote.

Hi,
Not much progress really, I've flashed various upgrades (now on 7/22 firmware) with a little improvement; 1024p HD now works for playing videos (best with MXplayer so far) and BBCi player now works in HD, but no progress with Eurosport Player which refuses to play the live streaming data "cannot play this video" - yet it will play the videos from previous days. I guess either Eurosport use a different format for the live stream and the M8 is missing either a codec or some DRM data.
It is such a shame because my main use for a tv box is Eurosport player, then video quality overall is the best of any Android TV boxes I've tried, but the others all worked with Eurosport !
Does anyone have any clues ??

I hope you've managed to get this sorted by now. But I just got mine and had the exact same problem as you did. Reading this thread, and the response from @leezaal got me thinking about using the stuff from droidplayer.co.uk and sticking it on my box. So I tried it, and it works like a charm. Here's the link to get it working for anyone who's looking at this:
http://www.droidplayer.co.uk/blog/?p=351
So all in all, follow that link and you should be sorted, thanks to @leezaal and the fully loaded XBMC from that website is very useful.
Hi Willmott1992 and thanks for your offer of help, but it didn't.
I have lots more in XBMC (I guess this is "video underground"), but my subscribed Eurosport Player still won't / can't play live video stream and the problem only seems to exist with the M8 box.
Does anyone know what codecs / DRM files are required to enable the Eurosport Player app to function ?

Hi X1iGGVV,
Thank you for your response.
Do you (or anyone else) know why Eurosport Player won't play ?? This is what I'm trying to find out and hopefully find a fix.
I contacted Eurosport technical support and their reply was (as expected) 'Android TV box is not supported, only phone and tablet' - loosely translated as we don't want to know - funny because it works on my old Justop Droibox Lite tv box. Sadly they wouldn't answer the question what codecs are required for it to work.
If Eurosport player works on most android devices (including TV boxes) then it ought to work on a high spec. unit like the M8 ??
Hi!
I have try to get some help from Huawei P7 community, and instructions about to get colection of missing Codecs. It is about streaming codecs and compatibility with Mali-450 GP. P7 have the same graphics and there is a product that is made for Europian countrys. Hope to get some respons from the owners or developers for P7, just for the reason that is wrighte HW and tha I know that Eurosport Player working on P7. Specific Codecs have to be coped in the Vega box and in the directories that Eurosport Player looks for the codesc. I know tha this is a way looking backwords for Vega development just for that fokus is on 4K videos playing a lokal and not sreaming. I´ll not give upp, it will works!
On the other side I can undersend Eurosport Player support team that no help leaks from the team about hardware that is not fully compatible (codecs include) with europian market. It is not Eurosport team that have to fix it. It.s a developers of HW that have not think about something that is far away from China , Eurosport Player works from Europian IP networks and it is not posible for China developers to check upp every single app.

[Q] s6 Gallery app display on TV??

Hi,
Does the S6 Gallery app allow you to share/view your pics and videos on your DNLA TVs? I have a Sony TV with DNLA and I can currently share using the "screen" button at the top of the image/vid.
Not even sure if this is a Lollipop feature or a Samsung Gallery app thing. Assumed the latter as Quickpic doesn't allow this.
Thanks
There is something flaky with DLNA and this phone. I have a Panasonic smart tv with an Xbox One hooked to it. I used to hit that button in any app and have the choice of the TV or the Xbox. Now, YouTube videos only allow me to send to my TV, and gallery stuff or stuff playing in the Video app only allows me to send to the Xbox. It's bizarre and annoying.

Well I have my 64GB S6 now and I do have the option to share the media (photos and video) via my DNLA TV as you can see from my attached share menu below. when I tap, I can choose the TV there. However, I cant be sure if this is built in to TW or Lollipop or part of the BubbleUpnP app I have installed. Whatever way, it's MUCH faster at sharing/casting to the TV than my old S4 was. Very happy.
Hope it helps some and would appreciate it if you can see if it is available to you without the need of BubbleUpnP... I dont want to uninstall now I have it!

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------
found this while searching out the problem
Actually Samsung has made a change to quick connect on the S6 edge. Quick Connect will play music to your DLNA device now ONLY if you use Samsung's music app. Try this open Samsung's music app and start playing a song, then swipe down from the top and tap on "Quick Connect" and you will see and be able to play to your DLNA device. Now close the Samsung music app, open the google music app and follow the same steps as before. You will now notice that "Quick Connect" has lost its ability to locate your DLNA device! Not happy Samsung.
For videos, I think you need to do what Soopuk shows in that screenshot up above. You hit the Share button, then one of the options is "View Content On." I'm not at home right now to confirm, but I believe that allowed me to send video to the Xbox One.

p20 pro problems with deezer and tidal

Hello everyone,
There's a strange problem with the device, I do not know if anyone else has come across it yet. As I know the device supports the flac file.
Both apps do not play flac files.
deezer plays some songs and then pops a message "the requested content is not loading"
This happens both through wfi and when I use the cellular network. I have no problem using a router for 4k content in Netflix. Deezer's technical support says they have no idea what I'm talking about.
I checked the app on Samsung A8 with the same router, the app works great.
I suspect it's something to do with settings, or a software problem.
I've tried so far:
1. Change the application management to manual management
2. Cancel lte volte
3. Delete and reinstall the app
4. Reset device to factory settings
Does anybody have any idea?
Thanks in advance
Not sure about FLAC, but I have Deezer and using with my P20 Pro (Canadian version) and do not have any trouble.
If you give some tips to test FLAC with my phone, I will do it quickly, I am curious.
I was under the impression that Deezer hifi wasn't available through the android app for normal download/streaming. It's only available for streaming to Chromecast or similar. At least that's the only options I have.

tidal app making greater problems with hifi plan
you sould try it yourself.
this isnt happening instantly, its happening after few songs that are playing in the p20 pro.
if you will look in the web and run the error message "The request content cant load" deezer you will see others that reporting it.

I have no option to stream hifi, yet I have the correct account and can stream flac on my pc and squeezebox (ick stream).
And from what I can see from deezer's support android only works through casting to another supported device, otherwise it's 320kbs HQ
support.deezer.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115004588345-Deezer-HiFi
Even deezer's forum has stated that neither iOS or Android support direct steaming in Hifi yet.

Are you using your phone with headphones or Bluetooth? Or casting to another device?

thanks for checking it up!
most of the time im streaming it via Bluetooth to my car head unit with no problems
the problems start when im using my p20 pro without streaming (no headphones as well)
question, even if android cant support hifi playing without streaming to another device
why my p20 pro is working and then after few songs getting jam? even more what kind of sound quality my p20 is outputting? cuz im still getting hifi symbol when im playing songs direct from the p20.
have you look at my video? you can see it.
another thing, its not ok that deezer dosent saying anything in the ad that show that hifi plan
its kind of stupid.
Just watched your video, HQ is 320kbs MP3 not flac I'm afraid.
As for the loading issue I can't say I've experienced any problems (UK based if it makes any difference) but I'll have a play and see if I can replicate it.

i think i understand what happen.
i took the hifi plan via pc (this is why you didnt saw hifi plan option in your p20)
i think this is why my p20 is jaming when its playing music.
i didnt notice that hq =mp3
i think that they should have mention the android limitation in the plan page in advance
this is the only reason that i took it. in 2019 its funny that android cant do it direct
i should downgrade my plan
thanks mate
No worries.
I agree it's daft that they have limited their market for their hifi subscription by making it available through a select number of products. It does seem a pretty half-hearted attempt to compete with tidals flac streaming.
But allegedly it's coming......
