[Q] TV play list

Is there any app gives a full TV programs play list along with play times for a given station and notification?

TV Show Favs, the best app out there for tv shows and play times. Also alerts you when the show is on tv.

outside the US and its useless, hope someone makes a version for other countries as well or the option to tell the program what country you are in, so it grabs the information for that country

TV Guide Mobile and TV Listings for Android both do this as well, although the UI for TV Guide Mobile is not the best and you need the pro version of TV Listings to get all of the features. Both apps also limited to the US, though.

It's a good thing that I live in the US. LOL. Seriously, I think the dev said he'll add support soon. It's still a beta right?

[Q] screen mirroring problems?

Hi all hope someone can help me with my problem. I have recently purchased a note 12.2 and I'm having some problems with screen mirroring. I also have a note 3 phone and wife has a s4 but neither of these have this problem. At first it wouldn't mirror at all! I looked around on the Internet and found some advice to uninstall all share cast dingle update. I did this and it allowed my Samsung 2013 smart tv to mirror the tablet. But i like to use a app called showbox, and on my phone whilst streaming a film on showbox i can press the icon in the top left of the screen to mirror the film i am watching. I would like to do this for two reasons.
1 its easier and quicker
2 whilst in screen mirror mode and not sending the film through pressing the icon on the top left of the screen. I can only access two screen modes. Standard and entertain. Where as using the other method i can access all screen modes including movie mode which is what i have calibrated to use.
How this is clear and any help would be appreciated.

If you are rooted, you can edit /system/build.prop file with any root file manager/text editor and add a line at the bootom
wlan.wfd.hdcp=disable
I don't know how Showbox will behave but it does fix screen mirroring problems.
Only for root.

If I understand correctly you seem to have a DLNA discovery problem rather than a Screen Mirroring problem (or maybe both)
Every now and then I also have problems with the Samsung video app discovering my TV. Some times it is a problem of the router as I and others have found out. In my router I have to disable an option called "Enable UPNP on the Network" and the UPNP connectivity on my home WiFi network works correctly.
I suggest you try the following:
Check your router, if there is a UPNP/DLNA option disable it.
Check if you can share videos with the built in DLNA server (it's in Settings at the bottom of the first tab)
Check a free app call "Pixel Media Server" on Google Play, it is reliable, I use it often with my Samsung 2013 Smart TV, and it also streams subtitles to TV without transcoding.

[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!

I have problem to send video and photo 0n my smart tv samsung with the samsung apps
But i tryed imediashare on playstore and it works perfect with this app

Yes, that is what I use in some apps because the other icon doesn't appear.

on my vidoes i dont have option to send to my xbox one however my pictures work fine from gallery

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.

[Q] how to see Popcorn on TV?

hi,
I use popcorn with the AM7 and I would like to watch it on the TV screen. Do you know how it could be transformed? I don't think chromecast will work (unless someone will assure - popcorn is not gallery...)
1. software option?
2. if not - what cable do we need?
Thx

I'm using it with chromecast, works great!
Popcorn and netflix works great and you can even turn of mt7 display to safe battery.
For kodi you have to keep it on (in screen mirroring modus)

Great news!
Do you use the original Chromecast hardware, or an identical Chinese stick is enough?
Does the Chromecast enable the mirroring icon on the cell screen to choose?
Does it real 1080p on screen without loosing quality?
Also sound?
Thx

Using the Chromecast as well. No problems, it works on Popcorn Time, Netflix, YouTube and you can even show off your own movies and pictures through the google photo app (need to sync them though, I remember)!

Yes in chromecast enabled apps i get the chromecast icon, i have a genuine chromecast and video & audio is good. No stuttering etc (but that can also depend on your router)

HUAWEI MATE 9 versus 55" Philips 55PUS7181 mirrorshare problem

Hello everybody,
I have bought new MATE 9 and i have discovered problem to connect it to my TV Philips 55PUS7181 via mirrorshare.
Both devices are connected to the same wi-fi, also googlecast function with youtube is working, but I cant connect it together via mirrorshare, that I can see mobile desktop on the TV.
It started to look for aviable devices, but my TV is not visible there. I have also tried to install some aplication from Google store for desktop sharing and there it is working, but connection is not stabil, for example video playing ist clicking.
I tried to ask Philips and Huawei customer service, but without answer.
Im really angry because I bought a phone for 700 Eur and i cant use it for sharing !
Has somebody the similar problem or can somebody help me ?
thanks a lot.

What exactly are you trying to Mirror? Videos to play from your phone or watch movies? Or are you trying to just show your screen to show pictures, etc? If it's videos, download Bubble UPnP. It works very well for casting. Click on the left pull down arrow where it shows Local Renderer and select your Phillips TV as default. Then try playing a video to cast.

I have same problem with Sony TV. 4k video have problem. Pictures show only black screen. Mirror screen when working not show in horizontal orientation. On my another phone Nubia Z11 works everything. Mate 9 very bad experience.

Yes it is Android smart TV Philips 55PUS7181.

Have the same problem with Sony Android Tv, using MirrorShare option from taskbar

Even if your Android TV says there are no updates available try opening the PlayStore and searching for 'Google Cast Receiver'. I did and sure enough there was an updated version.
This might be totally unrelated to your problem but it did fix some issues I was having casting from my Mate 9 to a brand new Sony Android TV.

Mate 9 definitely works with Chromecast protocol so if TV works with Android TV it should work

I have the same issue with a Philips 55PUS6561/12 TV and with a Huawei P9 phone. Youtube's Cast for example works perfectly fine, but the phone's Mirrorshare function cannot find my TV. Has anyone found a solution to this?
