I had quick question, is the uTorrent app for Android encrypted? I have gotten 2 dmca Complaints because I have downloaded movies from popcorn time and on PC uTorrent. I have downloaded lots movies on uTorrent app on Android I haven't got one yet. But when I download movies on PC from uTorrent my ISP founds out and Popcorn time. Why is that.

Hello. I fount, that I can serve the media content from android phone through Twonky server to my PC. But I want retrograde app - the android DNLA media CLIENT - to play the streamed video or audio on my Android phone - from my PC media library.
Any idea?
Thanx!!!

I don't know much about Android...
...but I'm interested in getting an android phone, probably the HTC Desire.
Can't you just link your phone into your home network, like I've done with my WM6.5 phone? That way, you can just browse to the relevant media folder on your network from your phone and play the file via the relevant app on your phone. I do that for video and music on my WM phone.
Or does Android not allow you to link into a PC network?
Linking to a PC network over SMB/CIFS is not straightforward AFAIK:
You can browse and copy files with applications such as ES File Explorer, but that is not integrated into the file system for all applications. And You can use xyflash to stream from the network using certain protocols such as http and ftp, but not in a very user friendly way.
I'd love to see something being able to browse and stream using DNLA/UPNP or mount a SMB path in the android file system, but I haven't seen it yet. Though the latter may be possible if you device is rooted, I haven't checked that out...
Are you looking for something like AndroMote, or to go the other way around?

Just saw this post; I've been using this for a while (originally just to test it) it works well with my Buffalo Linkstation's Media server.
As I can see, there is no news about video dnla app client - only audio is possible now :/

Not necessarily.... If you have a UPnP server on your PC (TVersity, Playon, etc...) you can use PlugPlayer (plugplayer . com) as your client...
I've spent some time recently to look for a UPnP stack solution for android, so perhaps my exploration can be of use.
I found out that EyeconTroller is a nice media renderer. I only tested audio but EyeconTroller is supposed to handle videos as well.
I've tested it with two android devices: the first one runs iMediashare (media server), the second one runs EML UPnP-AV Controlpoint to act as a remote controller, and EyeconTroller runs on both devices. Using EML I was able to stream from iMediashare to EyeconTroller on both devices.
Next step is to stream from my linux box, but i don't expect any issue here (granted it is on the same subnet, which it is not for now), considering that EML discovered the iMediashare and all EyeconTroller instances without problem.
Note that for now EyeconTroller is free but might not always be (see eyecontec site).
I have a lcd tv samsung C550, they have dlna with name 'allshare', they can display music, photos and messages, but I think this only work with galaxy S, would be nice if any android phone can send text message to tv.
skifta is a great dlna client
i search for a audio only dlna client, they are all audio and video and i just want a small case to plug to my audio mixer.. without any drive i wan't to stream music directly from my phone as i can do on my tv with any NAS and skifta.
I've just read following article:
http://www.intomobile.com/2010/05/20/android-to-get-ota-app-installation-streaming-music.html
It was posted before Froyo got released... it states that Froyo will have a option to stream your own music library?
Is that already available?
I now have an unlimited data option and want to be able to stream my music from home... any apps already doing this?
Thanks
Subsonic can do it, and i have heard of others, like Orb. I've never tried any of the others. Subsonic runs on your PC (windows/linux/mac) and then there is a client app for your device (android/iphone/pc). You can also access the music via the web interface.
For the client apps, like the android app, you need to donate to the subsonic open source project to get an unlimited streaming license, but I think it was well worth the couple bucks. If you donate, you also get a <foo>.subsonic.org domain so you can easily access your music. I use it daily. My only grip about it is that it caches the music on the SD card and if you set up a large playlist, it prefetches all the music and it doesn't automatically clean up after itself, which can fill up the SD card a bit.

Great... thanks! Will try it out.
For streaming my library, I run a linux server with Ampache (sorry, I'm new and can't post a link). Then for my android Evo 4g, I use the android clients like Lullaby or Amdroid (both in the Market).
Pretty slick solution I think.
...of course you can use a windows box to host the Ampache site. Ampache requires a web server, MySQL, and PHP.
Homepipe
Look for an app called Homepipe. It will stream music as well as giving you access to files/directories on your home PC. It uses an app on your PC for connecting. Pretty slick but be careful of bandwidth.

Hi. New to XDA! Lurking for some time, but registered to tell you this. Crawled through all other MediaLink posts, but none were relevant, or had any answers/tips for further exploration. Well. This also has nothing to do with any phones, for now. Only htc media link hd, a pc, and a tv.
I'm really starting to see the potential of the Media Link HD.
First and foremost, it allows HTC One devices, and other phones, as well, (gsIII, pureview 808, google it to connect to the tv with a simple gesture to mirror or stream content.
What I am starting to discover is, it is possible to connect your PC to the tv with the Media Link as well. (My TV has no internet connection or DLNA natively, so the Media Link is all i have to help me share to my TV.) Pictures, videos and music can ie. be sent to the tv via Windows' "Play To"-function, where Windows Media Player uses the device to stream content. So the Media Link works as a generic DLNA DMR, Digital Media Receiver (i think). Try it out!
I was just wondering if you guys have had other experiences, or knew any other programs that can take advantage of the Media Link, preferrably using a browser to stream online web content, or maybe stream the whole desktop? I'm not buying another receiver or the like, now that I have the Media Link.
I've tried Twonky, and it works with MLHD! - but they have a certain 'media library' you can choose from, not use it everywhere on the web. They have an extension for IE that will let you share to your tv. They had a firefox extension, but sadly that doesn't work anymore. Imma try out XBMC and Serviio (Tried a bunch of other programs, Tversity, tvmobili, plex, mezzmo, mediatomb, universal media server, couldn't get it to work), but as i try stuff out I can update this thread with more results if you want.
Let me know what you guys have found out! And just ask me if i have missed something, and you don't understand anything of what i say..
regards from Denmark
Alright, so after having tried about 20+ programs, I've found something that works well so far!
J.River Media center works as a digital media controller right now on the computer - it sees the Media Link HD and lists it. Now I have to figure out the program, because it's filled with features, and it's very overwhelming. Anyway, I'm watching Youtube videos from the web on Windows, through JRiver, then through Media Link, to the tv - wirelessly! Talk about having a cheap wireless setup
I'll post here again if i find something more simple and easy to use.
But for now, using PlayTo for local files, and JRiver for (some) online content (though it also plays local files) is good enough for me.
As before, feel free to buy in with suggestions if you know anything.
Now, at least i know what DLNA types there are.
DMS - server - hosts content.
DMC - controller - finds content on DMS and sends it to a DMR or a DMP.
DMR - renderer - receives content, but is not able to browse content on DMS (i think)
DMP - player - receives content, and is able to browse the DMS.
So far so good. Again, ask me if anything seems odd here..
Torrents are corrupt whenever I download them, I have tried multiple torrent clients and also the torrents work on the desktop. I have the pages request in desktop mode too but still corrupt when adding to the client.
what the hell

Same issue using a Note 2.
I've downloaded a torrent using Chrome and the preinstalled browser. Then I transfer to my servers torrent folder using eStrong. Deluge is set to auto load torrents but instead renames the torrent as invalid.
I've downloaded the same torrent using Chrome on my PC. Then I use eStrong to copy that file on to my phone and then to the server. This time it works as it should.
Since I used different browsers, it points to the Android download client.
Off to do more research on the issue....
Chrome on my Xoom thinks that the torrent is a URL and tries to open it in a new tab. Looks like it's down to the Android implementation by the manufacturer.

I use ttorrent pro, it also utilizes magnet links, I use chrome on SGS2 and it works just fine for me, I don't internet in the household so I only download on my phone
I use the stock browser to find torrents, and then I have uTorrent to download them. When I click on the torrent download in browser it opens automagically in uTorrent and they always download without issue.
use bittorrent
Hi, I know that I can use the uTorrent remote app to start torrents on my computer from my phone, but I watch all of my movies and tv shows on my tablet. Does anybody know of a way that I could remotely start a torrent download on my tablet using my phone? Thanks!!
ASUS tf700 with Cyanogenmod 11
Samsung Galaxy S4 with Google Play Edition ROM
Download utorrent from Google play and any task sheduler from Goole play.
The other way is TeamView.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
any installable torrent app for tf700
If there's any torrent UI app/agent that runs on android tab just like on PC then maybe..
thanks
Hmm interesting, thanks for the tips I will check these out!
ok so I can use a task scheduler to automatically start uTorrent, and I'm assuming I could get it to open torrent files inside a specific folder, so that it could check that folder periodically and start any torrent file that's in there, but how would I activate that from my phone? like how would I get a torrent file onto my tablet from my phone? could I download a torrent to my dropbox or something, and then have the task scheduler open Utorrent and start whatever torrent is in the Dropbox folder?
Other than that I'm not sure how I could get that to work. I haven't used a task scheduler before. Glad you told me about it though.
