ok so i have used remote desktops apps and everything but im looking for an app that just shows different drives on your home pc and able to open them up and play on your pc...
so it would kinda look like astro file manager but you can look though you pc
the closes that i have got was Gmote but they open it in there own player..
i wanna open and play it thought vlc
would be better to use wifi but bluetooth is ok 2
anyone come across a app like this???
Estrongs file explorer for both WiFi and BT.
Use search before using "new post", it helps.
Is there a way to open the files such as a .avi file and make it play on the computer from the mobile.. I Tired with that app but didnt work

By far the slickest way of controlling media on your pc or xbox1 or Linux box...
Install XBMC
Get XBMC remote from Google Code
It's superb.

DLNA will only allow me to stream video/music, and what if I want to transfer all types of files?...
Thanks in advance.
Astro file manager + SMB extension (which is free)
You can find both in the market.
With the SMB extension you can access fileshares on your windows pc.
Hi,
You can use also ESFile Explorer to do that
i use ftp... look into andro ftp works great

Droid Life has posted the .apk for the upcoming Honeycomb (Android 3.0) Music player. I have tested it on the G-Tablet (running TNT Lite 3.12) and on my Droid 2 and it works great. Please keep in mind that not all features are working yet...it is still a work in progress.
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/27/download-honeycomb-music-player-from-google-io/
yeah i saw this too on droid-life since i look at that site every couple mins as i do with this site, been watching that site for years. that music app does look like its going to be some great stuff once its completed.
Can anyone be kind enough to host the file somewhere else, I've trie to download the .apk on my tablet and pc and the file dosnt download correctly
TIA
Downloads ok on my advent Vega.

Yeah, I had problems downloading from my Droid 2 as well... I had to connect to the PC as Mass Storage and download it that way instead.

I bet the streamed music has to do with Googles purchase of simplified media. I used it back in my iPhone days and it allowed me to stream my whole iTunes library to other computes or my phone.
Thanks for sharing.
Have you guys looked at Audiogalaxy? There was a post today about it. You download a free app from the market, setup a little tiny program on your pc. Tell the pc program where your music is and stream away. I am using it and it works great... I just used my Facebook login with it and it worked..

With this audiogalaxy is it possible to have music on my droid and send it to the gtab? and like remote control the music PLAYING on the gtab from the droid? cant seem to get any program to work the way i need/want it to. tried twonky but it wont recognize the gtab as a player when using the droid app on the droid. main goal is to be able to pretty much control music on the gtab while its plugged into speakers from across the room or anywhere in the house.
hy guys
i don't know if is better write this problem here or in other section; i have posted here because i think that the dlna program on galaxy s is inside the rom of the phone and is not a 3th parts porgram that i can install later
in any case, i try to explane my problem and i hope to find any solution with you.
i don't understand why, i f i try to play some video files stored on my hard disk with this dlna service, with my galaxy, i can't reproduce them; i can find it, i can surf on my directory (i use the orb media as a server) but when i choose one file, i see "file not supported"..the strange is that..i see the same advise also if i try to reproduce a video files that before was in my phone.....
i don't understand why i have this problem; my idea, is use the tv out function of my galaxy to reproduce some video on my pc on my tv in bedroom, as a films or other without, all the times, disconnect my hard drive, connect it to the pc, load the file and remake the same operation...if one time i want to play a simple film or other materials that i have on my pc, why can't do that?
i'm waiting, if is possible, some solution or idea
merry Christmas and happy new year for all!
sam
i am not sure but i think i read somwhere that dlna only works with windows media sharing
if you are using something like twonky or tversity it doesn't work
it is just a bad app
Ok.. Now i try to make the same with orb program and i can see the video correctly! I think that is as your idea a strange setting of this program., it will work only with Samsung tv..
Do you know if i can try for this operation some other programs?
Thanks for your reply!

I had the same problem,but in i a slightly different combination.
My PC acts as a DLNA server. Only the program named "Samsung PC share manager" solved the problem. You can install it on PC and share your video files via DLNA.

I have just try this software but not work in any case..always the same advice.. I can surf on my files but when i open one my video files i read file format not supported..
Ok i have just pay to use a complete version of orb.. But i'm very angry because i can not use a function of my expensive smartphone and i must buy a expensive extra software

Hi, One reason i like using Windows Mobile phones is that it can access my folders shared on my network, and as such, I can access pictures and my video files or divx videos to play remotely.
Is there a way on my streak to do the same thing? Now that I have my dock. I would love a way to access my movies and so and play them remotely. Anyone have a idea on how android devices could do this? Thanks.

Thanks. The app in question to use now is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756158 The CIFS Manager. This should hopefully do the trick. =D Cause who wants to pay for a "server app" on your PC.. when youd think it can just read it Natively. Thats why I have a windows ppc. Tho the app I got there works.. but it sucks cause none of the menu UI comes up right... tho still managed it.
lou0611 I dont wanna stream from a server or convert the files, I could do that but I rather just open my network folders, pick my file and play
Hello all.
Does anyone know of a way to move the songs that have been purchased from google music onto your sd card? This would enable me to use a different music apk to play and listen to my music.
I know it has the option to make the selections available offline. However, it would be nice to know where those files are kept. Thanks in advance.
better put some water on that ****!
You can download it on your computer then put it on your phone, or use the "avalaible offline" option then you can find the mp3 files on /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music.
The first option is easier.
