Anybody use their gtablet with their Tivo?
I am thinking about getting the remote, but is there anything else out there?
Remote works fine

I use a Slingbox Classic and the Slingplayer android app to view and control my Tivo HD & TiVo S3 on the GTab. Works really well.
As a bonus I am able to use the Tivo Netflix app to stream Netflix content to my tablet with the same setup.

Is there a way to beam or remotely send music or YouTube videos to the gtab with my Droid? Want to use gtab as a media device and change songs with my Droid as if it was a remote tried a few apps but none of them do what I'm looking to do.
Object is to not have to touch gtab to change songs.
Thanks,
Joe

Yeah tried twonky but couldnt set the GTAB as the "player" when i searched for a player, i was able to set it on the gtab as its own player however not on the droid making the gtab the player.
I recently switched to CM7.1 and would like to have an app that does DLNA media streaming similar to what the stock rom had. Anyone have any suggestions? Any feedback would be most appreciated.

I tried twonky, I like imediashare a bit more, seems to have a decent about of options

I love imediaShare. I have zero complaints. Twonky didn't work as well with my hardware.
Skifta is AMAZING. Very user friendly.

whats the difference between the paid and free imediashare app? can anyone tell me i cant find it
I've also been looking for a good alternative to the stock DLNA since it doesn't work with ps3. Then again, nothing much works on the ps3 since the network is down. anyway, I tried imediashare, but it didn't seem to work either. Is the ps3 DLNA technology just to outdated for the Thunderbolt?

I confirm imediashare works very nice with ps3. I love its feature where you can
1. stream youtube and many many sites directly
2. I like the way you can search for videos on your mobile and see them on ps3
3. I love its inbuit channels,very useful
4. Reliable and always works, no jerks no crashes.
5. plays HD content
6. Youtube quality is extremely good compared to the ps3 browser youtube.
7. Suppprts UPNP features of my ddwrt router.
It does not play my mobile(3gp) videos because none of these software can transcode, and ps3 can't play 3gp directly.

It's driving me nuts. The only thing that stops the the Nexus 7 being nothing more than a toy or glorified ebook for me is the fact I cannot find any form of big screen streaming for it. My 2 year old phone has MHL abilities which is okay but someone must know if there are any plans for the Nexus 7? It seems to be ridiculous to have such a powerful device and not be able to use it on a bigger screen.
I've searched back 10 pages on this subject and found nothing so welcome any fresh perspectives on it.
BubbleUPnP and make a DLNA server, I use it to connect to my TV and Xbox.

+1 to BubbleUPnP...
Though screen mirroring is not possible in BubbleUPnP, you can throw any media from it to your TV or other
DLNA enabled devices...
Luckily, my TV has WiFi dongle and Wi-Fi direct feature...
so, once my device is connected to the TV via WiFi-direct, launch BubbleUPnP and select the TV as renderer, I can
throw any media to the TV...
I'm also hoping and wishing for the screen mirroring...
Hi I will look at BubbleUPnP, I've been using Skifta for the time being which does DNLA quite well.
I use my PS3 as a receiver but it doesn't support many file formats.
It's a real shame the Nexus doesn't at least support MHL.

Except mkv files, right?
With a raspberry pi and tassadar's android transporter rom mirroring is possible with reasonable response times

Both VUDU and Netflix that rely on runtimes such as Silverlight have had problems running on Linux for a while now due to compatibility and other issues. However you can get Netflix to run on Raspberry Pi with pretty decent performance by streaming it through your PC to the Raspberry Pi. For streaming Netflix through your PC I would recommend taking a look at this guide. An alternative to both Netflix and VUDU streaming using XBMC on the Raspberry Pi is the plugin XBMC Flicks.

Keep in mind XBMC is basically just a video FILE player. Its not really a streaming device of any sort. It made to have a library of video files such as DVD rips etc and play them.

Xbmc does support upnp streaming both as a client and a server. I often stream music from foobar to xbmc just because it's easier to make play lists

Playon is up and running on the PC, and I now have netflix, youtube etc all streaming thru the Pi

Can you tell me if this Pi is compatible with the iB Elit 9 inch tablet?

By compatible do you mean you are trying to use that tablet as a monitor for the Raspberry Pi? Does the tablet have hdmi-in capability? What you can do is use the Raspberry Pi and your tablet using a VNC viewer, I would recommend checking out this tutorial on how to use a Raspberry Pi in headless mode with a tablet.
I tried to find a "Most Wanted Apps" for Chromecast and couldn't find any, wouldn't be cool to add one ?
My MWA (Most Wanted Apps) are:
Tune In
Crackle
Thanks !

Here is a list of Apps that are already working on CCast support
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromecast
As for what I would like to see....
1 - I would like to see the XBMC remote programs allow you to cast to Chromecast as a Target. But I think they would have to add transcoding to XBMC to do it well....
2 - Would like to see a good SCREEN CAST app which I think may in the end not require an APP because it will be native to Android.
3 - The Ability to leverage HDMI-CEC capabilities of Chromecast in an App to enable CCast to act as a Remote Control via IP. (But better would be an IR blaster port in the next generation CCast so those without HDMI-CEC setups can use it as well)
4 - Screen Mirroring support for PC outside of Chrome (Not really an App as much as a program for PC)
Twitch, undoubtedly my app I'd use the most.

aVia streams from Dropbox!
I doubt that Dropbox would add casting to it's own app.
Whats funny is I looked at the DIAL homesite and saw the Bittorrent and uTorrent name registered in their database...So soon your Bittorrent client like Azureus or uTorrent may get the capability to stream to CCast.
Check out who has registered names and prefixes for DIAL support.

twitch

blinkbox
BBC iPlayer and LoveFilm.
Although I understand they're both UK and the ChromeCast isn't out in the UK yet...so probably not going to be soon.
I do wonder how many Chromecasts are "live" in the UK though!

Good news for you...BBC has already registered the iPlayer with the DIAL Registry.
TBS has a bunch of names reserved as well one of which seems to be for NBA!
Would love to see VUDU, Amazon as well.
Lets hope google will read this forum.. /)
MX Player
Would love to see a support for MX Player.

Amazon prime , so i can stream movies.
With Avia, every app that uses external player and supported file format automatically gets Chromecast support. Even BubbleUPNP can play through it. I am not even sure if I really need anything else.

Great Article! As great as the Chromecast is....It is the DIAL protocol itself that is what makes the device exciting and the Potential to change the way we do TV in the future.
Just imagine TVs with Two Way DIAL support...Whats on the TV can be sent to a second screen...
Or content from any device that supports DIAL can be sent to any TV.
No worrying about the Manufacturer keeping their smart Apps up to date anymore.
