[Q] Galaxy tab 7 inch used as a tv screen - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there a chance to conect a reciver or play station to the galaxy tab and use it as a tv,.
i have the media cable but it is only audio video out (to display my tab on the tv screen) but i am looking to use it as a TV in and play PS on my tab screen or conect it to satallite reciver and watch or record any media.

AllShare function playback Galaxy TAB contents on a 3D LED TV

2 days ago, I've successfully tested the Galaxy TAB AllShare function connecting to
my new Samsung 46" 3D LED TV (UA46C7000). Using the free given USB Wi-Fi dongle
(and a free HDMI v1.4 cable too) that come with my new 3D Blu-Ray Player (BD6900),
plugged it into the TV and connecting to my home Wi-Fi router access was a breeze.
After key-in the Wi-fi passcode using the on-screen keyboard of the 3D LED TV and
launch the AllShare function on the TV and Galaxy TAB, the setup is all done within
a minute or 2. During the AllShare connection, I can launch either from the 3D LED TV
or Galaxy TAB to playback those MP4, MP3 or pictures files that stored in my Galaxy TAB.
Before this great thing happening, I was thinking of buying into Galaxy TAB Multimedia
Dock Station, a HDMI v1.3 Type C and an audio cables for doing the same job I wanted.
Now I does not require them anymore. I'm contented and a very happy man now.
Tks for sharing! But this cool feature is just only for samsung products! You still need multimedia dock, tvout cable for other brand name ones which not support DLNA!
I have the same TV and Bluray Player and HTTYD bundle. And I got the Galaxy TAB Multimedia Dock Station. I have not tried the HDMI out. I don't really need do that!
btw, just wondering how much it's cost for your TV bundle in S'pore?

Of course it won't work with systems that don't support DLNA, but that's pretty obvious! I don't have a Samsung TV, but I do use DLNA to stream from/to my Tab. I also have the multimedia dock and TV out cable for those situations where I can't stream.

Dave

Nowaday there's a lot of DLNA certified devices, including Motorola, Nokia, SE, LG and so on...
You can check out DLNA sites,

How do you know I having a Ferrari? Are you Pete or my some other friends?
Fyi, currently awaiting for my new 458 delivery while still hanging around with my outgoing 430.
Btw folks, the best conection for playing back Galaxy TAB video, picture and music files was,
GT with it USB cable on Mass Storage connection + TV with USB port & media play function.
The benefits from this conection was,
1. Single cable connection.
2. Only need connect GT to TV USB port, so less works & movements retriction between TV, couch/bed, power socket.
3. TV not only playback GT files but also provide power charging to GT.
After playback 1 hour of Full HD video, my GT battery power now up to 71% from initial around 50%+ (can't remeber the exact number).
4. Able to move around GT directory & playback files using one TV remote control.
That's saving troubles of using 2 devices, GT screen + TV remote.
For those of us who dont have a tv that supports dlna (why do you need a 3d tv dont see the point myself) the tabs allshare also works to a ps3. Open allshare and select my device as a source, then go to the ps3 and go to music or video and select the tab. Remember they must be on the same network (should work if ps3 is on ethonet but havent tried it but it works on wifi for me) i have a netgear dg834g v3

I've knew there's only limited 3D BD contents before buying into 3D TV.
But that doesn't stopping me from getting the 3D LED TV as I'm buying it to replace my 6~7 years old 40" HD LCD,
and it's also for my Chinese New year celebration. Also the price between a FHD LED TV with 3D FHD LED TV
was just a few hundreds different. So that's why I straight up my purchase. (not all the way of course)
Btw, all Samsung 3D TV can convert any 2D content to 3D.
Be it DVD, TV broadcast or web streaming video. That's another plus for buying it.
Im getting a UN55C8000 with the same blueray you have. Its great to see you had great results. Had read bad reviews about the networking between samsung products.

I bought a 3D LED TV several months ago and the picture on it is jaw-dropping. Truly the best TV I have ever owned. The 3D is just extra....however, we do own a couple of 3D movies.

That's another great model from Samsung.
I'm might getting the same thing to replace my living hall 14 years old 51" Panasonic projection tv.
Btw, I'm great to know my sharing benefitted & gave positive side of view to you.
I seriously hope it continue to inspire people who intended to own similar setup.

I agree, 3D is just extra function for most of time. 95% of time we'll be watching 2D tv/video contents,
and that's where buying into 3D LED TV a better choice when compare to 3D Plasma or LCD.
Someone can tell me if when playing games or films with AllShare (GT + TV Samsung) there's any lag or no?

3D TV != DLNA
DLNA is actually a media sharing technology that works with most Smart TVs, most game consoles, many portable devices and any computer with a few bits of software. For example, I have Coherence and Serviio installed on my Linux machine and Windows Media Player on my Windows machine and I can play media to and from the Tab.
The method you mention actually uses DLNA, since the PS3 is capable of reading in DLNA streams (thats all its actually doing).

Also, Alite, I don't think what you're trying to do is actually possible. DLNA can be used to stream movies, music and pictures to another device, like the TV you mention, but it cannot simply mirror the display of your Tab on your TV and you can't therefore play games on the TV through DLNA. It could be done with HDMI (possibly) but not wirelessly with DLNA. There is no way (that I know of) to get wireless display mirroring with a Galaxy Tab.
And as a last aside, I've got a 3D Samsung and it's pretty incredible. 3D content (games, movies, upscaled TV) all looks incredible and the newest sets particularly are really great TV's. But it's not for everyone, certainly.

[q] dnla via smart tv

Hi i have a samsung series 5 smart tv. I want to stream videos from my htc one via my samsung tv. I think i will will have to download an app on my tv for it to work any ideas guys?
if your TV is DLNA ready then all you need to do is connect the tv and the phone to the same network and you can start streaming video and audio files from your phone.

I to have a "smart tv" (SONY) and have been able to stream music and video with all my other phones but this HTC One... it can't find my TV or Boxee. Have tried to tick the option in advanced wifi settings DLNA auto IP but it does not matter...
Pitty on this nice phone.
I have Samsung smart LED TV and HTC One doesnt work with DLNA.
When I select TV from gallery to mirroring, it gives 500 or 701 errors..
Galaxy note 2, S3 and S4 worked fine with mirroring..

Anyone tried recording from MIDI keyboard? (via MIDI USB adapter)

I'd like to record MIDI from my Yamaha DX27 keyboard/M-Audio Midisport 2x2 on my Tab S2 9.7 4G. Does anyone have any experience of doing this? I read in another thread that an app called Soundcamp was available, which appeared to do this, but the Play Store is not showing it as being compatible with my device.
Does anyone know of an app that will do this well on the Tab S2?
Audio evolution has USB MIDI recording. The app is 8 and another 5 in app purchase for the USB driver addon.

Soundcamp is in the Galaxy Apps store.

It seems like I have a hardware issue. My M-Audio Midisport 2x2 doesn't work when connected to the Samsung tablet. It's fine when connected to a PC. Probably needs more power than the tablet can provide :0(
