Has anyone been able to use the Media Server function to stream content to OSX?
I downloaded MediaCloudMac but it doesn't seem to see my XZ.
Anyone had any luck with this? I'd like to be able to stream from the phone to a Mac.

Hi,
1) After weeks of looking for an app that is similar to AirVideo (Ipad), I came across Emit. However, I am able to hear sound but not picture. I've tried with avi,mp4 and mkv. All with same result. Has anyone have the same experience and know how to fix? My DS 7 still has OS 2.2.2 but rooted.
2) Does anyone know any similar app that allow to stream video from PC, but not playing on PC as the same time lik Emit or AirVieo(Ipad).
Thanks

Plex media server works. Thank you navycow.
Can anyone tell me the best way to view files,video(movies),pics,music over y wifi network. I've tried various apps like upnp along with mobo player and codec add on but it only plays certain files most of my media is not accesable.
I used to use a laptop and watch everything perfectly from my pc downstairs using the windows library share if only was as easy with my xoom. when i try to acces the library the xoom see's the library but only short video content of all my video camera clips nothing is organized as is on my pc. Please help as there doesnt seem to be any info anywhere, Thanks.
I used mobo and then mx player. I tried BS player and for me it works a lot better. My pics and music are in picasa and Google music.

Install subsonic on your desktop, then the subsonic client on your Xoom. Best streaming solution I've found.

This is the correct answer. I highly recommend it.
I use zumocast. Works great for me. For local files, Rockplayer lite plays everything I throw at it. There is also a pre-Alpha release of VLC for Android out that I use sometimes.
Could you please tell me if it is possible to stream music and movies from your shared folders on your pc and if so what is the easiest and best way?
cheers guys

If your using windows 7 you can set it to share media also. I'm not looking at it now but I think somewhere in the top left corner of the stock windows media player there is an option to allow streaming.

You can share media and documents from Windows on the same LAN.

"Could not access the player device"
Non of the media picture, music or video, i am not able to throw.
You have to open windows media player click on streamimg allow the player to be remotely controlled

This piece of technology is a huge hit and miss, works when it wants under it's own terms. Wasn't working for me before but it is now to my laptop, but not my tv, and only with video

DLNA Client in Movies App not playing most Videos, "unsupported file format"
Hi,
I didn't find a lot on this by just searching, but I'm sure I'm not the only one having this "problem". I'm talking about the stock movies app and its DLNA Client.
I'm running serviio as media server and with almost every video I try to open from the movies app, I get the error message "unsupported file format" (except some mp4 videos) . When stored locally on the device, all of them play without problems using VLC. And even without it, shouldn't my DLNA server transcode the video? I mean my PS3 can't play *.flv natively either, but it can stream the videos from serviio. I've tried using PS3 media server, too, still no luck.
Does anyone have experience with this? Is there some way to configure a media server in a way that the stock DLNA Client can stream all those formats? I know about the other DLNA clients for android, I was just wondering if it's somehow possible with the stock app.
Thanks in advance.

I guess not enough people care about this or they use other clients. I just hope the Upnp improvements in the new update fix this
