[Q] Allshare - playing HD movies from PC

Hello,
I would like to be able to play HD 720p movies on my SGN over wifi network, but even though I'm using the "n" standard I only get "signal to weak" message (even standing near my router). Standard 480p videos play ok. The strange thing is that I'm able to play 720p videos from SGN on my computer (even though they are not fluid - but maybe it's codec thing...)
Anyone could recommend something or had similar experience with hd videos?
Thanks

720p and 1080p works fine here. What's your network speed?

are you talking about dlna? ive tried streaming 720p videos to a LG tv. Lags at the start for like 10 sec but then its just normal. works great imo =)

You're talking about playing video on SGN or on TV? My laptop connects to router at 280-300Mb/s and SGN gets max 65Mb/s.

try BSplayer
BSPlayer lite on market

Wow LAN mode on this app really kicks ass! I was able to play 720p and even 1080p over wifi without any problem! And it's so easy to setup too I wonder why Allshare doesn't work this way Thanks for the tip man!

Good morning all,
I have one annoying problem.
Consider following scenario:
I open through LAN Mode or ES File Explorer a .mkv file direct from my home machine. This is done over WiFi Dongle. In other words - i stream video from my local machine over to my Samsung Galaxy Note. What is happening is that after a few minutes the picture and the sound freezes. I have to close BS Player, close ES File Explorer and open the video again. This is happening with all kind of videos. Even 1080p are played butter smooth but it freezes every 4-5-6 minutes.
I've tested with a laptop - no such problem.
Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? I'm using BS Player Lite.

It looks to me that your wifi dongle can't maintain stable signal. Try searching for new drivers for it.

That is the problem with the cache I guess, either ES or BS are not able to handle the huge memory size of 720/1080P. Try MX Player.

YouTube app on my HTC One unable to play back HD content without constantly freezing

Hi guys
I was wondering if any of you have come across this? I can watch a song video/trailer/anything on YouTube on my macbook in HD and it will play perfectly via my wireless connection. However, same video, same wireless connection, and my HTC One YouTube app cannot play it. It just constantly freezes and locks up, making it unplayable. Very annoying considering it has a 1080p screen. It seems that it's just not buffering enough?
If you remove HD it will play perfectly. Does anyone else have this problem?
Any HD content is the same. For instance, as an example, this is the World's End HD trailer:
http://youtu.be/n__1Y-N5tQk
Plays fine on Macbook in 720p, stutters and freezes on my HTC One. What is the point in having a 1080p screen if you can't stream even a trailer over a wireless network?!
Anyone noticed this/got a solution? Other than the frankly bizarre 'watch later' which seems to decide whether to download a clip using some sort of black magic tied in with the moon phases?

Dude you posted in the wrong place.
Works fine for me. What are you running for a ROM. What app version of YouTube?
Tell us more information other than its not working properly.

Just use this and you'll be fine. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715

I'm guessing it's either the phone's connection to the wifi network or (more probable) the YouTube app. Try clearing YouTube app data first and see if it works then. If not try uninstalling the app or uninstalling updates and then download it again. Don't have this issue myself so I'm taking random stabs in the dark for now, but this usually works for most apps.

Chromecast subtitles out of Sync

I really like Chromecast but there is one problem whit it.
I spent 19.99$ on HD Iron Man 3. So i started to stream it via my network(PlayMovies no VPN).
Movie started in FullHD and its fine no lag but subtitles are 1 to 2 seconds out of sync and its same result if i use TunnelBear. I tryed it out on my N7 LTE and Find 5 and subtitles are fine and are in sync.
So does anyone know whats happening and is there any possible solution?

If you pause then restart the playback do the subtitles get back in sync, or are they permanently off?
Also, is the subtitle appearing before or after the video it should accompany?

I tried that and it's same.

Chromecast black screen in apps

I have recently been unable to get any app to display on my TV. Most of the time I get audio but that's about it. I've tried hulu, YouTube, Google movies, and Google music with no luck. The home screen works fine though which is strange. Is there anyone who has had a similar issue?

I think you need to describe exactly what you are trying to use(Chrome on PC, Android , etc.) and what other apps alone or in combination. After that, I'm sure someone can help you.

Please also tell us the manufacturer and model of your wireless router.

Chromecast Cast Screen Live

http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...elect-devices-running-kitkat-4-4-1-or-higher/
Looks like it's finally live. Not sure if this should go in General or App section.

Does anyone have the Chromecast APK 1.7? can't find it posted anywhere. It's required per the announcement. http://chrome.blogspot.com/2014/07/mirror-your-android-screen-to-tv-with.html

Not needed for our devices. 1.7 i believe is needed for non nexus devices.
I'm on 1.5.5 and it works

That's good. I'm at work, so I assumed every device would need it.

It's very laggy for me ?? Hmm anyone else?

Yup the screen cast is working without app. Once the chromecast is detected on the network the cast screen shows up in the quick settings.
There is little bit lag but even the videos play quite well.
Not sure what I will use it for though.

I'm excited to try it when I get home. I actually tried to check yesterday and it wasn't working. I wanted to cast pictures and allcast was being very slow using Drive. I'm also curious to see how games turn out.

Kept failing to connect for me, gave the phone a restart and couldn't get the button to show up in the quick settings again... Going to bed for now, hopefully I'll have better luck in the morning haha

Honestly, casting photos is what I'm most excited about. AllCast has never worked reliably for me and the Photos app doesn't let you zoom.

Hey can someone try casting sling box or xfinity TV go this is very important to me because I stream all my cable for free on computers and thinking about canceling my ISP and just using T-Mobile.

Here's the link to the new Chromecast APK if native support isn't working. http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...v1-7-screen-casting-integration-apk-download/

It works flawless with xfinity tv go app. Jus fyi

I'll be using it mainly for Xfinity app & emulators on my TV in my bedroom!

The first thing I tested it with was MXPlayer and a video format not supported by Chromecast. It worked flawlessly.

I tried flappy bird (I know) and it worked surprisingly well. Probably not 100% playable as there is an expected delay. However, I think other games that don't require constant input might work well. Video actually does work well for me. Also, I thought it was cool that if you lock the phone when casting it gives the CRT animation on the TV.

My sound doesn't work. Plays sound choppy distorted and very low. When I use normal YouTube with Chromecast not Cast Screen, it plays sound normal. Strange. Anyone else?

I have the same issue when casting screen however I'm running Android l and looking at the chrome cast forums here it looks like it's a bug with Android l or the beta chrome cast app

I was thinking the Walking Dead games would be cool to play with this.
