Hi,
i have a question about Sony’s media applications. Is there a way to get those apps working on Z1 outside of supporting countries?
Im talking about Music Unlimited, PlayMemories and Play Unlimited.
Maybe register via proxy then somehow instaling on mobile?
thx..
If the question is already asked on z1 thread i apologize

You could probably do it via Orbot. I don't think the performance will be that amazing though, plus every time you want to use the service Orbot must be running. Getting the APK's shouldn't be such a pain, you can probably extract them from the UK roms or grab them from the Xperia Z or something. You have to decide whether it's worth all the hassle though.

Hi
i was wondering since tmobile mda have a camera and a wi fi connection
can i do live video streaming over the internet.
please fellows i think if we can make this work it will be grt
do help me on this topic and need more and more feedback to inspire the gr8 people do something about it
Thanks
This worked for me. It is also stated on there web site that our device is supported. Great for filming weddings or birthday parties allowing family and friends around the world to watch live.
http://www.comvu.com
Also just for kicks. Try this if you wanna watch tv from anywhere. 8)
http://www.orb.com
ps. the current version of ORB as of today has a nasty bug that constantly reads you hard drive and causes video to chop. get the 1.01.0639 version dated Feb 23. It works better. Or download a newer version it it exist. On your device when loged into your ORB page I suggest going to "Set Speed" link at bottom and setting Device Web Speed to 60k and checking the Remember speed box. This will prevent rebuffering issues.(at least on my US T-Mobile network)
thanks for your reply i have used the comvu and orb but i was wondering if there is something else that can be used to do the live streaming see i dont want to be dependent on a a service provider i was like what if i host my own live video streaming server and the if there is a software that i can use to stream the video over the internet
but i guess this is still too far away
ya. dont know anything that does that. I know that Microsoft Portrait will stream. But to only one user. You cant do multicast without a server.
hey where can i find this microsoft potrait and yeah i can make my self a server so that i can multicast to few people around my family all over the globe that will be cool

Windows Media Encoder 9
WME9 is free and allows encoding / streaming. Maybe you can broadcast using one of those other tools to a server running WME9 and use it for other clients. I'm not familiar with Microsoft Portrait, so I'm not sure if that's capable.

I really hate to not contribute in a thread, but could you please start using punctuation in your posts? It's really difficult to read what you're saying with any punctuation. And no, paragraphing is not considered punctuation.
Official Spotify app is now live on the android market, you need a premium account to use it, which seems pretty reasonable to me.

It's also live on the Apple App Store, so I guess a nod to Spotify for launching both at the same time.
Not worth the £10 a month yet, really buggy when changing screen orientation on the G1.
Can someone post an APK? I'm in the US right now and its not in the market here...

The apk will not do you much good since you need a spotify account and accounts are not allowed in the US either
10 a month? Does this work with your media on the network or from the net? I jsut want to stream or load up tunes from my network not the internet.

It now does both.
You can sync playlists from online and you can now add in all your local files to the desktop client as well. You can only sync these files over wifi (for obvious reasons) but it works rather well.
The RealPlayer Cloud app is US only and I was hoping to use it (as i live outside US). Does the local video casting work outside US? Please, anyone in US, can leech an APK and post here.

Try this: http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
You can get the app URL using Google search.
As a tip, you can create a US based google account and switch to same whenever you want to install US specific apps.

Could you tell me what orbit is? I live in Belgium. I could install the app but when creating an account it complains about my region

Sorry that should have read Orbot (my spell checker changed it). Its basically an app that allows you to connect to a proxy. In order to use it download it run it go into settings and change the last exit node and enter:
{us}
This tricks the real player install into thinking you're in the US and should allow you to get it working. But to be honest as soon as I discovered Avia I gave up on real player. Real player at the time was only allowing you to cast stuff for a limited period of time, not sure if this is still the case? Oh and I think Orbot is pretty useless unless your rooted.
Well I rooted. I like AVIA, but it does not show subtitles

Thanks man I was able to use it now. However it seems subtitles are not possible either :s.
Are you able to use a player with chromecast that plays local video's and is able to display subtitles?
As for plex. It can't use my device as a server I think... (so playing local files on my phone)

I suppose it is not as convenient, but you can always download the content from your pc to cast it directly from your phone with Plex. But it is a different solution, i have all of my content stored on my pc, so i use my phone only as a remote. Hope Avia adds the function to play subtitles.

us/canada you mean..
for once we had an app in a timely fashion up here..
I'm looking for a video player/server app for WP8 that will allow me to play locally stored files (MP4) from my phone (an HTC 8X) onto a DLNA-capable television. So far I've not found anything that seems to be able to do this, although I thought it would be quite simple (my Nexus 7 has at least half a dozen players that can do it).
Closest I've found was Nokia Play To (set up after spoofing the store into thinking my 8X was a Nokia 925). That app runs OK, but fails to find any DLNA devices, even when connected directly to their hotspot. Also found MyMediaHub, which works fine as a DLNA controller (playing to the renderer from an external DLNA server) but can't play local files. Moliplayer can act as a local renderer (to play files from an external server on the phone via DLNA), but what I want is kinda the other way around, to play from the phone rather than to it.
Are there any players out there which can fulfil this role which will work with the 8X, or am I limited to filling my tablet up with films rather than using my phone for the job (which I'd prefer as they are on there anyway for watching whilst travelling).
The WP8.1 update is supposed to have this ability baked into the OS. Just hold out a few more days, ok a week..

It's a corporate phone, so I may have to wait slightly longer than that, knowing our IT crowd. But it's good news anyway, thanks for the heads-up. I'll keep a check on what does get released with the update, with fingers crossed
There's also Share Box from Samsung (DLNA client that can stream images/videos/music over WiFi). May require proxy trick. Not tried on a non-Samsung phone.

This one also doesn't work on HTC (I've already tried, app failed with "Media service not started" message). Looks like you're out of luck (say "thanks" to HTC for the "great support" and never buy HTC's junkphones again )
P.S. Theoretically, there is no "rocket science" in DLNA server functionality; the only showstopper I see now is the API limitations to access local videos. Hope, with WP8.1 update, some third-party DLNA servers will hit the store...

The OP needs a DLNA server, not a player (there are few DLNA players available at the store).

Not for Windows Phone 8, that is only for WP7.X: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/connected-media/d154a04b-d3ad-47dd-bfc9-a1022e409af6

As I mentioned in my first post - I tried that via a store-spoof to make it think my 8X was a Nokia 925 and serve me Nokia apps for install. The app installs and runs, but it can't find the DLNA renderer, even when connected directly to it. The webpage that details the spoof (using Fiddler2 on a PC as a proxy man-in-the-middle for the set-up process) also reported the same, that Play To installs and runs but can't detect DLNA devices.
As noted, I can find options for DLNA controllers (e.g. MyMediaHub) and DLNA players (e.g. Moliplayer), but what I'm not finding for WP8.0 is a DLNA server app that can see locally stored files. With luck 8.1 could fix this by baking it into the OS, so I will wait patiently until it filters down through our IT boys and their testing.
Hi Guys.
I am quite new to the XDA website, and i have searched high and low for a thread with a solution to what I am looking for.
I I am currently using a Galaxy S4, and I have installed versions of the Walkman App dating back to April/May 2014 that had Music Unlimited integration built in. But because the app was outdated, it would refer me to Update Centre to update the app before I could successfully sign in and use the Music Unlimited Integration. Otherwise the app was working fine.
I have searched the internet high and low for a newer version with working Music Unlimited but i cannot find it anywhere. Everything seems to be the music player itself rather than the Music Unlimited functionality. Has anyone got any suggestions?
Again, this needs to be latest version of the app on either respective Xperia Z phone (i dont really have a preference)
I am currently Un-rooted and on standard Kitkat build for the S4.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
