Is there a way to have my xbox360 connect to my note. I would like to stream movies from phone to xbox360
No problem. Your x box is a dlna compatible device. As long as the file is playable using the stock player, you can stream to the xbox.
I have accidently sent photos to my son's 360 when I first used this phone. Did not know what the icon was in the gallery hit it and the next thing I know my son is yelling at me to quit sending things to him.

Is there a setting or something I need to turn on. Even when I open my photo gallery I don't see the icon to send to xbox360 or tv
Nope, if you are using the stock gallery, the icon is right on top when you open an image. It's the icon next to the 'share with' icon. Make sure your xbox and note are on the same wireless network and that you're not in a game.
Of so that's the problem..I have the xbox hardwired to router
They just need to be on the same network. It doesn't matter if one is hardwired and one is wireless. That is how my Xbox is setup and it works with it.

Both are are the same network. Here is what I try. xbox is on and connected to xbox live I open gallery on phone and I don't see the little icon to let me switch over.
Barnacle wireless tether worked great on my HTC. Try it out for root user's only
Be careful if you plug your phone into the xbox, mine grounded within and right now it is a brick. I tried it with my iPhone about a week ago. I think I plugged it in at the wrong time or something, I read it's an issue with the 360.

Barnacle works great with x box
Go to settings>connections and enable "Nearby devices" to share media over DLNA.
I remembered seeing tis option when I was first playing with my phone. I don't have any DLNA devices, aside from my Note 3, so I don't really no if this will fix your issue.
hope that helps.
Guess my xbox is screwed then. I open settings share with nearby devices and it does not find my box. My xbox is only few months old.

Have you checked the settings in your Xbox? Possible something is turned off in there. Don't no personally as I have never messed with my son's 360.

I just set this up last night and have to say I was really impressed! I now have a complete media control device. If you have XBMC setup on your HTPC or Xbox, you just enable UPnP in XBMC settings, side load Eyecon on the Gtab (if you can't find it in Market), register or login as Guest and fire it up. It will automatically detect your media devices as long as they are able to share media. No need to enter IP addresses and ports, etc. Setup was easy.
The interface is great as it shows you 4 different panes for Search, Results, Play, and Plug (playlists). No need to use the XBMC remote to fight through menus to find your content. Don't get me wrong, I still like the official XBMC remote and will continue to use it for fine tuning, but Eyecon makes playing media easier and more high tech. Check it out.

I couldn't get it to work on PS3. Issues getting UPnP to come up as enabled on the PS3. Anyone else try it?
Ok so when I received my Nexus 7 I had a lot of issues with streaming media on my ISP router. I was pulling my hair out trying to figure this out and thought maybe it was a hardware issue with my device. So what I did was simple. I downloaded Wifi Analyzer app from the Google Play Store. Open up the app and click on Settings. Once you get into the settings you'll see "Channel Settings" option. For 2ghz all of the channels for mine were already checked. Click on the 5 GHZ option if you have it and scroll all the way to the bottom. Make sure the higher mhz channels are checked. Exit out of the app and test to see if media streams better. If not you might have to mess around with the "Scan Interval" settings. Hope this helps it helped me a lot!
What software are you using for streaming?
Not sure what you mean. For movies e.g. transformers I use the stock video app and YouTube and that's about it. Works great now after fixing it this way.

I thought the Nexus 7 was 2.4ghz only?
I believe that available channels setting only affects the channels the Wifi Analyzer app will look at and display in the Channel Rating view of the app.
Interesting, not sure how I fixed my issue I was having before then

yeah, me too (confused). i'm not 100% sure but i'd be mighty surprised if a wifi analyzer app changed the frequencies on which your device was looking for a signal. great app by the way, it has helped me in more than one wifi situation.
i just started combing these forums as i plan on getting a nexus 7 in a few days :-D
Here's one way to help with streaming... gets your own router and don't use those isp owned ones.
This one is great for all needs, even has built in upnp and 2 usb ports for hard drives.

Hey
When I "cast" Plex from my phone or tablet the sound is rubbish. Almost like back in the day when you watched a video on the internet.
But watching Plex via my set top box is fine. Any solutions?

Without some Media Info and info about your setup it will be difficult to answer...
One reason could even be as simple as a dirty connection between the CCast and the HDMI input...
But more likely is that you are streaming in some form of Multichannel that your TV doesn't support or is set incorrectly to deal with it.
CCast should take into account what your TV will accept for audio but on some older TVs this may not work properly.
It could also be the way it is transcoding in Plex for CCast that is the difference because your set top box may not require transcoding.
So many things it could be that it is impossible to solve without a lot more information to draw from.
It's been fine recent weeks. Up until a few days ago. My set top box accesses the same media PC with no issues.

media Box working is like saying I have a problem with my Gas Car but my Diesel Truck works fine...
Two different devices that can be sent media in VERY different ways!
Is it the same Movie that worked weeks ago that doesn't work now?
N5, stock & rooted. Chromecast, 16664 firmware unrootable.
MLB recently added casting support to their mobile app but frankly it's pretty bad for me. Casting from a chrome tab on a PC works "fine", but I can't get more than a few innings when casting from the atbat app before it freezes. Then, in order to restart the stream you have to disconnect/reconnect the cc in the app, not simply reload the stream.
Anyone on a custom ROM tried it? Anyone else seen this, possible fixes?
My CC is on usb power from the TV so it sees fresh boots frequently. I've rebooted after a freeze only to get one batter's worth of feed afterward.
All other casting apps work great, but sadly not my most expensive streaming service.

I'm watching an archived game right now after plugging into a different power source besides the TV so far no freezes. I will try a live game tomorrow. It's possible the USB port on the TV doesn't supply constant enough power or something.

Only when casting from the app though? Google play movies, Hulu, Netflix; all of these services cast from their app without issue. I can also cast a whole game from a PC to the CC just fine.
I'll try an archive game tonight, I imagine that's a bit different than a live stream.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I loaded the same game up as an archive and i'm about to turn it off because it's been playing for over 2.5 hours with no issues. It's only the live streams that have problems.
EDIT/UPDATE: So today, Live streams are worse. Every live stream I click on plays a couple frames then gives error 1. Nice.
My live streams are perfect now that my device is no longer plugged into the TV for power.

Was AFK for a while, gave the mlb team some feedback about it & all is good, confirmed after several live games. They're actively tweaking on their end so GJ mlb. Still plugged into TV and all is fine, that wasn't my issue. Maybe your TV doesn't provide enough power on the usb port?

I have a nexus 5 and use the WiFi tethering to run my Chromecast. I use another android device to operate it, and it works great, but something confused me...
I read somewhere that the device running a tethered network can't communicate with other devices on that network. It's just how android works. And its a bummer.
However I recently saw that I can cast from G+ photos on the device running the tethered network, my nexus. Also the new mirror feature sees Chromecast but won't connect. I was able to mirror pretty well at a friend's house using an actual router so I know this is a working feature.
So my question... Does anyone have an explanation to why my nexus can see my Chromecast from these apps? Netflix doesn't see it and the Chromecast setup app won't run at all when the WiFi is tethering. It would be something pretty incredible if it was some hidden thing we could unlock in those apps...
Eh?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Only the tethering app has access to the tether network...
All the other apps use the normal data connection....
Since they are not connected to the Tethering network they can not see the CCast.
it's possible, instead
