I tried to watch my 1080p videos through my hdtv using the stock gallery app. The reproduction was not fluid at all. Both sound and picture kept stuttering. There wasn't any problem with 720p videos. I know galaxy s4 can send 1080p videos via dlna without problem. If it isn't a snapdragon 600 issue, is there anything can do to watch my videos through my tv? A setting or another app maybe?
Could it be a through put issue in your network?
my One works great with MHL adapter but when i try to use the HTC Media Link i get issues. Its a result of my network set up and how i have my WiFi configured. I need more throughput for my larger files / movies to work properly over WiFi.
Have not tried DLNA yet. But i do have a PS3 so maybe i should attempt to set that up.
Try Skifta app. Works super well thru dlna 4me ?
Htc One the One ?

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.

I'm having troubles with stuttering when I'm trying to play 1080p blue ray content over HDMI. I have tried stock 2.3 and CM7 both with similar results. I noticed that when I overclock to 1.4ghz stuttering is less. My question is how is possible to play without stuttering?

to me it worked with no problem
i have a friend who works in a service shop who tested it for me
he tested on an LG TV
maybe it`s because of the TV?
i also put a video filmed with the phone on my Samsung TV worked ok also
Well I think "1080p Blue Ray" is too much.
I usually convert my vids to 720p mp4, it plays flawless that way. The phone is not a dedicated video player
O, wait, I'm assuming you're using the stock video player, no? Cause if you're not, that may be the issue.
Other players in the market use software decoding, while LG's stock use hardware decoding. Given LG has full access of the Tegra's code, it allows the player to make full use of the chipset's power.
i think i might know. it`s stuttering because the amount of data needed to be processed by the phone is too big. since you said it`s blue-ray.
also the vid is probably big. more than 8GB. since the standard format used by the phones is FAT. you probably converted it to NTFS or exFAT?
anybody experiencing poor resolution quality while casting your chrome tab? I know my connection is not the problem because I have 54mpbs fiber optics...
Got to your chromecast extensions options and change the tab projection quality

yes already tried that and still same problem
I have the same problem. Any time I cast a tab I lose lots of video quality. When I cast the entire screen it looks much better but that won't allow audio streaming right now.
Netflix and youtube quality is great but chrome tab must still be in beta
<AOL>Me too</AOL>
Seeing the same thing. Casting the whole screen to my 1080p screen looks great. Casting a tab looks like someone miscoded an antialiasing routine.
Tab casting has nothing to do with your Internet speed, and everything to do with your internal network speed and PC power.
Your PC is rendering the page and streaming to the Chromecast. My HP Ultrabook can barely handle 3 frames per second using wifi, but my desktop does a good job at full 720p video hardwired to the router.
Hi there,
Is it possible to stream video thru wifi to TV without lag/buffer interrupts/skips? if anybody got this right, would you please post your working setup (app, hardware, what kind of video formats); even better, can someone knowledgeable post a guide on how to make this feature work?
just to mention things I tried with little to no success:
what works every time : locally playing any video using basically any player such as mx player bsplayer, the system video player..
Also streaming from a media server to phone works fine.
partially work for streaming thru wifi ie with interrupts imediashare, skifta, etc. I tried with TV wired or on same wifi network, didn't make a difference ; I also tried 3 various wifi routers, b, g and n, on both 2.4 and 5 GHz, link speed on phone shows anything from say 30 to maximum 70 Mbps.
thanks,

I use HTC accessory , although it isn't inexpensive, it works fine with all the tv and computer monitor that I have tried.
This device plugs into hdmI socket on tv, it's powered by usb power supply that's included in the package and streams whatever is on your HTC One screen, still images or video. It seems to manage full hd 1080p without noticeable lag .

thanks for your input. I was also thinking about getting the xiaomi box : http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CXJTPIE
there are few reviews of this Chinese product but the format coverage and all other specs seem interesting. I am only waiting for the next iteration of it with improved cpu..
Going back to my previous question, had anyone been successful streaming directly from HTC one, without additional hdmi box?

My HTC Media Link sucks.
But the more i think about it the more i think it might just be my router settings or something that is limiting it.

As promised in another thread, I captured a video of the native full-screen mirroring lag.
Delay is half a second or less, video seems shows closer to quarter of second. Content doesn't seem to matter much - feels like the same delay mirroring streaming TV.
Sorry, the darn rolling shutter makes it pretty much impossible to discern the hundredths of a second, tenths are barely legible...
And please ignore the audio - my wife was wondering what I was doing... as usual. :angel:

If you want to run your own test, the timer video is from MediaCollege.com and the MP4 version should play natively without needing any conversion.

Have you tried to stream a movie or channel like from xbmc? I have a Sprint Galaxy s3 and the same router also. I have used VLC player with my movies. I have a network with 30/3 speeds.

To add more my problem is while I'm on xbmc playing a channel it will buffer and lose sound then the soundtrack will be off from video like about 5 to 10 seconds.

I don't use XBMC but I've played TV episodes from Xfinity TV Go (which doesn't support Chromecast) and haven't noticed any problems.
Since the screen mirroring traffic is also going through WiFi along with your streaming it'll take up more WiFi bandwidth so signal reception on all devices involved becomes more critical.
I tried the same with AllShare Cast (I have an AllShare Wireless Hub connected to another input on the same TV) and while yet lag is similar, I noticed that WiFi Direct seemed to limit general network traffic more. My streaming playback video would break up from time to time. No such problem with Chromecast mirroring.
