Hi All,
having had my Galaxy S for a few weeks now I am still struggling to find an itunes/ipod equivalent. I really would like to get rid of iTunes but it made using the iPhone as an iPod very easy.
I drive a lot and listen predominantly to tech podcasts and audio books. Audio books are nicely taken care of with the audible app. I don't want to download podcasts on the Galaxy, because I want to keep some podcasts and that is easier to manage on the PC. I want to be able to sync my phone and automatically get a playlist of podcasts I haven't listened to yet.
So, I have been experimenting with MediaMonkey, Winamp, DoubleTwist, and The Missing Sync.
What I have noticed is that if I connect the Galaxy to a VmWare XP Virtual Machine all the programs work fine, but natively on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, I get odd behaviour:
Winamp, DoubleTwist, and the Missing Sync all will not recognize that I have connected the Galaxy. Yes it is in Mass storage mode, yes I have mounted the phone, yes I can see the drives in explorer and happily drag files to and from both the internal storage and the SD card.
Is anyone successfully using any of these applications with a 64 bit version of Windows 7?
Or has anyone had similar problems?
Hello
I was wondering if there is some kind of application
That makes the device to Strimer
In other words, instead of copying to the device HD movies
I can see it directly from the network
you can use smartshare and dlna and stream movies you have on the pc
How I do it?
VLC has an option for this. Try the app VLC Direct and install VLC Media player on your desktop. You got 2 ways of streaming with it, from the PC to your phone, or the other way around. The app itself has a tutorial, so you should be fine!
Anyone out there use external hard drives with their Nexus 10? What format do the files need to be in order for Nexus Media Reader to read the media files? (NTFS or FAT32?) Does it actually matter what format since the tablet isn't downloading the file onto the tablet but rather just playing media off of it.
Also what format does Nexus Media play? I could probably look it up but let me know if you happen to know.

I got myself a cheap 2 dollar OTG cable and I use a WD 2TB Passport drive. I have the drive formatted NTFS and the N10 reads everything just fine through Nexus Media Importer. Flash drives work just fine without an outside power source, however, with a USB powered External, you will need to use a powered USB hub... I use MX Player for video, and it will play any file type, WMV, mkv, you name it. There are more capabilities you can utilize if you are rooted (so I've heard), but I'm leaving this stock.

Bump..! Anyone ?
In my opinion, the best way to access files of your PC is to share your folders on the PC and mount them on your phone through CIFS. This is the most natural way, just like you'd do it between PCs.
CifsManager makes this pretty easy. You just need to enter the path to your PC share, user name and password, and where you what the share to be mounted on your phone's file system. Then you can mount and unmount the share with a singe click, and access all the files from the PC just if they were local files.
Note: The phone needs to be rooted though. And there is a bug in android kernel 3.4.0, which makes it hard to get CIFS working. ("Invalid argument" error, even if you enter everything correctly). Let us know if you run into that problem.
Hi,
I purchased a Remix Mini this black friday to replace my ~7 year old Asus O!Play HDP-R1 media player. It works just fine, except connecting external hdds. When I connect it, a window pops up, so I can see the files (and the MX Player sees too), but I can't see as mounted drive in file explorers or torrent clients.
Until now I downloaded the torrents (just legal contents, of course) on my laptop, searched for subtitles and moved the files to an external hdd, then connected it to my media player, but I want to do the downloading and subtitle searching directly on my TV (hopefully with the Remix Mini).
I don't like media streaming methods, because my point is to use less devices simultaneously.
Any help are welcome, thank you!
