DLNA

**enthuz** · 06-26-2011, 05:14 PM

I thought I remembered seeing a post where someone was asking if anyone has tried this to connect to a DLNA device with their EVO 3D. Well, I tried it last night to my Samsung Bluray and it worked flawlessly. I was able to stream photos, videos and pictures with no issues. This is another plus for me.

Yeah, the EVO 3D does have support for it.

My TV is also DNLA compatible, but I have no clue how to connect my phone to it.

**lafester** · 06-26-2011, 05:55 PM

I have not tried it but I believe you connect your phone to your home wifi, then through your tv menu you should be able to find default folders for pics, videos and music.

now what we really need is an msl cable for full hdmi mirroring.

I have a Samsung blueray and TV as well and the Evo 3D worked great via DNLA. The only issue is that displaying on the TV is slow. It's not an issue with the Evo, but the Blueray is slow. I'm not sure why. It does the same thing when I connect my laptop.

Any way to make the E3D show up on the PS3? I cant get it to show up.

**enthuz** · 06-26-2011, 08:53 PM

Did you activate it under Media Share?

**syphex** · 06-26-2011, 09:56 PM

I was able to set up my audio folders and connect it to my Xbox with out any problems. It worked great.

I couldn't get videos to play on my xbox 360. The pictures worked though

**CheddarBo** · 06-28-2011, 02:40 PM

hmm, didn't know it was an option to connect the EVO 3D to an xbox. Is it as simple as putting it on the network, and then using the xbox to scan for media locations?

**aznmode** · 06-28-2011, 02:45 PM

I will have to try this later. My samsung galaxy tab has All Share which my samsung tv has also and streaming downloaded movies over wifi is great. Quality is superb although not HD quality but better than dvd for sure. I'm hoping my E3d can do the same. I'll post my result later.

By the way can the OP change the title. Should be DLNA not DNLA. In case someone tries to search dlna this thread might not come up. Thank you.

Any special steps to get the your BD player to show up on the EVO? I have a Samsung BD-C6900 on the same wireless network but can't get it connected with my 3d via the Connected Media app. The BD player never shows up in the list???

Yes, I was able to do this.. It took a couple times for me to figure it out but it works for sure.... Great too..

I didn't try BD to EVO but EVO to BD. I will try the other way tonight.

Done. Thanks for catching that.

I tried again thinking that my EVO3d would show up on my BD player if I selected 'other devices' -- still a no-go.

DLNA worked seamlessly on my wifi enabled samsung TV. All I had to do was enable wifi on the phone, go into media share, check the box at the top to share folders (after selecting which folders to share), and then change the TV source literally to the phone.

The Media Share app shows that it is an outward stream and not inward. I have seen posts here of apps on AM that can do two-way streaming. I haven't tried those.

Thanks for the update -- I've been using the "Connected Media" app, which allows me to stream dierctly FROM the EVO to other devices. The app sees my networked (wired) Denon AVR and allows me to send content directly to the connected TV, using the EVO as the 'remote control'. So far, I can only play 2D pics and music this way. But for some reason, the Connected Media app doesn't see my Samsung BD on the network -- either when its wired or wireless.

I did try the "Media Share" app. I get the connection to my EVO, but it's extremely awkward & slow navigating via the BD remote, plus I haven't been able to view anything other than my 2D pics -- no movies, no 3D pics, no music. I'll get my Samsung TV connected later and see if there's any difference.

My Sony BluRay supports DLNA but its ridiculously low compatibility list for video formats kills it. It shows my Evo3D no problem, just pointless after that.

I tried so many time to do this last night but it still wont recognize my samsung TV nor can my TV see the phone. Did you go to All Share or Media Play on your TV? I tried both but no go.

My sammy doesnt have youtube, netflix, etc built in but I didn't think that mattered.

**enthuz** · 06-29-2011, 07:09 PM

I just go to "My Devices" on my Samsung BD and there is my phone listed to stream music, videos and pics. I have no lag nor issues.

**web05hitz** · 06-30-2011, 10:38 PM

I'm watching some 3D videos of my kids on our Samsung TV. No problems connecting to or finding the content - make sure you have folders with content checked on the Media Share app. The only problem is I have to re-tell the TV to use side-by-side 3D every time I start videos.

3D pictures don't work because the TV doesn't recognize the format.

Media Play. I think All Share is when you use the Samsung application for the PC to share to the TV.

Then change device to whatever you called it on the Media Share app on the phone. Default is "HTC Media Share",
