By any chance do you have a PS3 or an XBox? If so, you can use the Media Server app and view photos and videos through the PS3 or XBox, I do it all the time and it works perfectly for me, even playing full 1080p movies. Keep in mind both your PS3 or XBOX and the tablet/phone need to be on the same Wifi network obviously. This is the app I use on my Galaxy S3 phone:

Usage example: You turn on the PS3, launch Media Server on your device, go to the PS3 under what you want to access (videos, music, or photos) and you should see the device listed. You select it and it should show you all the files listed for that format. The PS3 separates each file type so under Photos in the PS3 you will only see photos listed. I also use the desktop version of the application in Ubuntu Linux to watch movies from my computer on my bigscreen HDTV. Pause, previous, next, and all those remote control commands still work though fast forward and rewind can lag a bit.
