[Q] Allshare - playing HD movies from PC - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] Problem with YouTube video playback

Hello,
Suddenly I have a problem with YouTube video playback. The videos start streaming ok, but the appear small (not fullscreen) and very low quality. It used to work fine. The locally recorded videos play nice even in 720p. The problem is with the streaming video player.
I installed the LagFix (which works miracles) at somepoint earlier. Do you think that this could cause this problem? Any one else has seen it?
Thanks,
Michael

Transfering video from phone to PC [ no audio ]

i never had this problem, but when i transfer video files (mp4) from my phone to my pc i get video but no audio. I opened with VLC player which plays everything and still nothing... any suggestions? Is this because of HD?
Just came back from vacation in South Beach Miami and I have some great video I want off there
This happened to me a while back. It turned out I didn't have the right codecs in my pc
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
what did u use to fix it
Same thing happened to me. As much as I hated to, I had to use quicktime. But, iHatred aside, it worked perfectly.
yeah that's right now I remembered I had to use the same thing quicktime
check if you have amr-nb decoder installed on your system and enabled in your vlc
CCCP will supply all the codecs you'll need.

Dlna 1080p videos

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 ?

Chromecast subtitles out of Sync

I really like Chromecast but there is one problem whit it.
I spent 19.99$ on HD Iron Man 3. So i started to stream it via my network(PlayMovies no VPN).
Movie started in FullHD and its fine no lag but subtitles are 1 to 2 seconds out of sync and its same result if i use TunnelBear. I tryed it out on my N7 LTE and Find 5 and subtitles are fine and are in sync.
So does anyone know whats happening and is there any possible solution?

If you pause then restart the playback do the subtitles get back in sync, or are they permanently off?
Also, is the subtitle appearing before or after the video it should accompany?
I tried that and it's same.

Chromecast video on tv audio on phone

Hi my question is is there a player except localcast which allows me to stream videos on my tv via chromecast but let the audio play from my phone? i searched a lot of websites but could not find anything hope someone can help me here
I could see this being possible by running a UPnP server on the Chromecast and diverting/mirroring the audio through that. I think you'd probably need a rooted Chromecast to do it at this stage though (which I don't have).

I actually got that to happen accidentally while testing casting from Chrome Beta on the phone. I started a Vimeo video playing on the phone, switched to full screen, clicked the Chromecast icon, the video loaded on the Chromecast and started playing, the phone screen switched to control playing on the Chromecast - but the audio continued on the phone. That didn't happen when I stopped and started again, only the first time.
