New app: play Google Music to UPnP/DLNA devices with the Google Play Music app - Google Chromecast

I just released a new Chromecast related app, that let you stream your cloud Google Music uploaded by yourself and from the All Access subscription (including Radio) to any UPnP / DLNA device: XBMC, DLNA TVs, PCs, WDTV Live, Xbox 360, Sonos, Android, various hifi gear from Denon, Pioneer, Onkyo, and many many more.
The app is named "Cast To UPnP/DLNA for GMusic" and you can find all the details and a video in this Google+ post

Really great app. Great execution.
would this be possible with youtube as well?

Does not work anymore with new Google Music App...

Media Streaming

I'm just wondering if there is a way I can stream media (music mainly) to my phone over WiFi, similar to iTunes sharing, or Windows Media Extender kind of setup, so while I'm in the garden I can have a little music.
While I adore Spotify, I don't really rely on it enough to pay £120 a year for the service. And my own collection is nearing 80GB, so no hope of fitting it on an mSD card.
If anyone knows anything about a program which does that, well that would be swell if you could let me know.
I've found a sevice called Android Storage http://www.androidstorage.com, that allows you to upload files, then stream them to your Hero. Their apps can be found on the market.
It's not available yet, but a team of developers is working on creating an app that will add DLNA media streaming support to the Android platform. http://htcsource.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=689&Itemid=56
once released, the software should allow you to stream files to and from your Android phone to other DLNA capable devices (PS3, TV's Computers, digital picture frames).
Just the ticket. I'll be watching that closely, being able to stream stuff to my PS3 is it's best feature.
If you're talking about streaming media from your computer/laptop over Wi-Fi to your phone, then give AndroMote Remote Control a try.
I have the Pro License and it works great for me. (I do the same with my PS3, stream videos and music over the network)

[Q] DLNA Client App for Nook Color

Does anyone know any app that is the equivalent of or provides same functionality as "Archos Video" app or "Allshare" samsung app.
I am looking for something that is a DLNA client - has the ability to connect to home network DLNA server such as Tversity or Windows Media Player and play videos
I haven't tried it on my nook, but the app "Skifta" is a generic DLNA app ... available in the Market
EDIT: just realized you are looking for a client, not a server .... sorry ...

No Problem. Thanks for trying to help.
I'm still looking for the right combination of Server & Client. Here is my experience so far:
Mac OS DLNA Servers I'm testing (Twonky Server, Orb, Majestic, Playback, MediaLink). I want to stream Music, Movies and Photos from the iMAC/Server for playback ON the NC.
Twonky Mobile (not twonky Mobile Server) worked best for me. It played Movies, Music, and Photos from Twonky Server, Majestic, and Playback). I was only able to stream Music from the Orb server. My only complaint is the quality of playback is not consistant. But this may be caused by my WLAN bandwidth/coverage.
UPnPlayer worked as well. I did not care for the UI and playlist process. Also, it locked up when I tried to play/view photos. It played Movies and Music from Twonky Server, Majestic, and Playback). I was only able to stream Music from the Orb server.. The best thing about UPnPlayer is that it let's you choose which APP will actually Play the media (i.e. stock music player or Doubletwist, Stock Video or Rockplayer, etc.)
2Player - I was able to see all the Server applications. But it would not present the media folders from several for them. I was able to play music from Orb and Playback. The interface was my favorite, but too bad it just for music.
EML UPnP - I didn't like this one so I did not test it much. But it was able to see most of the Media Servers. Appeared to be Music only.
Hope this helps
I know therebis a WMC app as well as one for VLC.

Thanks all for the suggestions. I got the nook color yesterday and its already rooted with 0.6.8 (froyo in emmc).
I will try the suggestions over the weekend.

a screenshot showing Google Music streaming from Android to iPad:
Android and Windows versions (with many more features) will be available soon.
Lolwut?
It installs on iPhone/iPad/iPod, and you can stream video/music from Android or other hardware to iOS using Google's Chromecast protocol. I hope this helps.
Basically, with rPlay installed, your iOS devices become chromecast devices.

plex server + showbox + avia/allcast + chromecast = perfect

I took my old dell laptop installed ubuntu and plex server. changed the settings to always keep on. installed RealVNC so that I can login from my current laptop.
showbox app to watch movies by using external player .. selecting allcast/avia and streaming to TV
Avia app -> add media > showing my plex server and all my movies are right there
Chrome browser -> casting tab -> was able to watch even australian open live with it
got some play credit smh and purchased classics in google play movies and able to watch 1080p in TV
when got bored, youtube, vevo, play music to chromecast
life getting awesome!!!
New App (needs Avia)
This may or may not be new but I only stumbled on it today.
Like Showbox (worse UI although not unacceptable) BUT with UK Tv shows thrown in as well.
MovieDroid on the playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lowlevel.moviedroid&hl=en_GB
You are welcomez.
:fingers-crossed:
Keep a look out for Tv Portal. Much like MovieDroid it's hit or miss on the mp4 format; however, I've peeped out their 2.0 version (which is in beta and has zero functionality). Once released, tv portal will rank up there, maybe even surpass, showbox (current epic app ever).
Try amazon app store or SlideMe Marketplace.
Please be careful about posting about services that violate copyright rules such as showbox and moviebox. If they are providing paid content for free, then you really shouldn't post on xda.
Thanks!

Any way to integrate Plex/Emby movies and TV Shows in the Google TV Launcher?

FOR YOU tab shows movies from netflix and other streaming apps but is there a mod i can apply to the launcher that lets it show movies from the home media server?
I dont really use streaming services but i have a media server. Having movies show up in my screen without me opening the app would be nice. Thanks
Hello,
it would be great to be able to customize the sources of recommendation effectively
