to download the PC share manager software.
Install software and setup the file on your computer you want to share, the software is kinda slow so this may take a bit.
Turn the server on and open the Allshare app on your phone and click on playvfiles from server on phone.
Go to the PC share manager software on your computer and click on share and then device policy.
You should be able to see your phone, your phone is labeled SGH-T959, click accept.
Then go back to your phone and if the server is not showing yet click refresh and you should be set.
Now you can watch and listen to all your movies and music on your computer from your phone.

You running Windows 7?
Software version shows Xp/Vista...
Just checking if any1 knows if its compatible
There's and even easier way if you don't mind using Windows Media Player
If you click on the 'Library' drop down menu your phones server name should automatically show up, even if the allshare app isn't activated. From there, just find the folder where you stored your media and you should be good to go.
NOTE: You have to have, If you're using Windows 7, your media sharing enabled in the network and sharing options in the control panel.
EDIT: or u could just connect allshare to windows media center lol btw, i just figured ou how to use ALLSHARE WITH XBOX360!!!
The first thing I tried was the Windows Media Player and on XP it does not see my phone so I can't give access to my phone and even when I click share with all my phone does not see the WMP.
i could get the samsung app for my pc to work correctly on my phone however i can confirm, Windows media sharing works great

any one know how to do this with ps3???
You don't even need to use WMP if you are on Windows 7. All you need to do is go to Control Panel > Home Group and check the libraries you want to share. I'm sharing my pictures, music, and videos folders. Then check "Stream my Pictures, Music,....."
and hit "Save Changes" on the bottom.
Congratulations! Now your stuff is shared with your phone, Xbox 360, PS3, other computers, and anything else on you network. No software needed.

I use the AllShare app on the phone, but no software on the PC side.
My N900 supported file streaming from the stock media player as well.
I guess I'm a moron. I have XP at home and I couldn't figure out how to enable sharing via Media Player.

The PS3, Dont have to do anything it will see the phone. It will be under video, and under the PS store. It worked great.
I was told you can do this from your Xbox360, but could not get it to work.. Any help would be great.
What kind of file can the Vibrant play? I have a lot of xvid video but it says "sorry, this video cannot be played"
I cannot connect any of the ways described above. I don't know if I'm missing something but when I turn on allshare, it says no media. First I tried the way of the first post but I when I click on share and set device policy, I get nothing. Then I tried streaming a file through windows media player and i have streaming enabled but don't get anything on my phone. Then I made a homegroup with windows 7 but still don't see any shared media in allshare. My phone is connected to my wifi so any clue as to what I could be missing?

Using the WiFi on the prophet, is it possible for me to listen to music from my computer's hard drive via the Prophet from another room?
Yes quite simply using standard windows shares. I set up a favorite in MortPlayer.
Anither option would be to install uPNP server software on your PC, something like Microsoft's Media connect and then get a uPNP player on the PPC. I think Nero Showtime Mobile supports uPNP and is currently free.

Windows Media Encoder
Hi,
I found that the easiest way to do this is to install Windows Media Encoder 9 Series from Microsoft. You can set up your own broadcasting station with that. Install, choose content to stream, set desired compression, and voila, you'll be broadcasting to the whole world if you want to.

AbuYahya,
Are you sure you have the correct path from your WMP10 on your mobile? From WMP10, open URL and Put in your ip/local pc path and then add /live at the end as that is the default for WME9 broadcasting name.
Cheers...
re:WME
thanks it works with the suffix of "/live"
thanks again
What settings do you need in WE9 as everytime I try to connect to the stream I get a cannot play the format error. I am streaming MP3 files. Can't seem to get this to work at all with WMP10 Mobile.
Any help would be appreciated.
I use MediaMonkey with the Oddcast plugin going to an Icecast server. Foobar2000 is the best PC client and, of course, Mortplayer on Windows Mobile devices. There does seem to be a problem with Mortplayer if you stream in .ogg but .mp3 works perfectly. All free software too!
my first reply
Is there anyway to map a networked drive on a local network?
I was hoping I could connect to my home wifi and then stream videos from a shared drive on a PC.
Any way this is possible?
There is a SMB File Sharing app in the market. I never used it but it should work.
have you looked into gmote or aFile?
I was searching for the same thing a while back. What I finally did was download Gmote on my phone and Gmote server for my home computer. I set it up to allow me to connect to a Media folder over the 3G network (I'm with Sprint). I had to forward the port on my router at home and add an exception to my firewall. I also had to get a static IP for my router by using No-IP.
Once all that was done I could open gmote on my phone, pick my media folder on my home computer and start streaming my mp3s. Since it's over the 3G network I can be anywhere! The sound quality is great as well and I like the simple VLC player. My only complaint is that I wish the player would show album art in the background instead of just in the lower corner. I think it will do that over wifi but not 3g.
It takes a little bit of setup but the results are well worth it!

This sounds awesome. Luckily, I have a couple of servers running on the PC already so I just need to configure the software.
Will it work for videos?
If you are just streaming Media, try out ORB. Its cool, download a server app on the home computer, it scans for all your media then login to the website and pick your song that you want to play or video, what ever. Ironically i just posted this on another thread too....

I haven't had much luck but, then again, I only tried one video.
Can't get remote desktop to work... I guess I need to check the settings. I'll go home and set up both servers and test both apps out. Hopefully everything will go smoothly.
I've tried searching through the forums to see if this issue has already been solved but I wasn't able to find a clear answer on XDA or through google... so I figured it out on my own If this solution has already been discovered and posted please let me know.
Anyways, I know a lot of us haven't been able to get Allshare to connect with the Xbox360 (really the other way around), but after a little toying around with different options, I came upon THE way to push media from any galaxy s phone to the Xbox...
1.) All you really need to do is to have media center set up on your Xbox360 (if you haven't, just follow the super simple steps provided by the software itself)
2.) Just open up Allshare like normal, and when you get to the select device screen, you should now see "xbox360 media center" instead of what you may have saw before which was just "xbox360"
3.) Now just select your media like you would anyway, and viola, your media should begin to playback on it's own instantly.
...this should also work the same with regular media center on pc.
As I said before, if this has been posted, there's no need to flame me. Just let me know and I'll take it from there lol.
If I'm in Media Center on the 360, nothing shows up under allshare. If I exit Media Center to the Dashboard, then I see "Xbox 360" in allshare, but I can't do anything with it. Your steps are pretty vague, so what am I doing wrong?

If anyone has gotten this to work can you shed some light on what you have done differently.
Whenever I do this it keeps saying my Xbox 360 requires a update to play my media, and I install the update and it still asks for it -_______________________-.

I have a pc that I play videos from on the xbox but its running xp and when I start media center in the xbox it checks the network then displays a code and tells me to finish the setup at xbox360.com. Am I missing something?

That's correct. Your xbox needs to be set up and linked to your Media Center PC first.

Since you got it working perfectly maybe you can help me. I was able to see the samsung galaxy s in the ps3 video menu and start playback from there but i was not able to get the ps3 to show up on the allshare menu and thus I was not able to use the phone as a remote for the video on the ps3. If you could post what you did to get the ps3 on the allshare menu on the phone that would be great. I would really like to have the control on the phone so i dont have to get out a ps3 remote.
Still can't get this to work. The 360 never shows up in the list on the phone, but the name of the PC that the 360 is extending shows up... twice. If I select it, nothing will play.
The other issue is, most of my music is on my external SD card, but when I select that as the default storage location in the AllShare settings it doesn't find anything.
The Allshare app worked with the 360 from the 1st day I got my Vibrant (Jul 2010). However, I thought it was lame (for my purposes anyway) because it but seemed to require a Media Center PC. It doesn't look like that has changed. Skip Allshare. I eliminated the PC by using Twonky from the Market. Any other DLNA server replacement from the Market may work as well too. If you like / want to have a PC in the middle, this simply ignore this post.
So I have 2 computers on my router/wifi and when I open all share I can not get to my computer only my moms now my computer does not have wire less internet but I should be abel to get it thro the router. I have windows 7 ultimate and the computers home made. Any one know why I can't see my computer?

XBMC
I was completely unable to see any of my machines running Windows 7 or XP on the Vibrant. But I installed XBMC and it has a UnPn server and worked great. It's a great media center and there's also an excellent Android client that you could use for everything except streaming to the phone - for which I use AllShare.

I had no problem with allshare on win7, and I didn't even download anything from samsung. Just control panel -> network and internet -> homegroup -> share media with devices (check that off).
All the music in my music folder will be shared automatically and accessible from allshare on the vibrant with this.
I just decided to try it today for fun, and that was all it took. I don't really like that it's locked to "my music" folder, but if you don't like that, just get the gmote app (free) - since you can play things on your phone via the gmote app or on your pc. same thing but without restrictions.
Allshare won't see a Windows 7 computer unless you have the computer set up to share media.
Ill try home group right now thanks guys I was messing with makeing a home net work yesterday but not that.

hi everybody,I moved this question from Q andA section,no one replayed ..maybe here and sorry for posting same thread again ...
I have tried to share my files in the DHD with PC using DLNA with Windows media player and there was no problem to see PC files in DHD., but can't see any from DHD on Media player... any ideas why DLNA works only one way? Thanks... (same with Nero mediahome too)..
You will need to select the files on your phone you wish to share on your network. Media Player on your PC has already configured media to share.
Go to android market and search for DLNA or media share to find programs that will allow you to do this. Once shared, files will be visible from your phone.

...the default one-connected media..and skifta too...both same results,files are playable only on phone...
You can play files from your DHD on your computer using the Windows Media Player (on Win7 it works, I think Vista should be fine too, not sure for XP though - you might need to update the WMP). You have to enable "remote control" on the player settings and then you can play files drectly. There is no way without a third party software to get DLNA on the DHD working like a media shared folder (the way the DHD can see the files shared on your computer).
..yeah..I did everything necessary to set up connection..and still can see any change to play files from phone on PC..still just having only phone player on menu...no windows one..I thing,there is an issue with 64bit vista..
