Ok people, I got my DHD today and I have been searching the boards and the net for information on how to use the DNLA feature either with my ps3 or my windows 7 pc, theres drips of info here and there but nothing solid.
Could someone plaes explain what I need to do to be able to stream videos recorded on the DHD to my tv through my ps3 or point me in the direction of a step by step guide???
Im not even sure how to turn the Dnla feature OF the phone on
Thanks for your help,
Lee.
Hey
Hadnt noticed this thread i just posted a similar thing...
i think dnla is automatically on, its that media connected app on the dhd.. but it dont find my ps3 when its on lol!
I got my DHD today too and cant get the ps3, xbox 360 to work at all, not without downloading twonky media server from the app market but that defeats the purpose of having it built into sense. any help in getting this up and running would be very much appreciated. btw first post on these forums after years of reading them.

I posted this earlier in the Kaiser forum but i guess it was the wrong place to put it. Well, now it's possible to use a wii remote on your pc to play via bt. is there any talk about drivers being made for ppc? that would be awesome! then we can play emulators and have more fun with them using a wii hand! hope sombody comes up with something for this really soon (even though i never even got the things to work on my laptop, spent lots of time, but no luck:\, anyways, hope the ppc one is better!)
Hey folks so I am trying to do something that I am not entirely sure I can do. I will try my best to explain it clearly and I hope one of you may be able to direct me in the right direction as I am having little luck on google.
Basically I have IPTV through my phone company. I have the option for a second box and am looking for a way to stream that feed through my computer. From my computer I would like encode the feed into a mobile feesable compression and feed it to my phone through.
Is anyone aware of anything like this that will work or something capable of doing this??
If someone even knows of a service provider that works directly with TV feeds over the internet for mobile I would be even happy with something like that. But of course ideally it would be better to be able to use my own services that I already pay for.
On a last note. My cell phone provider DOES offer tv for mobile but NOT for pdas. LOL and the TV service itself is lousy.
I think the solution is on this web-site orb.com
I'm using it successfuly all the time.
Thanks I am gonna check out that software whenI get home.
On further research while here at work. I came across the Slingbox media option. I was curious if anyone has tried this for there home system yet? The website states that it can be connected to your satellite or digital cable boxes but I have to admit I am confused with the interaction of the two. Mainly the remote control portion.
If you have a Sling box which is acting like a "tv" but actually defering that signal to a remote location like a laptop or phone how does this box change the channel if it's just receiving signal? Does the slingbox itself act like a uber remote control and has to be placed directly infront of the digital box to act like a remote to relay the information back to the remote device?
I apologize if this seems on the border of being off topic but the goal is to stream live TV to my PDA which I suspect one of you techy people may have tryed such a solution!
I have used the Slingbox mobile player extensively with my Mogul over the Sprint EVDO network...I LOVE IT!!! Occasionally it's a memory hog and I may have to reset the phone...but all in all the Slingbox will do what you are asking about.
I have loaded and been running orb now for the past week and have to admit I am extremely happy with this application. It is fantastic so far and the intereface is great and easy to use!!
However after continuing research I will definetly be investing into a sling box as I have a second digital box collecting dust and would love to be able to channel surf lol!! Will just have to run both I suppose. Orb for movies and audio and Slingbox for tv surfing!!
Thank you for your input everyone!

The Sling hardware has an IR transmitter dongle, (or two), that you point at the decoder boxes IR reciever. The Sling client app, (both mobile and PC), have a software controller counterpart that can even actually looks like the remote control, (PC version). All IR functions work great from the mobile and the PC clients!
I love the slingbox and use it fine on my titan, although have had issues on other HTC Smartphones. It basically captures any video signal and sends it over the internet for remote viewing. whbell is right, it has a IR blaster that you put on the front of the device you want to control remotely and it sends your remote control codes to the box. You don't need a seperate set top box as long as the people at home are ok with watching whatever you are watching. I have mine hooked up to my pvr and can pull up all my recorded movies, or more importantly, setup a recording remotely if I forgot to do it at home.
Definitely a must have.

ORB is great for TV, just install a TV tuner / capture card in your PC. Sling box is okay for people without PC's, but if you already have one setup with ORB, there is no need for Sling box.
BTW, if you use Windows Media Center,you could also check out WebGuide.
i have been reading online and found a few of the how to guides on how to do this but unfortunatley the download links are broken i was wondering if anyone here would be willing to put an up to date guide together .... i was also wondering is if you always need your evo conected to the ps3 for it to work or is a one time thing ...also would like to know by doing this would i loose the ability to play games online with the ps3
with any console modding you may lose the ability to play online. I say may only because some games and consoles like the wii dont have checks to make sure you are not modded. the ps3 however i am sure has checks built in and will make it so you have to run a certain version to be able to play online, however there are some fixes to get the latest versions and still maintain modding functionality. This is my experiance with modding the wii but i am sure most still applies across all consoles.
yea i already have the wii mod .... pointless since the wii isnt ever used in my house id much rather have the ps3 mod and if possible to still play online that would be great knowledge
I wouldn't risk playing online with a mod. One update from sony will **** you up. Just like it did for hundreds of thousands of xbox owners. Not only did their live account get terminated, but they also got their hwid blacklisted.
whats hwid?

no it doesnt need to stay connected. the files are out there an there are guides on this very forum and if your running 3.42 your screwed for the moment.
Firmware 3.42 means you're already SOL and have updated too far.
If you were 3.41 you could still use the jailbreak. You just need to be running the jailbreak kernel on your phone momentarily while you start up the PS3. Once it's on you can unplug the phone and return it to normal, but you will have to repeat every time you turn the PS3 off and on.
Also the workarounds for remaining able to play online have been defeated as well, so basically you have to have 3.41 or older and you can no longer go online at all (well do stuff that needs PSN)
Hello everyone,
I thought it would be most appropriate to post this in the general section as i think many people must b looking for such an application (Source-searched over web)
I would appreciate if someone could suggest me an application that can make our phone a wireless Audio receiver for our PC. I read a thread where we could suggest which apps we want but could no longer find it.
i read it somewhere that 'dlna/ALLSHARE' can do it but didn't quite figure out how..
if there's any other app it would b great to know..
TNX
You could also use gmote which for me is faster than allshare....their website has the instructions!
....This is an automated message......
Tnx everyone but tht's not what i need.... i need an app that can stream PC's audio to our phone ...making it more like a wireless headset (when the ear plugs are plugged in ) !!!
Also, I've the ALLSHARE server installed and running on my system...but still the app can't detect it
vlc direct. You play what you want to your pc vlc player and it streams it to the phone. Try it and if you have questions let me know.
Hi first post: hope I can get an answer well I was playing ps3 the other day and one of my friend says we should stream our matches for the facebook group we have since this tablet have an HDMI port I was wondering if is possible to connect the ps3 to the tablet and stream to Justin TV or record the game play some way? Thx for all the help
No, the hdmi on your tablet is only to output signals too your tv and not the other way around.
so there's no way to stream from my tablet?
Yes and no, Yes you can stream stuff from your tablet, no you can't stream what you want, though I've read someone used their A500 as a wireless keyboard for their ps3......
