Audio issues when streaming from PC to Nexus - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have been spending several hours trying to figure out how to stream videos from my Windows 7 PC to my nexus 7
Currently I stream videos to my PS3 using WMP and everything works perfect no issues at all.
I have been trying to find the perfect app to do this.
I first tried http://www.aviatheapp.com/index.html
While it connects to my PC and plays the video perfectly fine no audio is ever played, these are mpg files. I tried about 5 differnt ones and all the same.
So then I tried BubbleUPnP, along with an external player like BS Player or Dice and it works I can get audio and it plays video, but for some odd reason the audio is super low out of the speakers even at max, you can barely hear it. If I plug in headphones audio seems to be fine.
I also tried Plex Media Center/Server and I get the same thing.
Now if I play a video that is stored locally on my sdcard in any player the video is perfect out of the speakers.
I am really confused and wondering what do you guys do and do you have audio problems?

Weirdness: Video Works, But Not Audio

This just on a select group of my videos, but a few of them don't have audio working in the stock video player and Act I. The video goes, but not the audio.
In Rockstar Player, the suspect videos played just fine.
Any reason why this might have happened and how to fix it?
my guess is that the suspect videos are coded in 5.1 or 6.1 surround. The stock media player doesn't support this. You could demux the audio to 2 channel and they will probably play fine.
I thought about this. It shows it as 2 channels, so that can't be it.
The audio bit rate could be out of range for the internal decoder. Try checking that. Other than that, I dunno.

[Q] no audio with .mp4 videos

i dont really thing ive ever tried, but ive pulled several of my old dvd converts up from their usb flashdrive graves, and ive noticed im not able to get any audio out of them when playing on my epic. they will however allshare (dlna) to my ps3 and audio works just fine. does anyone else have this problem? i did flash Viperrom 1.0.1 last night, so i havent tried playing these on a di18 rom. just wondering. thanks.
ive found that on mp4, the epic can only play 2 chanel audio.
i really burned me because most of my shizz in in 5.1 surround(6 channel) and wont play. it only plays stereo (2 channel)
check your videos properties on you computer.

Splashtop Remote HD - 5.1 Audio downconvert

OK this is driving me crazy because I had this working and now, for some reason, I can't repeat my earlier success.
I want to be able to stream mkv video's and DVD's via SageTV on my desktop server through my Transformer. In order to do this I understand that audio has to be down converted to 2.0 stereo. I am fairly certain that prior to a recent upgrade I was able to do so by using AC3Filter and setting the output to 2.0 and turning off SPDIF.
Now, I do so and the only audio that streams to my Transformer is the Windows Sound Effects and music outside of SageTV. All my videos play with no sound. I do NOT receive the warning message that normally comes when the output source isn't set to Stereo with 44 or 48khz.
I know that this used to work either:
A) I've forgotten some critical step or
B) the updated Splashtop server(which does mention some 5.1 revisions that I don't understand) has messed this up.
Any thoughts?
Try playing the DVDs and videos with VLC. Use SageTV only when you need surround sound.
I played through vlc and it worked. I guess there must be a Sagetv plugin issue.

[Q] Bluetooth and video?

I use headphones or a Sound-freq speaker when watching movies and videos.When using BS player the video and sound do not sync up.If using the gallery player everything syncs up well on both headphones and speakers..Is there a way to sync up the bs player as well?It handles more formats and I like the extra volume and brightness controls on it. thanks

i don't know what BS player is, but this is a common issues across multiple applications. it has to do with BT hardware, the application, BT priority and sound quality.
I have watched several streaming video types using my Potato Tunelink BT adapter. Netflix is by far the worst offender. Off by an entire half-second. Hulu streams great, YouTube has a slight delay. Crackle is about a split off.
If you want quality audio, use the audio port.
BTW, this is true of ANY device. My DROID3/4 both exhibited the same qualities. I thought it was a limitation of the phone. Faster devices do decrease latency, but if the latency exists, it's built into the application.
Maybe I could have been more clear on what I was asking. sorry
I know the problem is there but the BSplayer can be adjusted for audio offset to compensate for the lag.I just can't seem to find out how to do so.The gallery player seems to do it automatically because it always works whether playing files on the device or streaming from my computer or elsewhere. I would like someone to tell me how to adjust this in the BSplayer app. thanks
