Google play movie WiFi transfer

Can anyone recommend a way of stream Google play movies over a WiFi home network to a WiFi/internet ready tv that doesn't have dnla, but can stream files over home network?
Thanks
Basically I'd like to rent off Google play, and watch on the big hd screen with the family, from my N7.

Google magazines

Where are the mags stored ? Anyway if they are accessible can you take the photos out ?

You can download the content and store it locally. While in the viewer you have the choice to see the magazine as it was printed or in a text-only version. You can switch back and forth easily while reading.

I have already downloaded 3 mags offline ,my question was where are they stored ? The google mag folder only has one file

They are probably downloaded to a folder within the app and in a format that is unreadable by any other app. They could also be hidden to prevent you from sharing them with others.

When I want a picture from a magazine, I simply go into the magazine & then screen shot it. Easy peasy.

One thing I have noticed they are huge files, I don't think you can access them anywhere within the tablet

The screen capture works fine if not a little fiderly

Screen shot is probably your only option as you are dealing with copyrighted content that the publisher likely wants to prevent people from using as they please.
BTW, if that's you in your avatar you are smoking hot. Just sayin'.

Streaming media to XBMC on raspberry pi!?

Hi guys. I was wondering if anyone know of any apps or methods on how to stream my media from my phone to XBMC on my raspberry pi?
I was able to do it through HTC Sense gallery app and music app on my Desire HD. It was a pretty handy feature and would like to know how to do through AOSP.
Hopefully someone can shed some light on this topic lol.
Thanks guys

Hi, I'm currently looking forward to to the same.
Best solution I've found yet, is to use Bubbleunpnp.
It doesn't enable you to do mirroring, but you can stream media (photos,videos,etc...).
It works flawlessly for me (N4+Raspbmc), you just have to enable Unpnp in xbmc's settings.
Cheers

Was going to suggest the same. Bubbleupnp is a great piece of kit for streaming phone media to xbmc

Can't get sixaxis to work >.<

So it keeps disabling bluetooth for whatever reason >.< this app works perfectly on my phone so I don't know what's up, any ideas?

It does that. Totally normal. Let it do it's thing, when it says listening hit the home button on the controller.
Not pairing? You need to run the tool on a computer to change the mac address that the controller is looking for.

Its not normal though it doesn't do it on my HTC one s and works just fine and leaves the Bluetooth on the whole time because it needs it on (duh). Anybody please helppppp

See it doesn't turn the bluetooth back on thus not seeing the controller >.<

Ir blaster

Just wondering what other devices you guys are using your note 3 to control. I didn't even know you could use it for things other than a TV. In the xda YouTube video review of the note 3, the reviewer mentioned he was using his note to control the camera he was using to record.

It can control anything that uses IR to receive signals and messages.

How can you use it for other things? Only options in the watch on app are Tvs and top boxes

What would you like it to do?

Of course, I use it with:
My TV's
My Dish Sets
My Projector
My Nikon
And right now I'm in the works of making my garage door work as well.
PD. I recommend using the smart remote app instead of the watchon one.

What app are you using ?

This small addon is one of the major reasons I will upgrade from note 2. Anyone tried controlling AC ?

Best one I've found so far. Simple and quick.
The Watch On app is the one that came with your phone with a fuscia icon and a tv BUT if your signature is right your phone doesn't have an IR Blaster nor this Samsung app
