Is it possible to have video out? So I could either Wired or Wirelessly send my phone display to my TV/PC Monitor/Display etc?
I'm going to guess this is a no but would be something I would love to be able to do!
I would like to know to I sold my EVO and then a few weeks later I got a huge flat screen lol sucks right. But I got the g2 and still would like to get something now but not sure if its possible.

you can stream wirelessly via DLNA with the Vision. check Twonky out on the market.
whatever you're streaming to must be DLNA compliant, if it needed saying.
Ill take a look at it! Thank you

Here you go.
also, if you want a nice resource on how to use DLNA, their website is pretty helpful at explaining what it is and how to use it.
I am not a twonky spokesperson, in fact I don't even use it anymore, but when I was doing DLNA streaming, it was my fav. there are others out there, just do some googling for android DLNA apps.
happy streaming!
Oh sweet thanks for the help about to look at the links right now

Well Orb really isn't that bad. I had a hacked version of the Android client. I can't post a link or attach it because of this sites Warez policy. Since I'm 12 stepping off windows I deleted the Orb client since I don't need it. I'm sure many people here know the big warez sites and will have no issue finding it.
A few weeks ago Buy.com had some Pogoplugs for $49.99. I picked one up, I'd rather have it and usb drive up 24/7 then a desktop/nettop. The Pogoplug client isn't bad for streaming your audio. I can navigate all 100GB of audio, sort by artist or album name. It' not bad. For video it kind of suxs.
I find VLC server and the Android client are a little clunky and a pain.
When I get some time I will be looking into FFmpeg server for video streaming/transcoding. I haven't found much on the linux side that I like for streaming. I look forward to other people's suggestions.

No, you do not. The amounts on the websites are merely suggestions. You can donate any amount you wish (I know $2 worked for a few), and you get your license. Or, you can compile it from source, or, look at the source code itself for a workaround, if you really don't wish to donate :-/

Surprised no one has talked about this at all. Anyway, happened to be watching Netflix on my XBOX last night, and while doing so, was checking out some pictures on my phone. Saw a button I never seen before that kind of looked like a little computer screen with 3 lines kind of going through it. I guess it said something like "view on another player". This apparently being the first time I was using my S3 and XBOX at the same time. So I press the button, and it stops my movie, and shows my picture on my TV!
Did some fooling around. As long as I'm using a stock music, video, or gallery app, and the file is on the phone itself, it will stream through my XBOX at the touch of a button. The free Avengers movie in Media Hub didn't work, Netflix didn't work. USB transferred an episode of Hell on Wheels over to the phone, it asked if I wanted to convert it to assure it would work on the phone and said yes, tried it out and it worked pretty good. I can only imagine how nice it would have looked if I hadn't converted it, going to try later and see.
Was just curious if anyone else has used this feature at all? Seems pretty cool to me.
I think that's DLNA.

The TV has nothing to do with it, it's going through my XBOX. It was just crazy to me because I've never been able to link my XBOX and computer properly, and I can see my computer in the gallery app sometimes but I can never see any files. I did happen to start a test on my battery while having basically everything running and all options available, so I have activated some options I normally don't use. I think one night I tried messing with the settings on my XBOX to get it to show my phone since it comes up on my roomie's PS3 although I've never tried using this feature on that before. Since I don't use my XBOX a whole lot lately, and I imagine it's possible others don't use it at the same time, I thought I'd mention it.
aNYthing, is that exactly what DLNA is? because, if so, there's a lot of people going and buying that allshare hub thing that wouldn't need to if they have an XBOX or PS3. Obviously Samsung is not going to promote that! I don't have the DLNA share option being used so it never occurred to me that it could be using it. I guess I assumed DLNA was something that was used to go directly to the TV, which in my case, is not what's happening, and definitely not possible.

on the phone. XBOX was already playing a Netflix movie. Pressed it and it stopped the movie I was watching, and a few seconds later, it appeared on my TV. Swiped to another pic, and IT popped up. Watched a short video I took the other day, it looked GREAT! As I said, I'm not really sure what I changed or if I established a link between my S3 and XBOX before or not but hey, it was pretty damn cool to me, lol.

works great on my xbox. i'm sure the file has to be compatible but you probably won't get the other viewer option if it's not anyway.
My main purpose of this post was to find other people using the same feature and if they have any tips such as, what files will work for this or what apps can use it, etc.
had no idea i could do this until i saw this thread. thank you!
You have to be connected to the same Wi-Fi and it will work.

I made a tut on how to do this on the PS3 but it didn't seem too many people were interested in it. Simple though get a video converter and convert the movies to mp4 standard and don't let the phone convert it on transfer leave it the way it is and it will work no matter what, the phone sends everything by means of media player so any device that allows media server wifi conection will play from this device.

I have run into an frustrating issue as of late regarding streaming music from my s3 through my xbox using the built in music player. What is happening is the music player will randomly pause while streaming, requiring me to press the play button to get it going again. This is not being caused by incoming messages or calls. I don't have voice enabled. Keep wifi on is also enabled.
Strong wifi signal through entire home. Running frosty Jb v7.
If it's a player issue whats the best alternative? I tried a few from the play store 2player, bubble UPnp, poweramp , winamp. They either have ****ty interfaces or act just as wonky.
Maybe I am just not understanding the tech of it. I turn the xbox, tv and stereo on. Then push the icon on my music player(see attached photo) and it starts streaming through the xbox. I thought it was pretty slick until it started acting up on me.
I'm getting the same thing. Happens more often when I put the phone on shuffle.

Can be done on stock as well. Its a built in feature, just need to have a wireless(wifi) capable tv, xbox, or ps3 (maybe some thing else like adapters) pretty sure anything DLNA capable. And phone and Device need to be on same wifi.

I did it on stock very easy. If you have Xbox, as long as it's on, your good. If you are watching Netflix, it will stop what you are watching. You have to use a stock samsung app. I just go through my gallery, find a pic or a movie, choose it, and there is an option which looks like a monitor with a couple of hornizontal arrows going through it. This doesn't work for streaming something on a website or whatever. If it is a file already saved to your phone it will work. All you have to do is go to the picture, or start playing the video, tap the screen and on the top you will find that different icon. Again, you have to have your Xbox ON or it won't show the icon. For Xbox it is cool because you could start watching the video or pic on your phone and want to say to everyone, HEY< WATCH THIS! and with one click it goes.
You can also connect it to work with PS3 but it only works as a media server. Meaning, with Xbox, you can decide, hey, I want to watch this on the Xbox now! With PS3, you have to search for the file and THEN, play it. It's not such an immediate action.
The folks at XBMC just released their newest version 12.0 "Frodo" Beta 2, and it's working great on our Galaxy Note 2. I though I'll share it with you guys, especially those who familiar with XBMC. Anyone interested can download the apk here http://xbmc.org/download/

Awesome. Great catch! My only issue with it is that it doesn't seem to want to detect the S-pen. For instance, when I was adding my media paths took out the s-pen to tap the folders and nothing. No screen tap detection. Anyone else having that issue?
Also, it took me a second to locate my external SD. Selecting external media actually takes you to the internal "sdcard" I had to go root filesystem, storage, extsdcard. My first Samsung device (been a HTC guy since the blue angel) so perhaps this is the norm but throwing that out there for those who may not know.
I can confirm that s-pen doesn't work with this app. But nonetheless, its still a great program. Since this app is still in beta, it could only get better.

In case you didn't find it- it's all in the setup...
For anyone who may not know xbmc stands for:
X-Box Media Center (of which it was(/is?) originally a port)
There are tons of add-ons you can install. Getting it fully setup can become an on-going evolution.
By hooking your device up to your TV & running this app you can essentially cancel your cable subscription and replace it with xbmc
There are also some additional skins & add-ons which can be found & downloaded elsewhere with a regular browser and installed from within the app (meaning: you can't get to everything that is truly available for this app from within it, although there's plenty available there...)

It's basic DLNA capability built into pretty every phone now. Different companies like calling it different things. Microsoft calls it Play-to for example.
I've been using it with my receivers for years now.

A few months ago, Amazon had the app iMediaShare for free and it has quickly become one of my favorite apps. It will find all available devices that your phone can stream to. In fact, I only have an xbox hooked up to my projector. It is a media extender for my htpc and then I just download movies to my phone and play them from the xbox through dlna.
