Was just wondering, as i can't seem to find much on the subject, if we could play games using our note on the tv smart tv or whatever samsung..
for example, if i download Need For Speed, can i play it on my phone and the samsung mirrors the game so i can basically play it on a huge flat screen ?
and can it be done Wellesley or are particular cable needed ??
Cheerrrss !!

You can do it wirelessly, but you might get some lag(not good for games) using the Allshare Cast Dongle. Otherwise you might look at doing MHL to HDMI and using a PS3/Xbox controller. Not sure of the specifics, but here is a great video explaining all different ways.

Ok im looking for a app that will allow specifically mirroring anything on an android homescreen to my hdtv "thru Apple tv"
The catch is if u use an apple device with apple tv it actually truly mirrors what you see to the tv My goal is to steam my streaming vidoes from my browser and bookmarked sites from my s3 to my tv thru apple tv
This Isharemedia only lets u pick channels and vid picture folders this is not like real mirroring.
What other options are there without having to go buy samsungs version of the apple tv

Update: since no one gave a response , I forked over the money for a Samsung all share hub and noe my Apple tv which could of been used I'm sure with an app is now useless .
If anyone knows a way to get true mirroring from s3 to HDTV using Apple TV as a middle man let me know

I don't know of an app. But knowing Apple, that mirroring will only work with Apple devices. Because it's Apple and that's how they do things.
I had to jailbreak mine just so I didn't need to use iTunes to use the device. There were other benefits as well, like playing mkv files.
Not totally true theres a few apps in android market like imediashare that allow function from android to hd tv using apple tv as the server but its just channels to pick from not really a true mirroring, but as I clearly explained I was looking for more of a straight forward mirroring effect like apple tv airplay does for apple and how allshare cast hub mirrors for Samsung
My thoughts were what app or options are there for the two variants to work with eachother for mirroring Android device going through AN APPLE TV to get to your hdtv

I didnt try the app, but it looks cool.

What would be the most cost efficient way to wirelessly stream content such as my mlb.tv subscription from my phone to my tv (It is wifi enabled)?
Ive used apps like imediashare before for other things but i dont think itll work with the mlb at bat app.
thanks!
Only options i can think of off the top of my head are: Using what samsung designed for that specific purpos by using an all share cast dongle (~70$ on amazon) or hooking up a PC to your tv but that's kind of difficult to set up and most of the apps to view your phone from your PC are pretty laggy
Xbox 360 or PS3 if available I'd my suggestion
Have you tried twonky beam? Not sure if it would work but it looks like it might be something like what you need. It streams web videos.

All share cast dongle is your only solution. It works wonderfully too just wish it worked on aosp
I am looking to find a good device that's compatible with my 10.1 2014 edition Note, and will stream video, along with screen mirroring if possible, all to my HDTV. I have a 32" Samsung smart TV that does this flawlessly but I want to also be able to do this with my 42" Panasonic Plasma TV (It has USB ports but does not appear to have DLNA or any method of streaming video since it does not have wifi built in.) I know there's the Samsung brand Allshare device, but I've heard quite a bit of negative feedback about it. Ultimately I want something that will be reliable, and will also stream 1080p video. I saw that there are various Miracast devices, but many that I have seen do not have especially great reviews. I saw that the Roku devices can send video to an HDTV but it seems that they only do this with select Android devices, and I wasn't able to find a list of compatible devices on the Roku.com website. Lastly I was also thinking that I could possibly stream video to my Panasonic TV if I got a wifi USB stick, but I'm not sure if this would allow DLNA/video streaming. Any help with finding a device for my tablet that would allow me to stream video to my TV would be most appreciated.

I've the AllShare Cast Hub and if work well with Note 10.1.
Better than using S3 or S4. With them I've a lot of random disconnections.
Unfortunately AllShare Cast Hub stream only at 720p ancd not at 1080p. On the box I can read 1080p, but I've NEVER got this kind of connection with S3, S4 or Note 10.1.
Thanks for the reply. I'll definitely consider the Allshare box, although I may just go with a hard wired MHL2 connection since I really want to get 1080p.
Just found this IOGEAR box that isn't released till 12/20/2013, yet it looks like it may be exactly what I'm looking for! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815290053
Guess I'll have to wait till its released to see how it performs, and if it works well with my tablet.
It's not screen mirroring, but have you checked out Google Chromecast? I don't have one, but it looks promising and may be the simplest and cheapest solution for what you're looking for.
Do you have a Samsung smart tv? I have a 6500 and my s4 and this note 10.1 2014 screen mirrors fine in 1080. It may be the TV you have? If you don't have a Samsung smart TV the the All share hub is likely what you're looking at to achieve your goal.

I tried the Chromecast and wasn't satisfied. On lifejacket there's a good article about the pros and con's http://lifehacker.com/google-chromecast-does-it-deserve-a-place-in-your-livi-945082974
I think a Roku will be a good solution for many people, but if you take time to read about all the miracast products you may find a really good and inexpensive way to do it.

I'm using this little guy: NetGear Push2TV
got mine at Amazon - can't provide the link since I'm too new here.
Works pretty well on any WiDi enabled device: tablet, phone, laptop, etc.

I got the Netgear Push2tv, had it for a few days and returned it. Even with the latest firmware it frequently disconnected. I just got that iOgear box I linked above and it works flawlessly, all in 1080p.
I have been looking for a way to connect my note to my TV. My TV is 4 years old and not smart lol. So this IOGear box just streams files? or does it mirror the tablet on the tv? I use VLC player on my note. Is the playback sluggish or fast enough to watch large files?

I have an older plasma Panasonic that is somewhat "smart" but doesn't have built in wifi. The ioGear will work with just about any tv but I definitely needs an hdmi input, and I believe a usb input. Streaming runs beautifully even when running 1080p video files that are over 2 GB. I use MX player (the free version.)

Does this support full screen sharing of just transmission of movies and pictures like all share. Could I for example share BBC iplayer or a video running inside the Firefox browser?

Screen Mirroring over WiFi-Direct
I got it working with my Note 3, I can connect my Note3 via WiFi Direct to my TV
BUT.....
Is there way to turn off my display of Note 3 ?
I use Screen Standby... takes a little bit of setup, but works well.

can you please write what you setup ?
I use my ps3 and I know Xbox works as well. Install skifta and you can move all your media files to you movie folder and it works perfect for what I use it for. Which is watching torrent movies in 1080p on my 60inch TV

I recently stopped using skifta cause of that. Just turn on near by devices under settings/connections and then go to video on your ps3 and learn in media servers

Would it be possible to reverse cast whatever is on your tv to your phone? Looking at the vr headgear and wondering if i could play xbox on my tv cast the stream from my tv to my phone then be able to split the screen so i could play xbox in vr? Simple idea but dunno the limitations on this or where to start so figure if anyone had some ideas you could become a hero to millions as the android vr headset is so cheap.
