I may be wrong bit I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that SE have only implemented DLNA as a server and not as a client which means one way traffic only.

I tried Satio's Media Server yesterday with my network Media Player device.
To my surprise the player immediately spotted the phone and played the high resolution photos on TV.
Only delay I noticed is loading up the photos which I think is because of slow wireless connection or the phone is responding slowly.
I need to do more research on this and let you know if it plays music and video as well.

The player (in my case PS3 and WMP through my PC) both pick the Satio up very quickly (as soon as the app is started) which is expected.
I have little delay when loading the photos, try playing a music file, this is where my delay was (prob about 5-10 sec delay before the song started playing). I dont think this is because of slow Wireless connection, as streaming files from my PC to PS3 have no delays what so ever. I believe its phone responding slowly.
It only streams photo and music NO video as mentioned in previous posts above.

I see the Satio on my home network as a Media-device, WMP does not recognize it however.
My Sony Bravia TV recognizes the Satio and I can watch the photo's and listen to the Music on the Satio. It displays the album art too! cool.
I can not watch the videos, but that's a limitation of the TV. |

Hi,
Probably a silly question but how do I enable DLNA in my Satio or do I have to download that app first (from where please)?
Thank you. |
