New to android, is the following possible?

---

Hello

First post here, and my first android phone incoming.

I have always been heavily been invested in apple products, but im getting tired of them.

So now i finally made the jump, sold my ip4 and orderd a galaxy s2.

But my ht setup is kinda the way i like it now, so im gonna to ask some questions.

I have a bunch of mkvs on my pc, i do have a TV with allshare/dlna. But im wondering if its possible to use like metadata agent with scrapes all the moveis i have on my PC/network. So i can view the movie info etc on my android phone, then send the movie from my pc to my tv trough the phone, if you know what i mean.

Its kinda hard to explain, but its quite important to me.

I use plex now on my ipad 2, it scrapes from my pc and sends it from the ipad to the tv using airplay.

I guess mvideoplayer cant access movies/files on the network, i see that its metadata support, i like covers, info etc.

Sorry for all the rambling, but to summarize (since i know nothing about android).

Is there a way to stream content (which is on the pc/network) through my phone to my allshare/dlna TV, trough an app that shows metadata.

First, of all, welcome to Android.
You will not regret the move from iOS to Android.

I think this is what you are asking about. The following is from the Galaxy 2 website:

"AllShare
Show off? Why not when it’s this easy. AllShare lets the Samsung GALAXY S II link wirelessly with a TV, laptop or even audio system to play multimedia files directly from the phone. AllShare synchronizes the phone with a compatible DLNA based product. So start the streaming to the big screen in HD. That’s media convergence made simple!"

If it's plex from plexapp.com you are using on your ipad it's available for android in the market for $4.99
