What file formats work for you?
I spent hours trying to get the damn thing to work, port forwarding, rtsp commandline codes, telenet interface, web interface. HOURS and nothing streamed atall, not even music.

What exactly was it you did? mine gets stuck on buffering and no video or audio appears
Load vlc, web interface, open media file and it worked?

Well for me I opened VLC on my computer and added the web interface.

Then I opened VLC Stream & Convert on my phone, went to connect and clicked scan. It found my computer so I clicked connect then just clicked browse and picked any movie in different formats (wmv, mp4, mov, avi) and it played fine... Do you have a router? Maybe it's something to do with that, I don't know? Also the only firewall I have is just Mac OS X built in one

works perfectly.

Only 2 things to correct.

the apk will stay always on. Need a task killer do close the app.

and a strange error always showing:

INFO: a processing error occurred.

Tested in my lan and externally. working good.

Amazing app. now the only thing missing is a way to reproduce the my dreambox to vlc ( easy ) and then be able to open it with vlc in my galaxy...

Got it working, didn't realize it was something as simple as HAVING to use the in built browser... damn it lol

Few bugs, annoying bitrate limit, minor sound glitches, sometimes audio goes out of sync and audio wont play for some files

Otherwise a great app, wish VNC could resize subs though, causes some issues

For the audio sync problems (or no audio at all) I forced it to Stereo under rtsp video settings and now is playing all my files fine.

Hi if you hold long Play/Pause button this is equal to Stop and than "Back" button to exit the APP :)

Processing error bug me too.
I will like to use this app to stream my dreambox TV-outside home network. So i Have sugestion to have different profile to stream depending of internet speed.

kinder__bueno do you find how to watch dreambox stream on Galaxy S?
