PS3 uses a special DLNA protocol, UPnP, and I don't thing the PS3 uses that particular protocol. Look at the specs on the Dlink DNS 323, it has an auto stream compatible with PS3 and XBOX.

You could always give the Twonky Mobile server app a try.

First off, are you running the Allshare App on the Epic and trying to configure it from there?

I just want to know if the 360 even supports dlna before i even try. i thought 360 doesnt, but i keep reading that ps3 and 360 both can do dlna. I tried googling but to no avail. I dont have the wireless adapter for the 360, but if it can do the dlna then i might consider purchasing it. So if anyone with a 360 and the wireless adapter for it can try it would be appreciated. I'm not sure if im ever even going to use the feature since my laptop has hdmi, but it would be nice to show it off

I just messed around with this for a few minutes. How I got it to work was :

1. Open windows media center on pc

2. Turn on 360, push the windows circle on the middle of the remote and to to the tab that has media center on it. Open it, you will get a code for setup after a step or two

3. Get the code and go to pc

4. Go to extenders on the pc media center and enter the code

5. It should be set up now


Then go to your phone > all share and let it do its thing. Select the appropriate option and play list items then select xbox 360 media center and it should play.

I played some mp3's without issue. I didn't try any video yet.

Thanks Aridon, that was helpful and I have it working now! Now that it is setup, I do enjoy using the DLNA. The phone acts like a remote control which is sweet. Also the sound comes through my surround sound setup instead of the whimpy TV speakers.
