[HOW TO] Connect the GS3 to the PS3 as a media server.

You can also buy a Wi-Fi extender and put it next to your ps3. That's what I did. I hate having cables dragged around the house. I use mine to connect to a PS3, WDTV live media player, Vulkano player (Slingbox alternative). Never have any problem.

You'll never get the same quality as you would with Ethernet, in the beginning I ran it wireless and it was literally 4 feet way from my router and I changed over to wired. There is a huge difference in quality and performance running wired versus wireless and I didn't think it would matter at first but you have to think about what the system has to control simultaneously in consideration to what its designed to do. You can run it that way but this is where you'll see the limitations the most, if you want quality you need to be wired.
Seny from the one and only GS3.

I am trying to stream music from GS3 to my pre-pro av processor and have tried several apps - pixel and others but my media server keeps saying "not authorized" is it an android issue? I cannot find anyway to change settings in the processor.

streaming to ps3
Hey. I'm trying to figure out how to stream movies from my phone using showbox and link it to my ps3. I don't want to download the movie, just stream it on my phone and watch it at the same time on my old school tv through my ps3. Any suggestions? I know how to watch downloaded content just not streaming content.

I'm sure you've probably figured it out by now sorry I haven't kept up with the thread as it's quite old now but it's a good question and does actually work. If anyone wants me to do this as of now let me know and I'll put in the time to give you a few options as there are a couple depending on the system you're using.

13This is a tutorial to connect direct streaming from the SGS3 to the PS3.
Note: I used Xillisoft to change the video format to MP4 standard (works better) Transfer to the phone (Do not convert, copy as is.)
First go to settings and set it up like this:
EDIT: WIFI must be enabled, The network relies on this.
Path on device: (Settings/More Settings/ Nearby Devices)
------BEFORE YOU CHECK (File Sharing)-------
1.Shared Contents:/ check all
2.Device Name: (mine is SGH-T999/Orical)
3.Access Control: (Only Allowed Devices)
4.Allowed Device List: UPnP/1.0 (This is the GS3) and Windows-Media-Player ( if your connected to your computer as well)
5.Not Allowed Device List: (none)
6.Download to: (USB storage)
7.Upload to other devices: (Always Ask) *Important*
---Now to the PS3---
Go into settings and enable media server (Also See Below) then sync the device to the PS3 by checking Nearby Devices.
Depending on the amount of media you have on the Phone this can take a minute or two before it finishes.
Once it's connected you'll see the "SGH-T999/Your Name Here" within the columns labled Video, Pictures, Music.
If your looking for a video under the pictures column on the PS3 it's not going to display it and will tell you their not
there so make sure your under the correct column on the PS3 for what ever your going to stream.
Not sure if this is going to matter to some but my set up is ethernet between the router and the PS3 (Not wireless), the
connection works better and transfers information quicker if your directly connected. I have all of the parental set to off.
***Here's a few other settings you want to check if you have any problems.***
Settings/Video settings: (I'm just going to give you the settings for this so just work your way down the list)
Mine is obviously English so set it appropriately....
1.English

14.Linear PCM
15."Multible Choice"Linear PCM

Crossfade Playback: 2 seconds
Output frequencies: 48kHz
Bitmapping: Type 3
Dynamic Normalizer: ON
PS. I'm not a big thanks hog but I know some people are having a hard time getting this to work, if this helps please hit the button so I know it actually helped someone out there.
If you need more help post in the thread and I'll do the best I can to respond as quick as possible, before anyone asks I dont have a 360 so I can't physically test it but I'm working on a PS Vita method soon. Thanks for reading.1I tried this out, and it's not working for me at all. Anything you might have left out?
EDIT: I believe that I found out why I can't get this to work. My network connection says "uPnP NOT ENABLED" After reading online a little, I guess that my ISP has my router locked down (it's their company provided one). So people, check this setting when you run "TEST CONNECTION" on your PS3. if it's not enabled, you will have to do it manually (if you can log into your router).1
I had to use a app.. it only supports ext sd tho.. but works perfect.

Sounds like you might have removed sharecast or another media app by Samsung, that's the only reason that would happen.
