Samsung SGH-T839HABTMB user manual Configuring AllShare Settings, 134

AllShare

This application wirelessly synchronizes your Samsung mobile phone with your TV, streams content and even keeps tabs on who calls or sends text messages with real-time, on-screen monitoring. Samsung’s AllShare makes staying connected easy.

Allows users to share their in-device media content with other external devices using DLNA certified™ (Digital Living Network Alliance) Devices. These external devices must also be DLNA- compliant. Wi-Fi capability can be provided to TVs via a digital multimedia streamer.

Important!: You must activate Wi-Fi to use this application. For more information, refer to “Wi-Fi settings” on page 181.

1.From the Home screen, tap APPS (Applications) ➔

(AllShare).

2.Follow the on-screen prompts.

The application contains three separate streaming media options:

•Play file from my phone on another player allows you to play local device content on a Wi-Fi capable TV or playback device. The phone can then be used as a remote to control playback.

•Play file from server on my phone allows you to receive and playback media stored externally (server, laptop, etc.) directly on your device.

•Play file from server on another player via my phone allows you to “piggy-back” content playback on an external Wi-Fi TV/receiver. Your phone retrieves content from an external wireless source (eg., server) and pushes it through to an external wireless destination (eg., TV). The phone acts to both route the media and control its playback (as a remote).
