</div></div> I have something like that for my Android phone. It allows me to connect<br>
the phone to the backend just fine. I can browse stuff quite nicely. I just<br>
can't play anything.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Samsung Captivate is an android phone. The reason I can't play anything (and probably you too) is the video size/type. I just listed that in case it triggered something for the poster that was having issue with a Samsung TV. "Allshare" is a Samsung app. It may be on the TV. I don't really know. I know that with it my captivate can 'see' the mythbackend and stream audio, view photos, and presumably video if I had any device-compatible video in myth.</div>
