Why Can't Link Video Via Laptop To HDTV Usb

Apr 16, 2011

I can burn a video file to USB stick and then insert that stick in my new HDTV's usb port, and the television recognises and plays the file. So it seems reasonable that a wireless (perfect) or wired (ok too) connection could be made to stream the content. No?I keep looking at the USB wifi sticks that allow filesharing between laptops and wonder why I couldn't just use a pair of them to link the two devices. But I can find no information out there at all on this.My problem is that movies burned to dvd or usbstick fail to play about half the time via the television usb port or via the blu ray player. "Error, no video file detected". And subtitles are very very dicey. Samsung's firmware (latest updates installed) just doesn't seem to handle files nearly as well as most software based players. VLC player on the laptop (and most players for that matter) play movies without trouble. Included subtitle files always sync up just fine via VLC without any prompting. So I'm looking for a link for watching movies via vlcplayer on my laptop and streaming them to my HDTV or Blu Ray player.

PN50C550 samsung HDTV.
HP 8510w Laptop.
Linux Mint 10 (have already posted in the linux section).

Have HDMI on the laptop and on the TV. Unfortunately, my Nvidia card will not do audio in Linux. A known issue. I've posted in the linux section to no avail.I also am having difficulties running samsung's shareware utilities in linux.Laptop has ethernet, 1394a (firewire), vga, usb, and hdmi ports.HDTV has ethernet, vga (hd-15), usb, hdmi, but no 1394a.Blu Ray player has ethernet (now occupied to router) and usb port on front panel and HDMI (now occupied to HDTV)

Cannot Clone Laptop To HDTV Via Wireless Hdmi

Mar 17, 2013

i am connecting my laptop pc to my hdtv via a wireless gizmo. the gizmo has a dongle transmitter connected to the pc via the hdmi port and the usb port for power, on the receiver hdtv end the receiver box connects to the hdtv through the hdtv hdmi port and to the a/c power on the wall, all this is to replace a hdmi to hdmi cable connection. i hope i,m clear so far. now i want to clone my pc screen to my hdtv screen i.e. i want to see the exact same image or video on both my pc screen and on my hdtv screen and here lies my problem, as i stated in my original post, i am unable to do so using the fn/f8 keys or the microsoft key/p options i have on my pc keyboard. using these keys i can see a video on either the pc laptop screen or on the hdtv screen but not on both at the same time which is what cloning or duplicating means? the internet posts related to this issue recommend using my nvidia control panel to achieve cloning, i have also tried that approach with no sucess because when i go there, i do not have choice for cloning, it seems it doesnt recognize or detect a second monitor?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Ethernet Wired To HDTV NetFlix Streaming Drops

Feb 9, 2012

I have a DIR-655 that's wired via 40' of Cat5 Ethernet cable to a bus near my Sony HDTV. I get great reception and speed and all the available HD channels via my Time Warner Cable subscription.

My problem is that since subscribing to NetFlix (streaming only) when I stream a NetFlix movie I get "reloading/pauses" every few minutes. NetFlix says it requires 1.5 Mbps but Internet speed tests show I'm consistently getting between 5 and 10 Mbps.

I also have a Sony 3D DVD Player that is NetFlix enabled and when the pausing gets too bad I switch to it and sometimes it works, at other times it pauses just as frequently as the TV.

I always turn the PC off when watching TV.

HP Laptop DV2815EA - Wireless Adapter Cuts Out During Streaming Video

Sep 6, 2012

My computer is a HP Laptop Model Number DV2815EA running windows vista 32 bit. Its a few years old. Recently i have had problems with my wireless adapter turning itself off whenever i watch videos online. It doesn't happen all the time, but if i am watching something for more than an hour it will cut off. There is a blue light and a switch on the front of the laptop, and when the wireless adapter is off, the light changes to red.

The light will change to red sometimes whilst watching video, and the only way i can turn the wireless back on is if i restart the system. Even if i activate and disable the wireless adapter using the external manual switch, or the internal controls using the wireless assistant. Also, not sure if this is relevant but i can no longer either watch videos on full screen as the image gets jolty.

Things i have tried:

1) restoring the system to a previous restore point - i tried this but for some reason the only restore points i could find were ones dated after i started noticing the problem.

2) reinstalling the wireless adapter driver and video card driver.

3) running a full 6 hour antivirus scan - I am using Eset NOD32 antivirus and also i scanned using comodo cleaning essentials.

Laptop Dell Inspiron 1440 Disconnects When Play Video Games?

May 31, 2012

Every time I play League of Legends, Rumble fighter, or Maplestory, about 20-30 minutes into the game, my laptop disconnects from my router. Then, when I try to reconnect, the router connection thing magically disappears from the settings. This forces me to restart my laptop. When I DO restart my laptop, the connection is there again. Everything is fine when I surf the web.

D-Link DCS-942L :: Video Clip Notification (MP4 Instead Of AVI)?

Feb 11, 2012

Can the DCS-942L be configured to send the "Video Clip Notification" email video attachments as MP4 as opposed to AVI?  The iPhone can not play AVI files, so I'm forced to use the snapshot feature which misses a lot of the motion.  I have a Linksys WVC80N that allows me to send video email attachments in MP4 format that works great, but I would like to have this ability on my two D-link DCS-942L cameras as well.  If there is no way to send MP4 video email attachments... is this something that could be added as part of a firmware upgrade?

D-Link DCS-930L :: No Video From Motion Detection?

Apr 2, 2011

First of all, I've purchased a couple of Wifi cameras in the past, and they've always been missing something important (i.e. just returned a Cisco camera because it didn't support WPA2-AES).

So I was thrilled when I first received the DCS-930L - it was sleek, wireless setup was easy, and mydlink.com is slick as well.

But I'm afraid I've found the fatal flaw. I purchased this camera for one reason only - to figure out how mice are getting into my basement! I set up the camera where I suspect they're coming in, set up motion detection (via ftp), and then walked in front of the camera to test it.

To my surprise,  I checked the FTP folder and found dozens of STILL images! What I really need is a video file. Is there NO way to configure the camera to capture video (not still images) when motion is detected? This seems like a huge gap. The Cisco camera I returned could do this.

If it can't do this, can it can be configured to record the last X hours to a shared drive somewhere, so I can at least go back and look at recorded video?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Video / Streaming (NetFlix) Priority On It

Feb 21, 2011

I am about to buy a NMP (WD Live Hub) to put my local video/music/pic content on and drive many TVs in my house.  These NMP also have services like Hulu, NetFlix, etc.  I plan to sign-up for NetFlix and do the unlimited streaming thing via the WD Hub.  I have a 5Mbps broadband pipe which is right at the suggested level for HD streams.....but I think the DIR-655 can prioritize streams/video ?

plan to put the Hub on Static (Reserved) IP address on my network....however, I've never messed with a Router and prioritization.  I assume it is something to do with the port(s) used, etc.  I have no idea the ports that will be used by the Hub for NetFlix, how/where in the DIR-655 I can accomplish this how to ID the ports used would be great....eg. some variant of Netstat command, etc ?

D-Link :: DIR 615 - Live Streaming Video On Websites

Apr 13, 2013

i've lost the ability to view live streaming video (adobe flash, i think) on several websites.  it happened gradually over several weeks and now videos will not load.  the dir-615 has functioned flawlessly over several years but it might be showing its age now.  connecting directly to my com cast broadband modem fixes the problem.  can i tweak the router settings or do i need to replace it?

my setup:  dir-615,  H/W Ver. E1,  F/W Ver. 5.00NA,  two wired connections to X Box's and one to Win 7 PC.  wireless connections to several Win 7 laptops and other tablets/phones.   com cast high speed broadband with their Norton security suite.

if replace.....i need a recommendation.  the best bang for a buck while staying within a tight budget.

D-Link DCS Network Camera :: 920 Unable To Stream Video

Jun 17, 2010

I recently bought 3 DCS-920 to monitor my home while at the office. However I can't seem to get the damned things to stream video using the dyndns service. I linked my router to the dyndns account and host service. I portforward the ports my cameras are assigned. Up to this point its all good, I can access the cameras and their settings pages while outside. However both the Java and ActiveX options for video streaming do not work. Even within the network, using their raw IPs to view the cameras the videos stream works.But putting in the hostname and port they are assigned brings up the camera page, but no video.I can only assume the ports the video and audio run on are seperate, as when I put one camera's IP in the DMZ host on my router, it works with the DNS. Unforunately I can only do that with 1, and I'd rather not do that at all.

D-Link DIR-855 Router - Video Streams Faster When Using Proxy

Aug 8, 2012

So i'm behind a fiber 100mbit connection, and for the past few weeks i've been noticing overall slowness on everything video related, from youtube to any kind of stream using flash video.If I try to watch a video on youtube it will constantly buffer, the same with stuff like ustream and the like.

The odd thing is that I have VPN service that I use to avoid regional restrictions, and when I use it to stream anything, then all the videos and streams are silky smooth and load pretty quickly which is odd since It should work on reverse. Also, a speed test through the proxy gives me no more than 10mbit, while without the proxy I get 95+mbit.

Is it something with the router? I've never heard of the ISP throttling stuff.Like I said, everything works perfectly, except video streams. I can max out torrents at more than 10 MB/s.The router im using is a D-link dir-855 (provided by my isp). I head about disabling QoS.

D-Link DCS-930L :: Changed Port Number Now Cannot Access Video?

Nov 26, 2011

With basic "Wizard" setup I got DHCP and port 80 for the camera.  It was working just fine with MyDLink and locally with DLink-ViewCam software and some local test web pages. However, we have a wireless printer on that router which also uses port 80, so when it was installed we set up a "port forward" for port 80 traffic to it for administration from other subnets.  How MyDLink website is able to tunnel through our hardware firewall and the wireless routers firewall to  communicate with the camera is not clear to me (perhaps someone can send me a link to an explanation??), but it works...Thus, to allow access to the camera from other subents, I wanted to change the camera's port from 80 to another, say 8181 and set up the appropriate "port forwarding for TCP and UDP.  All of the steps below were from a PC within the camera's subnet/router so port forwarding is not an issue

D-Link DCS-930L :: Mjpg Video Stream Or Sequence Of Jpg Images

Sep 14, 2011

When accessing the camera on mydlink, or on a browser using http://x.x.x.x/mjpg.cgi, I would expect the net bit rate to be substantially less than for a sequence of jpg's, since true motion-jpg uses a lossy form of intraframe compression typically yielding a 20:1 data reduction (according to wikipedia). Indeed, I can readily see this reduction in mjpg clips made on my Canon S5is camera. It's not clear whether that is happening with the d-link DCS-930L camera (640x480, quality "high", java).

D-Link DCS-930L :: Unable To View Video On Android Device

Aug 7, 2011

Setup my DCS-930L for DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) so I can access the DCS-930L via the Internet (couldn't access the camera half the the time while on vacation using mydlink) and can now access the camera using my laptop, Android Thrive, and Motorola Droid 3 via the URL I've created but can only see the video when using the laptop.

I have the DCS-930L set to Java but when I log into the camera with the Thrive or Droid 3 (both Android devices) I don't get video. I can make changes to the camera settings and everything else you can do when logged into the camera but just can't see the video. If I change the 'View Mode' in the video setup to 'Image', I will get a picture on all three devices (Thrive, Droid 3, and laptop).What do I need on the Droid 3 & Thrive so I can see the video when I log into the DCS-930L with an Android device?

D-Link DIR-825 :: Why Is Network Doubling Or Tripling Bitrate On Video Streams

Aug 26, 2011

I am currently wirelessly streaming BR rip movies from my PC tower to a PS3.  I have a gigabit connection from the PC to the router (D-Link DIR-825) which is broadcasting (5Ghz 'N') to a D-Link DAP-1522 bridge.  Gigabit connection from the bridge to the PS3.  The router is reporting a 70-75% connection with 240mbps, although I am realistic and don't expect that. I had been ripping and compressing my BR movies to 4-8GB.  I had never noticed any trouble with these because my network can easily handle the additional traffic if it had been doubling or tripling these.  I recently purchased a 2TB HDD and decided to just rip and not compress a few of my favorites.  So now instead of a 3-10Mbps stream I have 15-45Mbps streams.  I am ripping them straight to an .m2ts container (AVC/AC3) when the original video codec is AVC and converting to .mp4 (AVC/AAC) with Ripbot if the original codec is VC-1.  Neither container makes a difference.

What's happening is that when I stream these uncompressed BRs, the picture and audio stutter and jump (indicating a bit-starved network connection).  When I check the bitrate reported by the PS3, it is showing 80-150Mbps.  I have run these video files through Bitrate Viewer just to be sure, and they are all running at normal bitrates, i.e. <50Mbps.  Somewhere along the line, my network is doubling or tripling the stream. I have used both Mezzmo and TVersity as my DLNA servers with the transcoding turned off.  The files playback fine at the expected bitrates on the PC with VLC Media Player.

Also, the problem is not with the wireless bridge.  I was linked with a Linksys WET610N, while working on this problem, I attempted to update the firmware and bricked it.  If anyone needs a DOA WET610N, they can have it for the cost of shipping.  The DAP-1522 is getting a better signal and reporting a higher bitrate ceiling than the Linksys was.Is there a PC or router setting that could be causing this?  I have even done a reset to restore the factory defaults on my router, but it hasn't made a difference.
