Media Share - Another Cool DLNA Feature

Similar to the "Connected Media" feature on the HTC EVO 3D is "Media Share".  This allows you to share the media content of your phone to a DNLA Enabled Device, such as your WiFi connected TV, through your PlayStation 3 PS3 or XBox 360, also to your Windows Media Play on the PC.  Here is the steps of how to use the Media Share feature.


1.  Tap on the "Media Share" app.


2.  Set a "Media Server Name", select the type of files you want to share or the Folder you want to share.  Turn on "Media Share" by check the "Share my media files" checkbox.

3.  Turn on your Internet Enabled TV, or PS3, or XBox 360 etc.  You will see your phone "media server" be listed.  Here is how it looks on my Sony Bravia TV.

Under "Video"

4.  You can then select the file you would like to see by browsing through the folder right on your TV!

Connected Media through your HTC EVO 3D

I was mad at my husband the other day, why?  He highjacked my TV!  OK, not exactly, but as I was watching a TV show, all of a sudden, I saw a picture on the TV and I had no idea why!  Turns out that my husband was playing with his HTC EVO 3D.

To be technical, this is a kind of DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) technology - which allows you to share media contents on DLNA certified devices.

You can do this when you have WiFi connection in the network.   This allows you to easily share your pictures, videos and music from you phone to the TV (or other DLNA certified media devices).  It would be useful when you want to show something from your phone to a bigger audience and you don't want to pass your cool HTC EVO 3D around!
