Stream Photos, Music From Your Android Phone To XBOX 360, PlayStation (PS 3), TV Using iMediaShare


With ever increasing use of DLNA/UPnP compliant media devices, it’s now easy to instantly share media across various media devices. For instance we will now show you how to stream your photos and music stored in your android phone to your XBOX 360, PS3 or any DLNA/UPnP complaint devices.

A handy free android app called “iMediaShare” lets you share Photos and Music To XBOX 360, PlayStation 3. Note that streaming takes place via Wi-Fi network. Hence you need to have Wi-Fi network setup between your Wi-Fi Router and XBOX 360/PS3. Your android device also need to be connected to same WiFi network for successful streaming.
