DLNA with PlayOn, Orblive, Tversity or any DLNA server

Its interesting that the DLNA server will not play using any of these types of servers (when or if it detects them). One of the main reasons I purchased this device was because I thought it would connect like an Archos Internet tablet or similar.

 

[Correction] After doing a full reset (to try and fix the "My Verizon" not updating) its detecting and able to browse some of the servers, it just wont play anything. I wonder if flash is the issue.

 

After trying the different options for ORB

 

Orb Flash Player
Open in a new window

Windows Media Format (.asx) *
3GP Format (.sdp)
Winamp Format (.pls)

 

I get the "The media file cannot be played" [/Correction]

 

It doesn't browse directories well and plays no video (no matter the codec). I hope future updates will resolve this. It would be nice to use this device like a multimedia device similar to iPhone with airvideo or orblive.

 

I've tried these DLNA or UPnP server packages

 

Wild Media Server (UPnP, DLNA, HTTP)

TVMOBiLi

PlayOn

Mezzmo

Serviio

iSedora Media Server

Orb

TwonkyMedia Server

Hi,

 

I work for Conceiva, the company that makes Mezzmo and we'll be happy to create a device profile for the Droid X and get the phone working properly with Mezzmo.

 

Please send a message to support (at) conceiva (dot) com to get started.
