Any video files of decent quality are completely unwatchable. The app stutters and crashes. Useless.
When Rey playing an mp3 from my dlna server it crashes...
Cool skins etc, but it has trouble finding my server and frequently crashes and stops playing video. It needs to fix its problems before I will pay for it.
Bedt dlna for ios by far. Works well on my iphone, very nice interface and background play. I did not get any problem with the app.
I tried 4 different video formats ( all of which play fine on my PC and on my WD Live Media Plus) using a Mezzmo server. Used the Maria profile. All formats required transcoding and so were not readily playable. The reality is videos must be in IPod/IPad officially supported format to work immediately. My library is mostly not in those formats and transcoding on the fly is too slow.
This app works well and has a great interface and options,also can wirelessly transfer videos into the 8player app from other apps such as downloads lite.
Updated to the pro version. Am glad I did. Use it every day.
It never found one of my drives (which had my training videos that I wanted to use) When I finally gave up and moved them, this program forced me to pay $5.99 to ever use it again. I found iMedia player works much better, smother and free
Wont let me play any files ...asks me to upgrade. No thanks
Too bad. Looks like it would have been a good app if it could.
Decoder not available for most common formats. Uninstalling.
Not much to say after that. Description is not accurate. Used to play avi but not anymore. Same on the paid version.
This app looked like one of the most promising DLNA apps Ive downloaded to date, then I go to play any one of my m2ts or mkv files and boom I cant play it because they dont have the rights to play.... Well pretty much anything! The only thing you can play is mp4 and .mov . So if you wanna play anything other than those then youll be out of luck! My suggestion is they need to remove the all the file formats they "say" it plays until it plays it.
Seems to be the right version, 2.10, play all my avi and mkv files. Please keep it like that, and if you low down the price a bit, Ill buy it.
Ive been looking for JUST this kind of simple easy to use app that streams my NAS saved movies, pictures and music. in the 15 min of testing it it played 95% of my media without problems. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is two of my movies had Bad pixillation and intermittent sound. Ive tried apps such as : VLC, PlayerXtreme, Oplayer, MLPlayer, Movie player and more....-ll of these were very disappointing. none of these apps compares to -- 8Player -- 8Player -- 8even the lite version. I will be upgrading to the paid app for sure !
I spent $100 upgrading my wireless network in my house thinking it was my network that was the issue. I have perfect signal in every nick and cranny in my house and this app still constantly has issues streaming a movie off my PC. I downloaded Airplay and everything is perfect. I am now stuck with $100 of equipment I really dont need. My network was fine, the app just doesnt buffer at all, or stream properly.
Im watching hd movies (1080p would be a little bit painful to load) shared on my win8 desktop pc.
This app is easy to use and works seamlessly with my plex server on a Ubuntu machine! For anyone that wants to watch media on the mobile device, this is the app!
I can stream from my RPI to any device including ipad and iPhone. Thanks!
