Can you stream NAS video's to this. I use my phone to connect to NAS, open the video, then push it to the devices. Will this work?

This product has no issue connecting to devices that have Miracast capabilities. There are many names for Miracast through different manufacturers, so please be sure your device supports it first: http://blog.uvm.edu/jgm/2013/10/22/miracast-the-technology-with-100-names/ I guess this really depends on your phone and your NAS. If your NAS is already setup to stream content to accessible devices, and your phone allows for accessing as well as simultaneously pushing said content to other devices, I would imagine so. However, maybe I am misunderstanding your intent. For example, I am imagining you are accessing the NAS via phone and pulling up video content. You are then setting up your TV to use the Miracast dongle to display the video on the TV from your phone. In theory, this could work. Yet, I have never seen any articles suggesting this and would be curious to know... There are two other methods that may work if the above example is what you are trying to accomplish: 1) Drop the middleman (your phone), and just use your computer and the TV. There are programs like Mezzmo that can send your content wirelessly to your TV (of course, your TV then needs a WiFi adapter). 2) Try directly connecting your NAS to your TV via USB (in this case your TV will need to have a USB port, and there is a possibility of the TV not recognizing the device). Best of luck.

It's just a streamer for your storage. If your device can play .mov files, you should be fine.

I think you misunderstand how the MediaLink works. The device is really nothing but a substitute for a video cable in the end. There still needs to be a device that produces the video, I.e. your cellphone. And that cellphone will need an internet connection if it's to show a streaming video.

If I am playing any video on my PC .... I just do a screen to screen ( whatever is viewing on my PC will be showed on TV ... my Samasung Galaxy, my Laptop .... anything.... or you must change the device to DLNA I believe and it will stream just about anything !!

Yes it can with an app to allow you to connect to DLNA streaming devices (such as this Synology box), your only concern will be the amount of bandwidth to provide a quality stream.

If you plug in any drive or add to nas it would work. Make sure all drives are same speed but I wouldn't. It's not a good idea. Use internal drives for nas

It depends on what you want to do. To work on the device itself, the device own RAV FileHUB seemed to do the job pretty well even for watching videos. Essentially, it work like your average local network file server so anything that supports that should work. I use File Browser and GoodReader but have only really use RAV FileHUB on it. Where available, I would prefer to connect the storage devices directly to my computer and only uses the device when on the move.

Not sure about that. All my devices (PCs, phones, tablets) see this NAS as a DLNA server. I don't know if the Roku can do that.

If your phone happens to have a mirco HDMI port then you can connect it to that. It did put my Android phone into disk drive mode when I plugged into the USB port but was unable to find any of the videos or pictures I have on my SD card.

No you can not do it. I just tried to see if it can work because I have the same PC setup as you and the router doesn't see the network created by the SD card. I can only see the network with my phone and tablet.

From what I have read it should. I have the Sony media running on it now. Sorry I haven't had the nas type on it yet.

All I can say, B.R., is that ours is streaming beautifully via our home WiFi network so, I don't see why not.Via USB stick...it plays .mp4s perfectly. I haven't tried any of the other formats.The wife and I are very happy with it. :-)

Yes it will. I'm not sure about brand of nas. For me, I have it connected to a Windows smb file share and it works great. It can be connected to smb, nfs and ftp for remote storage.

This speaker supports DLNA protocol but not robust. It is a hit and missed so it is not guarantee that it would detect your NAS. If it detects your NAS and your NAS is also DLNA compliance, you will be able to stream music from the NAS to this speaker. I have 5 different NAS devices and only two were detected. The Sony does a much better job at this. Sony is even better as it is also Airplay, BT, DLNA and also has more music services.I tend to use the Sony more than this device due to compatibility and better speaker.

Dear Marc:I have never tried to stream with my Micca - i have bought 3 of them. I put a 2TB HD in them and use them to store media. Sorry really can't help you on that one. I use an APPLE for streaming.

My understanding of your question is that you want to connect and external HD to the NAS usb port. I believe it should be possible and then use the one touch button to transfer. I believe the negative maybe speed of transfer
