StreamToMe
Play video and music stored on your Mac or PC from your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch.
StreamToMe is an application for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch that plays music and video files (in a wide variety of formats) streamed live from your Mac or PC. If you connect the video-out cable for iPhone/iPod/iPad, StreamToMe can play through your TV, turning your iPhone/iPod/iPad into a wireless home media center.
No converting. No copying. Just tap and it plays.
Browse the files on your Mac from your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. Play them with a single touch.
StreamToMe is available to purchase from the iTunes App Store:

StreamToMe requires a Mac or PC to run the server. See the requirements below.
Once you've purchased StreamToMe and downloaded it to your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, you'll need an Intel Mac or Windows computer running ServeToMe to stream files to it. You can download ServeToMe for free from the ServeToMe product page.
Features:
 |
Files do not need to be pre-converted to an iPhone/iPod/iPad size or format — the ServeToMe application converts the files to an iPhone-friendly format on-the-fly, so a single touch will start playback in as little as 5 seconds. Play, pause or seek through the file as though it were converted and copied onto your iPhone/iPod/iPad. |
 |
Can play a huge range of video and music formats including MP4, AVI, MOV, FLV, MPG, MKV, MP3, AAC, WMA and WMV formats. |
 |
StreamToMe will work at DVD resolutions over local WiFi but can adjust the stream quality automatically to play smoothly from a remote WiFi or 3G location. |
 |
The TV out cable is supported so you can connect your iPhone or iPod Touch to your TV to use your Mac or PC as a wireless streaming media center for your TV. |
| NEW! | New in version 2.0: Thumbnails for movies files, album artwork for music (including while playing), subtitles (SRT files, SSA files, embedded SSA in MKV files, MOV text tracks), continuous and random play modes (instead of single file at a time), sort options including folder flattening (view whole collection at once) and more! |
