Can it stream video to my device (a tablet, for example), both connected to the same network?

This device cannot be put on a network on it's own. You would need to connect it to a Media Server on your network (Ex:PC, Mac, Roku....). You will need appropriate apps on your device to stream content from the Seagate though the Media Server on to your device.

Chromecast will work with the tablet. So you can transmitt videos, youtube, hulu etc from the tablet. to your tv via chromecast.

You can watch sites like YouTube, and download your videos onto the tablet. It will convert some video file types so that they will play on the tablet.

Use this tablet to stream netflix as well. Had no issue streaming as long as the wifi signal was strong.

It should - I've never had any problem streaming any video with this device. If there was ever a problem doing so the adaptor wasn't to blame.

Short answer, yes.That's actually what it's made for and works great. You may also love the DLNA option as well if you have digital media you wish to share over your network.Movies and music can stream strait to your smart TV or any DLNA compatible media player from the NAS.If you have an Android device and plan on storing digital movies on this for network streaming, check out "media house pro"Great combo

As long as the respective ends are able to connect to the tv and tablet. I'm assuming Hdmi to tv and mini Hdmi to tablet. It worked fine when I did it.

I think that they can both workat the same time, however you need to go in and make changes to the IP address. I used my netbook to set up the initial connections and then used my tablet and an IPAD to check to make sure that it was working properly.

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 !!

I have done this with this device. But if you try and pass video that has HDCP in it I was not successful even though they advertise it does work.

No, it is just a tablet. One can only see a video from streaming internet source.

No, but you will need to pay for internet connection separately. This just allows you to share the internet connection among different devices.

Yes: This will work with just about anything that supports DLNA. If you are accessing from outside your network, anticipate that the stream may be slow however. Inside your network, it should be seamless.

I don't believe it is possible because both devices connect via HDMI cables and do not interface

No, it does't. Video streaming is done via a cable to a zone(it has three), or you can stream from pc, phone, tablet to the receiver via network or USB port.

I think you can, but not sure. I have not tried that, but I think it can be done, but will require more than just plugging the devices together. Something about creating a network so you will be able to see both computers.

It'll support the TV it is connected to and 1 other device at a single time. Unfortunately if you are looking, for example, to watch on your computer at the airport while your wife is on her iPhone at the Dr's office, that will not work. One device can stream from the account/ slingbox at a time.
