I just bought the android apps and was excited that finally Ken made the app for android. Unfortunately my excitement didn't last long as I couldn't even connect my phone (samausn s4) to my pc-dvd profiler. It keeps says connecting, but that message lasted for over an hour and nothing happened. I have sharing allowed and all the information correctly entered. What should I do? Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

How do you try to connect? My first suspect would be a firewall (PC and/or Router).

If connecting with "Network-Name" doesn't work, try what happens if you enter the IP-adress of the host (you find it in the bottom-bar of the main-program where it says "Connected to ...").
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I'd try this. For the life of me, I can not get my Galaxy S3 to connect using the network name. But, I have no trouble connecting using the IP address.

Mine wasn't an S3, but same here. Use the IP address.
