Recently, I have found a solution about how to stream video from pc to phone. i I think it's time for me to make contribution to this forum. So I will show you how to set up it detailedly. Hope this can help you.

1. Share your movie folder
The movie folder: right-click -> ’Properties’ -> ‘Sharing Tab’

2. Connect VidOn Player to Your PC
Download VidOn Player to your mobile device.

Make sure your PC and Mobile device are in the same LAN
Run App, click to open ‘Home Network Share’, then click ‘+’ icon.

Enter your IP address, PC’s user name & Password –> Click ‘√’
If your computer does not require user name & Password to login, then choice ‘login anonymously’

3. Enjoy HD Movies
Select the Server which you just added to browse.
To Play ‘The Hunger Game’, just select the filename.

Now, enjoy HD movie on your mobile device.:D

Thanks for sharing. But why i can't choose login anonymously?:confused:

The new version of the player dosen't has the login anonymously menu. Just click the ‘√’ and done.
But you must open the guest account on your pc first. It's a little complex. So recommend you set up a user name and password for your pc. This way is more convenient.:rolleyes:
