Play To arrives to Lumia phones with Windows Phone 8

Nokia has announced that a beta trial of its DLNA streaming app Play To will be available for Windows Phone 8-powered Nokia devices.

Like other such streaming apps, Play To lets you wirelessly share photos, music, and videos to DLNA-enabled devices, including TV’s and receivers.

This is not the first time Play To has been released for Windows Phone, as there is a version for WP7-based Lumia’s with the same basic functionality.

Currently, the Play To beta for WP8 is not able to work as a digital media server, which means that it is not compatible with the PS3, although they do plan to introduce compatibility in a future release. Music streaming is also limited to content which is stored on the device.
