you have to root your phone in order to stream video.

THank you!! Can u recommend a service ?? I guess i will have to google.. Thanks!
depends on your phone. you will have to go to xda developers and search for your phone and see what the instructions are. each phone is different but xda developers have covered pretty much every android phone on the market. dont forget to back up your phone since rooting it will also wipe it. once rooted you can download an app that allows you to stream video. not sure which one, but there are a few. it also allows youtube as well if you wanted youtube video.

some phones are easier than others. i have a oneplus and they have always been root friendly. i believe the google phones as well. some like the motorola and off brands like huwaii and other cheaper chinese brands are a little more difficult to do.
