      var jsonS = JSON.stringify(data); 
      jQuery.ajax({ 
          type: "GET", 
          data: {type: "stream", namef: jsonS }, 
          url: 'catch.php', 



        success: function (msg)

dataString = friendMediaArray; // array?

If your data is an array, you really should not name it something with "string"!

var jsonString = JSON.stringify(dataString);

Now, your jsonString is a real string, and 

jsonString[field.name] = field.value;

will result in nothing. You can't set properties of primitive string values. Instead, you will need to set them as properties of object, which you then can serialize:

$(function() {
   $("#xbut").click(function() {
      var data = {};
      data.dataArray = friendMediaArray; // I'm setting it as a property here
      $.each($(':input').serializeArray(), function(i,field){
           data[field.name] = field.value; 
      });
      var jsonString = JSON.stringify(data);
      jQuery.ajax({
          type: "GET",
          data: {type: "stream", namef: jsonString },
          ...
      });
   });
});

Also note that when you send your data with GET as url parameters, $_POST will obviously be empty. Yet, json_decode($_GET['namef']); should give you the object you wanted.

You are using type: "GET", try:

var_dump($_GET);
