VLC for PDAs? To receive TV-Streams? - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

Hi,
I am used to receive TV Transport or Program Streams via ethernet or WiFi from every computer in my home from my satellite receiver.
Has anyone here heard of a solution for pdas?
OK, OK vncview via a WinDOOFs-computer would do - but...
Any idea?
THX in advance

tcpmp can play webstreams, it can open some files which have urls hashed, check out the programfeatures for which ones exactly. I've played a couple of webstream in the past with it.

wouldn't mind seeing a ppc version of vlc though. Nice to see some competition.

How about winmediaencoder(PC) + winmediaplayer(PPC)

Videolan is better you can find it on www.videolan.org
Note: for windows media encoder you will have to have a propper hardware for doing brodcast.
kind regards

Hi,
It seems that I am pretty stupid. I couldn't manage to get vlc working BUT Pocket Streamer Pro work without problems from the start.
I was thinking that the hardware of my S100 couldn't support vlc because the video stream started but stopped after a few seconds but if it work with Pocket Streamer Pro, I don't know.
Some advice please ?
Thanks

does real player really works?

hi
can anyone play this file with real player ppc?
http://www.radio.rai.it/live/radio1.ram
on pc, it plays
on ppc (xda/mdaII) no
why? thanks!!
official link:
http://www.realnetworks.com/industries/mobile/operators/products/player/ppc/
Its a stream from the net so it should work.. but listening to the radio via the net on your PPC would probably run up some hefty GPRS bills.
Its in .ram format, so it should work fine as long as your GPRS is connected.
thanks for your reply
the rai link provided it's only a 33kbit audio file
the following file is only 20kbit:
http://www.radio.rai.it/live/radio1.ram
when opening a ram or rm file it always tell me:
"Response or data from server timed out"
i've search a solution on this page, but without success:

thanks for any help! ;-P
I've tried many times and many links to listend and see streamed media via Real One,also with newer version.
Only 2 of 25 i've tried worked.
In fact,I don't know why they do not work.
Saluti
thank you ;-P
is your error alway the same?
thanks!
i think it depens from the pocket pc version
on real site they always write "ppc 2002)...
any other suggest?
can anyone help me please?
this page works on pc:
http://www.realnetworks.com/mobile/pocketpc/usa/entertainment_movies.html
but on my xda/mdaII not
the error is always the same:
"Response or data from server timed out"
on the official real player web site they invite customers to try their page!
http://service.real.com/test
but NO demo play with windows mobile 2003...
how it's possibile that REAL didn't try it's most famous software on the last windows mobile?
uhm...
I contacted Real about this a while ago, and they seem pretty clueless.
As you mentioned, none of their test files work, yet their response seemed to deny any problem on their end, to the effect of saying "some streams may not be compatible, contact the source of the stream".
Just plain useless if you ask me.
Now if only Radio4's listen again site did windows media (which works, er, 40% of the time)...
Incidentally, did you know Auntie Beeb is planning on a video service for their TV programmes? High quality 320x240 optimised encodings of their past week's programmes (ideal for PocketPC, in fact they've given a lot of PPC devices to their staff to test). Could be fantastic.
thanks for your reply
any other suggest?
how it's possible that no one have my problem?
real player really doesn't work on windows mobile 2003?
it' a big BUG!!!
It could be 2 things afaik
1 realplayer doesn't like nat. It needs to open aa connection back to the mobile device to send the data. The device opens a control channel, and the streaming server opens a streaming data connection. Why does it work on the pc? either the pc has a non natted public ip address, or the player falls back to streaming via the control channel, this isn't happening on the ppc player.
2 ppc realplayer doesn't like http streams and only supports rtsp streams
thank you for yout technical reply
i can only reply on point 2:
the links provided (rai) directyl redirect to rtsp streams files
if you watch the clip info during the first loading, real player ppc show the correct rstp location
i'll try with ppc2002
last year it worked with wifi connection
always seems ok (configuration & requirements):

but it doesn't work
damn real! :twisted:
i've compliled a support form on real web site, let's wait for their reply..
Its got to be a problem with REAL, as every stream ive tried in windows media player always seems to work.
I didnt manage to get any of those test streams to work.
yes!
with microsoft media player almost all files play in streaming!
Just found buried in O2's website:
Question 5:
Can I use Realplayer with Xda?
Answer:
Yes - all content stored on Xda will be usable. You are not able to stream Real content using O2 MobileWeb at this time.

So I guess they block the necessary ports. No idea why they would want to, but it's their network after all.

For future reference, please ensure to replace !!! with ??? in subject lines that request information rather than provide information in order not to raise people's hopes up :lol: That will also ensure that you don't get your hopes up when you see a reply to find out that it doesn't provide any information because of the people who clicked your message were under the impression that you had some cool news :twisted:
yeah you fool!
Dont screw up the subject line.
TV Tuner is not there in your phone or that matter any of ours and never will be.
You maybe able to see streaming TV over GPRS if you're ready to pay exhorbitant GPRS rates for the same.
Use SnapStream's BeyondTV and you can stream live TV from your PC's TV tuner to your Pocket PC. I did that with my PDA2k, I'll do it again with my JAM.
With BeyondTV, you can surf right to your home PC's BeyondTV Web Server to play back any recorded shows or watch live TV using Pocket Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player.

Windows Media Center
Hi,
I use my windows Media Center to record all tv shows that i like (as i have little time to watch wat i realy like). After mce has recorded this to disk you can tell your media player on the pc to sync all recorded tv from the last 5 days to your magician. This way i always have my fav. tv with me when i am on the train.
Greets.
Marco
Ps; you will need an SD card for this as 1h of tv is about 100Mb when Mediaplayer converts it for the magician.

How do I stream video and audio?

I have the TyTN and would like to stream video and audio but suspect I need a program designed to do that (?) I have pocketv and tcpmp -- can someone tell me what I need to do?
Thanks!
I am using a slingbox and their wm5 player. This will allow you to watch live TV or any other video source connected to the slingbox.
the cost is about 150 for the box and 30 for the software, but it is awesome!
I can watch live tv (and able to change the channel) on the train ride home.

Hi
Also you can give ORB a try. ORB is free and it works fine for me.
www.orb.com

Daniel
The the free version at http://www.umediaserver.net/.
It's very good and with a fixed IP you can watch and change TV channels anywhere.

can u elaborate on how this exactly works and what i need to do before i go screwing up my tytn. thanks!!!
You register at www.orb.com and configure your computer with the program/webpage. Then point Pocket IE to www.orb.com and use it. It's very basic and easy, and doesn't harm your TyTN.
I tried to set up a stream on my LAN using VLC. Other computers may view and hear the stream using WMP, but Pocket WMP refuses to play it because "The parameter was not set correctly" (or something like that). Anyone know what's wrong?
With Unreal Media Server server you need a tv card in your pc.
I have an old Pinnacle RAVE TV card in my PC. I've installed Umedia server on my PC and set this up to capture and stream the tv card. I can watch decent quality TV from anywhere in the house using the free Umedia player. I also have a fixed IP address from my ISP. Having unblocked the relevant firewall port, I can also watch TV via 3G connection, albiet at reduced quality because of the lower bandwidth available.
There is a PC and Pocket PC client player available from http://www.umediaserver.net/download.html. The Pocket PC client is all that is needed on your TyTN.
This is a useful document http://www.umediaserver.net/StreamingAdvices.pdf. HTML version available at http://www.umediaserver.net/source.html.

Streaming Media From PC

Is it possible to stream videos/images/music from your PC to your diamond in a similar way the Xbox 360 does.
The Xbox uses the windows shared folders to pass data over the WI-FI network connection. It would be great to sit in an other room in the house and listen to my full MP3 libary on my PC through my diamond.
Is this possible? I have searched the forum and haven't seen anything else like this, sorry if I missed it.
Thanks.
you can try the new 'Orb 2.0' or the 'WinAmp Remote' programs and they wrok fine, you have to sign on thru the website, and you;; be able to access it that way, i tried it but it was sorta choppy and slow.... If anyone knows a better way to do so, please let me know. I have a HP Media Vault and would love to know if anyone knows a way to stream directly from there, and not have to bypass it thru my PC. Any help would be appreciated. Hope that helps, OP!!!!
yeah, you can do it with coreplayer
Orb's good, I stream video and audio through it, works well
Orb + codecs installed = Fluent video, no lag
how did you make it to play the videos with orb?
my opera browser always quits working when i try to play a video from orb...
I use HTC Network Tool to access my shared files from my computer on my phone over WIFI Network and then use tcpmp to listen to music, watch video's, view photo's, read documents.... works pretty good for me on HTC Touch Elfin
